After long negotiations between
Burma, Thailand, Nationalist China
and the United States an attempt
has just been made to evacuate the
Chinese by air, under the guidance
and mediation of the Thai and
United States governments. But
so far only Stalemate has re-
suited. The Chinese Nationalists
offered to repatriate to FormoSa all
Chinese soldiers who wished to
leave.
Originally. there were an esti-
mated 10000 Chinese Nationalist
soldiers in Burma. plus the usual

children and aged relatives Of men
in the army. Some 1000 Chinese
Nationalists responded to the call
for repatriation. In the end only
1,215 soldiers were moved out of
Burma plus 206 of their dependents.
Those who have come out of the
jungle are well-fed, well-clothed
and appear to be firmly behind the
Nationalist government. The sick
among them evidently had suffered
the wounds and illnesses on the
long trip from their jungle strong
hold to the airstrip.
If the appearance Of the first Of
these Chinese is any criterion, they
have left behind over 10000 we'll
fed and well-equipped fighting men.
These men have been able to con-
clude mutually acceptable agree
ments with the fierce tribes Of the
Shan States, and these agreements
are said to have been kept.
The reason for the comparative
prosperity of this tiny army is ap-
parent to those who know this re-
gion. In their present position the
Chinese control the main road from
Yunnan Province in China to Thai
land. They also control all trade

that the Finnish woodworking in
dustry. which produces about 80
per cent of the country's total ex-
ports, was no longer able to compete
successfully on world markets. Due
to high labor costs and obsolete
machinery. which the Firms were
unable to modernize while paying
off their huge reparations debt, pro-
duction became improbable and
factories began to runSinto the red.
Thus, the large cellulose mill at
Kemi in Northern Finland receives
about $1,000 Finnish marks for
ton of cellulose, but has to pay
$4,000 marks for the cost of raw
materials alone.
AS consequence, Finland's trade
with the West has declined alarm
ingly. at the same time as trade
with the East has grown. The re-
suits of the development are already
visible. The number of unemployed,
which last March hit the $1,000
mark, is expected to rise to at
least 100000 before spring. The
decline in exports has also Gre
ated serious shortage of Western
currencies. and it has been necessary
to cancel entirely the modest al
lowances of foreign currencies hith-
erto granted to Finnish travellers.

many of whom fought the Japanese

Recently the Burmese army, to-
falling only 10000 men, sent columns
of soldiers into the Shan States to
oust the unwelcome Chinese Ma
tionaliSts. AS secondary mission,
these army forces were enjoined to
bring the Sullen tribeSmen firmly

In collaboration with the local pop

For its part. the Burmese army
is not trained in and does not un-

even thoroughly sold on its present
government.
The inevitable result was that the
Burmese units were defeated in
several attempts to accomplish their
missions. The final attempt in 1852
was met head on by Maj. Gen. Liu

One Of the many pieces OF unfln-
ished business left over from the
Chinese civil war lies fostering in
the steaming jungles along the
Burma-Red China border. Some
1000 Chinese Nationalist soldiers
have settled in the area, to the
chagrin of the Burmese government,
which has not the strength to pitch
them out.
With United Nations help, 1,215
Chinese Nationalists recently have
been evacuated to Formosa. But the
problem of what to do with the
1000 Chinese Nationalists still in
Burma remains.
Knowing how these Chinese Ma
tionalists came to settle in Burma
and what they are doing there helps
in understanding the problem there
today. Here is the background.
In 1949-50 the Red Chinese
Steamroller squeezed the last fad
ing remnants of the Chinese Ma
tionalist government and its armies
beyond the confines of their country
into neighboring states and islands.
The government. its official fami-
lilies, and the best of its army and
navy fled to the island bastion of
Formosa. Thousands of civilian
refugees and splinter army groups
in civilian dress filtered into British
held Honk Kong. And the last rem
nant of the Nationalist army in the
southwest, under the leadership of
the Governor of Yunnan province,
Gen. Ii Mi. moved across the Bur-
mese border into the Shan States of
North Burma.

