eighty miles southeast, also were

S00NC IS NAMED
CHINESE PREMIER
Brother OF Madame Chang
Assumes Duties Of
Regime

CHUNGKING, Dec. 4.-tR)-For'
eign Minister T. V. Soong, brother
of Mrs. Chinag Kai-Shek, assumed
the duties of Premier of China TO-
day in popular move apparently
paving the way for a working
agreement between the Central
Government and the Communists
of North China.
Soong's attitude toward the Com
nunists is known to be moderate,
and his accession to greater influ'
ence comes coincidentally with
unconfirmed reports of an agree
ment in principle between the two
parties to wage common war
againt. Japan.
Soong, who stepped into his new
post with his appointment as act
ing president of the Executive Yu-
an in succession to his brother-in-
law, H. H. Kung, is regarded in
Washington and London as pos:
sibly China's most capable dir2o
mat ana statesman. =
Kung previously had resigned As
finance minister and had been Sue
ceeded by o. K. Yui, former mayor
of Shanghai. Kung retains his Eost
as head of four Chinese govern
banks.
Although Chinag Kai-shek re.
mains president of the Executive
Yuan, and, therefore, actually the
country's premier, it was felt that
the appointment of Soong as his
''right-hand man" would enable
the commander in chief to concen-
trate more fully on his military
tasks.
Soong is popular throughout the
country, and his appointment will
strengthen the Central government
immeasurably in the present criti-
cal military situation.

SOMERVELL FAVORS
POSTWAR BONUS TO

WASHINGTON Dec. 4. - up --
Endorsing postwar bonus for
war workers who stay at their

warned Congress today that the

ed this month";
The Army's chief of Service
Forces told the Senate War Inves-
tigating Committee there has been
no suffering yet by boys on the
front because of the production
lag, "but we are apprehensive for
the future.''
Conceding that there have been
instances when troops have suffer-
ed from lack Of ammunition, he
said these were due to transporta-
ton and other difficulties,
"But, unless manpower is found
to meet deficiencies in critical
items like tires, ammunition, hea-
Wy artillery, radar, batteries and
bombs, textiles and assault wire,
we have every reason to expect
a shortage at the 'front.'" the gray
haired general declared.
Somervell expressed hope that
the agreement of the American
Federation of Labor and the Con-
gress of Industrial Organizations
to aid the Army in recruiting work.
ers on Nationwide basis would
provide the answer.
BY this means, coupled with
prohibitions against increased ci.
william production in critical labor

wide assortment of stock market
specialties, together with scattered
pivotals, climbed to peaks for the
year or longer today while many
leaders did little or nothing.
Investment buying, predicated on
the growing urge to employe idle
funds, was selective from the start.
Individual situations, plus earnings
and dividend hopes, provided the
principal inspiration. War news
also was on the side of bullish
forces.
Dealings were unusually lively
for a pre-holiday session-impor-
