Moscow, Aug. 17.
Marshal Nikolai Bulganin, the Soviet Defence Minister, called the Western envoys in Moscow to his side at a party tonight and drank a toast with them "against war and for peace.”
He said: "We do not want to fight but if the time comes, we are ready." They were attending a reception at the Indonesian Embassy in honour of Indonesia's National Day.
Marshal Bulganin drank his toast with the British Charge d'Affaires, Mr C. Parrott, the American Charge d'Affaires, Mr Walter Walmsley, the French Charge d'Affaires, M. Jean le Roy, the Chinese Ambassador, Chang Wen-tien, and the Indian, Indonesian, Burmese and other Ambassadors.
