Proposal For Cease-Fire Is Flatly Refused Both Belligerent Sides In Chino In Blunt Rejections TOKYO (INS) — President Eis- ' enhower’s proposal that the United Nations arrange a cease-fire between Nationalist and Communist China was flatly rejected today by both the belligerent sides of the suddenly hot war off the China Coast. Both Taipeh and Peiping were in substantial if rare agreement that the war between them was an “internal'” Chinese matter that could be settled in the end only by’total victory of one side or the other. —* Nationalist vice-premier S. K. Hung spoke for Chiang Kai-Shek when he flatly termed unacceptable the idea of a United Nations cease-fire that would result in “two Chinas” co-existing with each other. The Peking People's Daily, offfcial newspaper of Red China’s Communist party, was equally blunt, in writing down (A c Proposal. The newspaper declared editorially that the “liberation” of Formosa was “entirely China’s domestic affair,” and a Peiping radio broadcast quoted the papers as maintaining: “To liberate Taiwan (Formosa) and the Penghu (Pescadore) islands is entirely China’s domestic affair. t "Exercise of sovereign rights by the Chinese people in their own territory cannot give rise to international tension, nor can it affect peace in the Far East. “The case of Taiwan and Penghu is the same as other Chinese islands." Peiping’s proposal for peace in Asia was simple. It involved outright surrender by the U. S. and Nationalist China of Formosa and all other Nationalist-held territory.

(INS) — The Indiana University bureau of business research predicted today that the Hoosier industrial outlook is "solid” for the first quarter of 1955 with the automobile and steel industries setting the pace.

Retail sales mounted in December, reaching a par with the high sales of 1953 in many regions. The bureau said: “The employment prospects for
