passed many resolutions whose gen.
eral trend was request that corn
price ceilings should be raised to
enable poultrymen to buy corn that
otherwise would be used to produce
pork. The expected break in egg
prices has not materialized, but Ohio
poultrymen are advised to make
sure of feed supply before plan
ming any expansion in their poultry
enterprises.

Communists Make Peace Overtures

NANKING, (PD - The Chinese Communists offered today to make a fresh start" at peace negotia- tions but under such rigorous con- ditions that sources close to Chiang Kai-Shek said there was no possi- bility the offer would get serious consideration.
 The offer came in the form of a formal communication from Gen. Chou En-Lai, chief communist ne- gotiator now back in Nanking, to General Marshall, special U. S. envoy.
 Chou described the terms as the only ones under which the Com munists would consider resuming negotiations. They were:
 1. The Kuomintang govern ment party) must dissolve imme- diately the national assembly, which now is meeting in Nanking drafting a new constitution. The communists have refused to at tend.

The 9Th Division, less it's 4th

The diSbandment of the division
and the activation of a new Sd
Marine Brigade is in accordance
with an established postwar Marine
schedule. Maj. Gen. Arch F. Howard,
commander of the 9Th and of the
new brigade explained. He said
a new brigade commander was ex-
pected shortly.
The Marine Corps still has the

Air Wing, at Tientsin, in the China

Brig. Gen. William T. Clement of
Richmond, Va, former assistant
commander of the 9th Division, will
continue in the same capacity with
the new brigade.
Col. Harry E. Dunkelberger of

The 9Th Division was organized
on Guadalcanal in September, 1914
with the LIST Provisional Brigade
which saw some of the hardest
fighting at Guam, as the nucleus.
The division fought with distinction
at Okinawa.
Today's deactivation was accom-
pllshed by the disbanding of the
18th, 22d and 29th Regiments and

Allies Push Campaign
On Nazi Plots After
Roundup Of 1000
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

FRANKFURT, April 1.-American
intelligence officers today said sew
eral Nazi subversive movements still
were plotting against the Allies in
Germany and that yesterday s
roundup OF nearly 1000 Hitler Youth
conspirators was only the begin
ming"
The officers said counterespionage
agents were working day and night
to break up the last vestiges OF
Nazi resistance which came into the
open with the weekend sweep on
followers of captured Arthur AK
mann, former head of the Hitler
Youth movement.
The operation against the Ak
mann group is still going on, it was
said, although only remnants of the
group remain.
Virtually all the funds which
Hitler in the last days of Berlin
handed over to Axmann to keep
alive the Nazi philosophy were
seized when Will Heidemann, Ak
mann's key henchman, was cap
tured.
About 20 per cent of the target
suspects in the weekend roundup
had left or fed their addresses when
the agents struck, however.
No casualties were reported
among the 1000 Allied combat
troops and counterespionage agents
who participated in the raids.
Gunfire was reported to have
broken out in several of the 200
towns raided in Western Germany
and Austria, but American intelli-
gence officers said they had received
no word of any casualties.
United States Army headquarters
said that incomplete reports indi-
Gated the manhunt was carried
out without unusual incidents. Most
of the suspects seized offered no re-
sistance.
Intelligence officers still declined
to give details of the capture last
December of Axmann.

today called on Congress to let the
Draft Act die May IS, saying: while
I fear the future as matters now
drift, I am sure that we are not on
the eve Of war with the U. S. S. r."
In testimony prepared for Senate
Military Affairs Committee hearings
on extending selective service, Mr..
Thomas cited a previous assertion
by Secretary Of War Patterson that
without the draft the Army might
fall 100000 men short Of its needs
by July /, 1947
Saying I'VE are grateful to Secre-
tary Patterson TOR exposing by his
own figures the weakness of his own
case" the white-haired Socialist
added:
"A bewildered administration is
not merely trying to stampede Con-
gress and the public for the
sake Of 10000 men. 1t is trying to
cover over its own lack of a proper
foreign policy or Of an interim mill
tary policy during the period of
transition toward a peaceful world"
Urges Balanced Peace Program.
Speaking of "the fear of Russia
which the advocates of conscription
cleverly exploit" Mr.. Thomas de-
clared:
1.-The first step that must be taken
to end fear Of Russia is American
leadership in a balanced program
fit for peace. . In the world of
the atomic bomb there is neither
peace nor security in anything less
than complete national disarma-
ment down to the level of forces
necessary to maintain internal Or
der. -"
ut Is unreasonable, however, to
think that we shall get world dis
armament unless we also get
a general liquidation of all forms

eide to delay action on the proposed

wasting away of our military and

local board estimates raised doubts
whether the boards could meet the
April quota. The War Department
had increased it's call In an effort
to overcome shortages Of the last
several months and to beat the
threatened end Of the draft.
A draft spokesman said selective
service still had hopes of filling the
call, but he indicated that Army
physicians will have to apply lib
orally the physical standards low
cred last month to an absolute
minimum.
A District draft spokesman said
boards here would be able to fill
only so per cent Of the April call.
