Mr.. Dulles said he hopes for

this cannot be dictated from
abroad or brought about sud-
denly.

during his Far Eastern trip he
will have a chance to talk to
Indian Prime Minister Java
harlal Nehru and may suggest
some notifications in American
policy toward India, although on
the whole the United States has
adopted a reasonable attitude
toward the New Delhi govern
ment. Mr.. Dulles said that
while there are superficial irri-
tations between India and the
United States. there is no reason
why the two countries should
not be on a basis Of friendship
and confidence.
Mr.. Dulles, on his Far Eastern
trip, will attend a meeting of
the Manila Pact Council in Ka-
rachi, Pakistan, and will visit
a total of 10 countries, includ-
ing two that he has not been
in before-Ceylon and Indonesia.

Dulles Rejects
Foes Charge
of Optimism
BY JAMES E.. ROPER

Secretary of State Dulles to-
day rejected Democratic charges
that he has been too optimistic
in appraising the success Of
American foreign policy in cop
ing with Russia.
Mr.. Dulles told a news con-
ference that his testimony be-
fore the Senate Foreign Rela-
,tions Committee on Friday and
his speech in Philadelphia on
Sunday strike a fair balance OF
the international situation.
Mr.. Dulles said the Soviet
Union seems to have made a per-
manent change in its policies
but any American complacency
would be disastrous.
He repeated his contention
that the Soviet switch justifies
the administrators request fol
authority to make long-range
foreign aid commitments. He
said the chances that Congress
will give the administration some
such authority are good.
Discusses U. S. Position
Mr.. Dulles. in his last meet
ing with reporters before he
leaves on Friday for a Far East
ern trip. spoke at length on
Americas position in relation to
Russia in the continuing cold
war. On Friday, he told the
Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee that the United States
was better of now than it was
a year ago.
Democrats generally attacked
this as overly optimistic and
perhaps. politically inspired.
The first question at his news
conference today was whether
he thought he had been toe
optimistic.
Mr.. Dulles said he did moi
want to turn his press conference
into an arena for political con.
In the past 10 years, he con.
tinued. very considerable result.

and Greece-and did not need
to mention that these problems
were handled first by Democratic
administrations. Mr.. Dulles said
the results have justified the
sacrifices in blood and treasure
that the American people have
made.
The first round is over, Mr..
Dulles continued. The second
round is just beginning, he said,
and may be far different from
the first.
But he stressed that the con-
tinuing purpose of the Soviet
Union is of a predatory charac-
ter. 1t involves guile but perhaps
less force. he added.
When asked whether Amer
ica's overseas economic programs
have become more important
than military defenses overseas,
Mr.. Dulles said that it would be
reckless for us to acquiesce in
any substantial reduction in
overseas military strength.
Russia in Transition
Mr.. Dulles said the Soviet is
in transition stage. but has not
gone SO far in the new direction
that it could not quickly 60 back
to the old. He emphasized, how
ever, that United States studies
of the just-ended Communist
Party Congress in Moscow in
dictate that the change in Soviet
policy is permanent.
Mr.. Dulles also discussed:
/. Middle East-The United
States, Great Britain and France
are reaching increasing agree
ment on lines of action to be
taken in case of Israeli-Arab
fighting. Mr.. Dulles said this
applied not only to the military
aspects Of the problem. He said
that Israel is a ward of the
United Nations and so is pc
culiarly subject to u. N. interest.
He will lunch tomorrow with
U. N. Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold and discuss Mr..
Hammarskjold's proposal for the
Middle East.
Mr.. Dulles was asked what
happened to a proposed Middle
Eastern trip by Vice President
Nixon. Mr.. Dulles replied that
it was not practical for Mr..
Nixon to leave while Congress
was in session and after ad-
journment. he may have some
other tasks.
