Chinese Premier Chou En-lai’s
talks with the new Soviet lead-
ers have brought the two camps
closer together.
A Moscow dispatch to L’Uni-

paper said, Chou and his Peking
delegation, which came to Mos-
cow for last week’s celebration
of the 47th anniversary of the
Bolshevik revolution, apparent-
ly were extending their visit for
further talks.
An editorial today in Pravda,
the Soviet party paper, said a
world Communist conference
"is clearly overdue.”
Red China had vigorously
opposed such a conference when
former Premier Nikita Khru-
shchev called it to muster sup-
port against the Chinese. The
Kremlin’s new leaders, party
secretary Leonid I. Brezhnev
and Premier Alexei N. Kosygin,
are expected to put the empha-
sis at such a meeting on unity
and not schism.
