His ideas and ideals on pub

printed speech he made at At

a decade later. His address was
a reply to attacks on the in

opened with

James Reston in the NetD York Times Of Sunday:

matte laundering. IS. This is the planned mis-

latest blunder raise the gravest doubt as to
whether there is any further excuse for his exist

What matters most now is the implication
that the strategy of atomic retaliation is still
the major weapon Of y. S. foreign policy"
IT WOULD BE useless to 60 further. That the Dulles

seen no reason to either explain or withdraw his claims

Editorial
Mr.. DULLES

SECRETARY OF State John Foster Dulles has commit
ted another blunder. Just how a man of such brliance, train
ing, ability, and with a background Of SO many years Of care
full study of the diplomatic ways can commit SO many blund-
ers is astonishing, to say the the least. The last of these ap-
peared in a narticle in Life magazine last week.
THE COMPLETELY damaging article, SO far as Mr..
Dulles is concerned, represents him as taking full credit and
pride, for practicing the art" Of diplomacy by leading the
United States on three occasions to the brink of war. Mr..
Dulles put it this way:
The ability to get to the verge without getting into
war is the necessary art"
THIS STATEMENT has created such a storm of protest
throughout the nation and the world that it would be some
thing short of a miracle if Secretary Dulles can survive it,
especially during an election year. The article was intended
evidently as a boost to the Republican administration, but
it has backfred because of the way in which it was done.
AN INDICATION Of the serious inroads it has made
and the storm it has aroused can be cleaned from the COM
ments coming from all quarters: Senator Humphrey of Min
nesota on three occasions rose in the Senate to attack bitterly
the Dulles policy. Newspaper comment shows the thinking on
this matter.
The Neo York Times:
1t is one thing to proclaim a considered
policy and quite another thing for the Ameri-
can Secretary oof State to cast in the role Of an
artist Juggling with threats of war"
The Washington Post:
Dragging seldom makes or holds friends 1t
(the ~article) assumes that MI Dulles, by some
undisclosed ominscience, was able to control
all the factors that governed whether the world
would have been plunged into nuclear war.
