The closeness Of the new head

Aid Halted for . Time.
China has been getting some
American military aid-mainly in
the form of planes and aircraft parts
although this assistance was
halted for a time on Gen. Marshalls
order.
A number OF Republican law
makers have insisted that it is not
enough-that what China needs is
guns and bullets for her ground
soldiers.
Gen. Macarthur did not specify
types, but he said shipments of sur
plus American military supplies
have been resumed to China. And
he added:
Additional material support
should be measured in equitable re-
lation to such global aid as may be
determined upon in the orienta-
ton of American policy, without un-
derrating the strategic Importance
