Picture Dark For German Peace Treaty
Paris, May 26—(U.P.)-Western observers believed today that the outlook for agreement on Germany was dark unless Russia offered some new proposal.
The Big Four foreign ministers went into their fourth day of discussions on Germany with their news apparently as far apart as they were when the last conference broke up in London 17 months ago.
The general opinion was that this conference will be recorded as another failure unless Soviet foreign minister Andrei Vishinsky offers some other basis of agreement than he hens so far.
Vishinkey and U. S. secretary of state Dean Acheson made it plain Wednesday how far apart are the East and West in their views on the future of the German state.
There is no hope of agreement. Western observers said, unless Russia gives up the idea that the Big Four powers can return to the Potsdam agreement and its unsuccessful dream of four-power control of Germany.
They spoke in temperate words but their meaning was more clear than it ever has been before.
By Bibler
Acheson raised the possibility that the newly formed Western German state might not want a union with Soviet-controlled Germany even if Russia was willing. He emphasized that the Western powers would be the buyer and that it was a buyers' market.
In considering a union of Eastern and Western Germany, Acheson said the West would have to consider both the assets and the liabilities of the Soviet zone.
"There may be very great liabilities," he added significantly. "We don't know whether it (the Eastern zone) is self-sufficient. We don't know whether it has assets. We don't know but we hope that it is an asset."

'Constitution To K.C. June 11
If the plane were to be stood on one wingtip, the other wingtip would extend 18 stories in the air. The single rudder towers five stories above the sidewalk, he commented.
Its capacity would enable it to carry a pullman car, a railroad box-car, and flatware with enough room left over for a passenger bus. The four engines, fed by 10,000 gallon wing-type tanks, develop 14,000 horsepower. This is equal to three railway engine. Captain Terrell said. Two reversible propellers provide additional braking power.
The 92-ton "Constitution," immense naval plane, will be open to public inspection at the Municipal airport in Kansas City, Mo. Saturday, June 11 and Sunday, June 12, said Capt. W.R. Terrell, commandant of the University N.R.O.T.C. unit.
The "Constitution" is on a nation wide tour publicizing the Naval Air forces. Naval medical officers and nurses will accompany the plane to explain the programs and give preliminary examinations to qualified applicants.
