tremendous undertaking, most
skillfully carried out. and it was
that undertaking. which permitted
the Chinese government to really
get back into areas of China which
it would have had the utmost diff
f1culty in even getting into with
lout that colossal effort.
BY the end of '46 we had re-
moved 3 million japanese, just a
few thousand under 3 million,
from China to Japan-one of the
great mass movements of people.
After the agreements between
the Chinese Nationalists and the
Chinese Communists that I have
spoken of in 1945, October II, l945,
armed clashes broke out again be-
tween the two parties, and both
the government authorities, the
Chinese government authorities
and the American Government
authorities, were gravely disturbed
that civil war would break out.
Peace Was Major Objective.
If that happened, then the
whole chance of dealing with any
Iof the problems which you and ]
have been discussing this morn
ing would disappear.
If there was civil war going on
in China, fighting between the
government forces and the Com
munist forces, all possibility of
removing the Japanese either dis
appeared or was gravely dirnin-
IiShed.
The possibility of occupying
North China became much dim
imer; the possibility of moving
into Manchuria became non-ex-
Iistent: and the possibility of really
getting any reforms in South
China or any other part of China
would be greatly diminished. So,
the peace became a major objec-
tive of both the Chinese govern
ment and the United States Gov
ernment in it's efforts to help
the Chinese government.
1t was in that situation that
Gen. Marshall was asked by the
President to go to China at the
end of 1945.

I am hoping that when we get
this first report on the Goth OF
June we will see that it has al
ready been put into. effect.
Senator Stennis-Well, after it
is put into effect, then, it would
take months before there would
be any real results felt, isn't that
correct?
Secretary Acheson-We pointed
out. I think, in prior testimony
Senator Stennis, that some of the
nations have already taken rather
broad action along these lines.
Therefore. that has already had
its effect.
AS other nations begin to fol-
low that ard put in these restric-
tions, they will take effect and
will be felt. depending on the
item, either Immediately, or not
so Immediately. ..
Senator Stennis-. My point
is that at best. it would take some
considerable months for this eco
nomic blockade to bring results,
tangible results of a very appre-
Iciable quantity. and that some
thing else ought to be considered
in the meantime.
1t took six months or more to
get the resolution passed, and we
are going to have to wait now sew
erR1 months before it is felt, if it
is put into full effect, and then
that may not be sufficient; it
seems to me like there should be
some activity on behalf of the
United States with reference to
some other measure along the
same line in which, I understand
the next step is a naval block
ade.
Secretary Acheson-I think In
the respect in which you are now
questioning me there is no differ
ence in the time when a stoppage
|of imports is felt, whether that
Istoppage is brought about by the
action Of the nation in not ship
ping it or by the action of a navy
in stopping it outside territorial
waters. In other words, the ma
terial is not arriving.
In either case, it may take some
time for that stoppage to affect
the whole economic structure of
the country concerned. And
think this is true with regard to
China-that measures of an eco
nomic character will not be i'm
mediately felt. They will take
some time to have their effect.
Senator Stennis-But you are
very hopeful of the success of this
economic blockade, are you not?
Secretary Acheson-Yes, sir, I
am.

Saw
Peril in Civil War

After Gen. Marshall returned ir
the summer of 1947, the President
on the recommendation of Gen
Marshall, sent Gen. Wedemeyer tt
China on a fact finding mission
Gen. Wedemeyer, before he left
stressed again, as he had in 1945
the great Importance and the
necessity for reform
Gen. Wedemeyer went to China
and returned. He made recon-
mendations, which are printed in
the White Paper. in which he
recommended assistance of eco
nomic and military equipment for
5-year period. which would re-
quire Congressional authorization
Although his actual recommends
tions do not call for a grant of
military aid, it Is possible to read
that in. He does talk about the
desirability of that.
However, Gen. Wedemeyer rec
ognized the desirability and i'm
portance of avoiding direct United
States involvement in the civil wal
in China by stating:
Although advice indicated
above"-that is, technical military
Iadvice-"does provide advice in
directly to tactical force, it should
be carried on outside operational
areas to prevent the criticism that
American personnel are actively
engaged in fratricidal war
fare"
The Secretary of State, Gen
Marshall. then had prepared, and
with the approval of the President
sent to Congress a recommends
ton for aid to China. He made
before the Foreign Relations Com
mittee very frank statement of
the problems facing the United
States Government in considering
aid to China.
Marshall Also Gave Warming.
He made it clear that there
were steps which had to be taken
and could only be taken by the
Chinese government, which were
essential to meet the Communist
threat. s
And, he took the position

The Nome School Board an- nounces that two more teachers are scheduled to arrive this week. One vacancy still remains, as the fourth grade is so large that it will be necessary to divide it into two classes.
 Mrs. Helen Bockman, who left recently for Fairbanks for tn e Land Office, will return this week as teacher. She is well qualified, having taught in the Nome school for many years. Herbert Williams will arrive from Portland Friday.

Compulsory School Attendance

Oliver c. Boe, Superintendent of the Nome Public School, an nounced today that according to the law: '
 "All children of sound mind who live within miles of the school and are between the ages of 2 to 16 must attend school until the age of Is is reached or until eighth grade has been com pleted. Absence from school is termed a violation of this section.
 "The responsibility for such violation falls on the PARENT or any other person having posses sion or control of the child. The violation is classified as mis- demeanor, the parent being liable to fine or imprisonment in the Federal jail"
 MT. Boe said it is the duty of the superintendent to report all such violations to the proper au- thorities.
 He further stated: "I find it necessary to bring these matters before the public because there are number of children in Nome, between the ages stated, who are not attending school regularly, if at all. trust that no drastic action will be necessary, but I do re- quest that all parents cooperate with me by seeing to it that their children are in school every day, unless ill."
 The amount of money the school gets from the Territory is based on enrolment, which gives us an- other reason for wanting good at- tendance. The poorer the enroll ment, the higher local taxes will be. So it is to the advantage of all that the children of Nome at tend school regularly.
