Prescription for 1855
" ilss Assosiaisd prsss

Secretary of state Dulles de-
clared yesterday the Free Worlds
ability to bounce back from nd
yersity III 1854 has fostered !
unity and strength Tor dealing
With the Communists III 1865
AS 4 result. Z AZ told i news
conference the danger q gen
eral war recedes.
hi. Dulles added 4 word Of
caution:
But we must beware Of over
confidence. Hostile forces remain
strong and irnplacable and they
are operating with even greater
guile than heretofore.
Peace Calls Tor Sacrifices.
The dulles prescription for
1855, as he voiced II In his pre-
pared year and review state
ment, Is: Vigilance and unity.
Peace viii never be won II
men reserve for war their great
est efforts, " he commented.
Peace, too, requires well direct
ed and sustained sacriflcial en-
deavor.s
Summing up the events Of
1864. Mr.. Dulles said. there has
been substantial gain. He also
cited two setbacks the Indo-
China truce which divided the
area with the Communists; and
Frances rejection Of the Euro
pean Defense Community which
would have created 4 one uniform
West European army.
Sees Western Victories.
But even from tl1ese adverse
ties, he said. the West was able
To wrest victories. Out Of 1ndo-
China came the Manila defense
pact. he said. and out Of EDCs
death came the Western Euro
pean Union plan approved yes
terday By the French National
Assembly.
Thus when there has been adj
yersity the Free World has shown
4 capacity to react to 1t, Mr..
Dulles declared. Then he totted
up solutions which the Free
World had found TO unity threat
ening controversies:
The Italy, Yugoslavia dispute
over Trieste. the Britain Egypt
quarrel over the Suez base, the.
Britain-Iran oil row and the
France Germany discord on the
Saar.
Cites NATO Decisions.
Going Oh ia this vein. Mr..
Dulles declared the North Attain
tic Treaty ORGANIZATION made
some far-reaching decisions.
Similarly, lie said, the Al Amer
lean states afiiryaed at Caracas
their determination To keep com
munisrn out 81 the western
Hemisphere. Middle East de-
lenses began I'd take shape with
the Turkey Pakistan pact, and
Western Pacific security was
strengthened with the Manila
Treaty and United States agree-
ments with South Korea and
Nationalist China.
Al to the United Nations Mr..

Inquiries Get No Answer.

The latest was in October. And
like the others made before BY
Ambassador Charles =. Bohlen
or his aides, II got no response
Then came the note yesterday
from the Soviet foreign minis
try. II was understood to have
offered to release the three
Americans. But IL was also un-.
derstood to have suggested that
the United States do something
in return.
There was considerable spec
ulation about what that could
be. One theory was that 1t had
to do with the is to 20 Russian
sailors interned on Forlnosa and
reported seeking asylum in the
United States.
These seallaen are among 40
crewnlen from the Russian mer-
chant vessel Tilapse. captured
BY the Nationalist Chinese last
October lii the Formosa Straits.
The Soviet Union accused the
United States Of having had q
hand la this seizure because
the United states It'll Fleet Is

the State Department rejected
that accusation.

partlnents are said to be weigh
