l Pres. Pledges Russia Has - Nothing To Fear NATO

By PRESTON GROVER

GENEVA (AP) - Summoning Marshal Georgi Zhukov to witness his truthfulness. President Eisen- hower gave Soviet leaders a per- sonal pledge Tuesday that the Western alliance will never attack Russia. He appealed to them to permit a unified Germany defen- sively allied with the West.

But Soviet Premier Nikolai Bul- ganin firmly rejected German uni- fication on that basis.

The debate in Tuesday after- noon's session of the summit con- fercnce left little doubt the unifi- cation issue is tightly deadlocked between Russia and the Western powers.

Bulganin made clear that s divorcing of Germany from the Western European Union and the Atlantic alliance is Russia's price for uniting the country.

MOVING APPEAL

Eisenhowe 's appeal was des- drlbed by officials present as the most moving and emotional talk in the conference to date.

The president said he wanted to talk about the North Atlantic Treaty association and the pur- poses of this collective security arrangement. He asked Marshal
