STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA Prime - Minister Churchill was described by this responsible in formant, who declined the use of his name, as favoring a break in diplomatic ties with Red Chi na after the Chinese Communists intervened in Korea against Uni ted Nations forces. The UN forces included British troops. At that time Clement Attlee’s labor government was in power in London. The British government for the moment, however, sees no special reason for withdrawing its.recog nition of Red China while the present truce negotiations are going on, the informant said. What the British attitutde would be in event the present talks collapse and Chinese Com munists resume full scale attacks was not made clear. American and British military chiefs have taken into corisider ation, the informant said, what to do in the event - communist China steps up its military aid or unleashes .new aggression against any southeast Asian country. Stassen To End 'Khaki .. SAN FANCISCO, Jan. 18— (JP) —Harold E. Stassen tonight chal lenged ' Gen.' Dwight D. Eisenhower to come out from behind his “khaki curtain” to seek the Republican presidential nomination. At the same time, the former governor „of Minnesota, himself an avowed candidate, said he does not believe the nomination “is already zipper ed up in a plush lined bag” for Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio. . Stassen predicted, in a speech prepared for a dinner meeting of the Republican national commit tee, that the voters in primaries beginning in March will establish the most popular candidate. He added he thinks he may be that man. 1 Eisenhower has said he is a Republican and available for the party nomination but won’t join in the campaigning prior to the July nominating convention in Chicago. Taft has claimed he already has strength which, if translated into votes in Chicago, will give him the nomination on an early bal lot. WASHINGTON, Jan. 18—(#) Democrats who hope President Truman will run for re-election got a little more grist for their mill today when a House mem ber quoted Truman as saying, “I never quit. under fire or ran away from anything.” Rep. Sieminski. (D-N.J.) said the President made that com- Vishinsky Talks Tough to Win Aims-Delegate PARIS, Jan. 18—(iP) —A high United States delegate said today Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky talked tough on the Korean armistice in an effort to force concessions from the United Nations. The United States delegate, who preferred not to be identi fied, said this was his opinion of Vishinsky’s warning yesterday that there is “no hope” of an arm istice in Korea so long as the' 'Americans continue making what Vishinsky called unreasonable Re mands. The United States and other delegations, especially those with fighting forces opposing the com munists in Korea, indicated strongly that the UN will not make the concessions they said Vishinsky apparently wants. They did not state the nature of these concessions in their speculation. Draft Headquarters Orders 906 Re-exams HARRISBURG. Jan. 10—(AF^ — State draft headquarters today is sued calls for re-examination of 609 registrants previously turned down because of failure to pass mental tests. Col. Henry M. Grpss, state draft director, said the re-examinations were ordered in compliance with a new federal draft directive. Persons to be re-examined are now classified 4-F. Challenges Ike ment while they chatted at the White House today. The congress man is one of those trying to persuade Truman to seek an other term. Asked if he thought the Presi dent would do so, Sieminski told newsmen: “If there is a fight and he’s asked to join, he’ll fight—he’ll never quit—that’s my opinion.” Holtzinger to Talk To Alfrusa Club Dr. Albert H. Holtzinger, direc tor of the chemistry laboratories, will be guest speaker at a meet ing of the Altrusa Club of State College at 12:15 p.m. Tuesday at the Hotel State College. ■ Dr. Holtzinger, district gover nor of the national organization of Lions, • will speak on “The Function of a Service Club.” Dr. Pauline- Beery B.

Curtain' 2 Churchill Actions Surprise U.K., U.S. Prime Minister OK's Appointment Of U.S. Naval Head WASHINGTON, Jan. 18—(&) — Prime Minister Winston Church ill today yielded to the appoint ment of an American as supreme allied naval commander in At lantic waters, but won a promise of a million tons of scarce U.S. steel for Britain. The steel will be exchanged for British tin and aluminum, badly needed in America’s rearmament program. Churchill’s acceptance of an American to head the North At lantic Treaty naval forces -came as something of a surprise con cession during his farewell con ference with President Truman at the White House. Navy quarters said the most logical choice as the new “sea going Eisenhower” would be Ad miral Lynde D. McCormick, now commander of the U.S. Atlantic fleet. .A Navy spokesman said an of ficial announcement could not be made until certain formalities have been completed. British leaders had balked at the selection of an American, con tending that Britain’s traditional “Rule Britannia” naval prestige pointed to the appointment of a Briton. It was also argued, in London, that through long experience Brit ish sea commanders were better qualified to protect the supply lines to Britain and Europe against submarine warfare. President Truman and Church ill announced the metals “swap" agreement in a joint communi que. They said the, pact will en able the two countries “to carry out more effectively their com mon task of contributing to the strength and security of the free world.” Chapel Choir Tryouts Chapel Choir will hold rehear sal for try-outs at 7 p.m. Feb ruary 4, in 100 Carnegie Hall.

Jan. 18—(#>)—British diplomats second-guessed Prime Minister Winston Churchill today on his bid for token forces from the United States' Prance and Turkey to line up with British troop's in the Suez Canal zone. They expressed fear he had blundered. Eyebrows raised as they studied a sentence from the Prime Minis ter’s speech to Congress in Wash ington yesterday: “It would enormously aid us if even token forces of the other partners in the four power pro posal (for a Middle East defense command) were stationed in the canal zone as a symbol of the unity of purpose which inspires us.” Egyptians immediately attacked the statement, in Paris and in Cairo. That was a reaction in keeping with Egypt’s three-month campaign to oust British garri sons from the zone. An Egyptian spokesman' at the United Nations, Dr. Mahmoud Azmi Bey, told re porters the proposal “constitutes a new attack on the sovereignty of Egypt.” British forces are in the canal zone under a’ 1936 Anglo-Egyp tian treaty of alliance which Egypt has torn up. International law would be breached if other for eign troops were brought into the area without Egypt’s consent. Such a move would be resented by the entire Moslem world. If the United States and the other nations reject the idea of sending in token forces, the Egyp tians might be justified in think ing that Britain stands alone in the bitter Suez dispute.
