Marshall Peace Pleas
lin China Have Failed,
Shanghai Sources Say
By the Associated Press

SHANGHAI, July 20.-Diplomatic
sources privately agreed today that
Gen. George A. Marshall's peace
mission to China had failed.
Seemingly confirming the opinion,
the Nationalist government began
moving more men toward the fight
ing fronts and the Communists were
reported reinforcing their positions.
Gen. Marshall was believed un-
likely to have the opportunity to
confer with Generalissimo Chang
Kai-shek in the summer capital at
Kuling. where the general went with
United States Ambassador DR.. John
Leighton Stuart.
Communists Pessimistic.
A similar pessimistic attitude was
expressed at the Communist head
quarters in Marking when a check
was made on whether or not Com
munist Chief Negotiator Gen. Chou
En-lai would visit Kuling to talk
with Chang. The official asked the
question countered with the COM
ment:
There's nothing left to talk
about"
Meanwhile. quarters processing to
be "in the know" predicted Gen.
Marshall would return home around
the middle of August after making
a final best effort to retrieve the
steadily deteriorating situation.
This view comedies with the per-
sistent reports that the Government
has abandoned all hopes of peace
full settlement and intends to launch
an all-out attack against the Com
munists in September.
The rumors also are persistent
that the attack would have been
mounted some weeks ago save for
the vigorous protestations by Gen.
Marshall.
May Withdraw Troops.
1t Is predicted that II the United
States envoy abandons the peace
mission as a bad job, American
forces in China will be speedily
withdrawn.
Nationalist troops on the move to-
day included reinforcements for the
north bank of the lower Yangtze
River to safeguard river communi-
cations between Shanghai and Nam
king and to forestall any possible
Communist attempt to cross the
waterway to menace the Shanghai
Marking railway.
Three thousand Nationalist troops
left here Friday morning and others
were reported en- route to the fronts.
Size and destination of Com
munist movements were not report
ed.

I Marines Reported
Released in China
BY the kssoeio'sd Press

MUKDEN. July 2O.-Nationalist
sources here reported unofficiaily
today that seven United States Ma
rines who were captured by an
armed band near Chinwangtao a
week ago had been released by
Communists"
Yesterday at Peiping Marine
headquarters called off a search by
two regiments of unsupported Ma.
rines in the Chinwangtao area to
permit negotiations for release of
the men by a truce team. The
Marines did not, however, identify
the captors as Communists.
The men were taken prisoner by
armed Chinese when they went to
"a village north of Chinwangtao to
purchase ice. Nationalists said the
band consisted of 200 Communists. +"
Nationalist sources Immediately
charged that Communists had
seized the Americans and govern
ment troops assisted in the search.
The ice detachment's jeep was
found in the village, the only an
nounced clue that has been un-
earthed. One man of the group es-
capped by being hidden in the ice-
house by friendly Chinese.

Churchill AssaiIs Efforts
To Curb Free Speech
By the AsIocioted Press

LONDON, July 90 Winston
Churchill and Attorney General Sir
Hartley Shawcross clashed verbally
last night during by-election cam
paign speeches at Bexley over pro-
posed government investigation into
the ownership of British newspapers
and newspaper groups.
Asserting that the Labor govern
ment was already reaching out
their hands against the freedom of
the press" Mr.. Churchill declared
that government leaders do not like
to be criticized"
IT am for free speech" he said,
"and think that every one should say
what they like"
Sir Hartley, in support of the in
vestigation, assailed what he called
the campaign of calumny and mis-
representation which the Tory party
and the Tory stooge press have been
directing against the Labor govern
ment."

