White of the Associated Press offered an interesting interpretation on China thq other day that appears to be gaining support. He felt that there was some deliberate calculation behind the latest student demonstrations against the United States. Previously the government had acted quickly in such incidents, especially in Shanghai where the Communists are strong. This time the government did no such thing.

There were even examples of toleration, in addition to inaction. The Peiping police failed to co-operate in the alleged assault case, according to U.S. Marine authorities, and now the Chinese News Service (an official government agency) circulates a news story of the demonstrations Which refers to the woman in the case as Chinese girl." According to U.S. Marine Corps headquarters, this is scarcely an accurate reference. The service also says that "io untoward incidents occurred as the demonstrators conducted themselves in an orderly a statement which is at variance with American news agencies.

It is also estimated that several million of the temporarily unemployed in 1947 or early 1948 could find work by returning to school-teaching (there is a shortage of instructors); by enlisting or -enlisting in the armed services: fc going bifck to the farms; or by -suming their pre-war positions domestics.1 These are the major reasons why President Truman's aides, includh big Economic Advisory Council that the 1947-1943 cycl wi'l swing in such a war as to hn But both cases involve national interest and Federal laws and constitutional provisions, all of which are superior legally and politically to the state of Mississippi.

The Chinese Government now is indicating how easily anti-American forces and Chinese Communists might become predominant if United States aid is withheld. This may be a somewhat strained interpretation of the facts, not all of which are available in the news- reports. But it "is certain that a change is occurring in Chinese-American relations. Deference of our large credit serves notice on the Chinese Government that its efforts to produce stable internal conditions must be speeded.

Otherwise, American loans can not be used constructively. The hope is that this tactic will diminish the area of disagreement between the gov-emmenjt and the Chinese Communists through reform and concession; and the test moves of the government in Nanking are not likely to have a favorable reception in this countrv. TKE MAP CHANCES More trouble for the map-makers and graphy students: the Soviet Government is changing names again. Tilsit becomes Sovetsk, Insterburg is Chernyakovsky, and Pillauis Baltiisk under the newest Russian decree' regarding the Soviet Union's portion of pre-war German East Prussia. One recalls that at Tilsit in 1807, Napoleon and Tsar Alexander I of Russia divided much market in 1929, and in 1937 and 1946.

It might well be true of farm land prices again. The Department of Agriculture for some time has been issuing warnings against inflated farm land prices.

Senator Ellender of Louisiana is quoted in the Washington Post as paying the Bilbo case is a "shameful attempt to interfere with the sovereign rights of the State of Mississippi."
