He asked: "Who Is this Chou En-Lai-whose -addition to our cir cle would make possible solution of all our problems?" He described Chou as a leader of a regime which gained power through a bloody war, became an open aggressor in Korea, and even now continues to promote aggres sion in Indochina. Such Is the man Mr. Molotov proposes would enable us to solve all the world's problems," the American diplomat scathingly de- uitueu. , t , Dulles claimed that in arguing here - for a five-power - meeting, Molotov -has been playing on the hopes raised when the united Na tions was formed in 1945 In order to justify transferring those hopes to a council of the five powers. The fact is, Dulles continued, Molotov is trying to replace the United Nations with a council of five which he .said would take over responsibility for running the world. ; , .'- The Dulles argument hit hard at the five-power conference sugges tion which all three Western min isters have already rejected.

At least that was the line being taken by Dul les, who sought to move Molotov on to a discussion of the German question.. . Dulles told Molotov It was ob vious the proposed five-power con ference could not be a temporary one. He said it was "incredible" that the four here, plus Chou En Lai, would be able to solve polit ical, military and economic prob lems with which the United Na tions bad grappled for nine years. The tasks which. Molotov out lined Wednesday for the five-power meeting ranging from atomic disarmament to Asian settlements would compel it to become per manent, Dulles said. Dulles then made his demand to move on in these words: Mv feeling Is that we have had an adequate first round exchange of views on this subject (the five power idea) and that without for getting wnat has neen saia we thould now ' move on to an ex change of views regarding the problems relating to Germany and Austria." Dulles said he had developed great admiration for Molotov's skill as a diplomat In the past and that Molotov had not lost his touch. , , long Pull" Plans Held Best For US WASHINGTON - Wl . Secretary of Agriculture Benson said Thurs day it is "high time that thinking Americans take stock and heed the warning" of President Eisenhower that present farm programs are not In the best Interest of agricul ture and the nation. Addressing a farm conference being held by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the GOP farm chief appealed for public support for a new agricultural program outlined to Congress bv the President ear lier this month.

"The President's program,", the secretary said, "chartered course for'lncreaslng farm Income on an over-all, year after year basis. At the same time It pro vided for easing the strain on the federal Treasury and the consum er. It should be the people's pro gram." In his farm message to congress Elsenhower said the present pro gram of . mandatory nign price floors was discouraging sales and causing the creation of costly sur pluses of farm products. in addition to tne economic as pects of the (Elsenhower) plan, I'm sure It will strengthen the so cial bond between fanners 'and urban consumers."'
