In Northern Michigan

from the Greenlease ransom
money has turned up in Petos-
key, Mich, and been traced to
Manton, Mich, the police chief
at Petoskey told The Star today.
Police Chief Philo Wakeford of
Petoskey said FBI agents spent
most of last week in the North
ern Michigan town. trying to
trace the bill. The FBI has de-
clined comment.
Chief Wakeford said the bill

Krauser, who operates a group
of cabins. She got if from Nor
man Clark, a rural mail truck
driver, in payment for his rent.
Cashed His Pay Check.
The police chief said Mr..
Clark, a member of a PetoSkey
family, got the bill late last
month when he cashed his pay
check at a gasoline filling sta
ton at Manton, rs miles away.
ALI operators of business en-
terprises and all banks in Mich
igan, as we'll as other States,
have been given lists of serial
numbers for the missing 1903, 720
of the 100000 paid by Robert
C. Greenlease October 4 for the
return of his son Bobby.
Police arrested Carl Austin
Hall and Mrs. Bonnie Brown
Heady in st. Louis October 8
and recovered almost half of the
ransom from Hall. Both the
admitted kidnapers denied

of the missing money. At one
time, Hall said he thought he
lost it on drunken spree, but
later he was quoted as saying
he thought Mrs. Heady lost it
while drunk.
On Direct Lin" to Canada.

for the money across the coun-
try. Manton, to which the
Petoskey bill has been traced, is
on a direct line to Canada on
Route 81. PetoSkey itself is
about 100 miles from Canada.
There have been rumors re-
Gently that the missing ransom
money went into ChiCago's un-
derworld, where it may have
been sold by professional
fences" for 80 to so cents on
the dollar.
According to the Associated
Press, st. Louis authorities said

lin Michigan are part of the ran
som money that Hall and Mrs.

Mr.. Wilson foresaw no posi-

said, should be postponed until

Pusey Tells Mccarthy
He Is Not Aware of
Any Red al Harvard
Furry Not Recently
Connected With Purty,
He Says He Is Told
By the Associated Press

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. g.
President Nathan M. Pusey of
Harvard University told Senator
Mccarthy, Republican, Wiscon-
sin, today: Il am not aware that
there is any person among the
Harvard faculty who is a
m EN- ber of the Communist
Party"
DR.. Pusey, conducting a news
conference unprecedented for a
president of Harvard, made pub
lie the text of a telegram sent
to the Senator in reply to one
last week in which Senator Nc
Carthy asked his attitude "to-
ward retaining teachers who re-
fuse to state whether they are
Communists :" .....
Senator McCarthy'S telegram
specifically referred to testimony
in secret session of Prof. Wen
dell Furry, who, he said, had re-
fused to answer questions con-
corning Communist affiliation
prior to March /, 1851.
Prof. Furry was placed on three
years probation last May by the
Harvard Corp. DR.. PuSey told
Senator Mccarthy he couldn't
say whether Harvard would take
any further action "since there
are conflicting reports of what
DR.. Furry said before your COM
mittee."
Harvard'S Position Emphasized.
"On the basic question of Har-
wards attitude toward commu-
nism, DR.. Pusey told his news
conference, there should be alb
solutely no misunderstanding
Harvard is absolutely, unalter-
ably, finally opposed to commu-
nism. 1t exists for the sake OF
free inquiry and the free mind
You can't be a Communist
and have the necessary indie
pendence of judgment that a pro-
fesSor in this institution or any
other institution, has to have"
In his wire to Senator McCar-
thy, DR.. Pusey said:
Harvard is unalterably op-
posed to communism. It is dedi-
Gated to free inquiry by free men
I am in full agreement with the
opinion publicly stated by my
predecessor James B. Conant)
and the Harvard Corp. that a
member of the Communist Party
is not fit to be on the faculty
because he has not the necessary
independence of thought and
judgment.
DeplOres 5th Amendment Use
II am not aware that there is
any person among the 5000
members of the Harvard faculty
who is member of the Commu-
mist Party. We deplore the use
of the Fifth Amendment for the
reason set forth in the corpora
tion's statement of May %, 1858,
but we do not regard the use of
this constitutional safeguard as
a confession of guilt.
MY information is that DR..
Furry has not been connected
with the Communist Party in
recent years. My information
is also that DR.. Furry has never
given secret material to unau-
thorized persons or sought to
indoctrinate his students. Since
there are conflicting reports of
what DR.. Furry said before your
committee at the private session
and since you have not made the
complete testimony public, I am
quite unable to comment on the
significance of his latest refusal
to answer questions. nor can ]
say whether any further action
will be taken by us concerning
DR.. Furry"

DefenseIess West

Farley, Dulles Says
Secretary Also Declares
U. S. Has Not Ruled Out
Red Chino Recognition
By Gornett D. Horner

Secretary of State Dulles said
today that RuSSia's leaders are
bluntly demanding that the free
world nations give up their de-
fense planning in order to gain
the privilege" of comforting with
them.
The Secretary told a news
conference he hoped the Soviet
demand may be just diplomatic
maneuvering, but in any case is
mot acceptable as far as the
United States is concerned"
Mr.. Dulles remarks came in a
prepared statement summing up
several days of studying a So
Wet note received last Tuesday
which turned down a Western
proposal for a Big -Four confer
ence on Germany.
Backs British in Trieste.
At his news conference, Mr.
Dulles also.
l. Left open the door to the
possibility of eventual American
recognition of Communist China
but said this is out of the queS-
ton as long as the Chinese Reds
are promoting aggression and
otherwise violating United Ma
tions principles.
2. Expressed complete conf
dence in the British commander
in Trieste and hopes that five
nation conference on Trieste
still may be held despite diff
culties raised by violent demon
strationS in Trieste and some
Italian cities.
8. Hinted that the Western
powers may proceed without
Russia to make some vital de-
ciSions about the future of West
ern Germany.
Mr.. Dulles news conference
followed a week end at his re-
mote island in Lake Ontario
where, he said, the weather
forced him to spend most of the
time in his cabin. He said he
used that time to ponder the
meaning of last weeks Soviet
note, leading up to his state
ment today.
Describing the Moscow mes
sage as much more than a
brush-off" of the American
British-French proposal for a
conference this week on Ger
many, the Secretary said, "It
is a coldly presented statement
of Soviet demands"
He Solemnly said the Soviet
demands "are couched in Ian
guage that bears little resem-
blance to that normally en-
ployed as between nations which
are at peace"
Unpleasant Note.
He added that they are
backed by an unpleasant ref
erence, twice repeated, that fail
ure on our part to accept the
Soviet demands will increase
the threat of a new world war. "
Asked what he thought of the
prospects for peace in view of
the Soviet attitude, Mr.. Dulles
said that question should be put
to the Kremlin. But he empha-
sized that there is no alteration
in this Governments own de-
termination to have peace.
Mr.. Dulles listed the Soviet
demands, which were presented
as pre-conditionS for the pro-
posed conference to seek unif1ca-
ton of Germany, as:
l. Cessation of meric an
British-French talks on the
ground that such "collusion'
makes it harder for the Kremlin
to deal with us separately"
2. Scrapping of plans for a
European Defense Community
and unif1cation of Western Eu-
rope.
8. Any agreement on Germany
unity should ''prolong the life
of the Communist regime of East
Germany"
