Mao Reported Given Command
of Army To 'Liberute' Asia

TOKYO, July 10 (NANA) Chi
nese Communist Leader Mao TIE
tung has been named commander
in chief of the Southeast Asia
liberation army according to a
report from the Asiatic mainland
to high American circles in Japan.
1t is, of course, difficult to con-
firm such reports, but many from
this source have proven correct
in the past.
Mao, the premier of Red China,
is reported to have been in Mos
COW July 4. At that time he is
reported to have been put in
charge of all forces in Southeast
Asia.
Vice commanders under Mao
are said to be Ho Chi Mini. leader
of the Wet Mini party fighting
the French in Indo- China: Kim
I-Sung, premier of North Korea
and Gen. Lin Piao, who captured
Hainan Island for the Chinese
| Communists.

Board Studies CHARGES
OF Bets in Liquor Store

The Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board today has under considera-
ton charges that Albert Chaser,
proprietor of -Hy's Market, 1851
Eleventh street NV, took num-
bers bets in his store. Chaser has
a license to sell beer in his mar
ket.
Police 1t. B. M. Jefferson and
Pvts. Joseph H. Hunt and Gerald
L. Keyser told the board they ar
rested Chaser after he had ac-
cepted bets on different occasions
from an undercover policeman and
that they found marked money
and numbers slips on him.
CHASER said he was not in the
numbers business and took the
bets from the undercover man
only to pass them on to a col
lector for a numbers concern
He said he told the undercovel
man he did not know whether he
would see the collector or not. but
that if he did, he would place the
bets.

Under this plan, Soviet officers
will handle logistics behind the
lines and Russian advisory group
will handle operations. This
would follow the pattern set by
the Soviets in North Korea.
In the Korean war, Russians
are repeatedly serving down to
company level and are present at
field headquarters. The North
Korean development movements
are Soviet-directed. The Soviets
are admittedly among the worlds
best ground fighters.
A few months ago it was re-
ported that Southeast Asia had
been designated as the Chinese
sphere of influence in the Com
munist expansion movement. Pres
ident Truman's decision of June
f27, including the Philippines and
Indo- China as aspects of the
Korean problem, seems to have
taken the Soviet plan into con-
sideration.
