KnowIand Plans 10 Ask
Thorough Debate on
U. 5. Policy in Asia
By the Assoeiotsd Press

FAIRFIELD, Calf. Dec. g.
Senator Knowland, Republican. of
California, wants something done
about American foreign policy in
Asia.
He wants thorough debate on
the Western Pacific when Con-
gress reconvenes January 8, he
said on his return here with Mrs.
Knowland from a tour of the
) Orient.
The State Department, Senator
Knowland declared. has been
giving aid and comfort" to the
Chinese Communists.
This policy Is aiding Russia and
has been harmful to the peace Of
the world, he asserted.
Senator Lists Grievances.
Senator Knowland listed these
grievances:
|. The case of the American
consul general and his staff In
Mukden.
THE Angus Ward case is only
one among many. To get him and
his staff out of Mukden we are
paying extortion money. The Reds
call it back pay and severance pay
for consular employees. but it's still
extortion."
2. Two American servicemenI
have been held by the Chinese
Communists near Tsingtao since
October 19, 1948. They are Will
liam c. Smith, a chief electricians
mate from Long Beach. Calf, and
Elmer c. Bender, Marine SER
geant from Cincinnati.
3. The State Department is
Withdrawing American consulates
from Nationalist China and leav-
ing four consulates in red-held
territories.
The Senator charged our accept
ing these-and other-instances
is causing us to 'lose face" in the
Orient.
He said he would not call for
new legislation on aid to Nation
alist China as that already on the
books can help a great DEAL"
Program Recommended.
He added he favors:
/. Unfreezing $94 900 in un-
spent ECA funds for China.
2. Using the $75.000.000 allo-
Gated to President Truman for use
in the China area by the recent
arms implementation program.
3. Supervised aid to China like
that extended to Greece two years
ago.
4. No action against Nationalist
warships firing on American YES
sells along the China coast.
THE Nationalists are fighting
with their backs to the wall and
have a right as the legal govern
ment of China to close their ports
to blockade runners"
S. No recognition to Red China
and no trade with the Communists
at this time.
"Our historic policy is to sup
port a Chinese government that
is free and independent. Tenn
porary business profits should not
be allowed to interfere with sound
national policy"
