ALLIES TO PURSUE PLANS FOR WEST GERMAN TREATIES

London, May 5.

The Foreign Secretary, Mr Anthony Edéni, today decided to pursue plans for the signature this month of both the peace contracts with West Germany and the European defence-treaty.

The decision came after today's talks with Sir Ivone Kirkpatrick, British High Commissioner in Germany.

He reported to Mr Eden on the latest hitches liable to delay the peace contract negotiations and on the repercussions in Germany of the American suggestion for four-Power, talks on all-German elections.
