Political Heads Dispute 'Guilt' of Assassination Regional Edition Page 2-A MedfordTribune MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1963 WASHINGTON (UPI) - Top House Republicans warned to day against what they called ef forts to make "Americans gen erally" feel guilty in the assus sination of President Kennedy. At the same time they served notice that sorrow at the Presi dent's death will not be allowed to impede honest debate and dissent. "There is guilt," they said, "but it is not American guilt. It is the guilt of the murderer.

The charge was made in a communist parly statement in j the official newspaper Pravda. Most of the statement was de voted to an appeal to Commu nist China to cease its propa ganda attacks on the Soviet Union so that a world confer ence of Communist parties could be summoned in an ap parent final attempt to solve the Sino-Sovict ideological dis pute. The references to Kennedy were the first made in a formal parly statement. They echoed charges made frequently since the President's assassination by Soviet newspapers and Moscow Radio. Kennedy, the statement said, was "the most authoritative political figure in the capitalist world and, while adhering to the position of his class, took a sober view of the changes in the international arena and tried to adjust the foreign and domestic policies of his country to those changes." A Soviet call for a Commu nist summit meeting to discuss the split with Peking had been expected for some time. West ern observers here gave such a meeting few chances of success. America is not its source or loyal Americans its practition ers. America instead has worked hard against these forces and continues to do so." Nation's Heritage However, Sen. J. William Ful bright took a different view. In a speech Thursday, he put the blame for Kennedy's death on the nation's heritage of puritan self-righteousness and vigilante justice. By renouncing extrem ism, Fulbright said, the nation might find some redemption for Kennedy's death. But the COP leaders said the time has come to assure thai Americans are not now divided and confused hv "susnirinn rlis. i trust and unwarranted accusa tions. "We are totd that htn was tne assassin that struck down the President," they said in a formal statement by the 36 member House Republican Pol icy Committee. "If it was hatred that moved the assassin, that hatred was bred by the teachings of com munism. All the evidence so far presented affirms this. Alien Doctrine "Efforts to make Americans generally feel guilty of the crime now are obscuring the nature of the crime. Rather than setting American against American, as easily could hap pen if guilt is misplaced and doubt becomes a device of po litical debate, the tragic event should serve to set the face and heart of all Americans firmly against the warped and alien doctrine which, alone in the world today, preaches destruc tion of societies and freedoms, employs murder as a tool, and threatens violence around the globe from a base of major na tional power. "That doctrine is the doctrine of communism." The statement was drafted for the committee's approval today by a three-man subcom mittee set up for the purpose at the group's last regular meeting on Tuesday. Foreign Briefs MALADY.