6 Million Feet of Lumber
Lost in Oregon Fire
By the Associated Press

REEDSPORT, Greg, July 20.-
One of Oregon's largest remaining
stands Of virgin timber apparently
was safe today after 100 men
brought under control a forest fire
which devoured 100000 board feet
Of felled trees.
Trails were dug around the blaze
last night after it threatened to
reach the green timber of the
Oregon and California Revested
Lands Administration.
The fire, breaking out in a wave
of high temperatures and dan
gerously low humidity, blackened SO
to 100 acres northeast of Scottsburg
in this Central Oregon coastal area.
A crew had battled the flames since
Thursday.

help the administration in the
pinches and has been faithful to
that promise.
Regarding FEPC, they raise the
question of just how hard the ad-
ministration tried to put over that
controversial measure. 1t is true
that one does not have to be unduly
cynical to accept the fact that FEPC

The President Had Fun.
Whether it was good politics or
not, the President obviously had fun
axing Slaughter. He took all the
credit for master-minding Kansas
City Boss Pendergast's support of
Enos Axtell and muttered, half to
himself, that almost any one would
be better than Representative
Slaughter.
His only difficulty was that he
couldn't remember the first name
of Mr.. Axtell whom he had just
lathered as very old friend and
Evening star., 1946-07-20

Representative Slaughter seems to
gall his Jackson County neighbo,
both politically anc personally. The
first angle is obvious.
Importance of Race.
His race is as important to the
administration as that of any Sena-
tor because he has a balance OF
power vote on the Rules Com
mittee which determines what legis-
lation shall reach the House floor
He has often used it against Presi-
dent Truman, notably in the case
of the Fair Employment Practices
Act.
The party story is: We did the
young man great favor by putting
him on rules at Mr.. Truman'S
request-he was the first freshman
ever to make it-and look how he
treats US.
Rep. Slaughter's friends aver that
Truman had nothing to do with it;
that Mr.. Slaughter agreed only to

neighbor. A wave of hilarity swept
the room as Kansas City reporter
rescued him with the correct name.
A few minutes previously he had
had trouble distinguishing Bishop

uncommon failing, among politicians
to have name trouble. The late

last spring to proposal that Mr.
Wheeler be read out" of the party
and passed the proposal on to the
President. The President vetoed it
Whispers at That Time.
At the time there were whispers
that tire President acted then on
the advice of Secretary Byrnes. just
as there are whispers now that Mr.
Byrnes advised the recent interces-
sion in the Montana primary
Neither of these rumors would seem
to have any basis. In the first
place, President capable of taking
positive action in Mr.. Wheeler's be-
half would hardly have needed to be
advised against the reading-out pro-
posal. In the second place Mr.
Byrnes was abroad when the Presi-
dent wrote his letter. And in any
case, Mr.. Byrnes just doesn't believe
in presidential interference In State
affairs.
Getting back to Mr.. Hannegan, II
the chairman had been writing to
Montana, it wouldn't have been in
Mr.. Wheeler's behalf; it would have
been in behalf of his opponent. Mr..
Erickson was campaigning on an
out-and- -out New Deal platform and
he had the open backing of Senator
Murray, one of the strongest sup
porters of the administration in the
Senate. The battle, indeed, was as
much between Messrs. Murray and
Wheeler as it was between MeSsrs
Wheeler and Erickson.
Senator Murray has been Mr.
Hannegan's notion OF what Demo-
cratic Senator should be and Mr..
Wheeler just the reverse. More than
one of MIR. Hannegan's speeches con-
demning Democrats who insist on
going their own way regardless of
consequences, were tailored to it
Senator Wheeler.
So the national chairman, If he
had been advising the President In
this instance, would have said, like
the darky in the story, "Oh. Lawd
if you CANT help me, foh Heavens
sake don't help dat bear!" He
would have said the least the Presi-
dent could do for him was to stay
out Of the Montana fight.
Reaction Waited.
It remains to be seen whether
Senator Murray and the new Sena-
tor-assuming Erickson is elected in
the fall-take their politics as a
purely personal business or as some
thing more than that. If their re-
action is wholly personal the Presi-
dent will find he has lost two sup
porters in his ill-conceived effort to
win over one consistent opponent.
Mr.. Murray's Senatorial career,
however, argues against his carry
ing his resentment to any such ex-
treme. He seems really to believe
what he believes and never to quit
when fighting for a principle. 1t has
been SO with his bills for full en-
ployment, for public health and for
a Missouri Valley authority and
his support of all humanitarian
measures. No longer young, he
doubtless is happy to have a husky

young colleague who shares his views
and can be expected to share his
battles-including those still to come
in Montana, where Mr. Wheeler Is
unlikely to remain idle.
But this doesn't mean any fight
with the President. unless he has
reason to believe Mr.. Wheeler is
receiving further encouragement
from the White House.
