The complex and delicate Man

reports and statements from Chinese
Nationalists and Communist news

These included a China Times
story that Soviet demands called
for Chinese-Russian development of

of Manchuria, Russian navigation
rights on the Sungari River in
Northern Manchuria, and joint
Chinese Russian ownership and op-

Chinese Communists, on the other

His Wartime Powers
Must Be Ended Soon

President Truman received q re-
minder today that Congress wants
to rescind soon the broad powers it
granted the White House as a war
time necessity.
The reminder came from the
House Judiciary Committee even as
it agreed to a six months extension
of the Second War Powers Act, now
due to expire December 81.
During our preparation for an
adequate national defense and while
= the shooting part of the war
was on, the Congress of necessity
had to grant extraordinary powers,
the committee said.
Want to Regain Powers.
Now that we have won back
much of our safety and peace, it is
the determination of Congress to
Irecapture those powers as speedily
as may be wise. for the people, so
that they may be again exercised In
accordance with the slower but more
desirable processes of democracy"
The statements were contained In
report which the committee has
approved but not yet released off,
cially. A copy was made available
to reporter.
Although urging the abolition
soon of most war powers, the re-
port said continuation Of some
such as rationing and priority con-
trols-is needed to assure an orderly

Control over critical materials
