Gen. Marshall To China

Major General Patrick J. Hurleys state
ment in connection with his resignation as
Ambassador to China reveals sympathy with
the Chinese communists among group OF
American officials whose chief object, it ap"
pears is to keep China divided against itself.
After arrival in Chungking, says the General,
returned to Washington. where some were Civ
en- posts in the State Department where they
continued their activities in behalf of the com.
munists while others were sent to Tokyo as
advisors to the Supreme Commander, Gen
eral Macarthur.
General Hurleys revelations draw attention
to whispers heard in high places that it is
practically impossible to keep from stumbling
over communists in government positions. If
they are as thick as rumored it is not sur
prisng that conditions in China, to cite one
example only are beyond control, as the Cen
eral declares.
On top of this comes word from Associated
Press Correspondent Richard Gushing, in
Shanghai, that American hiers are hopping
the hump from India and Burma to carry
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek's forces, and
that the members of the American Air Forces
are debating angrily'' this postwar assign
ment which has cost the lives Of several and
under the best Of conditions is a dangerous
undertaking. Every fyable plane. air officers
told Mr.. Cushing, is being flown into China
and some seven hundred planes are being
assembled in the Shanghai area, with the
Tenth Air Force bringing in transports and
the Fourteenth fighter planes.
This situation taken in combination with
past American fleet operations off the Man.
churian coast and other American military
activities in Asia justify the supposition that
before peace is established in China, United
States forces will become involved in the civil
war between the Central Government and the
communists in the north. Perhaps this is what
the American communists have as an objec
tive, with an ultimate showdown hoped for
between the United States and the Soviet
Union.
1t is into this troubled situation that Gen.
eral of the Army George c. Marshall is be.
ing sent as President Truman's special envoy
with ambassadorial powers. Having served
the nation as Chief of Staff throughout the
Great War with distinction, General Marshall
who surrendered that post only last week to
General Eisenhower, obviously is glutton
for punishment. His selection, in view of his
previous tasks and need for long physical
and mental rest shows either that President
Truman believes him the one man who can
untangle the Asiatic snarl or scarcity Of
able men capable of dealing with the prob
lens that must be solved before China or any
region of Asia can have peace.

Walter J. Cartier. former Secre-

much thought be given to the type

THE word is going out to union

"Past procedure indicates that

Enthusiasm Fades

President Truman's enthusiasm for the Mis-
souri, Valley Authority, which would b
modelled largely on the Tennessee Valley Au
thority pattern, is said to be fading. AT leas
that is the opinion reflected in brief article
N the New York Times, which says:
Some persons who attended the meet
ing of the National Reclamation Associ-
alton in Denver last week are said to have
come away with the impression that Pres
ident Truman is not as "enthused'' about
the proposed Missouri Valley Authority
project as he was when he spoke at the
dedication of the Gilbertsville Ky) dam
of the Tennessee Valley Authority last
month. At that time the President praised
the Federal, or emergency, aspect of the
IVA, but in Denver, according to an OBJ
server, he laid stress on the fact that
the key to success of any regional re-
source development will be found in how
active cooperation is organized between
the people of the region, their civic and
commercial organizations and local and
Federal Governments The manner in
which these agencies work together and
at the same time work with local political
units and private organizations will be
watched closely" The reaction of some
people who attended, the Denver meeting
was that opponents of the MVA, both in
Congress and in private industry, are
meeting with heartening progress.
