The Kremlin position was made plain in a statement issued by the official Soviet news agency Tass. It came at a moment when international developments in the West indicated a summit meeting might be delayed until spring.

The timing the Tass announcement left the impression tfhat Premier Nikita Khrushchev urgently wants a summit meeting, but that if he cannot get it this year he will take it later on. Tass mentioned no proposed date for the gathering of the government chiefs of the United States, the U.S.S.R., Great Britain and France. The Tass statement followed by 16 hours another dispatch of the agency distributed here and then canceled, with the explanation only that it had been distributed by mistake. That earlier statement had. said Khrushdiev told President Eisenhower in the United States last month the Soviet government "deems it necessary that a summit conference be convened before the end of the year." sile range through a heavy over-'terminal.

"In this connection, Tass has been authorized to state that the Soviet government's repeatedly stated position on this matter remains unchanged. The government of the U.S.S.R.

regards a meeting of the heads of the government as necessary and is' ready for such a meeting. "It also holds the view, expressed by other states as well, that the earlier meeting is called, the better it will be for the cause of peace." LONDON (AP) Authorized informants reported Friday the British--and possibly the Americans, too--intend to contest a French inclination to delay an East-West summit meeting. These sources said British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan intends to press strongly for a summit meeting before the end of this year, so that the momentum of East-West conciliation, the British believe to be in existence now, is not lost. Diplomatic informants in st Germany reported French President Charles de Gaulle issued bids for a Western summit meeting in Paris. This report, along with other developments, seemed to cast doubt on the likelihood of a summit meeting before the end of 1959.

De Gaulle is pictured in Paris as holding out for a delay of the Big Four conference until spring. In the interim, as well as meeting with Western leaders, he will have talked with i Khrushchev, whom he has invited to visit Paris this fall.
