Dulles, opening the fourth day's
meeting, loosed a blistering at
tack on Foreign Minister Chou
En-Lai of Communist China.
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.
But at the same time, the West
ern delegations are extremely sen
sitive to peace hopes, especially
with respect to Indocnina. iney

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:

an adequate first round exchange

power idea) and that without for

to Congress bv the President ear
lier this month. It features contro
versial flexible price supports . In
contrast to the present program
of rigid supports for major crops.
"The President's program,", the
secretary said, "chartered

on an over-all, year after year
basis. At the same time It pro
vided for easing the strain on the
