"Sent
To His Own
Funeral"
Washington, May 2.
Chairman
Democratic National
Stephen
A. Mitchell said today the Republicans sent Secre- tary of State John Foster Dulles "to his own funeral" at the Geneva conference by failing to agree on a single policy.
He said Vice-President Richard M. Nixon particularly did a "very great disservice" with his remarks on the Indo-China situation.
Mr Mitchell, interviewed on the NBC- television programme "Meet the Press" said the Republicans sent Mr Dulles to Geneva "with a popgun and shot the ground out from under him."
