Dies Says He is Vindicated By Events
Lufkin Texas June 1 Martin Dies former head of the Un American Activities Committee says he has been vindicated by events of a decade past. In an interview he recalled warnings about Communists in government and Russia as the real menace and noted his 260 Texas speeches since leaving Congress in 1945. He voiced no desire to return to politics unless guided by his principles. He recalled briefing President Roosevelt in 1941 about Soviet treachery and urged a housecleaning, while criticizing Roosevelt’s handling of relations with Stalin. He also described Stalin’s praise of youth rally organizers in Berlin as the Soviet leader sent blessings to 900 100 young peace fighters. The report blends Dies comments with a controversial critique of U S policy and Roosevelts decisions.

He details Bikini atoll scenarios, noting rapid water turnover in Chesapeake Bay reduces aftereffects versus Bikini and that many creatures could be handled safely post-exposure. He also discusses surface bursts causing immediate fatalities near ground zero and downplays long-term fear of radioactivity for wildlife.
