Yesterday's article concerning cut-rates on religious books offered by the Student Union Bookstore, Astring Religious Emphasis week was erroneously stated by the Daily Kansas.

Berlin—(U.P.)-The Big Four foreign ministers have agreed on a Far Eastern peace conference with Red China, an informed western source said today.
The agreement was reached at a secret session which lasted only one hour and 15 minutes. The session was devoted mainly to deciding how the conference announcement would be made.
No official communique was issued and terms of the agreement were not disclosed officially.
The Soviets were said to have agreed to give Red China a back seat at the conference by dropping their base at the airport, but they be admitted as a full participant.
When the final secret session opened this morning, a high source said the ministers already had reached tentative agreement on the Korean conference on terms submitted by the West.
The Western informant said the Soviets had accepted the following conditions for holding the meeting: 1. The conference would be held in Beijing.
2. It would be limited to a discussion of the Korean settlement.
4. Russia would not be considered a belligerent in the Korean war. This is the role that Russia has refused to accept.
3. Red China would be admitted to the conference by invitation only and not be accepted as an equal partner. The Big Four would invite China to join and then send invitations to North and South Korea.
5. The 16 nations which sent troops to Korea will be satisfied that they will be represented by the three Western powers.
