EISENHOWER'S POSITION
Need For Unifying
Western
Opinion
Washington, June 15.
Some diplomatic observers here believed that President Eisenhower will have little choice at Bermuda but to associate the United States with an attempt at a four-power conference to settle cold war issues.
According to these observers an intransigeant attitude on the part of President Eisenhower would be unlikely in view of present European opinion to erase the possibility of a splintering of the Western alliance which was created to pre- sent a solid Western front against Communist aggression.
Communist political skill in exploiting the Krem- lin's "peace" campaign is given due credit for creating the dilemma which appears to be fixing itself upon the White House. But some diplomats believe that un- certainty about foreign policy objectives within the United States has also served the Communist purposes.
