America, Britain and France will each send preliminary replies shortly to Russia agreeing in principle with the idea of a four-Power meeting, it was learned in usually well-informed quarters to- day.

The notes of the Western Governments, in reply to the Soviet note inviting them to a four- Power conference on Germany, will stress that the meeting should be carefully prepared and cannot- be restricted to the German problem, these quar- ters said.
