View On
Dulles's Statement
Washington, Mar; 16.
The chairman of the Senate Republican Policy Committee, Homer Ferguson, today took issue with the Secretary of State, Mr John Foster Dulles, on his statement yesterday that the Presi dent could commit the United States to military action without Congressional assent.
Mr Dulles told a Press conference that, by ratifying the NATO and Rio reaties the Senate authorised the President to take whatever action he felt necessary in a sudden attack on one of those treaty allies. If London or Paris was bombed, or any NATO or Latin-American nation attacked, the President can order massive retalia- tion without waiting for Congress to approve, he said.
