Adenauer’s Change
Of Mind Due To
Death of Dulles
BONN, Germany, GW — Chan
cellor Konrad Adenauer said yes
terday one reason why he changed
his mind about seeking the less
powerful post of president was the
death of John Foster Dulles.
The aged Chancellor told a tu
multuous session of Parliament
that he thought that with the
death of the U. S. Secretary of
State he should retain his power
ful chancellor’s job to insure con
tinuity of Western policy in these
critical days.
But Socialist leader Erlich Ol
lenhauer argued that Adenauer’s
real reason was that he wanted
to “hold on to power under all
circumstances.”
“It was the reverse of demo
cratic principle — it was the dis
play of. the naked principle ‘I am
the state’ and ‘only I am in the
position to do what is right and
necessary,’ ” Ollenhauer de
clared.
Adenauer’s retort was that the
whole process was completely
democratic, as he had presented
his position for party endorse
ment
While some approved and others
disapproved, they wound up iji
agreement, endorsing his dcision
by what he called democratic pro
cedures.
“I have in my whole long life,
even in Nazi times, adhered to
democratic principles,” said the
83-year-old Chancellor. As for the
charge he sought personal power
he replied that with power went
responsibilities and he had acted
as he did in fulfillment of his
heavy responsibilities.
