PRESS COMMENT IN BRITAIN
Soviet Insistence On Role Of China
(Rec. 8 p.m.) LONDON, August 6. The “Daily Telegraph” in a leading article commenting on the Russian Note on the Four-Power talks says: “If the Russians really press the view that a conference called primarily to deal with Germany and Austria must include representatives of Communist China it is extremely improbable it will be held at all”
The “News Chronicle” says: “With the best will in the world it is difficult not to feel that there was an implacable air about the Russian determination to shelve once again the overdue Austrian peace treaty, to drag in American foreign bases, and to argue in this context the question of Communist China’s future role.”
“The Times” says: “Very little change in Russian policy is apparent. If anything it is a shade disappointing.” The “Daily Herald” says: “Russia is not unreasonable in wanting to bring in other subjects besides Germany, but the Russian suggestion that China be invited is very far from helpful.”
