A Soviet spokesman later spiced up the Russian lure. At a press conlerence in East Berlin, Leonid F. llyichev, foreign press chief of the Soviet foreign ministry, was asked if such a parley would dil- cuss Indc-China.

"Yes, of couriie.” Ilyichev rc- plied, "on condition that France -would bring it up before the five powers."

He said it would not be nec- essary for the Victminh chief, Ho Chi Mlnh, to be present at such negotiations.

Equal Representation

The Ruulan also submitted to chairman Eden a letter from the East German Communist regime requesting that, "at the proper time. representatives of both the East and West German govern-' ments attend the present confer- ence when the German question is discussed." He added that this re- quest should be discussed by the four foreign ministers "in due time."

Russia demands that the east cone with a population of 18,000,000 have equal representation in a future all - German government. The Allies have been adamant in rejecting any dealings that would put the Soviet Zone regime on the same footin, as that of West Ger-I many. which has a population ofl 48,000,000. l
