BONN, March 15-Chan-
cellor Konrad Adenauer said
today that the West must be

viet Union drawn out over
several months after the op-
ening confrontation of the
heads of government that
probably will take place
this year.

certain that the foreign ministers
of West Germany, the United
States, Britain and France would
meet prior to the gathering of the
North Atlantic Council in Wash-
Ington next month.
