MARSHALL NAMED
ENVOY TO CHINA
Former Chief OF Staff Will
Succeed Maj. Gen. Patrick
Hurley, Resigned

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27- B -
General of the Army George C.
Marshall was appointed special
envoy to China late today after the
u. S. Ambassador, Major Gen.
Patrick J. Hurley, had resigned
with bitter denunciation of career
diplomats and a warning that a
third world war was ''in the max
ing"
The two events, coming in rapid
fire order, stunned the capital.
First ''-e dashing Hurley, who
was Secretary of War under Her
bert Hoover and global trouble
shooter for Franklin D. Roosevelt,
released a scathing 1900 word
statement virtually unprecedented
in recent diplomatic history.
1t charged unnamed professional
diplomats with wrecking U. S. for
eign policy. Instead of backing
democracy and unity in China, he
said, they "sided with the Com
munist armed party and the i'm
perialistic bloc of nations whose
policy it was to keep China divided
against ITSELF
Secretary of State Byrnes went
into quick huddle with President
Truman and other officials. Then
White Hou- press secretary
Charles G.. Ross called reporters
into hi. office.
After announcing that the Presi-
dent had accepted the Hurley resig-
nation, he disclosed that Mr.. Tru-
man had named Marshall as his
special envoy with the rank of Am
bassador. The assignment will be
temporary. .--
AS Ross related it, the President
telephoned the five-star general,
who only last week retired as Unit
ed States chief of staff, and ask
elk:
"Win you go, General Marshall?"
81 will, Mr.. President" Marshall
replied.
Ross explained that Marshall's S
ssignnent sis to do a particular
job that needs to be done in Chi
na."

out reason or restraint in Mon
days battle of The Sharon Val
ley"
British sources said the fighting
incl :ded battle with 30 armed
Jews who disregarded a demand
to halt their march down the val
ley.
Speakers at funerals for the Jews
killed in the fighting pledged that
the 7ewish community will con-
tinue to support illegal immigra-
ton into Palestine. The funerals

Official British sources denied
that the Battle of The Sharon Val

the command four times, but the

CHURCHILL FIRES
ON LABOR CABINET
Demands Censure By Com
mons Of Attlee Party
Government

LONDON, Nov. 27-(P-Winston
Churc chill tonight launched the Con-
servative party's first major often
sive against Britains Labor gov
ernment with a demand that Com
mons censure the cabinet for "ne-
glecting' major national problems
in favor of Socialist projects.
Churchill submitted to the house
a broadly -phrased ce->sure motion
accusing Prime Minister Attlee and
his government Of failing to. deal
effectively with reco version, de-
mobilization and housing because of
''pre-occupation'' with long-term
plans to nationalize industries.
The motion-which, if approved,
could lead to the resignation of
t. Labor government-wa almost
certainly foredoomed because of Ia
boris overwhelming voting MAORI
ty. It will serve, however, to pro-
woke a full-dress debate on the
whole range of Britain's postwar
plans.
Churchill, in the role Of leader
of His Majesty's loyal opposition, p"
offered the motion without COM
ment. He was expected to open an
oral assault on the Attlee regime
to 'orrow in a speech before the
Central Council of Conservative AS

organization.

es said, will set aside parliamen-

Separatist
Forces Take
Zenjan City
CAPITAL OCCUPIED
Youthful Patriots Appeal
To Shah To Form Ma
tional Guard Units

TEHRAN Iran, Nov. 27.-(R)-
Armed insurgents, driving south
ward along the main railway line
from Azerbaijan province, have
occupied Zenjan, 174 miles north
west of Tehran, traveller from
northern Iran reported today.
This would represent an advance
of Sc miles from Mianeh, which
the government announced last
week had been occupied by what
it called Separatist forces. The
traveller said all government
buildings in Zenjan, capital of
Khamseh province, were in the
insurgents hands and that tele-
graph lines were cut.
In Tehran, youthful patriots ap-
pealed to The Shah for authoriza-
ton to form a National Guard to
fight the insurgents. Other groups,
protesting against "subversive reb-
el activities,"' offered to fight to
preserve the unity of the nation.
The government still was block
ed in efforts to send troops to the
trouble zone, occupied by Rus
sian forces under the 1912 British
Russian-1ranian treaty. Iranian
reinforcements dispatched north
ward last week were halted at
Kazvin, 80 miles southeast of Zen-
jan, by a Soviet commander.
There was no official confirma-
ton that the insurgents had oc-
cupied Zenjan, but the govern
ment previously had said that sep
'aratists were oper ting in
Khamseh province, armed with
weapons distributed by unknown
people,.
The insurgents, after meeting
in Tabriz, capital of Azerbaijan,
late last week. issued a declara-
ton that they wanted autonomy
