FRANKFURT. Germany, Oct. 9.
Andre Francois-Poncet. French
high commissioner in Germany,
warned today that If West Ger

This newborn army should be
neither trained nor commanded
by the old type Of generals who
are raising their heads again and
conspiring together" Mr.. Fran
cois-Poncet told a meeting OF
United, States High Commission
resident officers.
He insisted that the new COM
mand must be by younger gen.
erals who are entirely devoted to
the present regime and whose out
look Is at once sincerely demo-
cratic and liberal"
'But obviously. to bring about
a Transformation in the present
military spirit in Germany
spirit which may all too readily
flare up again in the future-is
a task which cannot be accom-
plished within the space Of a few
months" he added.
Mr.. Francois-Poncet conceded
that the French government Is
holding back on the issue of re-
arming the Germans as a part
of European defense. He in.
dorsed as "the lesser of two risks

greater freedom to occupied West

Knowland of California is de-
handing that those in the State
Department responsible for our
China policy be made to resign.
And chances that America will
recognize the Chinese Reds seem
further off than ever.
All of which lends substance to
the theory that the Chinese Com
munists don't give a boot wheth-
'er we recognize them or not, 1t
may be recalled that the British
government practically fell flat
on its face in hurrying to recog-
nize the Chinese Reds, and that
the Peiping government, although
accepting British recognition,
treated the London overtures
with cool disdain.
This, despite the fact that China
desperately needs trade with the
west if she is ever to get back on
her feet after half a century OF
warfare.
