Warns
Chairman
Dies - Presidential Feud Renewed by Telegram
WASHINGTON. Nov. 27— (U.P.) President Roosevelt was revealed today to have warned chairman Martin Dies of the House committee on un-American activities that ill-advised acts of the committee may defeat executive efforts to combat subversive elements.

Dies left Orange today for the capital, where he is to confer with the president Friday.
“I know,” Mr. Roosevelt’s telegram said, ‘ that you will also see the point when I suggest that in the regular conduct of administrative work of this nature, carefully laid plans for the obtaining of further information which may lead to the breaking up of subversive activities may be severely handicapped or completely destroyed by premature disclosure of facts or of suppositions to the public, or by hasty seizure of evidence which might with a little more patience be obtained in a manner to be admissible in court or by giving of immunities to witnesses before congressional committees as to matters revealed by their own testimony.
"Such action may defeat the end? of Justice.”
