Accusation Of Spectacle
He accused the Soviet Union
OF promoting a meeting that
would be merely a spectacle
without accomplishing any
thing significant. The United
States is holding out for one

important issues.
1t would be of dubious wis

reuniflcation. This would, in
effect, bury the results of the
first summit meeting and set
a bad precedent, he said.

question whether it represents
the best way to proceed.
The traditional diplomatic
method is better and more de-

believes. But If trip to the

Mr.. Dulles said.
The danger in the present

that spectacular summit pro-

ones. But he added the belief

people of the world will come to
recognize that the more sober
and realistic American pro-
posals wage peace more effec-
lively.
On other matters Mr.. Dulles

He regrets the violent words

does not think the real danger
to peace there can be measured
by the propaganda.

In Miami last night, Col.

accusations that he organized

get the Channel 10 award. He

the ousted commissioner, q
Florida Democrat appointed by
President Eisenhower. Repre-

Although he charged the sub

Mr.. Baker said he did not "con-

and improvident." In his letter
of resignation, Mr.. Mack con-

Wisconsin authorities were
reported today to have filed
extradition papers here against
o United Auto Workers men,
Der, John Gunaca, in the event
he comes here to testify in the
Senate Rackets Committee in
quify into the Kohler strike.
il was reliably reported that
the district attorney of Sheboy-
gan County. Wis, had filed q
request with the Metropolitan
Police Force Fugitive Squad for
Mr.. Gunaca's arrest.
The reported request charged
the Mount Clemens Mich
unionist with two counts of
assault with intent to do bodily
harm.
Neither police officials here
nor David j. Weber. Sheboygan
district attorney, would confirm
or deny the report.
Now a Cause CeIebre
The Gunaca case has be-
come a cause celebre in the last
four years. The unionist was
accused of beating up a father
and son, William Bersch, ST.,
and jr., on July 4, 1854. Both
were nonstrikers at the Kohler
plant. The aged father died
four months later of a heart
attack.
Wisconsin authorities, seek
ing to arrest Mr.. Gunaca i'm
mediately after the attack,
found he had left the State
and returned to Michigan. His
extradition was requested, but
Michigan Gov. G. Mennen Will
liams refused to extradite him
on grounds that it would be
impossible to impanel an i'm
partial jury in Sheboygan
owing to strong attitudes taken
on both sides Of the Kohler
strike issue.
When the Senate Rackets
Committee hearings opened,
the possibility of Mr.. Gunaca's
appearance here was raised. He
is regarded as a key figure
in the matter of violence aris-
ing out Of the strike.
Kennedy Won't Talk
Chief Committee Counsel
Robert F. Kennedy would nei-
ther confirm nor deny reports
that the unionist had been
subpoenaed.
But Emil Macy, secretary
treasurer of the JAW. who is
attending the hearings. and
Mr.. Gunaca's lawyer in De-
troit. Charles Marston. both
said Mr.. Gunaca had been sub
poenaed.
There was some doubt about
the efficacy of extradition pro-
ceedings against a man under
congressional subpoena, but
the consensus seemed to be
that extradition could be OBJ
tanned.
Can't Guarantee Protection
Mr.. Kennedy, discussing the
hypothetical possibility of Mr..
Gunaca's appearance here, said
he could not guarantee the
unionist protection from such
action. Senator Goldwater, Re-
publican of Arizona. said by
contrast that he had legal
opinion that Mr.. Gunaca would
be in Washington under pro-
tective custody" and could not
be extradited.
Senator Goldwater said that
II his information was wrong
and extradition was possible. he
