government officials later to
day. Situation Dangerous
"The situation," he added,
''appears dangerous."
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. Ho Ying-chlri, nationalists
chief -of staff, is expected to
attend.' f.-.-a r.:::i:z.
.Chou said that he would sug
gest that both Chinese and for
eign news correspondents - be
permitted to go freely into the
contested areas to gather their
news first hand.
" ' The central -government ad
mitted receiving its first ser
ious setback in the fighting in
aouthern Hopeh province.

BEFORE going off the deep end
with fright over the state of
the world today, go and brush
up on your history. 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.
If not .
Well, without wise and tol
erant leadership now the world
will be in a bad way.
TT Is historically probable that
within a year tne situation
will begin to look better as we
Bet farther away from war and
our thinking becomes saner. But
right now ANYTHING can hap
pen.
There was never greater need
for the right kind of world lead
ership. ' i" .

tion in combat, has been awarded
