|AIIen Dulles Attacks
Soviet Tactics as Bar
To Peace and Trade
BY the Asseeiotsd Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 1l.-RuSsia's s
tactics in peace negotiations in Cen
tral Europe, where it "is most inter-
ested in expanding its own political
and economic system" were as
sailed today by Allen d. Dulles,
member Of the United States delega-
ton to the United Nations.
In addressing the National For
eign Trade Convention, Mr.. Dulles
said Russia seems to be blocking
the conclusion Of peace" and urged
the United States Ito forget tech
ricalities."
Earlier, Secretary of Commerce
Hartman called on American busi-
ness to use real restraint in price
policies"
Urges Fight on Imitation.
Secretary Hartman told the con-
yention that with the removal of
price controls, businessmen should
shape their policies to assist in pre-
venting as far as practicable further
inflationary price increases"
III we cannot get a legal and
signed peace" Mr.. Dulles said, "let
us move as rapidly as possible to a
state of peace which will help the
flow Of trade, treaty or no treaty"
Russia's tactics, he said, operate
to prevent American business on a
free basis from competing with the
government-controlled economy of
Russia"
Mr.. Dulles urged businessmen te
work with the United States Gov
ernment to get Germany "off the
dole"
Germany today is like a bank
rupt corporation into which some
of its creditors are pouring mil
lions without any plan of reorgani-
zation," the American delegate said
"At the same time other creditors
are taking the machinery out oi
the plants"
| Believes Free Trade Welcome.
Europeans, he predicted, If giver
a chance, will welcome the type Of
free trade and free economy fol
which we stand. But we have tt
give them reasonable chance tt
choose. We cannot abandon tn,
field to dynamic competitor"
| Winthrop w. Andrich, chairman
OF the Chase National Bank of New
York and president of the Inter
national Chamber of Commerce
also contended that Germany mus
be permitted to produce If she i
to become self-supporting and i
she is to contribute to the economi'
life Of neighboring nations"
Secretary Hartman said that eaci
corporation should restrict its pur
chases of those commodities ant
Iproducts in short supply as mucl
as possible and postpone new con
struction to the fullest degree pos
sible in order to assist in leaving
material for home construction TO
our veterans and others withou
adequate housing"
/ Pleading for bipartisan supper
of the administrators foreign eco
nomic policies, he asserted it wa
vital to keep them out Of domesti'
politics.
