Princess Elizabeth And New Heir
Presumptive To English Throne Are
Reported To Be Resting Comfortably

, London, Nov. 15-(AP)-Buck-
| ingham Palace flashed word to
jubilant Britain today that the
condition Of Princess Elizabeth
and her new son "is satisfac-
tory"
The doctors who attended the
birth at 9:24 GAIA P. M. EST
last night visited the mother and
baby early this morning while
church bells pealed and joyous
crowds clustered at the palace
gates.
They issued this bulletin:
"Her Royal Highness Princess
Elizabeth has had some sleep
during the night. Her condition
and that of the infant prince is
satisfactory"
The baby weighed seven
pounds, six ounces. Members
of the court said he was love-
ly boy, really splendid baby"
and "a bonny lad"
Court circles said the word
ing of the doctors bulletin, re-
ferring to "some" sleep, indicat-
ed the Princess did not have an
entirely restful night.
But the birth evidently was
uncomplicated and the labor
short. The baby arrived o
quickly some officials called to
the Palace for the birth still
were on the way when the Price
was born.
The baby was born in a
specially prepared room on the
second floor of the Palace.
Britain and the overseas do
minions gave the infant who
may one day rule the empire a
royal welcome today.
Last nights momentous news
of the birth came in a terse
announcement from the doctors
attending the Princess. Joyous
thousands, who had waited for
hours in the mild evening, heard
of the safe delivery nearly an
hour after the birth.
"Her royal highness and her
son are both doing WE'LL" the
bulletin said.
That was the signal for thun-
derous cheers, wild handwriting
and an outburst of enthusiasm
such as austere London has mont
known since Elizabeth and hand
some Prince Philip were marri-
ed last November.
The birth came six dmays be-
fore the first anniversary of that
dramatic event in Westminster
Abbey.
In time, the child doubtless
will be designated Prince o +
Wales. This il rot an auto
matte title, but one created i.
Throughout history it has been
exclusive to the sovereign's ell

In Chinese Strife

Marking, Nov. 15-(F- Red.
threats to Marking increased to-
day as Communists surged

area.
A mounting breakup of ma

|proaches to the capital was re-
Elected in reports from the war
area.
Neutral reports said Suchow
was isolated. Otherh had a me-
chanized force fighting its way
to the relief of trapped govern
ment troops east of the city.
Communist forces reached
Suhsien, 1875 miles northwest of
Marking. One report said the
town was captured by the Reds.
The railroad, connecting Pu-
kow, across the Yangtze from
Marking, and Suchow, had been
cut in several places, Govern
ment reinforcements moving up
from Marking were reported
stranded in spots along the line.
There were no reports from Su-
chow itself.
Charles Hayese Of Salem,
Mass, pilot of a plane that flew
out rs Catholic missionaries to
Shanghai, said there were signs
Of heavy fighting near the Su-
chow airport, five miles east Of
the city.
On the political front Presi-
dent Chang Kaj-Shek and top
leaders met in Marking to dis
cuss 4 protest to the United Ma
tons against alleged Russian
aid to the Reds. Reliable sources
said no decision was reached but
indicated a possible government
statement later.
Talk of a war cabinet" with
out Chang died down.
In a desperate effort to save
the Suchow situation, the gov
eminent repeatedly had thrown
some Of the weary troops eva
cuated from the Manchurian port
Of Hulatao into the battle. Also,
three government divisions were
landed at Lienyunkang, eastern
terminus Of the Yunghai rail

Secretary Marshall To Give Answer To U.N Leaders,
Appeal For Peaceful Settlement In Berlin Crisis
Big Four Talks
Are Suggested
By Lie, Evatt

Paris, Nov. 15-R-An in
formed source said today Sec
rotary of State Marshall will
answer for President Truman a
United Nations leaders appeal
for Berlin peace.
U. N. Secretary General Try
gve Lie and Herbert v. Evatt Of
Australia, President Of the Gen.
eral Assembly, dispatched let
tiers Saturday to the chief exc
cutives of the big four powers
asking for four power talks to
settle the Berlin crisis.
The letters were sent to Mr..
Truman, Prime Minister STAIN,
Prime Minister Clement Attlee
Of Britain and Premier Henri
Queui1le Of France.
The source said Marshall will
answer the Lie-Evatt peace let
ter as soon as he and the Brit
iJn and French foreign ministers
hold full consultations. Marshall,
British Minister of State hector
Mcneil and French Foreign Sec
rotary Robert Shcuman are ex-
pected to meet tomorrow or at
least exchange their views on
the letter at that time, the source
said.
It was indicated that every
phase of the American-British-
French consultations will be re-
layed to President Truman.
The source said, however, that
Marshall, acting in his capacity
as spokesman for the United
States on foreign affairs, actual
ly will answer the letter.
The United Nations looked to
the American answer for a cue
to tho success or failure Of the
peace appeal.
U. N. circles said the Lie-Evatt
appeal was aimed at the Ameri-
can President in the hope he
would agree to meet the other
three if he felt the moral weight
of the U. N. was behind such a
meeting.
U. N. officials said privately
they expected Stain would
agree quickly to the appeal. Dis
patches from Moscow said for
eign diplomats in the Russian
capital believe Stain will &C.
cept.
The U. N. informants said the
big question Is what reply Mr..
Truman will make to the let
ter.
| Members of the United States
delegation said they expected no
answer from Mr.. Truman for
several days. They said the an
swer, will be given to Secretary
Of State Marshall, who has made
no comment on the appeal.
White House officials at Key
West, Fla, where Mr.. Truman
now is vacationing, had no COM
ment yesterday on the Lie-Evatt
appeal. The latest word here
from White House officials was
that the President preferred try
ing to settle disputes through
the U. N. rather than through in
dependent talks.
