director in 1851 to waive the re-
quirement that Ian Woodner put
up a performance bond in con-
struction of a defense housing
project in this State, Senate
probers have disclosed here.
The story was revealed yes
terday during the testimony of
Mr.. Woodner, Washington and
New York builder architect, be-
fore the Senate Banking Com
mittee, headed by Senator Cape
hart, Republican, of Indiana.
Mr.. Woodner, who built the
50 million apartment-hotel which
bears his name at 1886 Sixteenth

MED he had discussed the waiver
with Mr.. Powell, who resigned
under fire last April as assistant

Mr.. Martin, addressing a G. o.

Senate races in Ohio and New

Mr.. Nixon, alluding to Mon
days Maine election in which
the State elected the first DEM
ocratic Governor in 20 years,
said, "One of our major dangers
is disunity'in the Republican Or

crucial non-presidential. ballot

The voters, Mr.. Martin said,

they want it to be sabotaged

Mr.. Nixon also contended a

He said:
Don't let the opposition cam

One might have foreseen, per-

be in Bonn today talking Things
over with West German Chan

however, that his trip was not

point none of them has ventured
the most unofficial opinion on
what the Secretary is up to.
Change of Mind Seen.
One thing, however, seems Ger
tain: For some reason Mr..
Dulles has changed his mind
about the role the United States
must play in reshaping Western
Europe policy since the demise

Up to this point, the role had
been of an interested but skep-

statements from Washington
made it clear that Washington
intended to sit on the sidelines
for the time being and let the
Europeans themselves carry the

Dulles Begins Talks
With Adenouer in Bonn

BONN, Germany, Sept. Is (P).
Secretary of State Dulles de-
clared here today IAN alternative
must be found" to bring West
Germany into the Western alli-
ance as an equal partner.
Arriving by plane for emer-
gency consultations in Germany
and Britain, the American diplo-
matte chief was greeted by Chan
cellor Konrad Adenauer. Mr..
Adenauer arranged for almost
immediate private discussions
with him in search of a substi-
tute for the dead European De-
tense Community army treaty.
The talks with Mr.. Dulles will
be decisive for Germany's fate,
the 78-year-old Chancellor had
told Deputies before departing
for the airport from a parlia-
mentary debate.
Interested In Adenauer Views.
Mr.. Dulles made it clear in a
statement at the airport that he
was interested perhaps more in
what Mr.. Adenauer has to say
than in any idea he may be
bringing with him.
MIR. Dulles commented, for
example, that Mr.. Adenauer's
government has consistently
followed such enlightened pol
icieS that its views must now
command great respect"
Mr.. Adenauer, long an advo-
cate of European unity, thanked
Mr.. Dulles for coming in the
present crisis and said. sit does
seem that the best Europeans
come from the United States"
Dulles Statement.
Surrounded by allied and Ger
man officials, and accompanied
by q State Department staff of
five, Mr.. Dulles told the assem-
blage:
It have come to discuss with
Chancellor Adenauer the means
of restoring sovereignty to the
federal republic of Germany and
bringing Germany as an equal
partner into the society of the
free. Such action has been
suspended while various parlia-
ments dealt with the treaties
which contemplated that Ger
man sovereignty should be re-
turned within the framework OF
an European Defense Com
munity.
"Since that program has been
halted, at least temporarily. an
alternative must be found.
"The postwar federal republic
has consistently followed such
enlightened policies that its
views must now command great
respect. Therefore I come to
Bonn for an exchange of views
with the chancellor.
Before final decisions are
reached, there will of course be
further exchanges of views be-
tween all who are genuinely con-
cerned with the peace, security
and freedom of Europe"
Mr.. Dulles flew to Bonn in a
United States Air Force DC-6
After his brief airport speech
he joined United States High
Commissioner James B. Conant
to drive to the Bonn chancellory
for the talks with Mr.. Adenauer
He will fly to London tomor-
