On the eve of his departure for the Big Four con
forence in Paris, the U,S. Secretary of State, Mr. Dean Acheson, said that he will not barter away to Russia any successes already scored by the West in rebuilding, a democratic Germany. He warned the American people against the luxury ' of either undue pessimism or premature optim- ism as to the outcome of the new East-West talks. No one can tell whether the Paris meet- ing will succeed or fail, he said.
