AS an added improvement and safe

countries. She is waging a desper-
ate war against Communists, who
are supported by Moscow with
money, almost unlimited war ma
terials and many military in
structors.
China Equally Important.
From the point Of view Of national
defense China is of equal Importance
with the Mediterranean Basin. This
is recognized by all Of our top MILL
tary strategists, who are not moved
by personal prejudices or ideo-
logical considerations. Their views
have been set forth in comprehen-
sive reports to President Truman
on several occasions.
In spite of what should appear
to every one as a clear-cut need,
the special message to Congress
from the White House does not
mention any kind of military help
for the American organized divi-
sions of the Chinese government.
Since May, 1916, when the State
Department ordered no further war
material sent to China, Generals
simo Chang Kai-shek-as well as
a large number Of top-ranking
American military men-has been
urging the Government to send at
least the minimum necessary mill
tary supplies to the Chinese, whose
armies are provided with American
guns, but lack ammunition. This
is the grave difficulty confronting
the divisions which are defending
Mukden.
While the European nations still
have a chance to avert political
collapse II they can carry out
economic reconstruction, China &C
tually is in serious shooting war
and above all else needs the means
to continue the fight.
May Aid Moochers.
To supply China with $50, 900, 900
worth of consumer goods may help
fill the pockets of some of the
moochers in the Chinese govern
ment, but it will not keep China
free nor strengthen our national
defense.
Thus, a number of Senators and
Representatives, who have been
pressing the administration to pre-
sent a comprehensive aid-to-C China
program, are disappointed in the
White House message, which they
consider impractical. They feel that
economic help to a country which
lacks the means to resist aggression
can be of no use and means only a
useless expenditure of the taxpayers
money.

man-on advice of the State De-
partment-proposed that $510,0o0,-
900 be spent for consumer goods
and $60,000,000 for reconstruction
projects to help restore transporta-
ton facilities, etc. Not single
dollar was earmarked for war ma
terials, which China needs today
more desperately than anything else
War materials were left out, it is
said, because the Marshall Plan for
Europe provides large sums for eco
nomic reconstruction as the best
means of stemming the Communist
avalanche. Our diplomats believe
firmly that If hardships among the
populations across the Atlantic can
be relieved and people put back to
work, they will not follow Commu-
mist agitators.
Arms Sent to Greece.
This may or may not be true
Except for Greece, Europe is in the
grip of only a cold war. Greece
which Is the target of attack of the
Moscow sponsored guerrillas, has
received since last year about $780,
100000 worth Of military equipment
and Is expected to be granted an
other substantial amount to provide
her armies with the means to resist
Communist aggression.
Even Italy, which is covered by
the Truman doctrine, will receive
military supplies from this country
If she should become the target for
the Communists after the April 1a
elections.
China is In far worse spot than
either of those Southern European
