Woo Red China
London W A top British
diplomat aaid Monday he be
lieves the end of fighting in
Korea gives the West a chance
to woo Communist China away
from the Soviet Union.
The Informant, who declin
ed to be quoted by name, gave
this annalysis:
During the past three years
the Korea War has tended to
throw Russia and China closer
together. This could not be
helped. It was one of the prices
the free world had to pay to
prevent the Red conquest of
South Korea.
But now that the shooting is
ove.r, the conflicts between
Moscow and Feiping have a
chance to reassert themselves.
Some of these are old and
deep.
Historically the Russians and
Chinese have regarded each
other with suspicion and en
mity. They nurse conflicting
interests and both covet Manchuria.

American aid for four to five

Eisenhower will require anti
inflation measures, large scale
investment and technical
training of Koreans.
Korea will need much im
ported food until 1957 and
some later, it said. The report
was submitted by Dr. Henry J.
Tasca, the President's special
representative in Korea, and
made public yesterday.
