Nothing stands still, you see. We
have lately become aware of some.
thing new in China-impatience
The Chinese do not think we have
been helping them enough and
lately, they have found ways Of say
ing so. We are 50 surprised you
could knock us down with . feather
1t Is too late to remedy the Ill by
giving China - little more" The
history Of the last 10 years Is q
history Of 3 little less, and then q
little more. Mere quantitative
changes are no longer enough. We
need qualitative changes. We not
only need to increase the amount OF
our help to China; we need . new
set of scales In which to measure
our help.
We need to give up the Lady
Bountiful, or dear friend, relation
with China and exchange 1t for q
partnership.
We are United Nations, yet the
amount of aid China gets from us is
based entirely on our own. unilateral
decision. When Great Britain was
involved with China, as in the de-
tense Of Hong Kong, then Singapore
and then Burma, the extent OF its
use OF Chinese troops and Of its
arming of Chinese men rested en-
tirely on Britains unilateral de-
cision. She could give or she could
deny, Just as we give or we deny.
China needs more than q little ad-
ditional supply or little less supply.
She needs voice and vote. Had
Britain and China lost Hong Kong
together the loss would not have
been half so important.
One Sided Machinery.
This one-sided machinery for
making decisions about munitions,
and not the shortage of munitions,
hurts American-Chinese and Brit
ish- Chinese relations. China knows
how to do without. She has done
more with less, longer, than any
other country in the war. Only at
least one Of the United Nations
voices telling her to do with less
should be . Chinese voice.
II, because of 4 world wide stra-
tegic plan we must say mol" to
China, We should find some way Of
saying 1t in Chinese.
Gen. Hsiung's military mission has
sadly left Washington, to return to
Chungking. A Chinese colonel re-
mains, as Chinas direct contact with
our own military apparatus in
Washington. That colonel will not
sit on our Combined Chiefs of Stan
Committee; he will wait outside for
the decisions OF that committee.
That's what's wrong; we give or we
take away, on our own motion.
A turn-down by a board on which
China was represented would be
more palatable; 1t would, in fact,

This Changing World
Franco Ponders Return Of Monarchy Rule
To Halt 1hreot Of New Catastrophe in Spoin

The Russian victories and the
arrival Of an American-British
expeditionary force in North
Africa have created . stir
among the many so-called Left
lists in Spain who have been
keeping quiet since their defeat
in the civil war and who were
disheartened by the chain Of
Axis victories.
Propaganda Campaign.
The Falange, the only polit-
teal organization in Spain which
is actively pro-Nazi, is alarmed.
A wide propaganda campaign
has been started attempting to
show that an Allied victory un-
questionably would bring civil
war in Spain with the probable
success Of the Spanish reds"
The Germans are supporting
his propaganda with all the
means at the disposal Of the
Spanish Of Herr Joseph Goeb-
bels' organization.
Gen. Franco, who is now con-
vinced that the Allies will win
the war, Is worried. He cannot
come out strongly in favor Of
the Falange and the pro-Ger-
man groups, first, because he
dislikes both and, second, be-
cause he is aware that this would
be the signal for another re-
bellion by the strengthened
Socialists.
Such q revolt could be put
down by Gen. Francois military
forces but would inevitably
bring foreign troops on Spanish
soil.
Gen. Franco has pledged him.
self not to permit any foreign
forces to enter his country and
has declared he would fight any
invader.
Explosive Situation.
II, on the other hand, Gen.
Franco moves toward the left, he
will certainly invite q Na1 inva-
sion.
So explosive has the situation
In Spain become that when the
rumor was spread on the west
coast that Allied transports had
been sighted making their way
toward the Spanish coast the
population of the entire area got
out Of hand and a large detach-
ment Of troops had to be sent to
restore. order.
The Leftists were prepared to
support the imaginary landings
and some blood was shed before
the incident was ended. The
Nazis. who heard about 1t, got
busy to exploit the situation.
According to reports from Ma
drid, the generalissimo, whose
chief aim is to keep Spain out of
war, is seriously thinking Of re-
turning the rule of the country to
the second son of the late King
Alfonso, Don Jaime de Bourbon
In the hope that such q move
might rally opposing factions

"Reds"-around the throne. ~

Bishop of the African Metho-
dis Episcopal Church in the
West Indian Islands and South
America at the Old Charles

congregation that since war
brings unrest and disturbs
everything, it frequently hap
pens that those oppressed US
ually try to take advantage of
the conditions that prevail and
try to better themselves. So,
said he, we colored people must
do. We must unite and try to
better ourselves now, both spir-
itually and materially. This
noted and eloquent speaker,
was born in Georgia and at one
time attended Harvard Univer-

-Four Axis Ships Sunk
By British Submarines

LONDON, July l lP.-The Admi-
rally announced today that British
submarines had destroyed four Axis
ships and probably had sunk NTH
in Italian waters. bringing to more
than score the number OF enemy
vessels sunk or damaged by Allied
undersea craft in the Mediterranean
during the last week.
Their prey ranged from An armed
merchant cruiser and two large
transports to small supply ships.
A fast modern transport was one
of the four most recently sunk. She
went down, 1t was said. within an
hour after three torpedoes had
smashed into her.
The three others were supply
boats, one apparently loaded with
ammunition. because she blew up
when hit and the explosion shook
the attacking submarine.
The dates of the latest sinkings
were not disclosed.
On June "a the Admiralty an
nounced British submarines had de-
stroyed an armed merchant cruiser
of about 1000 tons, two naval aux
iliaries, two medium sized ships and
eight small ones.
Listed then as torpedoed but not
certainly destroyed were three large
tankers, two large supply ships and
a small tanker.
The Polish submarine DIX was
credited Tuesday with sinking a
passenger ship and a supply ship Of
about 1000 tons.
The Allied submarines have been
operating under a heavy air UNI

the Mediterranean invasion lanes.

Hull Says Martinique
Has Requested Talks
Concerning Status
Dispatch Received by
Navy Being Given
Appropriate Study
BY the Associated Press.

Secretary Of State Hull said to-
day the United States Navy has
received a dispatch from author
tiles on Martinique requesting
reopening OF discussions con-
corning the status OF that French
Caribbean colony.
Mr.. Hull was asked at his press
conference whether the Government
has received from Admiral Georges
Robert, French high commissioner
on the island. request for the dis
patch OF an American envoy to
Martinique to Ak the terms for a
change Of French authority there.
Such step could lead to alignment
at last Of Martinique with the AL
lies.
The Secretary replied that the
Navy had received dispatch from
Martinique authorities and that it
was being given appropriate con-
sideration.
In reply to other questions. Mr.
Hull said he supposed the authori-
ties involved were speaking for Ad-
miral Robert, who heretofore has
stayed aloof from Allied ties.
He added that SO far as the State
Department is concerned there is
not much he could say on Mar
Unique beyond what he had tcld
Admiral Robert when the United
States broke of relations with him
Mr.. Hull emphasized that he had
stated at that time that the United
States Navy henceforth would have
the primary function Of dealing
with any new developments on Mar
Unique. The State Department., OF
course, he said, would collaborate
with the Navy wherever necessary
