Big-4 Talks Proposal

GUARDED COMMENT FROM US.

London, Nov. 22.

The French Premier, M. Pierre Mendes-France's proposal for an East-West conference next May had a cool reception in diplomatic quar- ters tonight.

So too did the French Premier's idea of agreement with Russia on the evacuation of occupation troops from Austria 18 months to 2 years after the conclusion of an Austrian treaty instead of within three months.

The British Government is far from enthusiastic about arranging a new "Big Four" meeting immediately the Paris treaties are rati6.

A U.S. Government spokesman in Washington made a guarded comment on

M. Mendes-France's proposal without directly committing itself to Big Four Talks in May.
