Dulles Claims Russians
Ending 'Violence' Policy
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24 (I)—Secretary of State John
Foster Dulles said today the Russians are junking a 30-year
policy of violence and intolerance and "bringing their system
and habits closer to ours."
He took the stand that

Rigid Supports
Tacked to Bill
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24 (In—
Opponents of the rigid farm price
supports which were tacked on to
the new $1 billion soil bank pro
gram opened a drive in the Sen
ate today to chop them out.
Sen. George D. Aiken (R-Vt.),
senior GOP member of the Agri
culture Committee and a support
er of the administration's flexible
and lower farm price props, led
the attack.
"High rigid supports never
have brought prosperity to the
American farmer and nev e r
will," Aiken told, the Senate.
"This line of reasoning is com
pletely false."
He was on the losing side when
the Democratic-controlled Agri
culture Committe voted 8-7 to re
place the present flexible sup
ports with rigid props.
Chairman Allen J. Ellender (D.-
La.) and other advocates of the
mandatory supports have been
urging their adoption.
All parties to the farm bill
battle concede this will be the
key test when the final vote
comes, perhaps late next week.
Aiken said he is confident the
Senate will continue the flexible
supports it first approved in 1954,
when the Republicans were in
command.
As the price supports debate
continued, a proposal to refund
some $6O million in federal gas
taxes to farmers each year ad
vanced to the Senate.

Moscow, while still aiming at
forced to make a big change in
methods because of the "unity,
firmness and determination of the
free world."
Dulles made the assertions to an
overflow audience at a "back to
bipartisanship" hearing of the
Senate Foreign Relatoins Com
mittee.
Stoutly defending the recent
shipment of 18 light tanks to
Saudi Arabia, Dulles gave a gen
erally optimistic review of world
affairs—highlighted by his state
ment that the Soviet Union is
developing "at this minute in
Moscow" a new "creed."
"Trying to Play our Game"
"They have come to the conclu
sion," he said "that our methods
are better than theirs. They are
trying to play our game. I am
sure we can beat them at that
game. If we can't, then we ought
to be ashamed of ourselves."
On the whole, Dulles declared,
such a shift in Soviet policy—he
called it an "imitation" of Ameri
can methods—stands to benefit
the free world. And he said the
Kremlin may have to set in mo
tion "irresistable forces" that will
foment "the yeast of change" in
Russia's government.
Democrats Voice Skepticism
Several Democrats, Sen. H. Hu
bert Humphrey (D.-Minn.) among
them, voiced pointed skepticism
both at Dulles' hopeful view of
the world situation and at his de
fense of the Saudi Arabian tank
deal.

bottlenecks."

Snyder Again
Gives Ike
Green Light
THOMASVILLE, Ga., Feb. 24
(W)—President Dwight D. Eisen
hower's White House doctor said
today that so far as the chief exec
utive's health is concerned he
"might be safer" serving a second
term than he was before his heart
attack.
But the physician, Maj. Gen.
Howard M. Snyder, said he has
"no impression" as to whether
Eisenhower actually will bid for
reelect ion.
"All we can do is trust in God
if he goes ahead." Snyder told
newsmen just five months to the
day after the President's Sept.
24 heart attack in Denver.
The doctor talked to reporters
on the fringe of a quail hunting
grounds this morning as Eisen
hower and his host, Secretary of
the Treasury George M. Hum
phrey, were riding off aboard a
mule-drawn carriage in quest of
birds.
Snyder did not elaborate on
his remark that Eisenhower
"might be safe r" serving an
other term.
He apparently meant, however,
that any man who has suffered a
heart attack can be expected to
take greater care in the future to
safeguard his health. And in - the
President's case his physicians ob
viously are keeping even closer
tab on his condition than before
his attack.
The President will fly back to
Washington tomorrow, ending a
vacation here which started Feb.

Adenauer Kicks Out
Opposition Members
BONN, Germany, Feb. 24 (in—Chancellor Konrad Aden
auer tonight brought to a head a bitter nine-month quarrel
with the Free Democratic party by expelling 37 of its re
bellious members from his coalition government.
Dr. Thomas Dehler, leader of the Free Democrats, prompt
ly called in a speech at Stuttgart tonight for "bargaining with
the Russians for the price of Ger
man unity."
Dehler was cheered repeatedly
as he accused Adenauer of lack
ing determination to achieve uni
fication
Enacts Quick Revenge
Adenauer enacted quick revenge
for his defeat of last week at the
hands of the Free Democrats. The
Free Democrats helped the Social.
ists wrest North Rhine - West
phalia, West Germany's richest
state, from Adenauer's control.
MOSCOW, Feb. 24 (,V) The
20th Congress of the Communist
party today unanimously warned
against any attempt to restore
one-man rule in the Soviet Union.
It publicly flashed a big red
light against any person in the
party who might try to take over
Stalin's role.
Party boss N. S. Khrushchev
and all other top leaders have
told the Congress they are de
voted to the principle of col
lective rule. They .have dis
avowed any intention to return
to the one-man system.
"The Congress," said a resolu
tion adopted unanimously,
"Charges the Central Committee
not to relax its struggle against a
revival of the cult of the one man,
'to remember that the genuine
I creotor of a new life are the mass
es led by the Communist party."
The same resolution, drawn
up by a committee headed by
Khrushchev. declared the Cen
tral Committee was "absolutely
right" in coming out against
the cult of one person.
The Congress a 1 s o endorsed,
wit h unspecified reservations,
IPremier N. A. Bulganin's pro-
Distressed Plane Safe posals for a new five-year plan.
LONDON, Saturday, Feb. 25 (iP) A committee headed by Bulgan
-A crippled U.S. Air Force in himself was named to make
Globemaster with 16 men aboard amendments and suggestions for
landed safely in Iceland early to- the plan, which is aimed at push
day after a grim two-hour battle ing the Soviet Union's produc
with failing engines over the At-, l lion head of that of the United
lantic. !States.
The 80 - year - old Chancellor,
bounding back from that political
drubbing, was able to expel the
Free Democrats by nailing down
the support of the powerful oppo
sition Socialists for constitutional
amendments legalizing rearma
ment.
Has 402 of 487 Votes
Agreement with the Socialists
insured a total of at least 402
votes in the 487-member Bundes
tag (Lower House). This is far
more than the necessary two
thirds for the amendments with
out help from the FDP. In the
Bundesrat (Upper House) Aden
auer and the Socialists control all
the votes.
The decision to expel the Free
Democrats was made at a meeting
of Adenauer's Christian Demo
cratic party leaders. The action
followed yesterday's dramatic
FDP split which saw 16 of the 53
Free Democrats bolting to form
a new pro-Adenauer party.
