Recognition of Red China

While not unexpected, Moscow's diplo-
matte recognition of the new Communist
Peoples Republic of China poses some
difficult questions both for the Western
Powers and for the United Nations. The
problem acquires added urgency by the
Chinese Communists bid for general rec
'ognition by foreign countries.
The Soviet Foreign Office based it's deci-
ssion on the practical grounds that the
sCommunist regime had come to exercise
effective control over most of China
whereas the Nationalist regime, having
sshrunk to mere provincial government"
could no longer maintain diplomatic
relations with foreign states on behalf of
China" It therefore broke relations with
the Nationalist Government, presumably
scrapping likewise the treaty of friendship
and alliance signed by Stain and Premier
I: v. Soong at Moscow in August, 1945.
These simultaneous actions by the Soviet
,and Chinese Red Governments were un-
sdoubtedly concerted. The Chinese pro-
,nouncement of its new constitutional
.status, made only the day before at the
tRed capital, Peiping, was attended by a
distinguished delegation of Soviet person.
falities on hand for the OCCASION And its
declaration of policy pledges closest rela-
tions with the entire Soviet bloc.
The non,C Communist world is thus con-
sfronted with a situation which, though
obviously unwelcome, demands quick deci-
.sions on how 1t should be handled. The
idilemma is not rendered more palatable
by the tremendous play given Moscow's
recognition of Red China in the Soviet
press. That leading Russian political
authority, Eugene Tarle, halls it as one Of
the two "stupendous events" of the year
the other being the world failure Of the
United States calculations upon atomic
monopoly" Other Soviet writer's and
editors boast exultantly of its effects
upon the rest of Asia and its weakening
of the general front of imperialism"
Nevertheless, from a purely factual
viewpoint, Moscow's action is in line with
.current realities, while Red China's bid
for diplomatic recognition finds favorable
reactions among British interests in China
which hope to salvage their investments
and commercial standing by some eco
nomic understanding with the Peoples
Republic. It should certainly speed up our
State Department in its re-evaluation Of
tour Far Eastern policy.
Moscows action is especially embar-
!rassing for the United Nations. The
sAssembly has admitted to its agenda a
discussion of the charges filed against
ISoviet Russia by the Chinese Nationalist
Government, which is legally a member
sof the U. N. in good standing, is still
srecognized by virtually all members except
sSoviet Russia, and occupies a permanent
.seat on the Security Council. Moscow will
undoubtedly challenge this status and
.will presumably demand transfer to, the
.People's Republic. There is apparently no

Writer Reiterates Stand
For Courteous Law Enforcement
To the Editor of The Star:

The writer agrees with Hayward E. Storey
that ridiculing policemen in the perform
ance of their duties is a sorry business, but
the undersigned pleads mot guilty to the
charge. II Mr. Storey will reread my COM
plant against the mounted member of the
park police. he will observe that it was not
against the regulations or against their
being enforced, but it was against the man
ner of their enforcement The complaint
concerned the brusque manner of the Of
flcer and his enforcement of rules in the
case of one group of people, while nearby
another group completed the crossing within

effort on his part to turn them back.

Complaints About Bus Music Prompt
Listing of Transit Charms

AlStlHS OF transit CnaFmS
TO the Editor Of The Star:
I read with interest the letters sent by
people who complain about different things
mostly music on the buses and streetcars.
I'm one Of those fortunate persons who
can listen or not as the case may be. People
interest me and I amuse myself looking
about and wondering what their lives are
like. their troubles and pleasures.
Conversations on bus and streetcar differ
widely with the time of day. Early morning
passengers are very quiet.
There is so much of interest to see from
the windows. The little dog waiting Oh the
street until he can safely cross or the old
man with cane whose, steps are slow and
uncertain. The curtains at windows and
the flower gardens tell their story of the
people who live there. The music and news
on the radio can be interesting to blind
people or those who haven't heard their
own radio at home. It seems so useless
to complain when there is so much else to
occupy ones time.
Say prayer for the family of the person
whose funeral is being conducted in the
church you have just passed, or say prayer
for the safety Of the passengers riding with
you. The woman who complains loudest
about noise on the bus may have children
who play outside neighbor's window and
make so much noise much-needed nap
cannot be had, or run over the lawns and
otherwise make themselves nuisance.
This letter is poor expression of my
feelings and may not be of interest to any
one. but feel better for having added a
little praise for the music on bus and street.

letter from Duncan Bureoyne. printed
in the Star Saturday, Octobek l. stated that
''The clear intent of the Bill Of Rights is to
prevent favoring one denomination over
another" I don't think Mr.. Burgoyne has
ever read the Bill Of Rights. and If he has
he is trying to interpret 1t to fit his own
needs. Allow me to quote the Constitution,
and the First Amendment, which is the point
in question. Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment Of religion. or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof: ="
That goes beyond the prohibition against
favoring one denomination over another.
That means that Congress shall have moth
ing to do with any religious denomination
whatsoever. It cannot show favor to one over
another, because it cannot show favor to
any. Mr.. Burgoyne is in favor Of Federal aid

Cod Fish Experiment Seen
Aid to Far North Explorers

DETROIT. - Future Antarctic
and Arctic expeditions may bene-
fit from experiments in which cod
fish will get heat stroke.
The fish are Arctic cod which
thrive in the icy waters of the far
north. They are going to be
dropped. by DR.. John Field Of
Stanford university. into waters
comparable in temperature to those
of the Pacific ocean off the Cali
fornia coast.
Human swimmers may SILVER
in these waters on a July day, but
to the cod they are hot water. AL
though he expects the cod to die,
DR.. Field has reason to believe
they might survive if they could be
adapted to the higher water tenn
p%eratures by slow degrees. He will
try this in later experiments.
DR.. Fields experiments are be-
ing carried on at Point Barrow,
Alaska. under a contract with the
U. S. office Of naval research which
is interested in the mechanisms by
which animals and fish adapt them
selves to extremes of heat and
cold. He reported some of them at
a meeting here of the federation Of
American societies for experiment
tai biology.
Arctic cod, he found, can live in
waters as cold as three degrees
below freezing because their me-
tabolism, or rate of bodily chemi-
cal reactions, hold up well at low
temperatures.
