SHANGHAI, Dec. Lit. Gen. Al
bert C. Wedemeyer, commander of
United States forces in China, today
termed the appointment of Gen
George c. Marshall as envoy most
fortunate"
He told newsmen at a conference
that Gen. Marshall is well equipped
to decide Immediately such difficult
questions as whether I to withdraw
American Marines and whether to
sell war materiel to China.
Asked whether the United States
would transport Chinese government
forces to Manchuria by air, Gen
Wedemeyer replied that "Manchuria
Is a Russian theater of operations
and If Chinese and Russians are
holding the discussions in that re-
gard, they are on a higher level
than myself-the two can make
agreements without involving me"
Confirming that hundreds of
American aircraft had been or
dered flown into the Shanghai area
from India and Burma, Gen. Wede-
meyer told newsmen that he per-
sonally had ordered the mass flights
halted when he learned that wealth.

of % fighter planes on one hop in
Eastern China. He said he wanted
no more flying around in bad
weather. don't want to jeopardize
American lives"
At last reports, two pilots were
dead and one missing. from the lost
fighter planes.
No combat planes have been given
to China since the war ended, he
added, and only non-combat types
were being assembled for possible
sale to Chang Kai-shek's govern
ment.
He offered no further explanation
Of recent fighter-plane hops to
Shanghai, beyond saying that he
was trying to contact Americans

vitation came from the President as
the result Of conversation they had
some time ago at the hospital. Des-
pairing of efforts to obtain tickets
in any other way, one of them wrote
to Mr.. Truman, who extended them
an invitation and gave them his last
five tickets.
At the station this morning the
five refused to talk with newspaper
men. one of them explaining:
I'VE don't want our names in the
paper. We're just going to see the
Army-Navy football game"
Other Veterans Disappointed.
Efforts by group of Washington
civilians, headed by w. j. Hays
House liaison officer for surplus
property, to take a group of 10 vet
Grams to the game in cars, came to
nothing as result of War De-
partment ruling that special chairs
could not be placed along the side
lines. Tickets were not available for
them.
Mr.. Hays appealed to the War De-
partment but was told that because
of the construction of the stadium
at Philadelphia, it was impossible to
place the special seats before the
stands. Even photographers, the
War Department said, would have
to work from the stands.
Mr.. Hays and his group not only
had arranged automobile transpor-
tation for the wounded veterans but
also had provided for their over
night lodging in Philadelphia.

WHAT NEXT?
BY Ruth TAYLOR

Amidst the exuberant rejoicing at
the end of the Second World War, amid
the heartfelt prayers of gratitude
over the Victory, there is one fact
which is pre-eminent. The atomic
bomb that prefaced the final outcome
marked the end not only Of war but
Of an era.
'"The old order changeth, yield
ing place to new;
And God fulfills Himself in
many ways,
Lest one good custom should
corrupt the world"
So wrote Tennyson at the turn OF
the century.
The devastation wrought by the
atomic bomb, the revelation of the
terror it can make of war, demands
an equally great invention for the
preservation of peace, a thoughtful
purposeful meeting of a new way OF
life.
V-J Day marks not merely the end
OF period of destruction, but the
beginning of a period of construc-
tion. Like old buildings blasted away
by bombings, so have old ideas, old
prejudices, old misconceptions been
blasted away under the spiritual
bombing Of war. Now we can begin
to clear away the rubble and builc
not merely new community but a
new world.
War has blasted a pathway uniting
the peoples of the earth. We must
level this pathway into road upor
which human beings of all creeds, al
races, all tongues, even though they
start at different places and move
at different rates of progress, may
march along, in the full stature anc
dignity of free men-to a goal Of
peace and security.
1t is time, not space that has shrivel
led. We have learned that our world is
but succession of small communi
ties, all linked together, all interde
pendent, like parts of a great chain
We have learned that one cannot
have peace and prosperity unless al
have it. Peace can never be merely
the absence of war. Victory does mo-
