INTERPRETING THE NEWS Soviets May Foster Satellite Good Will 'By ED SIMON Canadian Press Staff Writer There are excellent arguments in favor of inviting Poland and| Czechoslovakia to help solve the German problem and there are equally compelling reasons for keeping them out but it is dif- ficult to grasp why the success of the Geneva foreign ministers' conference should hinge on their presence, To the mind untrained in dip- lomatic intricacies, the of the conference would appear to hinge on solving the problem, not on the identity of those who solve it. Since the reverse opinion is held by Russia's Andrei Gromyko it automatically becomes neces- sary for the ministers to make it their first order of business. Gromyko says the two countries should be represented as a trib- ute to their sufferings from Ger- man aggression during the Sec- HOME CURED GATES' | LOCAL FRESH KILLED MEATS could be -- and in some cases |already has been--advanced on behalf of a dozen others.

But to work efficiently they must get down to business, LITTLE TO GAIN Some observers at Geneva are making much of the points gained or lost in the preliminary infight- ing. In the present wrangle, it is difficult to understand wha |either side has to gain. The results of the Geneva con- ference will not be decided by majority vote but by mutual agreement. It would not be par- ticularly surprising if no agree- ment is possible, but neither side would emerge with credit if the deadlock occurred before the talks had properly begun.
