British Beat Russia With Letters On Suez Situation LONDON (Reuters)-The Brlt- printed in the Soviet night diam newspaper I iah nvernment Monday closed that Russia warned Brit- ain and France not to attack Egypt seven weeks before British- grench intervention began in use. The government released the texts of letters exchanged last September and October between the British prime minister Sir An- thony Eden and Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganln. In a letter dated Sept. 11. Bulganin referred to apparent French and British readiness to attack Egypt. and added: "The Soviet Union cannot stand aside from this question. We wish to warn you in a friendly way as to co the dangers which might follow. if the necessa y prudence is not shown." In a reply five days later, Eden said Bulganin's letter seemed based on a "complete misconcep- tion of the position of the British government" and contained "cer- tain errors of fact." BEAT BUBSIANS British publication of the texts beat a promised Russian disclos- aveetia ey. A Soviet government spokesman Monday womised the letters would show that den lte Soviet warnings "certain clrces in Brit- ain and France. encourage: by the United States" planned "ag: gression" against Egypt. The first letter from the Soviet premier. dated Sept. ll, said at- tempts were being made by Brit- ain and France to ignor ethe United Nations and its principles. Referring to French units being in Cyprus and the apparent readi- ness of Britain and France to begin military action against Egypt. Bulganin asked: "How can these actions be re- " r with membership of the United Nations?"

Bulganln's letter said the Brit- ish government, together with France and the United istatcs. continued to threaten Egypt. but said the soviet Union regarded favorably the fact that the Suez question was then under consider- ation by the United Nations Secur- ity Council. He wrote: "We cannot help noting. how- ever. that Britain and France in- tend to get. in the security coun- cil. in defiance of Egypt. approval of the plan of a canal users asso- cintion." The setting up of this associa- tion.

The letter urged Eden to "face suggestion of inevitable war be- tween the free world and interna- tional communism. He said armed aggression is no longer "a pay- ing proposition." In his first foreign policy speech of President Eisenhower's second term. Dulles counselled patience on many fronts - in the Middle East. those involving restless Red satellites behind the iron curtain, and on disarmament. He rededicated the United States to the United Nations and its ideals of peace with Justice telling critics: "That is no abdication of for- eign policy. It is the exercise of foreign policy. and its exercise in the way which represents the best hope for humanity." TOUCITED WARFARE Touching briefly on the horrors of modern warfare. Dulles told the annual Associated Press luncheon regarding deep differences be tween Russia and the free world: "Indeed. history suggests that a conflict as basic as that dividing the world of freedom and the world of international communism ultimately erupts in war. "That suggestion we reject. But hopes is not enough. We must also exert ourselves to the full to pre- vent it. To this task, the Ameri- can people must unswervingly dedicate their hearts and minds throughout the years ahead."

See Soviet Union Making Bid of Arab World ' A further reason for the timing may be the imminence of a deci- sion in the drawn out Cairo talks on Suez management between Egypt and the United States.

The s.ulTC!p0TldElICI opened by Bulganin Sept. 11 may have been motivated by the announcement from London and Paris Aug. 29 of the arrival in Cyprus of a con- tingent of French troops to pro- tect French nationals and interests during the Suez crisis.
