Washington, May 23.
The US Secretary of State, Mr Dean Acheson, said today that he still hoped there would be a peaceful and negotiated settlement with the Chinese over the Korean war.
Mr Acheson's statement was made during a press conference discussion on a recent speech by Mr Dean Rusk, the Assistant Secretary of State. Mr Rusk's speech has been interpreted here and abroad as indicating a stiffening of the United States' hostility towards the Peking regime and any question of recognising them as a Government. Mr Acheson denied repeated- orange a cease-fire In the ly that Mr. Rusk's speech re-Kongan war without success, presented any change. in the Ife did not however, despair United States polley towards of the possibility that similar wither the Chinese regime or efforts might succeed in the Ceneralissimo Chiang Kai-future.
