Air Hero Decries Stories

Capt, Taylor is credited by the

shot down two Jap bombers. and
with being the first American casu-
atty of the war. He was shot in the
leg during the Pearl Harbor attack.

This Changing WorId-

alissimo Chang Kai-shek expects
1t. So do his generals who in
the past few months have ap-
peared somewhat doubtful in
their allegiance to the Allied
cause.
Little News from India.
President Roosevelt and Prime
Minister Churchill have said for
mally that Lord Mountbatten will
be given a sufficiently large force
to kick the Japanese out of
Burma.
1t is hoped that the force will
be sent in time to take advantage
of the several months of good
weather. 1t appears, however,
from some of the observations
made by our senatorial travellers
that there still is very little move
ment toward the India Burma
border.
Little news from India reaches
the outside world. But it is indi-
Gated that there still is some
trouble brewing throughout the
country. Because of this uncer-
tain situation the new Viceroy,
Marshal Wavell, is not quite cer-
tain how many British troops he
can give Lord Mountbatten. The
use Of Indian troops in a cam
paign against Burma, particularly
at time when the japanese have
made that country free may
be i'll advised. We all know what
freedom" by the japanese
means, but there is a question of
whether all the Indians have the
same appreciation of their ges-
lures as we have.
Want Russian Bases.
Of course, now that the Med
iterranean has become free again
supplies can be rushed to India
in less than half the time pre-
viously required. The British
Mediterranean feet also is dis
engaged and can be sent to the
Indian Ocean. But apparently it
will take some time before the
ships which have been operating
in the Mediterranean since 1910
can be refltted for another stren-
uous campaign.
These difficulties which con-
front Lord Mountbatten can be
overcome by energetic measures.
But it is pointed out that any
= dllly- dallying would have a dis
astrous effect on the morale of
the Chinese and of the allied
fighting forces in the Pacific as
well.
The returning Senators feel
strongly that a real offensive
against Japan has become

share the Washington Official
viewpoint that the Japs are on
the downgrade. They have had
losses, it is true. but not suff-
ciently severe to justify the opti-
mistic tone which occasionally is
sounded from Washington
The returning Senators are be-
lleved to express the viewpoint of
the military men to whom they
talked in confidence when they
said we needed Russian bases in
Siberia to defeat the japanese
quickly. And they feel that the
United States has sufficient bar
gaining assets to obtain these
bases. -..-

The Political Mill

partments have been requested
to make reports on the bill.
When these have been received,
Senator Andrews plans to ask
the committee to begin imme-
diate consideration of the pro-
posal.
Chinese Praised.
When he offered his bill Sena-
tor Andrews said: The heroic
accomplishments of the Chinese
people as one of the United Ma
tions in the present global war
against totalitarianism make it
very appropriate that China
should be treated on par with
other countries. The United
States has already entered on
this policy by voluntary relin-
gushing extraterritorial jurisdic-
ton over Americans in China and
abolishing the United States
Court in China which for years
exercised jurisdiction over such
cases. I dedicate my efforts in
this matter personally to the
First Lady of China, Nine.
Chang Kai-shek, and her heroic
husband, recently made Presi-
dent of China, in an effort to
aid in a continued friendship
which I trust will be everlasting"
In the new world which is ex-
pected to arise from the ashes
OF the present war, China, with
her 450,000,000 people, is expected
to play an important part Her
leaders are intent upon China's
becoming a great, educated, in
duStrial nation as we'll as agri-
cultural The estimates of her
needs are fabulous, in materials
of all kinds. 1t is high time, in
the opinion of Senator Andrews,
that the friendship between this
country and China be cemented.
Nothing, in his opinion, could be
done which would tend to tighten
this friendship more than a re-
peal of the exclusion act.
Warren Backs Move.
1t is worthy of note that the
bill has been offered in the House
by member from the Pacific
Coast, where the demand for
Chinese. as well as japanese, ex-
clusion first held sway. Repre-
sentative Magnuson feels as
strongly in this matter of i'm
proving relations with China as
Goes Senator Andrews. Recently
when Gov Warren of California
was attending the meeting of the
Republican Postwar Advisory
Council on Mackinac Island,
Mich, he was asked about the
proposal to repeal the Chinese
Exclusion Act and permit Chinese
immigration under the quota sys-
tenn. Gov. Warren said then that
if the move could be confined to
the Chinese he saw no reason it
should not be carried forward.
He expressed fear that later an
effort might be made to broaden
1t, even to the inclusion of jap
anese. That, he said, the people
of California would firmly resist.
The present strategy is to get
Senate approval of the bill first
and then bring it up in the
House committee and in the
House itself. The supporters of
the measure are looking forward
with interest to the attitude of
the administration on the meas
ure. This it is expected will be
expressed in the letters which
the Senate committee expects to
receive from the State and JUS
tlce Departments. The immigra-
tion bureau is now in the Justice
Department. having been trans
