Ref uses To Take
Notice of Chou
By Thbe Associated Press
GENEVA - East-West negotia-
tions for setting up peace talks on
Indochina entered a decisive phase
yesterday as United States Sec-
retary of State Dulles prepared, to
leave tomorrow without having ex-
changed a word with Red China's
foreign minister Chou En-lai.
Representatives of the Big Four,
North and South Korea and Red
China met for 2% hours yester-
day on Korea. Assistant U.S. Sec-
retary of State Walter S. Robert-
son described the discussions as
"an informal exchange of views"
and said no decisions were reach-
ed. He added that the group prob-
ably would meet again on a later
date.
* * *
THE SEVEN - NATION parley
was decided upon at a meeting
of the 16 nations which fought in
Korea. The conference has been
unable to reach any agreement on
unification of Korea.
Dulles has refused to take
any recognition of Chou at the
conference. In regular sessions
he is seated behind Chou but
studiously ignores him. Dulles
never has been introduced to
Chou or spoken a word to him.
Dulles met with Soviet Foreign
Minister Molotov on the proposals
by the United States to establish
a pool of atomic materials for
peaceful purposes. It was the sec-
ond such meeting this week.
A communique issued by the
U.S. delegation indicated no con-
clusions had been reached. The
communique said a reply to an
earlier American note handed over
by Molotov at the first meeting
with Dulles will be studied further
in Washington.

NGUYEN Quoc Dinh, the Viet-

stated that it is not essential to
the investigative process that a
person summoned before a legis-
lative committee be deprived of
constitutional rights, the right
to cross-examine witnesses or
the right to call witnesses in his
own behalf.
Signers of the statement in-
luded Probate Judge Patrick H.
O'Brien of Wayne County, Harold
Cranefield, general counsel for the
UAW-CIO and Edward Turner,
president of the Michigan branch
of the National Association for
"Advancement of Colored People.

Blast Clardy
Committee
Hit Publicity
Drive of Group
Top leaders of the United Auto
Workers yesterday charged Rep.
Kit Clardy's House Un-American
Activities Committee, which opens
hearings in Detroit Monday, with
being politically motivated by the
GOP.
According to Detroit Free Press
reports, the strongly-worded nine-
page statement was signed by Wal-
$er P. Reuther, president of the
IUAW and CIO; Emil Mazey, UAW
secretary-treasurer; John W. Liv-
ingston and Richard T. Gosser,
UAW vice-presidents.
I * * *
THE BLAST accused the Com-
mittee of "conducting a reckless
drive for headlines and personal
political advantage and carrying
on an immoral campaign of in-
timidation."
Noting that the Committee's
three other visits to Michigan
were timed either to elect
Republican candidates or to
"smear" Democrats, Reuther
charged that this investigation
is timed for the "convenience of
; Rep. Clardy's reelection cam-
paign."
The UAW considers the Com-
mittee's Detroit hearings "regret-1
table" and unnecessary. Continu-
Ing, it said that they will not pro-
dpce anything that will weaken
Communism or strengthen the na-
ion.
Reuther and his UAW aides
said they would "sincerely urge"
any witnesses called before the
Committee to avoid the use of
the Fifth Amendment "if it is

elude two telephone talks be-
tween Stevens and Army Coun-
selor John G. Adams late last
November about McCarthy's re-
action to the possible removal
of Maj. Gen. Kirke B. Lawton
as commander of Ft. Monmouth.
He said these and another mon-
itored call between StevensdandE
McCarthy last Nov. 7 should be
"very illuminating." ,
HE WAS referring to Pvt. G.!

sultant of the subcommittee until,
he was drafted last November.
The Washington Evening Star
said, meanwhile, that Vice
President Nixon had told one of
its reporters that the hearings
were getting to the ridiculous,
stage.
Nixon could not be reached im-
mediately for comment, but the
Star quoted him as expressing con-'
latest evidence of great congres-
sional anxiety over the whole Indo-r
china question, especially on the
point of whether the United States
should dispatch its own armed!
forces to aid the embattled French
and Indochinese.
Rep. Vorys of Ohio, a senior
GOP member of the House For-

ed that committee would write re-
strictions on the use of American
troops in combat zones despite
President Eisenhower's opposition
