"The final treaty is not the

of any single nation. No nation

He said it was not possible to

One of the big problems, he
said, was reparations. Japan sim
ply does not have the resources
to pay the countries its troops
overran, and the United States,
having put So billion into the
Japanese economy during the oc-
cupation, is not disposed now to
pay japanese reparations direct

Yet, Mr.. Dulles continued, a
formula was found which gives
moral satisfaction to the position
of the invaded peoples and, while
its terms probably will not produce

clusion OF a peace treaty with
Japan"
This indicated that Washington
and Manila have at last come to
agreement about the japanese
treaty and the Philippines will
sign it despite some bitter COM
plants about the lack of war
damage guarantees.
The revised final" text of the
japanese pact opened the door to
possible future collections Of repa-
Irations from Japan--a limited
concession to demands made by
the Philippines, Indonesia, Burma
and other nations ravaged by Jap
anese forces in World War II.
The United States-Philippines
pact, covering only one page Of
tight script, has nine articles.
Armed Attack Is Defined.
The first three renew guaran-
tees of peaceful settlements Of
disputes, pledge self help and
mutual aid to build up their de-
Ifensive power" and promise to
consult together" whenever the
independence of either nation is
threatened.
Following Article Four, pledging
action to meet common danger,
the treaty defines an armed at
tack as one which would occur on
the metropolitan territory of
either of the parties, or on the
island territories under its juris-
diction in the Pacific or on Its
armed forces, public vessels or
aircraft in the Pacific"
The text then reaffirms the OBJ
legations of the two countries TO
the United Nations, provides for
lratif1cations. states the pact shall
remain in force indefinitely" and
declares that the Philippines gov
lernment shall be the official de-
pository for the treaty.

John Foster Dulles, chief Ameri-
can negotiator of the japanese

peace treaty, served notice in a
radio address last night that the
United States intends to stand by
the terms of this draft.
Mr.. Dulles said he hopes the
Soviet delegation to San Francisco
will not be ''wrecking crew." but
added that if they take that course
I'VE are confident that they would
fail"
Mr.. Dulles reported for the first
time officially that Soviet Com
munistS have been conducting a
war-of-nerves against the treaty
and even suggesting that it may
be countered by their violence. -
He did not expand on this point.
But he declared that SO MANY
World War II Allies will sign the
treaty at San Francisco that
there will be no doubt in any
quarter as to either the fact of
peace or as to the terms OF
peace"
The public report from Mr..
Dulles came right on top of an
announcement from Communist
China that it will refuse to rec
lognize the San Francisco confer

Chang Kidnop Figure Assumes
Key Role in Truce Negotiations
Maj. Gen. Hsieh Fung
Believed Real Power
In Red Delegation
BY the Associated Press

MUNSAN. Korea, Aug. 16.-A
Red Chinese general who re-
portedly figured in the celebrated
1896 kidnapping of Generalissimo
Chi1ang Kai<shek was projected
today into key role in the
KaeSong armiStice talks.
He is Mai. Gen. Hsieh Fang,
one of the two Chinese negotia-
TORS on the Communist delegation
North Korean Maj Gen. Lee Song
Cho and Hsieh were named to
the subcommittee which will sit
down tomorrow with two U. N.
delegates to try to break the dead
lock over a buffer zone in Korea.
2 Points of Importance.
Hsieh's Importance in these
proceedings shapes up in two
ways.
D He has been tabled by Of
ficials of the U. N. command as
the real power on the Communist
truce delegation.
CD Red China is reported au-
thoritatively to be anxious to get
out of the war that is costing
more than it wants to pay.
Only this week the official
spokesman for the U. N. command
put the finger On Hseih as the
policy maker of the Red delega-
ton.
Brig. Gen. William P. Nuckols
described Hseih as the man who
gives the nod" to North Korean
1t. Gen. Nam II.
Gen. Nuckols said Gen. Nam.
senior Red delegate, frequently
looks to Hseih during the talks
for concurrence on the discus
sionS.
Gen. Nuckols said Hseih was
playing an outwardly unobtrusive
role in the discussions, but added
that ''he certainly is playing an
part
During the talks Hseih and
Gen. Nam II frequently exchanged
written messages.
Background Data Meager.
Authentic information here on
Hsieh's background is meager. He
is reported to have studied in the

