S114A1o SeRA &SA SA4 - Avn
ing fight in the United Nations
today in efforts to win some as
surance the non-Communist world
would withhold diplomatic recog-
milton from the Chinese Red
regime.
It was apparent that an over
whelming majority Of United
Nations members were unwilling
to bind themselves to such a
promise.
In effect, the majority recog-
nizes that the military position OF
the crumbling Chinese National
list government apparently is be-
yond recovery.
Nevertheless, Generalissimo
Chang Kai-shek's delegation pre-
pared to press its plea to the
bitter end before the General AS
semblys 59-nation Political Com
mittee.
Vote May Come Today.
The committee may reach a
vote on the Chinese case today
Some delegations said there is q
possibility the final tally will show
the Chinese Nationalist standing
entirely alone.
The committee had two resolu-
lions before it. The one intro
duced by the spokesman for Chi
ang charges the Soviet Union is
giving open support to the Chi
nese Communists in violation OF
the 1915 Russian-Chinese treaty
of friendship and of the princi-
pies of the U. N. Charter.
In addition to the request that
no recognition be granted to Mao
TIE lungs regime in Peiping, the
Nationalist resolution asks the
members of the United Nations to
refrain from giving any military
or economic aid to the Chinese
Communists.
The second resolution was sub
mitted jointly by the United
States, Australia. Mexico. Pakis-
tan and the Philippines. 1t urges
that the Chinese people be given
a free hand to decide their own
future but makes no mention of
the recognition question.
In debate before the committee
yesterday. DR.. T. F. Tsiang, Chi
mas chief delegate to the U. NJ.
said the joint resolution would
be empty and meaningless" unless
it was coupled with the declara-
lions contained in the Chinese
draft. Standing by itself the joint
resolution would be merely "a heap
Of beautiful phrases" he said.
Recognition of the Red regime
in Peiping would help the Chi
nese Communists consolidate their
power, DR.. Tsiang said, adding:
ut would be the single greatest
blow to the cause Of freedom in
China"
DR.. Tsiang bitterly declared the
British are trying to protect their
billion-dollar investment in China
by appeasing the Communists who
now have swallowed up almost
all Chinese territory. Britain is
expected to recognize the Chinese
Communists soon.
DR.. Tsiang said he understood
Britain's desire to protect her in
vestments. but declared those in
vestments will remain insecure so
long as the Chinese Communists
keep their power.
1T is unimaginable that any
freedom-loving people could de-
liberately choose to jeopardize the
whole future of China for the
sum of $1,oo0,o00,OO0," he said.
Vests Peace Plan Adopted.
The United Nations yesterday
adopted a 12-point Western power
declaration for peace and then
rejected Soviet peace plan call
ing the United States and Britain
war plotters.
The 59-nation Assembly voted
So to S for the joint British Uni
ted States resolution outlining IL
essentials for peace.
The voting came after Soviet
Foreign Minister Andrea Y. vi
shinsky shouted a denial of Yugo-
slav charges that the Kremlin is
interfering with Yugoslavia. One
of the listed essentials for peace
calls for keeping hands off other
countries affairs.
The resolution was largely a re-
affirmation of principles already
in the U. N. Charter, but it was re-
garded as a direct slap at the
Communists in the light of the
charges brought against Russia in
the Assembly debate.
Applies to CominfOrm.
Several points apply directly to
acts such as the Cominform S
threats against Premier Marshal
Tito and Russia's alleged direct in
tervention in the Chinese civil
war.
Mr.. Vishinsky was booked to sail
for home today aboard the British
liner Mauritania. But members of
the Russian delegation said last
night that he Cancelled his passage
late yesterday and will remain
until the session is finished about
December 10.
The Soviet Foreign Minister
laid his peace" plan before the
Assembly September %.
His pet project, the keynote of
Russian policy in this Assembly,
was defeated in a series of smash
ing votes. It was move to:
/. Brand the United States and
Britain as leaders in preparation
for a new war.
2. Outlaw atomic weapons.
8. Have Britain, the United
States, China and France, sign a
new peace pact with the Soviet
