S. ambassador to Latin America has told Congress that State Department policies contributed to the loss of both China and Cuba to the Communists. William D. Pawley, envoy to Brazil and Peru in the 1940s and a State Department emissary as recently as 1954, described what he said were series of errors by U. S. policy-makers that he doubted were all sincere mistakes of judgment. Pawley testified last Sep tember at the Senate internal security subcommittee inves tigation of Communist activi ties in the Caribbean, particu larly in Cuba. The testimony was released this week. In his testimony, Pawley said that the decision to with draw support from former Cu ban dictator Fulgencio Batis ta, his long-time friend, cre ated a power vacuum that made inevitable Fidel Castro's coup. He a 1 1 a c k ed policies of Stale Department oficials un der the Truman and Eisen hower administrations and also touched the Kennedy ad ministration with his com ments on China policy. Mention. Webb New National Aeronautics and Space Administration Di rector James E. Webb was mentioned as among those who Pawley said frustrated his attempts to help the Chi nese Nationalists in 1949 and 1951. Webb was undersecre tary of state at that time. The former ambassador charged that a State Depart ment "clique" was responsible for the Communist victory in umna alter World War II. He indicated he believed that some members of the "clique" had deliberately aided the Communists. Marshall Not Criticized But Pawley did not aim his criticism at the late Gen. George C. Marshall, former secretary of state, as others have done. He said, instead that Marshall helped block a move by then Secretary of State Dean Acheson, Philip Jessup and others proposin recognition of Red China in 1949-1950. He said that after former President Harry Truman sent him to the. State Department in 1951 as a kind of "devil's advocate," it was Webb who told him that he was regarded as a "reactionary" and would not have access to documents dealing with the Far East. Braden Replies Pawley also said that Spru ille Braden was fired as as sistant secretary of state in 1947 after Pawley showed Truman an Army intelligence memo supporting the view that Braden, when ambasador to Argentina in 1945, had be come involved in "a program which appeared to be helpful to tne Communist party in Latin America." In New York, Braden re plied that he had warned Tru man repeatedly of Communist infiltration in Latin America in 1945. He said "It is only my respect for the Senate which impels me to dignify Pawley's hearsay testimony and suppositions with any re ply." Braden said, "Pawley made one true statement. It is that I blocked his appointment as ambassador to Argentina."
