Chinese Reds Want Equality HARBIN, July 5 (Delayed) UP) Chinese communists are de manding that their forces In ,' Manchuria be of equal strength to tlie government's, their commander-in-chief declared today. The communist commander In Manchuria, Gen. Lin Piao said in an interview this question had ,'ocon coupled with a proposal un der discussion in Nanking that the communists withdraw from Harbin. While the communists are willing to discuss the evacuation , of this Important north Man churian railway city, Lin assert ed they would not even talk about government demands that they give up other cities north of the Sungari river, such as Tsitsihar northeast of here. The first prerequisite for the restoraton of trade and industry in Manchuria, Lin said, was an end to the civil war. "The nation has not the strength, economically, political ly and militarily to continue the struggle," he said. He viewed as a "decisive fac tor" whether the United Slates would be willing to withhold military and financial aid from the one-party Kuomintang gov ernment and help only an all party coalition. Lin earlier had told Brig- Gen. Thomas S. Timberman of execu tive (truce) headquarters that he would be willing to meet with Gen. Tu Li-Ming, the govern ment commander in Manchuria to discuss a cessation of hostili ties. 'Damned Lie,' Says Truman GETTYSBURG. Pa..

Nehru To Lead Indian Party BOMBAY, July 6 OP) Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru formally as sumed leadership of the congress party today, and urged his fol lowers to maintain intact "the weapon with which the nation has fought the Britishers all these years the congress ma chinery." Nehru was Inducted into of fice by his predecessor, Maulant Abul Malam Azad, at the open ing of an emergency twolay session of the party's delegate assembly. Despite left-wing op position, the delegates were ex pected to approve a resolution drafted by a working committee and calling for establishment of an assembly to frame a new con stitution for India. The expected socialist opposl tion to acceptance of the long term proposal, in view of the working committee's rejection of the British plan for an interim government, came irom Jai fra kash Narain, who urged that forces be "marshaled for the final struggle." "I cannot think that a con stituent assembly which meets under British auspices can think of the self-rule for the poverty stricken people of this country, which is the ideal of the con gress." he said. However, there was little pos sibility that the leftists could muster sufficient strengtn to block acceptance of th plan.

Radar shot at the atomic ex plosion and afterward at ika atomic cloud behaved unex pectedly. Kadar beams bounced back off the explosion. This amazed scientists. No such thing had been expected. The prob able explanation is that radar bounced back off the edges of the bubble of compressed air that formed the source of the shock wave of the explosion. This bubble is plainly visible in the photographs exhibited on the press ship. Radar failed completely to bounce back off the atomic cloud. It had been confidently expected that radar would be able to track the atomic cloud. The explanation of this failure is that this cloud contained much less vaporized metal than had been anticipated. Metallic vapors in the cloud had been counted on to give good radar response.
