u. S. ARMY DENIES
CHINESE REQUEST

SHANGHAI, Dec. II W.D The
United States Army had denied a
request by the Chinese government
to transport three additional Chi
nese armies to North China and
Manchuria aboard American YES
sells, it was learned today.
An authoritative source said the
Chinese government was informed
bluntly that the American mission
to assist in the redeployment of
Chinese troops required to disarm
the Japanese-was completed.
Unless additional directives are
received from Washington, a pros
pect now considered unlikely, no
more Chinese troops will be NOV
ed either by U. S. ships or planes,
the source added.
Coincident With this develop
ment, the Chinese press here play
ed up President Truman's state
ment demanding Chinese unity
and reports from Chungking said
five communist delegates who had
arrived for political consultative
council had expressed hope for
ending the civil war.

Christian Scientists
Study God AS Preserver

GOD THE PRESENTER OF
MAN" was the subject of the Les
son-Sermon in all Christian Sci
ence Churches and Societies on
Sunday, December 16.
The Golden Text was from
Psalms 121: 7, 8. The Lord shall
preserve thy soul. The Lord shall
preserve thy going out and thy
coming in from this time forth, and
even for evermore.
Among the citations comprising
the Lesson-Sermon were the fol.
lowing from the Bible: 'And many
nations shall come, and say, Come,
and let us go up to the mountain
of the Lord, and to the house Of
the God of Jacob; and he will
teach us of his ways, and we will
walk in his paths: And he shall
judge among many people, and
rebuke strong nations afar off;
and they shall beat their swords
into plow-shares, and their spears
into pruning hooks: nation shall
not lift up sword against nation
neither shall they learn war any
more. But they shall sit every
man under his vine and under his
fig tree; and none shall make. them
afraid: (Micah 4. 2, 3,"4)
The Lesson-Sermon also in
Guided the following passages
from the Christian Science text
book, Science and Health with
Key to the Scriptures" by Mary
Baker Eddy: ut should be tho
roughly understood that all mer
have one Mind, one God and Faith
er, one Life, Truth, and Love
Mankind will become perfect ir
proportion as this fact becomes ap
parent, war will cease and the true
brotherhood of man will be estab
lished. Having no other gods
turning to no other but the one per
feet Mind to guide him, man is the
likeness of God, pure and eternal
having that Mind which was also ir
Christ" page 467.)

C0ERINC ORDERED
SHOT BY HITLER
BY ANN sTRINGER
United Press Staff Correspondent

NUREMBERG, Dec. 17.-Adoh
Hitler ordered Hermann Goerine
arrested and shot on April q, 1945,
but the fat Luftwaffe leader was
rescued at the last minute by a
band of his own paratroopers, the
United Press learned today.
From the Nuremberg trial testi'
mony and interrogation of the Nazi
defendants, Allied Investigators
finally are unravelling the strange
story of Hitler, in his last hysteri-
cal days, turned against the man
he had appointed to succeed him.
Goering's fall from favor really
began with the mob-killing OF
Benito Mussolini in Northern
Italy. The pictures of his ex-
partner hanging by his heels from
the roof of a milan gasoline station
shook the Nazi fuehrer.
He apparently made up his mind
then to commit suicide and have
his body destroyed to avoid a
similar fate.
Originally, Hitler planned to kill
himself on April %, 1915. He is
sued orders that Goering, then at
Berchtesgaden, was to succeed
him.
But on the appointed day, Hit
ler's confused mind led him to
believe the battle of Berlin was
swinging in Germany's favor. and
he postponed his suicide.
Through some mix-up, however,
Goering received the expected
telegram that day authorizing him
to assume command. Convinced
the war was lost and willing to
surrender to the Allies, Goering
telegraphed Berlin for verification
of Hitler's death and complete
