Five Students Killed
In Riots asChinese
Crisis Is Intensified
BY the Associated Press

SHANGHAI, May 31.-A riot In
which five students we're reported
killed and scores we're injured or
missing featured China's deepening
crisis today.
The civil war worsened, currency
declined steadily and the nation
figuratively held its breath in antici-
patton Of the threatened antiwar
student demonstrations two days
hence.
Dispatches from Canton said 1000
students of Sun Yat-Sen University
began premature demonstration
and that five were bumped of" in
melee for which responsibility
was not clearly fixed.
The Canton garrison clapped an
IL pm. curfew on the city, patrolled
the streets in armored cars and
searched incoming trains and ships
for suspected troublemakers.
Communist Agents Seized.
In Shanghai, troops continued
arresting alleged Communist agents
but apparently ceased selling stu
dents after Fridays predawn raids
on dormitories. University profess
sors were seeking to win the re-
lease on habeas corpus of the 40
odd students already apprehended.
The professors themselves con-
tinued on a protest strike along
with thousands of students.
Martial law and 10 pm. curfeW
were invoked afresh in Peiping when
the police asserted that band of
200 Communists had inflltrated into
the city to foment unrest. Peiping
police indicated they intended to
suppress any public demonstrations
but there was evident uneasineSs
over what might happen Monday.
The black market rate of govern
ment currency went to $4,000 to 81

steadily. The official rate remained

the government would have to
change it to approach reality.

Train Derailed by Mine.
On the military front, Commu-

the Peiping -Mukden line So miles
northeast of Tangku. Chinese press
accounts said hundreds of paSsen-
gers were injured but gave no death
list.
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek
who flew to Mukden to put spine
into his troops defense of Manchu-
ria, returned to Marking. Some
quarters specialized that he may
have ordered a new strategy in
which the government forces would
avoid past over-extension OF their

u. 5. Buying Tine
For Greece in Face
|0f Russian Threat
BY tho Assoeioted Press


ATHENS. May 31.-Anlerican dol
lars are buying a little time" In
the words OF one American official.
for this strife-torn country. a tar
get of communism and one of the
three nations lying athwart the
lines of possible Soviet expansion
into the Middle East.
The United States has loaned
Greece $500, 900 900 to contain
communism and a smaller sum to
Turkey, but American negotiations
with Iran were seen here as indicat-
ing that the American supported
line of resistance will extend the
Caspian to the Adriatic.
Iran to Get Funds.
A high diplomatic source said in
Teheran two weeks ago that the
United States had tentatively agreed
to advance the Iranian government
la $4,000, 900 to $4,000 900 credit
for purchase of American military
supplies. The United States Am
bassador to Iran, George v. Allen,
said that the United States pre-
sumed the supplies would be used
ito maintain internal security and
to defend the country, in case of
need, from any foreign aggression. "
Estate Department officials in
Washington said yesterday that
Brig. Gen. H. Norman Schwartz
kopf, former head of the New
Jersey State Police, had arrived
from Iran to take part in nego-
tiations for military supplies.
He Is head of an American mill
tary mission which is training the
Iranian gendarmerie)
Virtually the entire 50-man mill
tary mission sent from the United
States to Athens in connection with
the American loan has arrived, and
conferences with Greek military
leaders have been under way for
several days.
Economic Situation Precarious.
! While Greece's internal disorders
and. external threat are primary
problems for officials deciding how to
spend the American loan, her
economy remains precarious.
A drought, described unofficially
as the worst in 80 years, has cut
sharply into agricultural produc-
ton. Thirty per cent of the cereal
crop has been reported lost, making
it necessary to import nearly 6O0,-
900 tons of wheat instead of
half that amount as originally
planned.
Greece's dollar exchange is vir-
tually nonexistent.
But despite what appears to be
a series of unending major problems
for Greece, the man in the street
and government circles feel con-
fldent the nation will survive its
trials because virtually every Greek
believes in the omnipotency of the
United States.
