ficult undertaking and because of
the shortness of time, the change
can only be accomplished by a con-
stitutional convention This means
that special session of the As
sembly will have to be called to
place before the people the question
Of assembling the convention.
If the people authorize a con-
vention, another session of the As
sembly must be called to provide
for its composition and the method
OF selecting the delegates thereto.
The convention must then assemble
and agree upon the amendments re-
Quired.
Il am giving consideration as to
the course of action that l should
take and would like very much to
have your advice, particularly in
view OF the many complications
which surround the proposed step.
Because of your interest in the sub
lect I am taking the liberty of trou-
bling you as to the situation. Please
let me hear from you as soon as
possible"

American Review Urges
End OF Burma Blockade
BY SPENCER MosA

CHUNGKING, Oct. 21.-tA-The
blockade Of the Burma road must
be broken in order to defeat ia
pans large, self sufficient armies
in China, (which are not likely to
surrender even if the Japanese is.
lands are taken," the American Re.
view said today.
The review disclosed that approx.
imately $4,000 square miles Of Chi
nese territory have been regained
In the Yunnan province offensive
since Chinese forces, trained,
equipped and advised by the Y.
force operations staff under Brig.
Gen. Frank Horn Of San Francisco,
Calf, crossed the Salween river
May II.
Reiterating that the purpose OF
the drive is to reopen the Burma
road by joining the northern part
of the original road with, the Ledo
road now under construction in
north Burma, the review said that
establishment of a strong supply
base in China over the Ledo-Bur-
ma road rs regarded as essential
to defeat the strong Japanese forces
in China
The SalWeen front is at the end
of the worlds longest and most diff
ficult supply line. Areas in the fl
entity of large towns are studded
with mountains, hills and knolls,
each forming a separate defense
point.
Yet mere than 400 populated
places under japanese domination
for two years have been liberated
and the Burma road has been open
ed as far as the old city Of Lung
hing, now under Chinese siege.
The ancient walled city Of Teng-
chung, the principal Japanese base
on the Salween front for two years,
fell Sept. IA after it's defenders were
virtually externainated in a suici
cal resistance that lasted 81 days

Clare Boothe Luce (R. Comm said
tonigh. that communism, through

for and acquired the biggest single
interest in a great American insti.
tuition, the Democratic party"
Mrs. Luce declared that If

ed by the Massachusetts state re-
publican committee.
THE insidious attack on Ameri-
cas- inner spiritual confidence" she
said, has been going on for a long
time. But this year it has been
sharply dramatized for us by two
men-Earl Browder and Sidney
Hillman.
For one thing, Earl Browder is
the only man in America who has
written a book which claims to be
an exposition of MIR. Roosevelt's
actual post war foreign policy.
According to Mr.. Browder, Mr..
Roosevelt's foreign policy follows
the communist party line one hun
dred per cent. -
Turning to Sidney Hillgnan. Mrs.
Luce said that "off and on for more
than 20 years Hillman has been
doing business with the communists
and doing the communists bust
