London. March g. (U.P0 - Col onel General Heinz Guerdian, chief of staff of the German army, was quoted by the NaZi radio today as admitting in a message to German troops that the strain now has oe- come "weu nigh intolerable."
 Foreign transmissionS of the Nah radio acnowledged an Amer ican crossing of the Rhine river, but there was no immediate indica-. tion that the German people hao been told that their biggest defense barrier in the west was broken.
 Naxi propagandists, in an ap- parent effort to offset word ol the Russian drive on Berlin, said Adolf Hitler had visited the Oder front within the last few days. Hitler was said to have convinced himself Of the fighting spirit of the German soldiers" ,.
 The question of German spirit and determination, or lack of It.. was thrust to the fore also by Guderian.
 we are not losing our nerve" he said in the message to German troops in which he conceded the al- most "intolerable' strain of the Al. Rled pressure on Germany.
 Writing in the VoelkiScher Beo- bachter, Guderian said that by far the greatest part of Germany's armed forces was assigned to the eastern front last fall to block the Russian threat.
 As a result, he said, the Amer icans in the west are able to achieve today what they failed to do earlier.
 Other enemy broadcasts said the Allied offensive in the west was at- faining decisive" importance"
 An Exchange Telegraph dispatch from zurich said Germany IS get- fling the "gas jitters," according to reports there from responsible sources in Munich.
 The reports said all Nazi district leaders recently received a written order from Hitler, marked strictly confidential," ordering complete ar- fanRements for anti-gas defense, to be perfected not later than April l.
 The measures were said to include Mnti-gas bunkers. cellars and shell ters to accommodate all district etafYs and their leaders.

Zone reason for the recent rever-
ses in the war against Jap.n in China
is due to the complete lack of unity
between the two forces, not only in
side China, but outside of it. The
lack of unity within China made it
impossible for the Chinese to resist
the enemy better than they have The
absence of cooperation between Rus
STA and the United States against
Japan has made the enemy feel safe
to withdraw troops from the Siberian
front to undertake the recent cam
paign in southwest China. inflicting
severe losses to the American and
Chinese forces. All this goes to prove
the soundness of the contention that
without unity between the two forces,
the winning of war and peace will be
an impossible task.
The only way 20 unite the two
forces seems to lie in the adoption Of
some formula of compromise. No
lasting compromise between the Com
muniSts and Nationalists can be work
ed out without complete American
Soviet understanding on the Far East
ern situation. 1t is extremely desir-
able, therefore, to hold conference
in which the representatives of the
Chinese Communists and Nationalist,
and Russia and the United States may
work out a formula of compromise
acceptable to all parties.
Should Russia insist on having her
own way in China as she has done in
Eastern Europe and should the United
States, Great Britain and Nationalist
China refuse to make compromise
with the Chinese Communists and
Russia, see nothing but a continued
deadlock between the Chinese Com
munists and Nationalists, resulting in
general international upheaval, not
only in the Far East, but in the whole
world"
Mr. Park felt there was greater
promise in 1915 for China than for
the past thirteen years and was OPP

timistic about the ultimate organiza-
ton of world authority.
In the forum discussion he declared
that whether China would want to be
a war-like or peace-like nation after
this war depended upon the creating
of such an authority in the world.
He declared particularly that there
should be definite understanding
between Russia and the United States.
He felt that the question, Gould
there be peace in the world in spite
of nationalism" could be answered by
a worldwide authority. In answer to
a question what part would religion
play in the new set-up' he declared
the principles of ChriSt'S teachings
must be in the hearts of men, but
that mere preaching about it would
not bring the desired result of itself
He felt that much progress had
been made along peace lines in the
past few years and that if such prog
ress continued the realization of an
organization to outlaw war was not
too far distant
