government is making public its own report to Gen, Wedemeyer.

This Nanking statement implies

churia in its belated war with Japan helped set the stage for China's civil war. en es eacnim ¥

Props in that stage-setting were arms, ammunition and supplies taken from millions of Japanese and 330,000 puppet troops in Manchuria following VJ-Day, * In the Chinese-Soviet treaty, Russia recognized only the central government and its troops, but it was impossible for Nanking to disarm the Japanese and puppets in Man-! churia. New Factor Cited “The infiltration of Chinese Communists into Manchuria during and following Saviet occupation constituted a new factor in the Commuhist impasse after VJ-Day,” said the long note to Gen. Wedemeyer,

“Armed opposition of the Communists was the greatest single destructive force against all efforts of the government in carrying out rehabilitation and in Yestoring law and order, particularly in areas formerly held by the Japanese.” The statement did not accuse the Boviets of arming the Communists, but it said the government's “inability” to disarm the Japanese and puppets in Manchuria led Chinese Communists to adopt a challenging stand.
