Chou said he would propose a neutral committee be formed to investigate civil war condi tions, and in almost the same breath charged Chiang Kai-shek with attempting to exterminate the communists, while holding peace parleys with them. The Investigating conimittee- also would consider activities of American troops in disputed areas. The communists have ob tained proof that while the peace negotiations were under way, Chiang ordered his north' crn generals to. "liquidate" the communists, Chou said.- Orders captured from a gov ernment plane downed in the Ciatso coal mine region in northern Honan,' instructed Yen Hsi-shan; governor of Shansi, in "bandit suppression." , Other orders for "full fledged liquidation of bandits," were given Gen. Hu Tsung-nin, first war zone commander, and to Gen. Tao Shu-sun, eighth army commander, Chou said. - The orders were captured when Kao and 10,000 of his men laid down their arms and refused to continue fighting against the communists. , By that time, Chou continued, the national military council head already ordered an all-out assault on the communists in liberated areas everywhere. -. "This is very clear," . he , as serted. Chou said his meeting with Kuomintang representatives to morrow "looks very danger ous," and obviously, will deal with "the military situation," Gen.

You will find that after EVERY great war the world passes through a state of explosive tension. We are in that condition now. If we have WISE LEADERSHIP, we can come out of this period safely.
