Kremlin Visit. Macmillan Talks With Khrushchev A Fizzle. "British Prime Minister Macmillan goes to Moscow hopeful of 'breaking the ice' on the East-West issues. After a ten hour stretch of talks and with no hint to Macmillan, Khrushchev erupts into a blistering anti-west surprise speech in which he turned down a western proposal for a 'foreign ministers' conference. Khrushchev wants a summit conference. President Dwight D. Eisenhower says the west won't give an inch on Berlin. The Cold War is reaching zero." Khrushchev shakes hands with men, photographers in background. Nikita, Macmillan (?), and other men sit at table and talk. No angry speeches are shown.
