France's Georges Bldault' and Britain's Anthony Eden laid their government policy declarations on the square table of the Big Four parley soon after Uie foreign ministers formally convened In the American sector Allied , Control Authority Building. The West seized the initiative In presenting its case as U. S. sec retary of State John Foster Dulles presided in the role of temporary chairman. ' Bldault - touched off the brass- tacks discussions with an asser tion that the conference should be confined to German unity and an Austrian peace treaty. Moscow has already said this meeting should be the springboard for talk ing about Asia too, with Red China taking part. The West is standing solidly "against this. The French minister declared the belief of Paris that a united Germany linked to a Western fam ily of nations that is purely de fensive in character is the surest way to prevent rebirth of ancient Prussian militarism. Moseo w's rage over the North Atlantic pact and German participation in Eu ropean defense has been some thing less than secret. '- V ' Eden, suave and silver-haired, followed Bldault with a declaration proposing free elections to form an all-German assembly which in turn- would form an all-German government. Then he sold, would be the time to negotiate a peace treaty. - - - The Russians have plumped for the rival Bonn and East Berlin re gimes to create between themselves the machinery for .a composite Reichstag, a view that would force the West to recognize Uie East Zone Communists as equals. At . this first sucn meeting in five years, Bldault said: "Clearly our meeting should be devoted to European problems. I do not believe that agreements reached on a broad plain wui ne advisable or even effective. We do not see why the fate of Austria should depend on that ot Korea, why there should be established a Hnl.

There were ear phones available for simultaneous translations but they were not be ing used.
