Ike Asks Zhukov For Acceptance of NATO
At the Big Four summit in Geneva President Eisenhower appealed directly to Soviet Defense Minister Georgi Zhukov to accept NATO and aid German unification. An informed source said Eisenhower assured Soviet Premier Bulganin the U S would only fight if attacked. The closed session lasted 2 hours 40 minutes and discussed Germany as a top topic. The Russians proposed continuing talks on the German problem while Western leaders emphasized NATO as a peace agency.

West pressures fail to win quick German unification
At Geneva, Western leaders urged Bulganin to back immediate German unification within the North Atlantic Alliance. He prioritized European security over Germany, signaling no major Soviet policy shift. Despite hopes, officials say Moscow remains unwilling to cut its hold in Europe, though atomic material offered to the international pool pleased Eisenhower and allies.

Nehru Says Conference May Include China Reds
Indian premier Nehru announced that an international conference with Communist China may be held after the Geneva summit to discuss Far Eastern issues. He noted no dates or locations and that the Big Four could only hold initial talks in Geneva without China at the table. He said informal approaches might lead to a later meeting, with Menon possibly returning to Washington to pursue U.S. Red China negotiations on Formosa. Meanwhile, Lawrence experienced a period of rain after a long dry spell, with scattered showers across areas including Overland Park and Kansas City.

Demos Ready Drive For Passage of Bill To Boost Wage Level
Democrats push House action to raise the federal minimum wage from 73 cents to 1.54 an hour amid Senate approval of a $1 target and Eisenhower’s 90 cent proposal. The plan would affect about 2.1 million workers, many in the South, with most already earning $1 or more. Labor seeks $1.25, but no House move is planned now. The current bill excludes broader coverage to be addressed next year.
