Critics Os Peace Meeting WASHINGTON (IP) Sec retary of State John Faster Dulles Wednesday night sharply attacked those who suggest the forthcoming Geneva peace conference implies U. S. plans for rec ognition of Red China. Such suggestions, Dulles said in a nationwide radio and television speech, give the “Communists a success which they could not win” at the Big Four foreign Ministers meeting in Berlin. Dulles’ speech was aimed at quieting congressional fears that the United Staten' is Inching to ward recognition of the Peiping re gime. Dulles said these fears were “without basis” and that the Ap ril 26 Far Eastern peace confer ence will bring China “to account before the bar of world opinion” for its aggressive actions to Asia. "It is that position which is re flected in the final Berlin confer ence resolution,” Dulles said in a report on the Big Four meeting. "Under that resolution the Com munist regime will not come to Geneva to be honored by us, but rather to account before the bar of world opinion.” DEFENDS DECIBION Vigorously defending the decision to meet with Red China in an at tempt to settle the powder keg situation in the Far East, Dulles said the conference will be held ‘TOO per cent on our terms.” He pointed out that It wilt be at a sitelsuggested by the’United States andjother agencies In this country. DkUes and hla kP ajdes\ wire tog .that the agreement spelled ”de ■facto recognition” <of the Peiping government. He felt he had achiev ed a diplomatic triumph in getting Russia to drop its demands that the Big Five meeting be on gen eral world problems rather than specific Far East issues.
