Close in on Communists

NANKING, April S tP).-Chinese
government accounts today pictured
Nationalist armies as tightening q
three clamp on the Com
munists who were driven out of
their capital OF Yenan March 10.
These dispatches said the forces
which took Yenan in Shensi Prov
ince were near Suiteh. 81 miles to
the northeast. and were advancing
under air cover. ....
Another column was reported to
have speared into Shensi from the
northwest, while third, moving
down southwestward in Northern
Shansi Province, captured Pinglu, a
border bastion.
Military observers said the capture
of Suiteh would virtually wind up
the civil war in Shensi Province.
Government officers predicted 1t in
a few days.
However, the independent news
paper Hsin Min PAo said that the
Communists, with their retreat to
the north being thus squeezed of.
were running supplies eastward
across Shansi into the Taihsing
Mountains of the Shansi-Hopeh
border area and intended to conduct
guerrilla campaign from there.

cost of accidents a year caused by

The young driver has the worst
record per mile of driving on cur
city streets. When he reaches the
age of 81. he still will have about

said that while he agreed with Mr..
Duvall. he deplored the lack Of

Debate Is Heated.
Most heated debate of the ses-

voted down a proposed bylaws
amendment that would bar dele
gates representing the federation
from appearing before Congress or
the Commissioners when he has
special interest, business Oh
financial, in the matter to be pre-
sented."
Ralph W. Donnelly, chairman OF
the Constitution and Rules Amend
ments Committee, recommended
disapproval of the proposal. The
question should be matter OF
personal ethics with the delegate
and the president who appoints
him, he asserted Besides, he
added. the proposal would be i'm
possible to enforce. .....
Harry S. Wender, Southwest, said
the federation has been misrepre-
sented in very few cases.
And in every instance, the dele
gate has been severely called down
for it, he added.
