22.

However, it was conceded that the American threat to appeal to the Security Council should Yugoslavia fail to comply would give the Council its supreme test of authority to settle disputes pacifically. Up to now the Council never lias been faced with such an emergency as might be brought before it were the Yugoslavs, stiffened by Russian backing, to ignore or reject the American -ultimatum. could plead urgency and demand Pattern of Conflict a session at once.

The veto power vested in the big five, which Russia thrice invoked in the Spanish case, may well prove the deciding factor should the Yugoslav case come before the Council.

A firm stand by the United States against Russia's; demands for a share in the military control of the strategic Dardanelles. 2. Disclosure by those high in government of a firm new policy against appeasing Russia and against a further spread of Soviet domination over smaller and weaker countries. Blistering; Note If that policy is to come up for a quick test, the issue was unfolded in iast night's blistering note to Yugoslavia. Shorn of the traditional diplomatic salutations, it was couched in language perhaps without precedent in peacetime communications from this country to another nation.

It stemmed from" two "incidents" termed ''outrageous" in the ultimatum. One was the action of Yugoslav fighters August 9 in firing upon and forcing down an American plane, whose crew and passengers were then imprisoned. The second involved another passenger plane ten days later. The State Department said it had been informed that" this plane was shot down, and "some if not all" of its occupants killed. Wreckage Found Dispatches from Belgrade said the wreckage of the craft was found only about two miles from the Austrian border.

The United States claimed that the planes were forced off their routes by bad weather. Yugoslavia has disputed this, taking the position, that- the planes were over Yugoslavia illegally and in violation of its territory. Taking sharp note of the Yugoslav explanations, the United States termed them "wholly unsatisfactory to the government and shocking to the people of the United States." outrageous acts have been perpetrated by a government that professes to be a friendly nation," the ultimatim said. Citing the fact that the planes were unarmed, it declared that their flight "in no way consti-- tiited s. threat to the sovereign- ity of Yugoslavia." Then added, significantly: No "Justification" "The use of force by Yugoslavia under the circumstances was without the slightest justification in international' law, was clearly inconsistent with relations between, friendly nations, and was plain violation of the obligations resting upon Yugoslavia under the charter of the United- Nations not to use force except in self Moreover, the document put in this indictment: "The deliberate firing without warning on the unarmed passenger planes of a friendly nation is, in the judgment of the United States, an offense against the law of nations and the principles of humanity." Formal Demands With that array of charges laid down, the American note formally puts its demands.

They were these: 1. "The government of the United States demands that you immediately release the occupants of those planes now in your custody, and that you insure their safe passage beyond the borders of 2 "The government of- the United States also demands its representatives be permitted to communicate with any of the. occupants of the two. planes who are'still alive."

Manchuria, Cockpit of Orient, Faces Prospect of More War Will Probably Become Main Battlefield For Chinese Civil Conflict Unless Some Miracle More Years of Misery for People By Glenn Babb A resumption of full scale warfare appears imminent, in churia, that unhappy cockpit'of the Orient. The Chinese Communists hold most of the country and appear determined -to stay. The Nationalists, thus far-held to-the, railways and cities of the southern tip, show equal-determination to regain this rich territory, withheld from them by a succession of invaders for the last ISyears. Manchuria is the prize most worth fighting for in eastern Asia, despite the dismantling by the Russians of the best part of the great military industrial plant built up there by the Japanese. Few parts of the world have seen more of war and its resultant misery for the civilian-population than Manchuria since the beginning of the century.

There the Russians fought the Japanese fought Chinese, Chinese fought one another in a series of civil wars of which that now in progress promises to be the bitterest. More years of misery: for the'patient peasants who make up nearly-all its 38,000,000 population are in prospect. Mam Battlefield Unless some near miracle halts China's civil strife it is logical I that Manchuria should be the 'main battlefield.

The railway agreement, for example, made the main trunk railways? of that territory--the Chinese Eastern and South Manchuria "lines--a joint enterprise.

Truman arrived at Bermuda on a vacation cruise. hours from the receipts of this note. by the Yugoslav government these demands are complied with, United States wil determine in the light the evidence then secured and -the efforts of the Yugoslav" 'government to right the, wrong done." But, it added: "If, however, within the time these demands are not complied with, the United States government will call upon the Security' Council of; the United Nations to meet pr.om.pty-.and to take apprporiate action," There was quick Capitol Hill support for the ultimatum. Chaiman Bloom New York of the House foreign affairs committee told a reporter it is "high time we stopped pussy-footing." An American demand for Security Council investigation and action could be instituted through a formal request to either Trygvie Lie, U. N.

secretary general, or to Oscar Lange, Polish representative and currently the Council's- president. If the past record of-United Nation's votes is an indication then a country definitely within the Soviet sphere of influence likely would have Russia as her champion in the Council. Thus the possibility of a Soviet veto would arise. But before it could be exercised- a full-dress debate would be assured--not only-of the issues involved in the immediate disput but of. the impact a might have-on long range peace.

pan's war machine, the Kwan- tung Army. Whether, they received Russian aid or- not--a point in dispute--the fact remains that when the Red Army was withdrawn to Siberia- circumstances were such that the Communists remained in poses- sion, in stronger force and with better arms and equipment than anywhere else in China. Now, as proof of their determination to remain, the Communists have announced from their present capital, in; Yenan the establishment of their-" own government of provisional supreme administration for democratic Manchuria," made up of 86 elected delegates from all sections, and dedicated to founding peaceful, prosperous Manchuria by uniting all." Every consideration dictates that the Chinese Communists should fight to last to hold Manchuria-and to make it the foundation 'of a. Chinese Communist state. There, with Communist Russia at their backs, thev might have some chance to -found a state of their own, which, however, would have little chance of remaining outside the Soviet orbit.

But if the Communists hold on in Manchuria it is- inevitable that a fast community of interest should be established.
