Eisenhower Says Peace Talks Possible After Paris Pact
President Eisenhower indicated exploratory talks could be held after ratification of the Paris agreements, aimed at a summit meeting only if the Russians show they mean business. He warned against conferences that could serve Communist propaganda and stressed travel limits for a summit. He signaled no great difference with Senator George on pursuing world peace and emphasized concrete Russian acts over words. He also spoke on cease-fire prospects, foreign trade tariffs, and the role of atomic weapons in police actions versus full-scale war.
