Reds Request Marshall To Set Time Limit On Jap Disarmanent In China And Withdrawal Of American Troops . M ' Br SPENCER MOOSA CHUNGKING, Dec. 24 W) The communist New China Daily News urged General Marshall today to set a time limit on the disarmament of Japanese troops In China and the withdrawal of American forces. The newspaper assorted that any American help to Chung king military, political, fi nancial or technical before a coalition government was estab lished would aggravate "the cur rent civil war." The statement of the news paper, which has been speaking authoritatively for the commun ist side, came at" a time when Marshall was plunging into his mission of peace for troubled China. After conferring with Chiang Kai-shek, Premier T. V. Soong and three communist leaders of the peace delegation assigned here, Marshall had admitted "it will be some time before I can hope to get a picture of China." Doubt Strengthened This statement by President Truman's special envoy to China, coupled with government sus picion of a communist truce pro posal, strengthend doubt that the civil war would be halted quick ly. The communists had sug gested immediate cessation of hostilities and "freezing" of troops in present positions. This would mean government forces would halt their movement into MaYichuria. Marshall said it was unneces sary to restate America's policy toward China, as President Tru man had made that clear. He had conferred with Soong just before meeting newspaper men, and earlier with Chiang. Yesterday he had a "friendly exchange of views" with Gen. Chou En-lai, deputy chief of the communist party and leader of the communist delegation to the political council; Gen Yeh Chien ying. chief of staff of commun ist armies, and Tung Pi-wu, communist member of the Chi nese delegation at the San Fran cisco UNO conference. "I'm in the business of inform ing myself and not making an nouncements," he stated. , - Very Interested Marshall said both he and America were "very much in terested" in the forthcoming political council ot -which China's multiple problems will be up for settlement. "The United States govern ment and people have a natural, intense interest in the Chinese people," he continued. "That , interest almost affection was overrun and brutalized by the Japanese armies." He has not yet - considered making a visit to Yenan, the communist capital, nor was he certain he would travel about China. 'tf'li try to orient myself here," he stated, making no estimate how long he would remain in Chungking. Meantime, the government and the communists continued their battle of words, each accusing the other of fighting or prepar ing to fight in North China. The communists included an uncon firmed charge that government troops used poison -gas Novem ber 27 in an engagement near , Paoting, Hopeh province. United States Holds Promise For Refugees WASHINGTON, Dec. 24 (ff) The United States held out a promise today of merrier Christ- ; mases to come for thousands of Europe's homeless war refugees. In a weekend directive, Presi dent Truman, cleared the way for 39,000 of them a year to be admitted to this country. He ordered the resumption of nor mal quota immigration, saying ' the action by applying to dis- ' placed persons of Europe pro vides, an "opportunity for Amer ica to set an example for the rest of the world in cooperation toward alleviating human misery." Emphasizing that the number ' to be admitted "will be strictly within the limits of the present quotas as imposed by law," Mr. .Truman pleaded against the en actment of any further restrictions.

Cold Lessens Over Nation By The Associated Press Extreme cold had moderated over most of the country today, but sleet and freezing rain threatened to make holiday travel treacherous for midwest and eastern motorists. Missouri highways already were "glazed" and the Chicago weather bureau forecast icy sur faces for Illinois and Indiana roads by nightfall, with the con dition spreading into southern New York on Christmas Day, Slippery roads were blamed for eight traffic deaths in Mis souri.

G Joe Disappointed Bui Cheerful Over Troop Jam LOS ANGELES, Dec. 24 (IP) None of them kissed the ground, and none of them cheered. They ,. filed impassively down the ship's gangway with their duf fel bags, just another bunch of GI's who had lost out in the "home by Christmas" rush. The cheering had come ear- ' lier, when the ship from Ma nila had docked four days be fore. Then the word came they'd stay aboard until other Pacific veterans, returning ear lier, had been moved on. There wasn't a man who wouldn't admit to disappoint ments but then GI's are used to taking what comes. It was a gray, cheerless day, wet with heavy rains. But humor crack led down the aisles of the train taking them on the shprt ride to a processing camp. - "Wow!" howled one,' point ing at a blonde girl walking by the track. "Hi, beautiful!" The train passed a Mexican settlement, a little brown boy waving. "First little kid I've seen with clothes on!" another exclaimed. "And nobody's begging us for cigarettes or chocolate!" said a third. At an intersection a civilian waved a bottle of liquor, and scores of voices invited him to "come on with us." "California sunshine" took its share of ribbing and "when do we eat?" became a conversation piece. They talked about Christmas, sure when you asked them. Sgt. Robert Pennington, Kel so, Wash., spotted a Christmas tree in a house window. "They could hold up Christ mas for me," he said, "but It wouldn't be right for my sis ter's kids if they didn't have it on the day. I'd hoped to make it in -time until we were held up in Luzon."

Troops (Continued from Page One) said: "We owe our freedom to you." The' tribute from Avran ches recalled the Normandy vil lage where Patton and his third army broke through the breach fashioned by the U. S. first army and overran and liberated France. The floral piece from Mctz recalled that Patton was the first general in more than a thousand years to storm and capture that incredible strong city frontally. The casket was placed on beams bridging the open grave under the canopy. Reads From Bible The Chaplain, Col. Edwin Royall Carter Jr., of Rich mond, Va., read from the bible: "In the midst of life, we are in death." As he intoned the words, the flag was lifted from the casket. Soldiers held It a few minutes above the silver top as the chapr lain spoke. Then he began reciting the Lord's prayer. Everyone uncov ered. A squad of Alpine Chasseurs in whose company Patton had been an honorary master ser gent snapped their rifles to at tention. When the last of the prayer had been said, the sol diers folded the flag and handed it to Mrs. Patton. A curt command sounded out side the canopy: "Half left aim fire." Three volleys splintered the heavy silence. And then the notes of a bugle rang in the air. This was taps for Gen. Patton, the soldiers' command for sleep.