ROME.-During Italy's election
campaign last spring, an Italian
journalist was assigned to do an
article on q candidate from Pied
mont, who also happened to be the
nations Budget Minister.
The journalist found the job Diff
ficult, and finally started. his article
this way:
Nov that I am prepared to write
something about him, I ask myself
if 1t is possible to interest the man
in the street in the figure Of the
Hon. Giuseppe Pella."
Any reporter here would have less
trouble today. It has been quite
possible to interest the Italian man
in the street in Giuseppe Pella almost
every day since August "a. That
was the date on which Italy's long
cabinet crisis was ended when the
Chamber of Deputies gave a vote of
confidence to a new government in
which Signor Pella would be Prime
Minister and Foreign Minister, as
well as Budget Minister.
Pella's early popularity with Par
Lament and country has been q
major phenomenon Of European
politics this fall. His political honey
moon-which may come to q quick,
dismal end If the Trieste question
is not settled to Italy's satisfaction
is reminiscent in some respects of
the brief but genuine honeymoon
accorded Harry s. Truman when he
took over the presidency on the
death of Franklin D. Roosevelt in
April, 1945.
OF course, Pella's predecessor, AL
eide de Gasperi, Is still very much
alive, but many Italians believe he
is dead politically. And the realiza-
ton of that possibility, after De
Gasperi had been struck down by

for exchange Of goods during the
coming year. The negotiations,
which started in Moscow in Sep
tember, have been carried out con-
f1dentially without much light being
shed on them until the ousted Prime
Minister, Kekkonen. made a sensa-
tional disclosure on November 18.
He announced he had conducted
secret talks with the Soviet envoy
to Finland, Minister v. z. Lebedev,
concerning possible Soviet trade
concessions to Finland. Among
these promised concessions, about
which Mr.. Tuomioja's new cabinet
already has contacted Moscow, were
the payment Of 10 to IS per cent
Of Finland's exports to Russia in
hard currencies and the granting
of a substantial loan to Finland.
If the Soviet offer is sincerely
meant, and not only intended as a
gesture to bolster the sagging po-
ltical prestige of Mr.. Kekkonen,
who is persona grata in Moscow, it
will probably be Incorporated in
the new FinniSh-Soviet trade agree
ment. which the Films expect to be
signed in the near future.
In his discussions with Mr.. Kek-
konen, Soviet Minister Lebedev also
stated that the Soviet Union was
willing to start negotiations with
Finland for the granting of transit

themselves. either by direct buying
and selling of Yunnan products in
collaboration with the huge Chinese
population of Thailand, or by levy
ing tribute from merchants using
this road.
Yunnan Province is one of the
worlds largest sources of opium.
The Nationalist government, vio-
lently opposed to the opium trade
and the use of opium or its deriva-
tiveS, was never successful in sup
pressing the cultivation of the
opium poppy in Yunnan, although it
made many valiant attempts. This
opium is an easily transported and
valuable commodity. commanding
high prices all over the Far East.
It is a readymade source Of pros
perity for those situated as the Chi
nese "lost armies" are placed. They
can easily trade, their opium for
Western products in the open mar
ket places Of Bangkok.
Two Roids Mode
Since his enforced exile from
Yunnan, Gen. Ii Mi has made two
strong raids into his old home
province. On each occasion, ac-
cording to the Red Chinese press,
he has been forced back in "ignom-
inous defeat" It seems strange
that he stayed in Yunnan, on each
occasion, through the harvest season
of the opium poppy.
The Chinese Nationalists, having
made their offer to repatriate those
Of their countrymen willing to leave,
now are washing their hands Of the
whole deal. In other words, it's
Burma's problem as far as the For
mosa government is concerned.
The U. N. is giving Burma moral
support-another resolution urging
disarmament of Gen. Ii Mis- troops
was passed Friday-but it looks like
the Chinese Nationalists will stay
where they are until Burma can
gather enough strength to throw
them out.

PeIIos Rise in oy Called TyPoo American Success Story

the Chamber in his attempt to form
a government after the June 7 elec-
tionS, came as q shock to many
Italians, as well as to the rest Of
the world.
De Gosperi Was Symbol
De Gasperi had become part of
Europe's political landscape. The
Western world had come to expect
stable government from Italy and
that stability was synonymous with
the man who had been Premier for
eight critical postwar years. It was
felt that no matter how often the
ministerial cards were shuf1ed in
France, De Gasperi would be Premier
and all would be reasonably well
with Italy.
The shock of De Gasperi's exit
was not eaSed when the first man
who attempted to succeed him
former Vice Premier Attilio Pic
mioni-failed even to get to the
point of asking the Chamber to
confirm his cabinet.
The fact, then, that Pella not only
got comfortable majority, but
acted as man who knew what he
was doing-and intended to go on
doing it for while-reaSSured anx-
ious Italians that their republic
could survive the defeat of one
leader.
Another factor in Pella's popu-
larity undoubtedly is that the coun-
try was weary of political strife
and polemics after the election and
the long parliamentary crisis that
followed. Pella came in with none
of the political liabilities De Gas
peri inevitably had accumulated in
eight years. He spoke calmly and
moderately.
Still another advantage with
which Pella began was that he, him
