DULLES limit S e cr e t a ry of Stat e Du lles r e ject s a plan t<3\•n•~ the authori~Y / ~of the President. The plan sponsore d by Senator Bricker of Ohio. Bricker wants an amendment that w ould curb the President's power to make treaties. This, a result of criticism of agreements with the Soviets, notably the Yalta Agreement. Secretary Dulles appeared before a Senate Judi J iary S~b-Comm1ttee to discuss the point. He read a message fran ~ ~1 1n which the President stated that hia ~ . Eisenhower: power should not be cut. S i d ; \ ~ / \ "The executive cannot surrender the freedom of action.,-which is necessary for its operations in the foreign 6.ffairs field." Dulles su p ported the President's argument, aJ / pointed out that for more than a hundred-and-sixty years, - ou 1 · Presidents have had the .tY-' imtxinatrimxuaxaatxat~present pow e r to maka treaties. ~~ ~-~ Presidents have us e d thls power without >c,f.Ac,. 4_;~ abuse, alCl ru11es argu e d that there is no re a l fear of abuse ,, right now.

In this way, they hope to overcome the objections of those who fear a repetition of agreements like those made at Teheran and Yalta. • / 0 ' D EGH -------- I r n i a n ' r em i e r o s s a d e g c a 1 s u . on th e P e r s i an a r lia m e nt to a r olut ion t a in g all o li tical o " er , ay fro t he 1.. h h ! os sadegh ' ctio n ol l o s wh at he ca lls an lot" ainst him. cc ordin g t o the weepin g P remier, the r,yal court ha p l a nne t o murder him af ter he had announced th a t he wa s leaving I r an, l a t month. and says !ossadegh: "The 8hah ' s mother and sister w i re both involved in the ' plot.
