Addresses Political Committee.
Without the Yalta agreement, "
DR.. Tsiang said, "the whole his
tory of China and Korea in the
postwar period would have been
different and happier"
The Chinese representative made
his declaration in a speech before
the 60-nation U. N. Political Com
|mittee.
He denounced Russia for al
legged violation of the Chinese
Russian treaty of friendship,
signed by the Chang government
in 1945 as a result of the Yalta
agreement. ....
DR.. Tsiang submitted a resolu-
tion calling on the U. N. to
determine formally that "the
III. s. S. R., in her relations with
China since the surrender of
Japan, has violated" the Chinese
Soviet pact.
PrepOSterOus,' MaIik Says.
DR.. Tsiang appealed to the U. N.
for some measure of moral sup
port and judgment"
Soviet Delegate Jacob Malik,
who pretended not to be listening
to Tsiang's speech, replied at
once.
Mr.. Malik said charges Of Soviet
lexpansionist aims in China were
s'prep posterous" and asked the
Political Committee To throw out
the whole complaint.
He said Russia couldn't violate
her 1945 treaty with the Chang
government because that treaty
had been revoked by the new
Communist government of China.
Mr.. Malik, referring to Tsiang's s
remarks about the Yalta agree
ment, said Secretary of State
Acheson told the Senate during
the Macarthur hearings that Rus
Isiap participation in the war
lagainst Japan saved a million
American lives.
Recalls ROOsevelt's Role.
When Mr.. Malik finished, the
debate was adjourned until Mon
day.
In a $4,000 word speech DR..
Tsiang declared his government
had yielded to the pressure of the
United States in accepting the
substance Of the Yalta agree
iment."
"The part played by President
Roosevelt at Yalta is hard to ex-
plain or justify" DR.. Tsiang said
Nevertheless, I would like to say
lat once that the wartime Presi-
dent was never at any moment
of his life actuated by any ill-will
toward my country. His great
friendship for China is well known
Ito the Chinese people and gladly
acknowledged by them in spite
Iof Yalta."
He said President Roosevelt was
motivated by both hopes and fears
in signing the Yalta pact but that
Ihindsight had proved him wrong
In both respects.
Speedy End of War Cited.
President Roosevelt, DR.. Tsiang
said, had believed the war with
Japan might cost many American
lives without Russia's aid but ac-
tually it ended only five days after
Russia entered the conflict. The
American President had hoped
Russia might cooperate with the
Western World in insuring long
period of world peace and pros
Iperity. This. too, was a mistake,
he said.
The major part Of DR.. Tsiang's
speech was a documented account
Iof Russia's expansion in China
and the Far East, together with
la warning there probably is more
Communist action to come.
He said the Communists decided
last october. at their Peiping con-
ference, to make Wet Nam and
Burma "centers for a military
struggle in the immediate future. .
