dated April 7, 1954: Talks on hydrogen bomb

The British Government has agreed that there should be top-level talks with the United States and Russia on the hydrogen bomb. Mr. Anthony Eden, the British Foreign Secretary, winding up a debate in the House of Commons on April 5, accepted a Labour Opposition motion calling for an immediate British initiative to bring about a meeting between Sir Winston Churchill, President Eisenhower and the Soviet Prime Minister, Mr. Georgi Malenkov, on disarmament and strengthening collective peace through the United Nations. But he insisted that the Government must have the final word on the timing of an approach at the highest level. Earlier, the Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill, told the House that, with the Geneva Far East conference pending, "there could hardly be a more ill-chosen moment for a meeting of the heads of State and Governments."
