Sino-American Board
Will Offer Hearings 10
7 Relieved by Chang

1t. Gen. p. T. Now and Col
HSiang Wei-hsian, who We're re-
lieved Of duty with the Chinese
Air Force procurement Office here
will be offered a hearing before an
American-Chinese board and will
demanad that sessions be open
1t was learned last night. -
The inquiry. if made. will in
vestigate complaints that the two
former Nationalist Chinese Off
Gals failed to account for $19.-
100000 of funds. The money had
been allocated to equip and train
Nationalist armed forces.
Action Spurred by Morse.
The reported plan for a joint
American-Chinese inquiry board
believed to be without prece-
dent-may have resulted in part
from demands in Congress, prin-
cipally by Senator Morse, Repub-
lican, of Oregon. for a Senate in
quiry into this case as well as pos
sible misuse of American funds.
Attorneys for the Chinese Air
Force here have said that the
funds in question were Chinese
and not monies turned over by
the United States to the National
lists.
The Senate Preparedness Sub
committee. headed by Senator
johnson, Democrat, of Texas, has
investigated the case. It was
learned also that the FBI and
military intelligence oficials also
have looked into the matter in
view Of charges by Col. Hsians
that American businessmen were
involved in what he described as
corruption.
Has Not Been Notified.
Gen. Now said he has received
no official notice. that such a
board will be appointed. But he
disclosed that he has heard the
Chinese Embassy may set up a
board OF three Americans and
three Chinese here this month.
He did not indicate whether the
board would be composed of mill
ta1y officers or civilians.
II have heard talk of that and
have let it be known that would
insist that attorneys and news
paper reporters should be permit
ted to attend all sessions" he said.
i would not agree unless every
thing was out in the open"
Chinese Embassy officials could
not be reached last night for COM
ment.
Gen. Now and his assistant
Col. HSiang, were relieved of duty
August 81. They declared that
they tried to stop "middleman
graft" in Chinese Air Forces con-
tracts. They have denied any
fund mishandling.
Orders Defied.
They have defied orders by
Chang Kai-shek to return to
Formosa. Gen. Chou Chi-jeu
chief Of the joint general staff and
commander of the Nationalist air
force in Formosa, requested that
q special military court be set
up there to look into the case.
Gen. Now, following his sus-
pension here. demanded in turn
that Gen. Chou be tried on charges
OF corruption. Gen. Chou has been
quoted in Formosa as saying he
is ready to answer any such
charges. A Nationalist Govern.
ment statement said Gen. Now
and his assistant would be given
q fair trial and that their ex-I
pressed fears of execution were

Board unanimously approved this
program and ordered its immedi-

Keystone to the civil rights
program will be a series of state

Subjects for discussion at these
area meetings will be the whole

those areas.
Expressing it's firm belief that
Fair Employment Practices legis-

instructed the State CLIO. office
to lend all possible assistance to

While it has no intention Of re-

said it felt local ordinances were

The Board also suggested to it's

TEHERAN, Iran, Aug. T.
Britain's chief oil negotiator,
Richard Stokes. flew to Abadan
today to inspect personally condi-
tions at the shutdown refinery.
President Truman's trouble
shooter, w. Averell Hartman, fol-
lowed in another plane which
landed at Abadan eight minutes
later.
The British had demanded as
suranceS that Iran would refrain
from petty annoyances against
British employees at Abadan-site
of the worlds largest refinery
before opening talks.
Mossa Sarabandy. governor gen.
eral of the oil-producing province

Meanwhile, talks over national

Co.'S vast properties-the Abadan

That discrimination should be
cured by applying to a Nation

Southern, Western trunk-line and
Southwestern rate territories"
The commissions interim ad-

the North and East and lowering
them in the South led to litigation
that reached the Supreme Court.
The tribunal in 1947 held that the
ICES findings as to unjust dis
elimination were "abundantly sus-

The talks opened in a friendly

the two sides appeared so far

others directly interested could
attack or otherwise comment on
the proposed classifications.
"Said classification, when so
published and filed, will be sub
ject to possible investigation and
suspension, in whole or in part,
upon the commissions own mo-
tion," the ICC explained.
Agency officials said they could
not estimate how long an ICC
study might require. They noted,
however, that even If the agency
disapproved some items or parts
of the suggested classification the
rest could be approvedand go into
effect.
While not challenging the good

1t was dissatisfied that six years
have passed without completion
of such classification as directed
in the 1945 order.

the ICC stated. They should

complete, publish. file and put in
force the just and reasonable uni
form classification of freight
which we have found is neces-
sary to clear away unjust and
undue preferences and prejudices.

Evening star., 1951-08-07

The South's long pull to put its
railroad freight rates on a level
with the industrial North and
East still is many months from
the finish, Interstate Commerce
Commission and railway experts
said today in connection with new
orders from the ICC.
But despite possible further dis
puteS over a uniform classifica-
ton which ICC last week ordered
railroads to submit within four
months, officials said the track
toward a final solution is clearer
than at any time in four years.
They as well as some railroad
spokesman, expect additional OBJ
stacles but little likelihood of
backtracking that would throw
the whole issue again into the
courts. A Supreme Court ruling
in 1947. they explained. is still the
last basic word on the freight rate
competitive question.
There is no fine print and no
sleeper in the orders we an
nounced last week" an ICC off,
cial declared. "Those orders were
more than merely further steps.
They came pretty close to being
final steps. We think we have
pretty well ironed out most of the
long standing difficulties and that
these orders will lead to complete
compliance with a major decision
we made in 1945."
Upheld by Supreme Court.
The decision. often described as
the most important in ICC his
tory, ordered that uniform class
rates-those applying mainly to
Manufactured goods - be estab-
lished for the entire territory east
Of the Rockies.
1t was a major victory, but not
a final one, for the South, which
had contended that lower rates
allowed for such freight ship
ments in the East Disseminated
against the South. Then. in 1947,
a 7-2 ruling by the Supreme Court
upheld the ICC action in raising
class rates 10 per cent in the
North and East and lowering
them 10 per cent in the South in
accordance with the agency's
1945 decision.
Opinions issued last week by
1CC reaffirmed the agency's 1945
finding that freight rates should
be the same throughout territory
east of the Rocky Mountains.
