China At Peace

After some ten years of factional
antagonism and no little internal fight
ing, China is at last at peace within it's
borders. To be sure the peace is repre-
sented only by truce, but as the Chi
nese communists have agreed to the
restoration of the Central governments
sovereignty in Manchuria, it is reason
able to believe that any remaining diff
ferences will be disposed of and the
truce be superseded by stable peace
agreements.
This fact, that Chinese sovereignty
is already accepted by the communists,
is the best assurance of a peaceful fu-
ture for the Chinese republic. Other
terms of the armistice fortify that as
surance, particularly those granting all
political parties equality before the law.
The communists had demanded that
they be given the right to set up their
own government, not as a party but
as separate state, maintain their own
separate army, and live without integral
association with the Central govern
ment. Now, by their own decision, they
may enjoy local self-government, as
may all other political groups, through
popular elections.
In return, the Central government
establishes the freedom of person,
conscience, speech, publication and as
ISOLATION of all Chinese, with safe
guards against illegal arrest and trial
a measure of democratic procedure en-
joyed only in the United States and
Britain.
There is still much to be done to
assure a safe and peaceful future for
the nation and the people, but the start
now made stimulates an optimistic
view. AS China under orderly condi-
lions is destined to have conspicuous
part in postwar world development, the
truce is a welcome step in the right
direction.

FINNDING A FOREIGN FR1ENn

FlNNDlNG A FOREIGN FRIEND
For several years prior to the
first world war, Milady had a cor.
respondent in a remote indian vii.
lage q do not recall how the first
contact was made, who kept her
supplied wit h beautiful laces,
which she sold to friends and
neighbors at astonishingly low
prices. The money that went to
India, 1t was reported to her, kept
a whole village alive. The war dis.
rupted commune atoms, and we
have. never learned how the vii
layers Jared after the American
memsahib was no longer able to

But the whole experience, while
involving no little labor, was a de.
light to Milady. We are fortunate
in having many foreign conta cts,

Okinawa The Key

AS VI Day recedes and the horrors
of the Pacific war lose the sharpness
of immediacy, use of the atomic bomb
to end the conflict is being condemned
by more and more stay-at-homes.
The fact that the only alternative
was invasion of the japanese home
islands and the terrific losses this
would have caused is widely overlook
ed or sidetracked, probably because so
much is and has been written about the
atomic bomb and it's destructive powers.
The nearest approach to what in
vasion of Japan would have meant is
shown in the losses on Okinawa, where
79,5O7 United States casualties were
counted.
Okinawa is but one small island,
but the Japanese had such powerful
defenses and such an advantage in ter
rain that its capture was costly beyond
any pre-invasion anticipation.
It was not only the actual battle
losses that made the campaign so cost
ly. To these are to be added non-com-
bat casualties. A new balance sheet has
just been prepared. The revised total
includes 21,342 Army, 1913 Marine
and 9,721 Navy battle casualties. Non
battle casualties were 1852 for the
Army and 1881 for the Marine Corps.
On the basis of these figures it now
is clear that the battle for Okinawa was
the toughest, costliest single engage
ment of our offensive in the Pacific.
Consider what the cost would have
been to conquer Japan by invasion.
The atomic bomb has presented

Secretary of Agriculture Anderson
recommends that food prices be advanc-
ed to take the place of government
subsidies. Office Of Price Administra-
ton chief, Chester Bowles, opposes the
plan and urges that government subsi-
dies be removed at slower rate than
Mr.. Anderson approves.
It is hard to see any material differ
ence between the two. In either case
the people pay. Subsidies can be financ-
ed only out of tax funds, which come
from the people. Increases in prices can
be financed only from the same source.
And there is no assurance that con-
tinuance of subsidies would be less cost
ly to the people than advances in food
prices. Any way you take it, old John
@. Citizen pays the toll.

Nearer Initiation

President Truman announces the
price of steel will be advanced. Some
one with authority to speak for Re-
conversion Director Snyder says the
increase will exceed the $3.50 a ton
which the OPA said it would approve.
By this means it is expected the
strike scheduled for next week in the
steel industry will either be averted or
short-lived. Steel plant workers have
demanded q So day increase in pay.
Their union leaders are expected to
agree to compromise, proportionate
to the advance in steel prices, and end
the strained relations between the
plants and labor.
The strike or its prevention will de-
pend upon the speed with which these
negotiations are conducted and con-
Guided.
In any event, what is liable to
transpire in the steel industry will
demonstrate the weakness of White
House leadership, victory for the
labor leaders who initiated the move
ment for preposterous increase in
pay for steel workers, and long step
toward initiation.
If anybody doubts that this country
ID steadily coming under the rule of a
minority it is only necessary to point
out that organized labor represents
but small fraction of the nations
population which gains more power
daily.
We defeated the dictators abroad
but are incapable of disposing of those
at home under our top leadership.

number Of men to be retained in their
areas there will be wide difference
in the number of veterans coming home
from the various zones.
Despite this discrepancy, however,
there should be some lessening Of the
tension.
The fact that the War Department
is reviewing the entire rehabilitation
problem should also be helpful.
At the same time it is not to be for
gotten, either by the CPS or members
Of Congress who are demanding a
special Investigation, that an important
service is still to be done in occupied
areas and that men for this service
must be Forthcoming, if not wholly from
volunteers and the draft, then from
the troops still under arms despite their
long service and magnificent battle
record.
The chief need is to determine the
minimum number of troops required
and send the rest home without further
ado.

making their stores the logical
places for the citizens of Fender,

Naturally, I agreed with him on
this. And it wasn't just a polite
agreement. I've been feeling that
way all along. Even if Wilmington

natural and commercial advantages
of which thousands of the folks in
the adjacent territories should
avail themselves.
