dated June 25,1954: Chou leaves for India

Mr.Chou En-Lai, China's Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, left Geneva by air on June 24 for New Delhi to confer with Prime Minister Nehru - the first meeting of these two leaders of nearly 1,000 million Asian people. Their talks will coincide with the Washington conference of the Western `Big Two,' Sir Winston Churchill and President Eisenhower, for which the British Prime Minister and his Foreign Secretary, Mr.Anthony Eden, fly to the U.S. Mr.Chou said before leaving for India that the peace-loving people of the world hoped that "our work (at the Geneva Conference) will lead to the eventual restoration of peace in Indo-China." The Chinese Premier, with 16 aides, flew in a luxurious four-engined Air India Constellation airliner, which had arrived in Geneva specially to fetch him.
