‘NO IMMEDIATE DANGER OF WAR,' SAYS MR DULLES
TOKIO, June 22. — “There is no immediate danger of war,” declared Mr John Foster Dulles (Republican adviser to the United States Secretary of State), addressing an American Chamber of Commerce luncheon today. Mr Dulles said that the strength of the free world so far outweighed the Communist countries that the position, basically,'was too one-sided. Any struggle which openly pitted the might of the free world against the Communist countries would lead to the demolition of ,the - artificial rigid, and relatively weak structure that Soviet Communism had built. In spite of Russian attempts over 30 years to build up industrial production United States steel production was five times that of Russia. The production of aluminium, electric power, and crude oil was, respectively five, six and eight times that of Russis* Soviet Communism dominated nearly 750,000,000 people, but “the captive world is weak and fragile in every essential respect,” he said. A is weak politically because it is ruled from the top and has no broad popular support.”
