Looking At
 Asiatic Situation

Japan said she was through with war forever. The new consti- tuition of the crushed nation an- nounced in Tokyo, that it will re- nounce war for all time, prohibits the maintenance of armed forces and reduced the Emperor to a symbol state and vested sovereign ty in the people, and substituted an elective House of Councillors for the once powerful House of Peers.
 The new constitution listed as revolutionary the rights of Hiro- hito, who not long ago stepped down from the "god" station.
 Meanwhile the Manchurian sit uation continued to furroW off cial Chinese brows. Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Liu Chieh, told newSmen in Chungking that Rus sia is blaming unspecified diff culties" for the delay in with drawing Soviet troops from the big territory. Liu said China is pressing Russia for such with draWal and is keeping United States informed of negotiations. He declined to comment on a newsman's question if the pres ence of Russian forces in South ern Manchurian port Dairen, and the exclusion of Chinese troops from that city constituted a viola ton of the Sino-Russian treaty.
 In Hankow China's unity com mittee, headed by General Mar shall, expressed confidence that the nations erring factions twill immediately terminate" all vio- lence.

Churchill Asks
 For Britain-U. $. Military Alliance

 He declared "thus, whatever happens, thus only shall we be able to secure ourselves and able to work together for high simple causes that are so dear to us, and bode no i'll to any. Eventually there may come the principle of common citizenship, but that we will be content to leave to the des- tiny whose outstretched arm SO many of us can clearly sec"
 Except in the British Common wealth and the United States, he said, fearfully "Communist part ies or fifth columns constitute a growing challenge to the peril of Christian civilization"
