State Dept Challenges Stassen Testimony On China Policy
The State Department disputed Harold E. Stassen’s sworn testimony on U S policy toward Red China. Officials refuted his claims that the United States secretly considered recognizing Communist China and that Ambassador Jessup urged halting aid to Chinese Nationalists at a 1949 White House meeting. They also challenged Stassen’s charge that the administration delayed India’s grain request to counter famine. Ambassador Warren Austin reported Jessup was in New York during the aid conference, countering Stassen’s assertion that Jessup attended.
