"The danger that -western Eu
rope Xaces -today," said Green, "is
, not that 3ier actions may be too
bold, "bat rather that they may be
too ttarfL" '. '
Green was the only American
to speak in the Initial session of
the unofficial "conference of
Strasbourg" between the congress
men and a 20-man cross-section
of the council of Europe's consul
tative assembly. The European as
sembly includes delegates chosen
by the -parliaments of IS nations.
The meeting is to have no bind
ing effect on relations between
governments ox the countries rep
resented Jiere, but is designed to
encourage cooperation among
them.
Green -took the floor after Bel
gium's Paul-Henri Spaak, assem
bly resident, greeted the con
gressmen with the assurance that
all members of the assembly de
sire the closest possible associa
tion with the U. S. ' ,
Most Americans were non-committal
after the sessions.
Kep. Oonald OToole (D-N.Y.)
summed it up this way:
Today was only batting prac
tice. Wait till we get our feet on
the ground.
Sen. Brien McMahon (D-Conn.)
commented: "Today wa were only

Eden Sees East,
West Chasm
as
so deep, wide and alarming that he
did not believe any "sudden or
spectacular move" would lessen
the tension, f!
1
Rather, he proposed that east
and west try to settle some of their
little differences before tackling
the big ones. i.
uaung ms first statement in a
full foreign policy debate since
the new conservative government
took office, Eden ranged all the
chief trouble Spots of the world,
from Korea to Germany, Iran and
Egypt. :: : ; J
"There is ndw virtually no dip
lomatic contact between east and
west, between either side of the
iron curtain, "i! Eden said in his
grim report
Such an impasse, he said, "has
rarely existed- in history before.'
It is the depth and the width of
the forbidding chasm that separ
ates east andi: west, mentally as
well as physically, that is so for
bidding for the present and so
alarming for the future.
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
Vishinsky in his rejection of West
ern disarmament proposals at Par
is, he continued, displayed an "ap
parent imperviousness to any oth
er shade of meaning except his
own. I hope I was mistaken, but
there did . not appear to be a
chink open anywhere x x x."

After the committee adjourned
until tomorrow, Vishinsky left the
room without saving whether he
had relented in any degree. He is
expected to reply later this week.
