West Asks For Conference On Reunification Of Germany

BERLIN (Reuters) - Britain. the United States. France and West Germany asked Russia Mon- day for a four-power conference on the reunification of Germany as soon as there is a "reasonable hope of making progress."

The appeal was signed by For- eign Minister Heinrich von Bren- tano and the British. U.S. and French ambassadors in a cere- mony at the West Berlin city hall. 'As on vided thsriJ.can no peace treaty with Germany and no sta- bility in Europe." the declaration said. "The reunification of Ger- many In freedom is not only an elementary and just demand for the German people but in addi- tion it is the only sound founda- tion for a permanent and peace- ful order in Europe."

But he added: "I don't see any need to feel discouraged about it. though." '

Canadian wheat was the best in the world. And crops were not al- ways so good as they have been in recent years. Previous surp- luses had disappeared quickly.

ACT OF NATURE

''It isn't a question of praying for bad crops." said the 56-year- old native of Coidwnter. Ont. "it's just that nature acts that way."

Wheat could be stored a long time without spoiling. if the farmer had to stoic it, naturally he would have to be paid in some way. if he could not deliver his wheat and was therefore unable to get sash. this could cause hard-

Mr. Churchill noted that the Conservatives have advocated cash advances for farmers on farm-stored wheat. He also noted that Prime Minister Diefcnbaker said recently the decision whether to introduce such a plan is one for ?a.liament to make.

A reporter asked whether this was an indication that some form of cash advances will be proposed to the parliamentary session open- ing Oct. it. Mr. Churchill said he could not make any policy state mcnta but added that this would be a reasonable assumption. He did not, however; rule out the poa- sibiiity of some sort of earlier ac- tion along this line.
