Hitler's Political Testament Found

NUREMBERG, Dec. 31- R- Hitler's last political testament, apparently prepared as Berlin tot tered before the Russian on slaught, is revealed as a master piece of propaganda in which he built himself up as a martyr, and bequeathed to the German people the Nazi creed of fierce loyalty to the State and hatred for Jews.
 His final admonition: Above all, enjoin the government, na- ton and the people, to uphold ra- cial laws to limit and resist merci- lessly the poisoner of all nations, International Jewry."
 The document, dated April 29, 1945, also disclosed that Hitler ex- pelled Goering and Himmler from Nazi ranks for attempting to seize control of the State, by 'negotiat- ing with the enemy without my knowledge"
 The text of the testament, to- gether with the texts of Hitler's personal will and appendix to the testament by Goebbels' document, recording Hitler's marriage to Eva Braun, was released yesterday by Allied authorities.
 Hitler's testament indicated he preferred suicide in the Reichs- chancellery bunker to a trial be- fore an Allied court. The docu- ments were recovered by Ameri- can intelligence agents. The Brit ish also seized a messenger who carried a duplicate set of docu- ments.

Chinese Plan For Truce

CHUNKGING, Dec. 3l-R- The Chinese Central Government countered the Communist plan for a truce by proposing to bring General Marshall into the discus SionS for the cessation of hostili- ties. The move to bring the Pres ident's special envoy into the peace picture came as Chiang made an outright bid for the Communist to join the Govern ment to unify China.
 The Government proposed that it and the Communists appoint representative to confer with General Marshall, the procedure halting hostilities and restoring railroad communications if ac- cepted.
 The governments counter pro- posals are to give General Mar shall a direct part in the attempts to avert all out civil war.
 In New Years message to the Chinese people, Chiang said the government was ready to invite the leaders of other political part ies to take part in the govern ment, in either policy-making councils or executive branches" They will be welcomed by the government, he said, before the national assembly meets May fifth to consider a new constitution for China.

TELEPHONE COMPANY RINGS IN THE NEW

With the cutting of the last link between the new Western Elec- tric switchboard and the 35-year- old system installed in 1910 by Harry Riley, the Alaska Telephone Company began ringing in better service for 1946.
 The new equipment will handle about fifty percent more calls than was possible on the old sys- tenn, which was handicapped by worn-out parts, which could not be replaced because of age.
 The outmoded cables and wir- ing relays have all been replaced with modern simplified units, which will make for much better and clearer telephone connections.
