But, the influential independent newspaper said: "The men would seem to be well and comfortable. The offer would not else have been made.

"More than that, the Chinese government is clearly anxious to make a propitiatory gesture to American feelings and keep the international temperature low. "Perhaps the offer can best be taken as a sign that China is ready to relent gradually over the prisoners if the United States on its side allows some of the Chinese students now in America to go back to China."

In St. Maur, a big suburb east of Paris, 1,000 people had to be evacuated when the river collapsed a dike nnd flooded low sections. At Choisy )e Roi, southeast of Paris, 2,000 inhabitants have fled from their flooded homes in the past 48 hours. All along the river, both east and west of Paris, workmen are building sandbag barriers. Already had seeped Into cellars of such historic buildings in the heart of the city as the Notre Dame cathedral which is on an island in the river; and the Palais Bourbon, which houses the National Assembly.

Today, more buildings on the left Bank were Invaded and many homes on the fashionable west side. The polo field and the Longchamps racetrack In the Bois de Boulogne were submerged. The river has reached the streets of Paris tn only a few spots, the Qual de Bercy and the Qua! de Rapee on the east side were most affected. A leak onto the Quai de Paisy on the west was quickly checked. Pumps are employed at several spots along riverside avenues, The city's tap water has turned yellow, but officials said it was still safe to drink.

Worse off was suburban Puteaux which went without lights 35 minutes last night when a transformer was flooded. In Suresnes, the U.S. Army was moving stock out of the basement of its big post exchange on the Seine opposite the Bois de Boulogne. Part of the nearby Longchamp Race Track was also under water.
