Articles by Acheson and Hiss Seen as
Demo Drive for Left-Wing Candidate
The Senate Republican Policy*
Committee staff says it views
magazine articles by Dean Ache
son and Alger Hiss as signaling a
drive to “capture” the 1956 Demo
cratic presidential nomination for
a “left winger.”
Meanwhile, Democratic Nation
al Chairman Paul M. Butler said
Friday night “a desperate Repub
lican Party has already indicated
the kind of false charges it would
hurl” in the campaign ahead.
There was no indication that
Butler, speaking to a University
of North Carolina Young Demo
cratic rally at Chapel Hill, was
referring to the GOP Policy Com
mittee “memorandum” which was
made public in Washington Fri
day.
That memo, which said indivi
dual senators on the committee
were not necessarily responsible
for statements it contains, said:
“The left wing Democrats have
opened the campaign of 1956 with
two magazine articles—published
almost simultaneously—by Alger
Hiss and Dean Acheson . . . the
appearance of the articles suggests
that the two friends are together
again. Their efforts are a clear
signal that a determined effort
will be made to capture the Demo
cratic nomination for a left wing
er.”
Acheson was secretary of state
in the Democratic administration
of former President Harry S. Tru
man. Hiss, a former State Depart
ment employe, served a federal
prison sentence after his convic
tion of perjury for denying he
ever passed government secrets to
a Communist spy ring.
The memo referred to an article
by Acheson in the November is
sue of Harper’s magazine and a
piece by Hiss in the current edi
tion of Pocketbook magazine. Both
deal with foreign policy.
Acheson wrote that the Demo
crats are better able to manage
foreign affairs than are the Re
publicans. He also claimed the
>
Democrats are more forward
looking in this field.
In his article, Hiss disputed con
tentions by some GOP leaders that
concessions given to the Russians
at the 1945 Yalta conference of
Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin
“resulted in Soviet leadership in
eastern Europe” and the Commu
nist victory in China.
Butler told his college audience
the Republican Party used “smear
tactics” against Democratic can
didates in 1952 and 1954. He said
“the combination of a strong Dem
ocratic trend and a badly split
' Republican Party can conceivably
| drive a now desperate Republican
Party to the same kind of lovyj
level campaigning” in 1956.

RAF Pilot Survives
Supersonic Bail - Out
LONDON, UF>—The British Air
Ministry says an RAF pilot is
believed to have bailed out of his
crippled jet fighter at supersonic
speed and survived.
Flying Officer Henry Molland,
22, gave this account:
He went into a dive at 40,000
feet over the North Sea off Felix
stowe, England. With his speed at
about 700 mph.—one-tenth be
yond the speed of sound—he was
unable to pull out, so he bailed out
and landed in the sea four miles
off the coast.
A target-towing tug spotted
Molland and rescued him. At Ip
swich, hospital attendants said he
had suffered fractures of the arm
and pelvis and two black eyes.
