Lewis Meets Truman Comment
BY Attack on State Department

Lewis continued, would postulate
creation of a new Federal bureau
with its accompanying personnel
of thousands of employees and, in
consequence, an increase to the
tax burden.
Naturally, the first duty of the
Bureau of the Dog if stated by
the undersigned would be to COL
lect and impound the sad dogs
the intellectual poodle dogs, the
pusillanimous pups which now in
fest our State Department. This
would be gravely disturbing and
would perhaps cause profound un-
rest throughout our national
canine fraternity.
"The President could i'll afford
to have more brains in the DOG
Department than in the Depart.
ment of State and, from this
standpoint, his remarks to you are

John L. Lewis said yesterday
that President Truman did not
want to appoint him dog catcher
because his first duty in such an
office would be to collect and
impound the sad dogs, the in
tellectual poodle dogs and the
pusillanimous pups which now
infest our State Department"
The United Mine Workers
chief was replying to a statement
the President made in a letter
to a Colorado legislator a year
ago in which Mr.. Truman said.
among other things, II wouldn't
appoint John L. Lewis dog
catcher"
The Colorado legislator, State
Senator Neal Bishop, had sug-
gested facetiously to the Presi-
dent that he name Mr.. Lewis
Ambassador to Russia. In that
capacity, Mr.. Lewis, according to
the Senator, could roar mo- loud
er than Gromyko, hurl more in
vectives than Vishinsky and out
negotiate Molotof at the con-
ference table"
Mr.. Lewis made his reply to the
Truman dog catcher" letter in a
letter to Mr.. Bishop. The Lewis
missive follows:
"Conceivably it is true that the
Presidents choice of words was
again unfortunate. One could,
however. persuade ones self that
he was thinking in terms of prob
lens of state and had no intent
to belittle or sneer gratuitously
at a private citizen. Assuredly
the President of the United States
would not permit his personal
feelings to sway his judgment on

Britain's Minister for Economic

over the conference. He told a
news conference yesterday that
private investors would be en-
couraged to spend their money in
some of the countries to help de-

LONDON, Oct. Ga 21-day

In addition to the legal action
under law banning unofficial

works if necessary.
AT two gas works, 96 navy tech

Chou En-Iai Admits
Plenty Of Headaches
In Sovietizing China
By the Associated Press

HONG KONG, Oct. 6.-Chinese
Communist Premier Chou En-lai
has admitted publicly that all is
not well in Red China.
The full import of his policy
statement" in Peiping October /
was temporarily obscured by his
attack on the United States and
his warning against aggression"
on any of Red China's neighbors.
But further portions of his an
niversary statement have just
been released here by the official
Communist New China News
Agency. They show that guer-
rillas, sabotage and resistance to
land measures are giving the Red
regime plenty of headaches.
Control Called Top Aim.
Chou said fatty the most i'm
portant task for the regime in the
next two years is consolidating
control over newly liberated
areas" where he estimated 200, 1000
anti-Communist guerrillas are ac-
tive.
This was far different from his
speech year ago, when he de-
clared the country's No. / prob
lem would be economic improve
ment."
"China's second hercest class
struggle" Chou said, "is putting
across land reforms"
The premier and foreign min
lister declared this land reform
struggle was surpassed only by
"the war of Liberation" China S
civil war.
Sabotage Is Charged.
Chou said some landlords were
sabotaging the program by giving
away their land, killing livestock
and destroying farm implements,
houses. crops and trees.
He indirectly conceded that
farmer and landlord opposition
was strong enough to forge a
slowing up of land redistribution
In newly liberated areas. Pre-
sumably he meant West and
Southwest China. He said land
reforms will be undertaken in
such areas next year or still
later"
Chou reported $4,000 "secret
agents" had been arrested, TO
secret radio stations were seized
and II cases of international
espionage" were unearthed in the
past year. He did not elaborate
on the international espionage" !"
Chou's figure of 100000 guer-
rillaS was half the number which
Red Leader Mao TIE Tung con-
ceded in his report to the Com
munist Party last June. 1t is
also much lower than the figure
of 1.6 million anti-Comm,nist
guerrillas which the Chinese Ma
tionalists on Formosa gave out.
