Dean S Resignation
Arouses Speculation
After Earlier DeniaIs

Resignation of Arthur H. Dean
as United States envoy in Ko-
rean peace negotiations has
aroused fresh speculation today
as to his reasons. and for the
State Departments earlier vigor-
Gus denials that he would quit.
The 55-year-old Wall street
attorney, a former law partner of
Secretary of State Dulles, wrote
his resignation in a letter dated
February 26. The State Depart
ment made it public yesterday.
The letter contained no mention
of his action last December in
walking out of the preliminary
peace talks at Panmunjom after
accusing the Reds Of insulting
the United States.
AS long ago as February
there were reports that he in
tended to resign. The New York
Herald-Tribune reported on that
date that a resignation was i'm
pending. The State Department
issued an emphatic denial. It
stated that Mr.. Dean was pre-
pared to return to Korea when
ever the suspended talks might
be resumed. It announced later
that there was no change in his
status after the scheduling of q
Geneva conference on Korea.
Mr.. Deans letter of resigna-
ton explained he was forced to
give up the envoy assignment
because of the press of personal
business. Commitments in court
as a lawyer would prevent him
from going to Geneva in April
when the Korean and Indo-
China peace problems will be
discussed, he stated. He re-
called that he accepted the dip
lomatic job last August with the
understanding that he could not
serve beyond March or April.
In addition to speculation con-
corning the effects of the walk
out last December. some criti-
cism was voiced in the Senate.
Senator Welker, Republican,
Of Idaho said in a Senate speech
last January IA that Dean
seemed to be spreading a type
Of propaganda designed to bring
about the "appeasement" of Red
China. Mr.. Dean vehemently
denied this.
Senate Welker took objection
to remarks Mr.. Dean made in
an interview with the Providence
(R H. Journal.
Mr.. Dean offers the view
which has long been held by
pro-Red apologists in the State
Department that there is a
possibility that the Chinese
Communists are more interested
in developing themselves in
China than they are in inter-

national communism. the SEN
ator said.

be farther from the truth"
Mr. Dean retorted that Sen
ator Welker's attack was q
great aid to the Communists. "
and said he Is 100 per cent
against appeasement or knuck-
ling under"
In the same interview, Mr..
Dean had said. Il think COM
munism is communism" and
had advised against recognition
Of the Red Chinese government
at this time.

DR.. Kirk Doubts Mccarthy
Is Useful as Red Hunter
By the Assoe,oted Press

LOS ANGELES, April 10.-Dr.
Grayson Kirk. president of Co.
lumbia University, said yester-
day he doubted that Commu-
nists can be best ferreted out
by the type of procedure used
by the Mccarthy committee.
DR.. Kirk told a press confer
ence:
mo one wants to protect
Communists or see them pro-
tected, either in the teaching
profession or in public employ
ment.
But the job of ferreting them
out and getting rid of them can
best be accomplished by pro-
fessionals-and I mean the Fed
eral Bureau of Investigation
who are experts in securing and
evaluating evidence.
II doubt If this can be &C
complished by the type of pro-
cedure used by the Mccarthy
Committee. In this kind OF
hunting, / like to see people
shoot with a rifle and. not with
a shotgun. With professionals,
there is less danger than in
nocent careers will be blasted"

As Hearing on Reds

The threat of perjury proceed

One of them, Leo Jandreau, a

dismissed after he challenged
the validity of the resolution

He had been asked one question:
When and where he was born.

A veteran of 80 years in State

That opinion is shared rather
widely by many other political
leaders in Mr.. Velde's district
and by a lot of ordinary citizens
But not by Mr.. Allison.
I'm going to win and you
can count on it," he said.
That was in a brief interview

Edward Lamb Again
Denies Red Links
BY the Associated Press

Edward Lamb, Toledo attor-
ney and radio-t elevision opera
tor, renewed his denial of any
Communist affiliations yesterday
and declared that after five pre-
vious inquiries into the subject
this specter must be dead at
the hands of every inquisitor. F"
Mr.. Lambs disclaimer was in
an affidavit prepared for the
Federal Communications Com
mission. which said it would
hold hearing before renewing
his license to operate station
W1CU-TV at Erie. Pa.
The commission wrote Mr..
Lamb on March II that it was
in possession of Information
containing charges" which
raised questions about Mr..
Lambs previous sworn disavow-
ais, but the commission did not
say who made the charges.
In a reply which his WASH
ington representative said was
filed with the commission late
yesterday, Mr.. Lamb declared
with all the force and sincerity
that language can convey" that
he wholly forswears, rejects,
and denies any and every Com
munist attachment. affiliation,
or sympathy, of which sources
undlscloSed to him have in
formed the commission"
Attached to the reply were a
score CT affidavits and other doc
uments, including a statement

In his affidavit, Mr.. McGrath
said his entire career in public
office, which included three
terms as governor of Rhode

"disoWned and disgraced if I
were to enter into a business,
