Communists in Manchuria, None of these forces give tangible evidence of any disposition to’ withdraw. r Despite their pledge to withdraw

ing their grip on the industrial life of the entire area and have negotiated. contracts with local dealers to feed and billet their troops for the next four months, On Jan, 381, the Chinese government asked Russig to reveal her plans in connection with her promised withdrawal. No answer to this request has been received. The Chinese government today is in the position of éither accepting

nist domination and control of Manchuria or of sacrificing the peace in China arranged with the help of Gen, Marshall, U, 8 ambassador. Vital to China Significantly, the Soviet press which has clamored for removal of U. 8. forces in China has not mentioned Russia's failure to withdraw from Manchuria. The rich industrial sections and the fertile flelds*of Manchuria are as important and vital to China as the Pittsburgh area and the wheatfields of the middle west are to the United States. In its 1ace tories he the hope of China of becoming an industrial nation and in its rich fields China's opportunity to forestall the terrible famines that periodically bring death to thousands.

tion of the “shooting war” between Chinese Communists and Nationalists and the first faint beginnings of real unity in the nation were giving way to despair. Communist Position Many people here believe that for all their gallant struggle, for all their bitter years of sacrifice, the Chinese people once again may have their greater treasure—Manchuria—wrested from them. Interviewed at his headquarters here, Gén. Chou En-Laj, who is second in command of the Chinese Communists, said: “We advocate that they Red armies evacuate Manchuria as soon as possible, “We are in favor of a political settlement of the Manchurian problem, and we recognize the leadership of the Chinese Nationalist government in Manchuria as well as in other sections of China.” While Gen. Chou labeled as “en~

tirely groundless” concern expressed in Nationalist circles that

NAZIS TOOK CZECH CHILDREN, REDS SAY

NUERNBERG, Feb. 18 (U, P.).— The Soviet prosecution at the war crimes trial charged today that German: “racial experts” chose the!

youngest Czech children who sur- | vived the Lidice massacre, ‘gave them new names and sent them to Germany to become Germans. Ninety children were taken from Lidice to a concentration camp at

Last time I saw Mauldin, he was preparing to battle the late Lt. Gen George 8. Patton Jr. Patton had threatened to bar the U. 8. army newspaper, “The Stars and Stripes,’ from circulating in Third army, because he thought Mauldin’s cartoons were depleting troop morale. Now, Bill is battling again, and some* hat along the same lines. He wants to show civilian society as he sees it, in the same, unique and powerful way in which he portrayed the army. ‘I never drew a picture for enter. tainment,” he said. “I never drew just to be funny. There was always an idea. There still is.” ; “But there are some things I've found I have to learn more about before I pop off. I've done a lot of popping off before. I want to be sure now I'm right.” Housing Problem Like many a veteran, Mauldin has run into selfishness and stupidity around the country. It offends him. He draws it. In that sense, he has “popped off” about what confronts the ex-

IN 1945 OPERATING COSTS INCREASED

$842.87 a DAY!

INDIANAPOLIS RAILWAYS

OUR AIM: Good Service for YOU!

At the same time operating costs, not including depreciation and all taxes, continued to climb upward. They jumpéd from a total of $4,798,947.27 in 1944 to $5,106,597.03 in 1945... an increase of $842.87 every day in the year. At present, the picture is even worse for 1946. Passenger traffic n still dropping. The Company is being asked to increase wages by approximately $1,000,000 a year. Equipment, overtaxed during the war emergency, needs to be replaced, and we estimate it will require an expenditure of $3,500,000 in the next three years to modetnize Ind anapolis’ transit service. It is obvious that the present 6%4¢ token rate will make it im to give you the kind of transportation service you want and deserve. It is from 12%% to 28%% lower than that charged by any other comparable city having a self-supporting transportation system. We believe ’ our customers will understand that higher operating costs and decreased revenues require a higher token rate if we are to°bring back A-1 service

to Indianapolis.
