With the nation's chief foreign policy officer on the sidelines-Secretary of State John Foster Dulles conferred in his hospital suite with his top aides and with President Eisenhower, but he left the job of running the State Department to Acting Secretary Christian Herter-State made the same straightforward reply to Khrushchev that it would have made if Dulles had been at his desk. The U.S., said Press Officer Lincoln White, is still awaiting a "reasoned reply" to its note suggesting a foreign ministers' conference.
