Dulles Leaves Thursday For Big Four Meet Conference Opens Thursday, Plan To Talk On Atom Plan WASHINGTON UP, — Secretary pf state John Foster Dulles leaves Thursday tor the Big Four conference in Berlin and crucial side talks with Russia’s V. M. Molotov on first moves to break the long east-west deadlock on the atom. Dulles had breakfast today with President Eisenhower and presumably the secretary of state’* important journey to Berlin was one of the main topics of conversation. Soviet ambassador Georgi N. Zarubin informed Dulles late Tuesday that Molotov would be ready in Berlin to discuss the time, place and agenda for a full dress international meeting on Mr. Eisenhower’s atoms-for-peace plan. Dulles was reported encouraged by word that Molotov would be “glad" to meet him to continue the atomic talks—He Is anxious to give the Russians every opportunity to join in the plan to share some atomic resources for peaceful purposes. If that much can be accomplished, he feels progress may be possible later on controlling atomic hydrogen and other weapons of mass destruction. Dulles hopes to find out from Mplotov whether Moscow is sincerely interested in the plan to share some atomic resources. He wants to arrange a future conference between Russia, the United States. Britain and Canada to put the President’s project in motion. If Molotov balks or raises impossible conditions, there is every indication the United States will seek, a separate agreement with the other major atomic powers. Studying Disposal Os Surplus Butter Surplus Piling Up At 'Alarming' Rate WASHINGTON, UP —The agriculture department today was rebutter piling up in government freezers at an "alarming” rate. One proposal said to be under consideration calls for the sale of some of the record 270 million pounds in government hands to processors to be mixed with regular stocks for re-sale to housewives at reduced prices. Under the plan, the department would sell to processors at slashed 1 prices—about 30 cents a pound. > The processor would mix the low- - price butter with regular stocks now sellin'g for about 70 cents a ’ pound and offer consumers two 1 pounds for an average price of about 50 cents each. A department spokesman said no “decision” on the plans under study is “imminent.” But he said officials are considering "things we wouldn’t have considered a year ago.” ' The department's butter headache mounted as secretary of agriculture Ezra T. Benson faced a stiff fight with the dairy industry over the 1954 butter price support i level. Benson has indicated he does not think continuation of high price props this year would be “justified.’ ’ | He must decide by April 1 whether to leave the supports at the present 90 percent of parity level or reduce them downward toward , the 75 percent minimum provided by law. The government is daily adding to its surplus stocks Through direct purchases under the present price. Kuppor.t program.
