Party then and some of the
writings and tenets of the
Communist Party in the past.
"You seem to forget the
change brought about under
Lenin and Stain and the
change in attitude that has
occurred here in consequence"
To this Representative Dies
replied in a statement today
as follows: II regard the last
letter of Mrs. Roosevelt as a
historic document. It shows
the thinking and attitude of
the Roosevelts with reference
to Communists and Russia. 1t
was this attitude that was re-
sponsible for the tragic blum
ders at the Yalta and Potsdam
conferences which brought
about the emergence of Rus
STA from a third-rate power to
the status of world menace.
I think Mrs. Roosevelt's letter
needs no reply since it speaks
for ITSELF"
Mr.. Dies called attention
also to his earlier statement,
namely that he had submitted
in 1941 to the Roosevelt adj
ministration list of about
1000 Communists on the Fed
eral payroll, including Alger
Hiss. Harry Dexter White,
Harold CHASER and others, and
asked that they be discharged
but that the 1000 remained
for "a little more than a dec
ade before they finally were
discharged"
In another phase of the
Roosevelt-Dies controversy, the
Texas Congressman, in his
magazine interview, said Mrs.
Roosevelt had interviewed with
him to get a clean bill of
health" from the committee
for Joseph Lash of the Amer
lean Youth Congress, though
he said she told him that Mr..
Lash had admitted to her
having been a Communist.
Mrs. Roosevelt, noting the
quotation in one of these dis
patches, said in her August
II letter to Mr.. Dies:
II never admitted to you,
because I could not have, since
Mr.. Joseph Lash never ad-
mitted to me that he had been
a Communist I knew that in
the youth organizations he had
been close to many Commu-
niSts and he had helped me
greatly to learn about Com
munist lines of thought, and
I might have told you, but Mr..
Lash was never a member of
the Communist Party"
Mrs. Roosevelt also declared
that, so far as she knew, no
White House influence-as Mr..

Germans Still Rely on Adenouer
Official Circles Indicate Belief the Chancellor Will Meet

BONN, West Germany.--The

lomatic failures with creative
ideas, patience and hope. It's
goal remains an integrated

that is unacceptable"
This goes for a national

coalition. A solution that
does not include a fair and
proper relationship between
Germany and France is "un-
thinkable."
The answer to the question,
after EDO, what?" is not a
return to the past but creative
ideas and then more creative
ideas when the first fail.
This candid resume comes
from official circles in this

NEW YORK, Aug. 30.-During
his first week in this country the
Rev. Gerald BITTERLY proved he

thugs when they try to get tough.
Two men offered Father But
terly a ride Saturday night and
when he got into their car they
tried to hold him up.
The priest, who arrived here
from Ireland last week, jumped
out of the car, dragging one of
the thugs with him. When the
second man joined the sidewalk
scuffle, the priest punched him,
too, and both men then climbed
into the Car and fed.

Political Paradox for Eisenhower
He Must Help Return Republicans to Congress- Who Blocked
His High Priority Trade Plan, and Would Do So Again

Once again a party leader
President Eisenhower in this
instances up against a ia
miliar political paradox of
election year.
This has to do with the COM
prehenSive trade program for
which the President asked
Congress last March in order
to help our allies to help them
selves and thus strengthen
their economies and relax their
dependence upon us for finan-
cial aid. He had to abandon
it. you may recall. because of
opposition within his own
party. Now the President re-
affirms his support of the pro-
gram and announces his in
tention to press for it in the
next Congress.
He also Is seeking another
Republican Congress.
The paradox Is this: How, If
he gets that. does he expect
to get the trade program which
the present Republican Con-
gress refused him? It is moth
ing but o matter of fixed polit-
ical convictions working cut
In plain arithmetic.
In the next Congress. if 1t
sh ould be Republican, the
President would find the same
two powerful figures who
blocked his trade program in
the same powerful places of
authority Representative
Dan Reed. Republican, of New
York. chairman of the House
Ways and Means Committee.
and Senator Eugene d. Milli-
kin, Republican, Of Colorado,
chairman of the Senate FL
nance Committee. Senator
Millikin continues in the next
Congress, not being up for re-
election; while Representative
Reeds reelection is consid-
cred automatic from the dis

