'Paris, June 28.

After a two and a half hour conference at the French Foreign Office tonight, the Big Three Foreign Ministers adjourned their conference on the Marshall "save Europe" plán until Monday afternoon..·.

The Soviet delegation was looking straight ahead. somewhat grimly when they left the confer- ence, headed by M. Molotov, Soviet Foreign Minister, who had been smiling broadly when he arrived for the second of the talks today.

IRON CURTAIN GETS

AMERICAN GOAT

Washington, June 28.

A storm of protest against the "iron curtain" of secrecy behind which the Parls conversations on the Marshall plan are proceeding was rais- ed on the front page of American newspapers today. Responsibility for the news blackout Is variously attributed to the Soviet and Bri- tish Foreign Ministers by Indignant corres- pondents. Mr. Paul Ward, of the "Baltimore Sun," bluntly attacks Mr. Bevin, suggesting that he is taking advantage of the absence of a United States delegation to abandon the policy of open diplomacy to which the United States Govern- ment is committed and to revert to a policy of secrecy which Mr. Bevin is alleged to believe to be more conducive to successful diploma- tic bargaining and manoeuvre,
