fetal dispatch announced yester-
day. -.
This following announcement by
1t. Gen. Albert c. Wedemeyer.
commander of U. S. forces in
China, that U. S. Navy ships would
begin moving $4,000 men Of China's
Sixth Army to the Manchuriar
port of Hulutao within a week
weather permitting.
A note of cheerfulness was ap
parent today as representatives
of the National government, the
Communist party and the Demo
cratic League worked briskly be
hind the scenes to iron out various
differences on national problems
before the opening of the unity
conference Thursday.
The cheerfulness was based or
feeling the truce would be i'm.
plemented before the conference
gets under way. Some quarters
looked for the cease fire order to
come after tomorrow's meeting Of
the special committee.
Achievement of an actual truce
would mean one high hurdle has
been cleared. But there are many
others to be negotiated before
China can travel road of unity
and peaceful reconstruction.

Wilmington Man Felt

Full OF Stomach Ga.

Recently, a Wilmington man stat
ed that he used to feel like swol-
len balloon after every meal. He
would bloat full of gas and spit up
acidulous liquids for hours after
eating. Was terribly constipated.
This man is one of the hundreds in
this vicinity who now praise IN
NER-AID. He states he was amaz-
ed at the results when he took this
medicine. Now he eats what he
wants without gas or boating.

first time in years. He feels like
new man.
INNER-AID contains 70 Great

it's resignation en- masse as, the
result of a new purge" order by
General Macarthur was said offici-
ally today to depend on Premier
Kiiuro Shidehara, who feels the
time for decision has not arrived.
Chief Cabinet Secretary Daisa-
buro Tsugita said after an erner-
gency four-hour session that the
meeting brought no discussions of
the possibility of any. members re-.
signing. Tsugita said the matter
rested with the premier.
The emergency session was de-
voted to technical discussions OF
imperial ordinances to effect Mac
Arthur's directive ordering wide
spread ousting of Japanese office
holders who led japan into the war.
With newspapers asserting at
least six cabinet members come
within the specific atoms listed by
Macarthur for dismissal, informed

chief Cabinet Secretary Miyoshi as
saying that Foreign Minister Shi-

Headquarters said no request for
such a meeting had been received.
One source close to Shidehara
said Yoshida might ask Macarthur
to permit the entire cabinet to
remain in office until after the
Japanese election, the date for
which has not yet been set.
Some papers listed Yoshida ane
Shidehara as the only two mem
