Agreement by Dewey
Ito Speed Conference
On Postwar Security

VII TV9lWoI JeCuIuy
Assured on behalf Of Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey that the adj
ministration- sponsored plans for
postwar security will not be sub
1ect to partisan political attacks,
the American delegation hoped
today to push the conference at
Dumbarton Oaks rapidly toward
q successful conclusion.
These hopes, it was learned, are
based on q wide measure of pre-
lminary agreement which already
has been reached on the establish
ment OF a security organization and
on the fact that the Russian de.e-
CATION appears willing to negotiate
on the subject of giving the small
nations a meaningful role In the
proposed council.
The statement of Republican
policy was made yesterday by John
Foster Dulles, personal representa-
tive Of Gov. Dewey, at the end Of
his third conference with Secre-
tary Of State Hull. While reserving,
on behalf of the Republican presi-
dental candidate, the right to
criticize President Roosevelt's for
eign policy generally, Mr.. Dulles
said the Dumbarton Oaks confer
ence would be considered a NON
partisan subject"
Dulles Leaves to See Dewey.
Mr.. Dulles left for New York last
night for conference with Gov,
Dewey, reportedly bearing a copy of
the American plan for postwar
security. 1t is anticipated that
either he or the Governor may have
some further statement to make
after studying the plan.
Meanwhile, the Dumbarton Oaks
conference adjourned for the week
end. The secretariat Will use tho
period to prepare material for future
discussion next week. All three
delegations now have presented their
plans, and the task before the con-
ference Is to work out COMPROMISED
on points of difference.
Although the Russian plan has
not been made public, 1t is under.
stood to give the big four" powers
the United States, Great Britain.
Russia and China-exclusive control
over the use of force against an
aggressor. The United States and
British plans would give the small
nations rotating representation on
the executive council.
However, 1t was reported today
the Soviet delegation has not
adopted an adamant stand, but ap-
pears willing to discuss compromises.
Therefore, there is strong hope
among American officials that an
agreement on details can be reached
among the three powers represented
in the first phase Of the conference,
and later with the Chinese.
DR.. Koo Arrives in New York.
The chairman of the Chinese dele
cation, DR.. Wellington Koo, who is
Chungking's Ambassador to Great
Britain, arrived in New York last
night on transatlantic Clipper,
the Associated Press reported. He
Is expected to come here for a series
Of private talks with other members
OF the Chinese delegation. It seems
likely that the present three-power
conversations win be concluded by
September Is, and the Chinese will
then confer with the Americans and
British.
The joint Hull-Dulles announce
ment said the two agreed on
numerous aspects" of problems In
volved In an international security
organization. Mr.. Dulles said later
he found himself in general agree
ment with Mr.. Hull, with differ
ences Of emphasis rather than sub
stance"
The two will meet again, the
statement said, to continue exchane-
ing views and keep Gov. Dewey IN
to date on the progress of the talks
at Dumbarton Oaks.
Mr.. Dulles said he hoped the talks
would produce an American PLAN
rather than an administration plan
for world peace.
! dulles Added Proviso.
Mr.. Dulles said he added to the
)oint announcement paragraph
stating that Gov. Dewey shared Mr.
Hulls view on keeping the peace
agency out Of politics "on the under
standing, however, that it did not
preclude full public non-partisan
discussion Of the means of attain.
ing lasting peace"
Mr.. Dulles defined what he called
the partisan approach which must
be avoided.
"A partisan approach means an
approach which Is deliberately
alvlsive OF the American people or
Wnere you take q position as re-
CARDS the future organization of thu
world which you may not honestly
oeneve, but think will get you votes. !"
Gov. Dewey's adviser said he had
been given a copy of the American
plan Tor peace organization now
before the Dumbarton Oaks con.
terence, but refused to disclose
whether Russian and British plans
are also among the documents he
is taking to New York.
