San Francisco, July 31, John Foster Dulles said today that Western Germany and Japan should be enllited as equal partners in the free world's fight against Communism,
Mr. Dulles, Republican foreign policy expert and adviser to the Secretary of State, Deon Acheson, said in a speech at the Commonwealth Club that geographically the two former enemy nations are situated close to the world of despotism.
"If they were lost in exploi- tation by Soviet Communism that would substantially com- pleto the encirclement phase of stragegy would be set for what they call the final act which would be slow stran gulation or overpowering 19- sault."
Mr. Dulles said his proposal does not mean giving the West Germans and the Japanese na- tional armies to serve purely na. tional ambitions. But he left no doubt he favours arming the two nations. He said:
"It does mean treating them as equal partners within the frame. work of the European, Pacifle or United Nations effort which sub- ordinates national ambitions to goals which advance the general welfare of Tree peoples."
