PEACE GROUP SEEKS AGGRESSOR CURBS-COMMITTEE STARTS CAMPAIGN FOR AN AMENDMENT TO OUR NEUTRALITY STATUTE-WOULD AID VICTIM STATES-PRESENT ACT ASSAILED AS NOT BEING NEUTRAL AND DANGER TO PEACE OF THIS COUNTRY The Committee for Concerted Peace Efforts, composed of leaders of fifteen national organizations interested in world peace, started a campaign yesterday for an amendment to the United States Neutrality Act so this country can "determine the aggressor and apply embargoes to that State only and not to its innocent victim." The committee's statement, it announced, had been signed by the entire membership.

The statement called on the American people to write to their Members of Congress urging "an amendment which will distinguish between aggressor and victim; which will stop shipments of munitions and raw materials to aggressors." The present act, according to the statement "is not neutral" and "encourages aggression and rebellion," "is un-American," and "endangers the peace of the United States."

The committee asserted that "if these changes were made and the act invoked Japan could no longer secure from us the 54 percent of the essential war supplies she must purchase from abroad in order to continue her war in China." The act, said the committee, should provide that "whenever the President finds that war exists between nations, in violation of the Kellogg Pact or any other treaty to which the United States is a party" he shall consult with other States at peace, determine the aggressor and apply the embargo.

The membership of the committee, as made public yesterday, follows: Clark M. Eichelberger, national director, League of Nations Association, and chairman, Committee for Concerted Peace Efforts.

Henry A. Atkinson, general secretary, World Alliance for International Friendship Through the Churches and Church Peace Union.

SENATOR MCCARTHY'S STATEMENT ON OWEN J. LATTIMORE

The State Department, with great frequency, utilizes the services of a large group of individuals in diverse fields as "consultants."

One of its most regular performers in this field is the man I wish to discuss next. He is Owen J. Lattimore.

Lattimore was not only a consultant, but one of the principal architects of our far eastern policy. This man is one of the State Department's outstanding experts on problems dealing with the Far East and has been for a number of years. Lattimore is currently employed as a director of the Walter Hines Page School of International Relations, located at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. He has held numerous positions with the State Department, among them a 6-month period in 1941 as the political adviser of President Roosevelt to Generalisimo Chiang Kai-Shek. He was a Deputy Director in charge of the Pacific Branch of the Office of War Information and in June of 1944, he, with John Carter Vincent, later to head the Far Eastern Bureau of the State Department, accompanied Henry Wallace on a diplomatic tour of Siberia and Free China.

Recently Lattimore completed a State Department mission to India and it is understood that he is now a consultant in the Department. While the State Department will tell you that he is not on the payroll as of today, the point is he is still considered by the Department as one of its top advisers and is put on and off the payroll as consultant apparently at will, and is apparently one of the top men in developing our Asiatic program.

This man's record as a pro-Communist goes back many years.

I hand the committee a letter, dated December 19, 1940, on the letterhead of Amerasia. Again we have the familiar name of Frederick V. Field, Communist
