Meanwhile, the Chinese State
Council threw out write-in ballots

The action followed complaints by

we're beaten by voters who wrote in

The minority parties had been

Chinese Reds Seen
Holding Initiative
Along All Fronts
BY the Associated Press

NANKING. Nov. 29-Pro-govern-
ment reports OF Communist gains at
scattered points in China and in
Manchufia lent support today to
estimates by neutral observers that
the Communists were holding the
initiative on all civil war fronts.
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek,
striving to counter the Communist
blows, wound up series of military
conferences in Peiping, while his
minister of national defense, Gen.
Pal Chung g-hsi, took command of a
new headquarters at Kiukiang, on
the Yangtze River 300 miles south
west of Nanking.
Red Raider in Yangtze Valley.
Gen. Pal, assigned to drive the
one-eyed Red Raider Gen. Lui Po-
cheng from the Yangtze valley, was
said by informed quarters to have
six or more divisions for the pur-
pose.
He expressed confidence he would
quickly break Gen. Liu's hold north
of the river, but onlookers in Nam
king considered this optimistic.
These observers were of the
opinion that Gen. Liu's break into
the area far behind the usual lines"
was not the harass1ng campaign it
appeared to be last Summer, but
was part of long range Communist
scheme to establish a major base
for an eventual push on both sides
Of the river into the very heart of
government territory.
Progovernment accounts, mean
while, acknowledged that the Com
munists for the fifth time in three
months had captured Kiaohsien, As
miles northwest Of Tsingtao, had
burst into Kaomi, 20 miles farther
northwest, and were threatening a
string of towns on the Shantung
Peninsula between Tsingtao and
Chefoo.
Gen. Chiang's visit to Peiping has
resulted in abolition of the govern
ment's paciflcation headquarters at
Paoting and Kalgan and creation
of a new North China advance
headquarters in Peiping under COM
mand of Gen. Flu Tso-yi, it was
learned.
Gen. Chang left Peiping today
after a series of conferences seek
ing means of coping with the re-
surgent Communists.
Gen. Flu, famed as the conqueror
of Kalgan, is one Of the few Ma
tionalist generals who has fought
successfully against the Commu-
nists. He has been in charge of the
Kalgan headquarters. Gen. Sun
Lien-chung commanded at Paoting.
| Gen. Chang asked Gen. Sun to
stay on as Governor of Hopeh Prov
ince, but this was described as a
face saving request which Gen. Sun
probably will refuse.

Marshall and former Secretary Of
War Paterson. Meanwhile, a
bill, described as one meant to
overcome objections to the STRAIT
ton bill, was introduced in the
House by Congressman Chef Of
Kentucky which called for the adj
mission of 100000 DPS in the
fiscal year following passage Of
the bill. However, no action was
taken before Congress adjourned
for its summer recess.
The increase in Zionist activity
in this country reached new
high in 5707, with the Zionist
Organization of America report
ing that it's greatly-expanded
membership was actively engaged
in numerous Zionist projects. At
the ZOA's 5Oth annual conven-
ton in New York, where DR..
Emanuel Neumann was elected
president to succeed DR.. Abba
Hillel Silver, it was pointed out
that the assertion by Secretary
of State Marshall to Congress
that Americas traditional policy
on Palestine had not changed was
most gratifying.
Judge Morris Rothenberg, pres
ident of the American Jewish
National Fund, reported to the
1000 delegates that American
Jews had contributed some
S14,O00,OOO to the JNF during the
first nine months of 57O7. It was
also reported that the JNF now
owns 100000 dunams of land in
Palestine of the total 100000.

After nearly three weeks of
hearing testimony on the Pales-
tine issues, the UN General AS
sembly appointed an eleven-mem-
Der inquiry committee with wide
powers to investigate the situat-
ion in Palestine, record its find
ings and offer such recommen-
dations for solution as it deemed
appropriate. The members of the
inquiry committee were Canada,
Czechoslovakia, Iran, the Neither
lands, Peru, Sweden, Hungary,
Yugoslavia, Guatemala, Australia
and India.
Early in 1947, President Tru-
man, in his State of the Union
message, said that the United
States had not done enough in adj
uniting large numbers of Euro
pean displaced persons to this
country. Calling for legislation
which would enable greater num-
bers of refugees to enter the Unit
ed States as quota immigrants,
the President also decried racial
bigotry in this country and told
Congress that existing legisla-
ton does not reach "the limit of
Federal power to protect the civil
rights of its citizens" Mr.. Tru-
man also urged the establish
ment of a permanent Federal law
which would prevent racial and
religious discrimination in en-
ployment.
The Stratton Bill to admit
100000 European displaced per-
sons to this country during the
next four years was strongly
supported by the Administration,
as well as by several Cabinet men,

highlighted the fight against anti
Semitism in the United States.
A report issued by the Anti
Defamation League pointed out
that domestic rabble-rousers and
their various organizations, which
had been driven underground dur
ing the war, re-emerged bold and
articulate" in 5707, but their in
fluence on public thinking had
been curtailed.
The ADJ asserted that anti
Semitic incidents were offset by
strong positive action on the part
of an informed public. The sur
vey revealed also that a section of
the US. population remains in
tested with the virus of anti
Semitism and that a large num-
Der of anti-Semitic and un-Ameri-
can organizations continue with
out any interference. Although
negligible in influence at present,
the leaders of these groups main
tain close relations. The ADJ
report also added that the bigger
stumbling block to these hate
groups was an informed public
opinion, as a result of which these
groups failed to make any real
Roadway among the American
people.
An awakening of interest in
Jewish religious education was
