British Criticize Wallace
Over Ads for Jewish Aid
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, April 28.-The inde-
pendent Manchester Guardian criti-
cized Henry A. Wallace today be-
cause, It said, he permitted his New
York magazine to publish advertise
ments appealing for funds to help
Jewish extremists in Palestine.
"One of the paradoxes of Mr..
Henry Wallace's character" the
Guardian said, sis that while he
gushes Gin Englan6 about the

port an armed revolt against Brit
ish authority"
The Guardian cited an advertise
ment in the New Republic issue of
March "a signed by the Palestine
Resistance Committee" and an
other in the magazine April 7 signed
by the Political Action Committee
for Palestine. Inc"
Mr.. Wallace told news confer
ence in Paris last Friday that he
wanted Britain to implement the
original Balfour doctrine in Pales-
tine and that he wanted the United
Nations to carry out a huge spend
ing program there. including estab-
lishment of jordan River author
ity on the lines of the Tennessee
Valley Authority.
Regarding Jewish extremists, Mr.
Wallace deplored their violence but
described them as a resistance

Chinese Reds Loud Wallace
Call Truman Reoctionory

SAN FRANCISCO, April % (P.-
The Chinese Communist radio yes
terday highly praised Henry A. Wal
lace and assailed the Truman ad-
ministration as "reactionary
clique" which it said was operating
''in the old Hitlerite way"
The broadcast, heard by the Asso-
ciated Press in San Francisco, was
dateIned North Shensi Province
and was presented as quotations
from an article in the Chinese Com
munist emancipation daily"
Whether this paper actually is still
publishing is questionable, as the
Chinese government armies report
ed shortly after capturing Yenan
on March 10 that they had seized
the presses, which were being trans
ported to the north.
Former United States Vice Presi-
dent Henry Wallace's speeches on
his European tour" said the broad
cast, show hows isolated are Tru-
man, Vandenberg, Marshall and
their reactionary, clique.
"Wallace's speeches were made
when the American reactionary
clique was completing aid to Greece
and opposition to expansion of COM
munism, prosecuting American Com
munists at home in the old Hitlerite
way and. Intentionally deadlocking
affairs in the Moscow Foreign Min
isters' Conference"
The broadcast concluded by say
ing that Mr.. Wallace was threatened
with fine and Imprisonment, and
that thus the mask of so-called
democracy and freedom of speech
of the reactionary clique has fallen

Mr.. Eaton said he had no illusions

Mr.. Eaton agreed and said the
situation in Korea presents "a elm

been drawn between the American
and Russian zones, land we are not
permitted to step across the line, "
Mr.. Eaton pointed out.
Representative Rich, Republican,

know why the issues involved could
not be settled through the United
Nations, even without Russia, If she
is unwilling to cooperate.
Mr.. Eaton said he would like to see

power is an obstacle at present.

lican, of Colorado described the bill
as step "fraught with danger" He
was not so concerned over its i'm

implications, and expressed doubt
that the doctrine of Communism
could be stamped out with any spe-

taking this step, "but not taking it

Will Detail Moscow
ParIey Views Today
By the A,soe;oted Press

Henry Wallace, back from whirl-l
wind speaking tour of Western Eu-
rope, scheduled press conference
for late this afternoon at which
he is expected to detail his views
on the Moscow Conference Of For
eign Ministers.
The former Vice President, one
Of the sharpest critics Of the ad-
ministration's foreign policy, ar
rived at National Airport last night
to prepare for a Nationwide trip
to repeat "again and again" that
1--WE can buy more by investing for
peace than investing for war" He

day from Europe.
Mr.. Wallace refused to comment
on President Truman's approval Of
Sec etary of State Marshall's work

other than to say he was sure
something had been accomplished'
in Moscow.
Evades Further Questions.
He brushed aside further ques-
tions on the subject, explaining he
would hold an expanded press con-
ference this afternoon.
Later. however, he asserted that
American foreign policy is ION the
road to ruthless imperialism, add
ing, however, but it's not that yet" /"
Briefly discussing his overseas
tour, Mr.. Wallace said the people of
Europe appear to be more concerned
with peace than the American peo-
pie, especially in the countries
which were occupied" He said he
planned to tell people in the United
States of those splendid, warm
hearted people in western Europe
and England"
Nothing But Love" for Congress.
Mr.. Wallace, who was subjected
to barrage of criticism in Congress
after his attacks abroad on Amer
ican foreign policy, said in response
to query that there Is nothing
but love in my heart" for members
of Congress.
He will begin his speaking tour
