Mr. Dulles saw no "possible ehm~~ . -.,' 1v! me evidence mars been oresimmelf+ ' ALLEN DULLES ANSWERS WARREN-REPORT CRITICS o cia- investigation of the Kennedy assassination silence crit- icism of the first one? Not likely, says Allen Dulles. The former head of the Central Intelligence Agency was a member of the Warren Commission whose investigation of the President's death is now in controversy. During a Washington TV' show-"Meet.' ing of the Minds," on WRC-NBC-on December 4, Mr. Dulles was asked if a follow-up investigation would end argu-' ments. His reply: "I would rather doubt it, you know. You take the Lincoln as- sassination: In a sense that is still with us; people. are still: raising questions'' af""'tf'* T don't lrnew theta I eretyR factors are unprovable-that is, the ques- tion of a conspiracy and so forth and so on-I think people will always be around who will raise some doubt." Mr. Dulles re-emphasized the Warren Commission's unanimous finding that Lee Harvey Oswald was the assassin- and the only one-in these words: "I've seen no evidence that's been pre- sented that gives aany possible clue to other assassins. "Now, you never can prove that there weren't other assassins. , A negative of that kind, is never really provable. Allyou can say is that a study has been made of every lead that the Warren Com- .~. mission could get its hands on, and we didn't find any hard evidence or any credible. evidence that there was another assassin or. more than one aasaasin." t k
