Rights Declarations
Discounted by Acheson

Rotary Acheson noted that "all
the Communist peoples repub-
lies. except China" list them
in their basic law guarantees.
Red system NeGates Rights
The Reds rights he said
ION paper are more extensive
than ours. For instance. they
guarantee the natural right
TO family. health and mother
hood which does not appear IN
the basic law Of the United
states or the countries Of the
British Commonwealth. except
India. which Is losing enthusi-
asm for motherhood"
But IN the Communist sys-
TEN. Mr.. Acheson pointed out
the human rights are negated
by the overriding central power
Perhaps we are less con-
scious OF the diffusion OF power
In our society until we COM
pare ourselves with a Com
munist state" he said. 1T Is
not merely the separation OF
the legislative. executive and
judicial powers OF government,
but the separation Of the gov
eminent and the sovereign, the
ofiicial and the voter.
THE idea that the voter can
turn out the government and
install another is held in q
comparatively small part OF
the world and is a TREMENDOUS
limitation upon power. One
has to experience 1t TO realize
just how great 1t is" Mr.. Ache

WILLIAMSBURG. Va. May

tending. they deceive"

tons have accepted the United
Nations universal declaration OF
human rights and n countries
have constitutional guarantees

said individuals rights have

He spoke today at colorful
ceremonies opening the Pre-

Resses declared its independence

Continental Congress pro-
claimed all Is colonies free

Mr.. Acheson, the principal
adviser to the Democratic Party
on foreign affairs, also claimed
his party had produced a
greater social and economic
revolution than the founding
fathers.
Preserving Old Rights
George Masol and Thomas
Jefferson, authors Of the Vir-
ginia Declaration Of Rights and
the Declaration of Independ-
ence, were stating nothing
new" Secretary Acheson said.
They were preserving old
rights, not asserting new ones. "
He continued: 1.-THE social

we're being sought were not so

over Herbert Hoover and the
birth of the New Deal.

o Approach Uncertain

One Of the questions is
whether the West should con-
tinue insisting on free elections
as. a basis Of German unity, as
Mr.. Adenauer demands, or con-
slider some form Of German
confederation or association, as
proposed by the Communists
Another is whether the West
should agree to a conference
before May 81, the deadline
originally set by Soviet Premier
Khrushchev.
Informants here said the
West has not yet agreed on a
timetable for the maneuvering
but shas decided to propose a
foreign ministers conference
among Britain. France, the
United States and the Soviet
Union. The proposals the West
will take to this conference are
yet to be decided upon.
In seeking some answers, Mr.
Dulles has visited London anc
Paris. In London he let it bt
known that he approved Prime
Minister Macmillan's plan tC
