In Canton, I photographed a window display showing Generalissimo Chaing Kai-shek, portrayed as old-and bedraggled, trying to board a battered "United States warship" in the face of a vast mainland invasion. It was gone when I returned to the city a few week's later.

Reminders Occasional Propaganda, which until the start of the Geneva talks filled every newspaper and billboard in China, now has died down to an occasional reminder that "China is determined to liberate Taiwan." Newspapers still contain, articles on why China should liberate Formosa because, they say, "Formosa is China's." Tliese hewspape'r reports, however, are not nearly so out of Shanghai's 6,000,000 population. If this average applied to the rest of China, the Communist army would have increased by one million within a few months. frequent as they once were. Indoctrination lessons in Red China have turned more and more to internal subjects instead of fill- Ing school children and workers with "hatred- for traitor Chaing." I asked both Chinese and Europeans in Canton, Peiping, Hankow and Shanghai for locations of ''Liberate Taiwan" posters so I could photograph them. The only one I could find were pie "disappearing" display in Canton and a large map of Formosa In a Peiping park.

Many Rumors Heard Rumors, sweeping China a. few months ago, that negotiations with Chiang might settle the Formosa question, are still discussed and revived among the Europeans in China. Some rumors even said that Chaing was coming back to retire to an old home near Shanghai, while Mme. Chaing was to go off to America. Old Shanghai hands laughed off the idea that Cockney Morris "two- gun" Cohen, former bodyguard of Dr.

Sun Yat-sen, had come to China as Chaing's peace-seeking envoy. Cohen toured China in January and February as the guest of the Communist. But general opinion among Europeans who knew him in the old days and met him again was that no one would make the colorful 67-year-old roughneck an envoy. Some of the rapidly diminishing European set in Shanghai who entertained Cohen in late January gathered he was merely on a pleasure trip.to his old haunts. (When Cohen arrived in Hong Kong from the Red China mainland, he labeled as "damn lies" the rumors that he was in Red China on-official business.) Believe Overtures Real Europeans who know and closely study Communist moves, however, believe overtures of Chiang are genuine.

Communist leaders are appealing continually to the Nationalists over Radio Peiping to come back to the mainland where "all will be In Peiping I repeatedly requested interviews with army officials over the 'Formosa question.
