by Dean Acheson
Not all leaders of responsible opinion in the West are agreed on the wisdom of meeting the Russians at a Summit Conference. Some, like the Hon. Dean Acheson , U.S. Secretary of State from 1949 to 1953, maintain that the West would be running serious risks in negotiating at the Summit on what, as they see it, would be Moscow's terms.
In this address, made recently to the NATO Parliamentary Conference in Washington, Mr. Acheson put this point with some force. He maintained that Russia is 'inviting us to confer with an idea of coming to terms about our own existence.'
