1t ruled further, THE act of the

This Changing World
Rulers of Red China Call on British
To Negotiate Return of Hong Kong

to explain the status of the nego-
tiations, and then force-by q vote
of confidence if necessary-with-
drawal of the preferred recogni-
ton of the Communist regime.
Request of Big Business.
Strange as it seems, the Labor
government rushed into recog-
milton of the Peiping government
at the pressing request of Brit
aims big business. Banking and
export firms which have been
making handsome profits in China
for the last $50 years pleaded
with Mr.. Bevin to consider their
vital interests rather than politi-
cal and ethical considerations in
dealing with the Moscow puppets
Unable as they are to make good
profits in socialistic Britain, busi-
nessmen are trying to revive their
old trade with the Far East, where
they once reigned supreme.
Since the requests of the bust
ness firms did not conflict with
the ideology of the Labor Party
the British government decided to
recognize the Communist regime
in China about three months ago
The Foreign Office and the old
China hands" were taken back
however. when the Communist
leaders were less than lukewarm
to this offer of recognition.
Because of Brftain's past pres
tige in the Far East, the govern
ment and businessmen believed
that Mao Tze-tung and Chou En-
lai would accept eagerly the ex-
tended hand of British friendship
Instead. both Chinese leaders went
for long stay in Moscow and the
British diplomat assigned to ne
gotiate resumption of relations
was left cooling his heels in Hong
Kong. He could not get a permit
to enter Communist China.
Normally the, British would have
been indignant at the insult by
the Chinese Reds and would have
ordered their diplomat back to
Britain. Eventually the Foreign
Office representative received q
visa to go to Peiping. He was re-
ceived by underlings in the Pei
ping Foreign Office. who trans
mitted to him the conditions under
which China was willing to con-
slider conversations leading to
eventual resumption of normal
relations.

During this parlous period in
American history-perhaps to be
known in later years as the Great
Smear Era-much is being said
concerning the doctrine of guilt
by association. This Is regarded
as poisonous doctrine by most
liberal thinkers, one apt to be
destructive of the American pat
tern of individual rights if fol-
lowed to any important extent.
There are thinkers who do not
share this fear. One such is Sen
ator Joseph Mccarthy of Wis
consin, author of the latest Com
munist scare to engage the coun-
try'S attention. In his view, a
perfectly proper way of proving
that you are a bad person, is to
show that at some time or other
you joined, innocently or other
wise, some organization that con-
tanned some bad persons or had
some bad secret purposes. He has
made it clear that, if permitted
by the Senate Investigating Com
mittee, he intends to push this
theory to the limit, regardless of
how many decent regulations may
be damaged.
Not the First to Use 1t.
Senator Mccarthy didn't invent
the doctrine and he isn't the first
to use it in this country. There
was Representative j. Parnell
Thomas, for example, during the
days when he rode high as chair
man of the Un-American Activi-
ties Committee, the days before
he was sent to prison for offenses
a little more tangible than guilt
by association. But it is peculiar
ly fitting that Senator Mccarthy
should now be attempting to es-
tablish guilt in this manner. For
Senator Mccarthy actually is the
inventor of companion doctrine
the doctrine of innocence by
nom n-association.
This was revealed rather clearly
last year. The Wisconsin State
Supreme Court granted the State
Board of Bar Examiners permis-
sion to file a complaint against
Senator Mccarthy because he had
continued to serve as judge of a
trial court while he was running
for the United States Senate in
1916. This, it was charged, was
contrary to public policy. A man
engaged in a hot political cam
paign, it was argued, should not
at the same time be engaged in
the administration of cases, the
conduct of trials. the handing
down of justice; it wasn't fair to
the litigants and lawyers appear
Ing before him. Not only that.
but it constituted a violation of
the canonS of ethics adopted by
the American Bar Association and
approved by the State Bar Asso-
citation of Wisconsin. Also a
violation of his oath as a member
of the bar.

Lewis Resumes Efforts
To UntangIe Affairs
OF Welfare Fund

John L. Lewis will make new
efforts next week to untangle the
affairs of the long suspended
United Mine Workers welfare and
retirement fund.
Mr.. Lewis, anxious to resume
payment of benefits from the big
fund. conferred secretly yesterday
with Senator Bridges, Republican,
of New Hampshire, who has
served the last two years as neu-
trail trustee for the fund. Neither
one would tell what took place at
the meeting.
Payment of beenfits from the
fund, which now totals nearly
$50 million, were suspended last
September when the trustees be-
gan running out of money. Since
that time the whole thing has
been tied up in court suits and
the contract dispute between Mr..
Lewis and the mine operators.
Two new trustees were named
in the strike-ending soft-coal
contract signed last Sunday. Mr..
Lewis stays on as the miners
representative. Miss Josephine
Roche, longtime friend of Mr..
Lewis who has been serving as
fund director. was named to re-
place Senator Bridges as the
neutral" trustee. The mine op-
orators selected Charles A. Owen
of New York as their representa-
tive.
Operators payments into the
fund were increased under the
new contract to 80 cents a ton
on all coal produced. That will
bring in an estimated $140 million
year.
Senator Bridges, who once re-
ceived $4,000 a year for the job,
has been anxious to retire for
some time. But he has felt that
he should receive a court release
from the responsibility. Miners
and their dependents receive all
sorts of benefits from the fund,
including payments for pensions,
death, medical care, disability and
Decentralization.

The new Chinese Peoples Re-
public has told the British repre-
sentative, with whom it has been
negotiating in Peiping, that it can
not accept Britain's recognition
unless the British support Chinese
Communist entry into the United
Nations and are willing to nego-
tiate the return of Hong Kong to
China.
The first condition could easily
be met by the London government,
since it officially has broken re-
lations with the Nationalist re-
gime. The situation is more diff
cult with respect to Hong Kong,
the preservation of which was one
of the main reasons for Britain's
haste in recognizing Moscow's
newest puppet.
The British administer the
crown colony under a charter
dated April S, 1843. In recent
years the Chinese have disputed
British rights to that territory. At
the Cairo conference in 1943 be-
tween President Roosevelt, Prime
Minister Churchill and Chang
Kai-shek the generalissimo insist
ed on retrocession of Hong Kong
to China, but eventually he yielded
when Mr.. Churchill reminded him
and Mr.. Roosevelt that he did not
become his majesty's first minister
in order to preside over the disso-
luton of the British empire.
Question CLOSED Over.
Thus. while Manchuria and
Formosa were returned" to
China, the question of Hong Kong
was CLOSED over. Chang did not
press the matter, but Mao TIE
tung and Chou En-lai, the Chinese
Communist leaders, pressed it.
They have now informed the
British negotiator through a minor
official of the Peiping Foreign
Office that the question of Hong
Kong must be discussed and set
tied before the Chinese Peoples
Republic can consider the British
offer to resume normal diplomatic
relations. What the Chinese Com
munists now are asking is that
Britain admit that Hong Kong is
mere leasehold, which they will
pledge themselves to evacuate a
number of years hence.
The actual time for the British
departure is left open for negotia-
ton. But the principle that the
crown colony actually is a Chi
nese territory and eventually is to
be returned to China must be set
tied before the Peiping govern
ment, will agree to exchange am
bassadors with Great Britain.
The new situation may result in
reversal of Britain's policy toward
the Chinese Communists. There
is an outside chance that Mr..
Churchill, in agreement with the
government, will raise the ques-
ton in the House of Commons,
require Foreign Secretary Bevin
