Oakdale Copenhagen, Denmark HH Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, one-time "bog ey-man" for European diplo mats, emerged with heighten ed prestige within the West ern Alliance from the three day NATO council meeting here this week.

Among Europeans, notably the smaller nations, Dulles often was considered the chief stumbling bloc to ne gotiations with the Soviets. More recently, criticism was levelled against him for allegedly slowing down pre summit moves on a cold war settlement.

Khrushchev, ' Who made Dulles target number - one in his attacks on American policy, thus helped raise the secretary's prestige. He ap parently had ' hoped to bypass Dulles altogether in future east-west negotiations. 'Moscow reports indicated this may have been one of the main reasons behind Khrushchev's insistence on a summit meeting, whereby he expected to "get at" President Eisenhower directly. More Relaxed Meanwhile, NATO confer ence participants said, Dulles had displayed generally' a greater "flexibility" than in the past. . , - Several diplomats describ ed him as "more relaxed and more amenable" then they had known him.