trict he has represented for
"a years.
Below these two leaders, the
lineup within the party in
Congress on the tariff issue
will be about the same. You
may count on that.
There is one direct way for
the President to try to change
; that to his own way Of think
ing. That would be to make
an issue of the tariff within
his party and choose between
Republican candidates on the
basis of their tariff views. He
has not the slightest inten-
ton Of doing anything of the
sort, or of choosing between
Republicans on any issue.
There Is one possible result
of the election which would
give him enough votes for his
trade program. That would
be a Democratic Congress.
But he can't get mixed up in
anything like that, or even
think of it.
One other course Is open to
him as leader of the Republic
can Party. That would be to
make such an issue of foreign
trade in general terms, in
campaign speeches addressed
to the public at large. that he
would impress the people so
that they would, in time and
in turn. bring pressure on the
next Congress to do what the
President wants.
Obviously the hope that he
might stress the issue is har-
bored by some Republicans of
internationalist viewpoint who
are worried about the pros
poets Of effective action In the
next Congress. This came out
in the letter written to the
President at Denver by Harry
d. Bulls. head Of General
Mills, Inc. who said: Some

Mrs. Roosevelt and Dies Differ
Presidents Widow and ExRed Prober Exchange Letters
Disputnq Communism Issues of II Years 400
David LoWrence

A sharp exchange of letters
and statements relative to
congressional investigation of
Communist activities in the
Government IL years ago has
developed between Mrs. Frank
lin D. Roosevelt and Represent
alive Martin Dies Of Texas,
Democrat, who was chairman
Of the House Committee on
Un-American Activities from
1888 to 1945.
Mr.. Dies, in a copyrighted
interview in U. S. News &
World Report a fortnight ago.
charged that the Roosevelt
administration fought his in
veStigation of Communists and
even tried to prosecute him
personally. He said the late
President Roosevelt tried to
get him to call off his investi-
cations because Mr.. Roose-
welt told him it would hurt the
Democratic Party by alternating
liberal groups.
Consequently, Mrs. Roosevelt
wrote Mr.. Dies under the date
of August II, 1854:
II am quite sure that my
husband never said, 1T would
be bad for the Democratic
Party to ALLEVIATE elements
friendly to communism"
Mr.. Dies replied in a letter
to Mrs. Roosevelt dated August
10:
II reported my conversation
with President Roosevelt dur
ing his lifetime, and what /
stated in my interview is mere
ly a repetition of what I have
been saying for many years. A
more detailed account of what
I told the President and what
he told me may be found in
the speech which Congressman
Velde inserted September %,
1950) in the Congressional
Record"
To this Mrs. Roosevelt, on
August %, 1854, answered:
my husband is dead, and I
can't speak for him. but>I can
easily see how he might, in the
light of the day in which you
were speaking. have said what
you say he said. without mean
ing what you now imply he
meant.
1T is true there was no
hysteria in those days and he
may have felt there were a
great many liberals who were
in sympathy with certain
Communist doctrines that he
and many others might not
have wanted to antagonize.

trends were and the differ
ences between what was de-

Aside from these general
handicaps, however, the EDO
fiasco in Europe serves to en-
phasize the unhappy nature of
the very basis for the free

basis, is as it must be, the
voluntary cooperation of SOW

The inherent weaknesses of

of your friends are concerned
about the place this program
occupies for the year ahead"
The President, in a statement
from his summer headuuar-
tiers. said the trade program
would have high priority" in
his program for the next Con-
gress. and gave assurance that
his own views are still the
same as expressed in his mes
sage to Congress last March 80.
In that message, it may be
remembered, the President
recommended the comprehen-
sive foreign trade program
embodied in the report of the
special commission headed by
Clarence Randall, the steel
man. Among other things, it
called for extension of the
reciprocal trade program for
three years and for authorize
ton for further tariff cuts
within q range Of is per cent,
5 per cent q year. Senator
Millikin and Representative
Reed. who were members Of
the Ran dall Commission,
baked at such q program in
dissenting reports and their
views were shared by so many
other Republicans that the
President had to give up his
program. Instead. he had to be
content with a fiat, one-year
extension of the reciprocal
trade program. under which
there is little leeway for the
State Department to bargain
with other nations for further
tariff reductions. The. Presi-
dent got this face-saving COM
promise only through Demo-
