The Western Powers told Russia today that there was "no useful purpose” in continuing the four-month long discussion by the Foreign Minis- ters' deputies here.
This statement was made in a declaration read by Mr Ernest Davies (Britain) at today's 74th meeting.
The Western statement added that the Western Powers main- lained the invitation to the Soviet Union to attend a Foreign Ministers' meeting,
