WORLD NEWS ROUNDUP
Russ Accept Western Terms On Austrian Peace Agreement
From United Press
Russia bowed to a U.S. ultimatum yesterday and agreed to an Austrian Treaty on Western terms.
The treaty-signing ceremonies, marking one of the biggest breaks in the long East-West cold war, will take piace at 11 a.m. Sunday.
Russia, which had threatened to deadlock negotiations on the issue of Austrian debt payments, yielded to the west after U.S. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles sent this ultimatum to the Vienna meeting:
“Either agree on a completed treaty draft, or call off the meeting at which the Big Four foreign ministers are scheduled to sign the treaty this Sunday.”
That blunt message was delivered to the Russians at the opening of today’s final conference session by U.S. Ambassador Llewellyn E. Thompson, conference sources said.
Dulles had announced in Paris that he would fly to Washington

I rather than go to Vienna if Russia continued to block agreement on the one outstanding article.
At the conclusion of today’s session, representatives of the Big Four and Austria issued a communique which said: “Full unanimity has been reached on all articles of the treaty.” Conference sources said Russia yielded suddenly when confronted with the ultimatum. It agreed to an American compromise on Article 35, the economic clause.
More was at stake than the Austrian Treaty. The Big Four foreign ministers are scheduled to work out arrangements at Vienna for a top-level East-West coference between heads of state. President Eisenhower had made completion of the Austrian Treaty an essential test of Soviet good intentions for that conference.