CATION" 1t was indicated that
Mr. Geiger resigned few months
ago from the ECA.
Mr.. Canning also named as a
member of the student Commu-
mist group in New York Louis
Balamuth and said he was sur
prised to read in the newspapers
a few years ago that Balamuth
had been associated with the
atomic energy program at the
University of Chicago. He added
that he did not know where Bala-
muth is now.
When asked if Balamuth had
been active in the Communist
Party, Mr.. Canning testified that
he served as chairman of the cell.
Other Persons Mentioned.
Mr.. chambers described to the
commNsee some of his work as
an underground operative here
and mentioned the names of the
persons connected with the in
.stitute in reciting efforts to en-
list Duggan into the espionage
apparatus.
He testified that in 1897 he OBJ
tanned an introduction to Fred
erick Vanderbilt Field in an effort
ito get Fields support in enlisting
.Duggan into the apparatus.
He said j. Peters, who headed
the espionage undertaking, told
him that Field was a member of
the underground unit of the
American Community Party and
that Barnes also was a member
of the unit.
He testified that at his request
Field came to Washington and
talked with Duggan. Later, he
added, Field told him that he
could do nothing, since Duggan
was already connected with an
espionage apparatus headed by
Hede Massing. Miss Massing has
previously testified in the current
inquiry about recruiting Duggan
into her spy apparatus.

to have protested to the United
States against the naming of one

SAL IN THE ENGLISH CHAN
MEL. Aug. 16.-Twenty Epslish
Channel swimmers plYnzsed into
calm seas at Cap Gri Nez this
morning and started Sptashlng
for the English coast. H~>.
In the first four hours, with
leading swimmers slightly more
than Z miles out in the cold water,
the contest became an Egyptian
French SHOW.
Three powerful Egyptians stick
ing closely together-Lt. Hassan
Add ell Rehim, who won a similar
race last year; Saied el Araby
and Hassam Hammad-were out
in front. They were being chased
closely by the Frenchmen Roger
LIE Morvan and Louis Bombard.
Swimmers of eight other ma
tions tra.led behind, conserving
their strength for Furnishing
sprints when they approach the
cliffs of Dover.
Seven of the competitors were
women and the early leaders in
their division were the 22-year-
old Argentinian girl, Enriqueta
Duarte and Winnie Roach of
Toronto.
Easing to One Side.
Miss Roach was ahead at noon,
but observers felt that Miss
Duarte had planned her race more
skillfully. The Argentinian girl
and the three Egyptians were cas-
ing of to one side of the main
group. Pilots said they were
gambling on getting into a tide
which should sweep them west
ward in the afternoon.
The race. for prizes totaling
$1,000 ($l9,600, is sponsored by
the Daily Mail.
1t was a striking spectacle on
the unusually calm surface Of the
Channel. More than SO boats fol-
lowed the swimmers as they
famed away from the French
coast.
Conditions were pronounced al
most ideal, and forecasts said the
Channel, where the weather is
notoriously unpredictable, would
probably spring no surprises this
afternoon and evening.
The swimmers took off from the
tiny beach in the shadow of the
bluff named Cap Girls Nez-Cape
Grey Nose-which is still clut-
tered with the wreckage of Ger
man shore defenses from World
War II. 1t was as close as the
Germans ever got to England.

fore the August Is. debut against

Some miscues could be blamed
on leg-weariness. malady affiict-
ing most players. and Ball hopes
to cure this by cutting the drills
to one day after Wednesday.
The Redskins missed some
blocks Saturday and pulled a few
skulls. and while the scrimmage
was entertaining for the fans it
wasn't up to Balls standards. He
figures the men have been here
long enough to know and remem-
Der their assignments. and that
they are in good enough physical
condition to carry them out.

show it was no fluke.

he hurdled Paul Lipscomb and
