, ( 4 ta =» \y > Ap. & Tuesday, August 2, 1949 NEVADA CITY NUGGET Page Three Chiang’s Friends Helpful S™ state department stenographers were kept busy last week retyping and toning down the American white paper on China. Hastily censored out were allegations labeling certain relatives of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek as crooks. Inside reason for these sudden changes was a long and continuing argument between secretary of state Acheson and secretary of defense Louis Johnson. For three months Johnson had been building . a bonfire under the state department urging it to support Chiang Kai-shek’s Kuomintang. Johnson is a personal friend and former attorney for Dr. H. H. Kung, brother-in-law of the generalissimo and reputedly one of the world’s wealthiest men. At cabinet meetings, at super-secret meetings of the national security council, Johnson constantly, continually needled Acheson. For a long time there was no result. In fact, when Acheson returned from the Paris conference, he ordered his staff to work out a new blue print for American-Chinese relations which was to be strongly anti-Chiang. Acheson Outvoted That blue print was placed before the national security council. After a vigorous debate the vote went against Acheson—about 5 to 1. Those voting no were Johnson, the treasury department and heads of the armed _ services. favored continued support Chiang Kai-shek’s regime no matter how graft-ridden. Swinging the decision Acheson were two factors: 1. A statement by Mao Tse-tung, leader of Red China, that he was a Moscow-loving Communist; 2. First indications that Chinese Reds planned rough treatment for American personnel, as_ later proved by the beating up of U.S. Vice Consul William Olive. Instead of. Acheson’s proposed hands-off policy, the joint chiefs of staff recommended a ring of defenses around Red China. This ring will consist of the Japan-Formosa-Philippines island chain, plus Siam, Burma, India and one small part of south China where Chiang Kai-shek will be defended to. the last ditch. against General MacArthur has cabled § his vigorous support of this gen-. incidentally, will . cost a‘ large &nd so far unesti. eral idea—which, mated amount of money.

Lehman, however, knows he'll have a tough fight to win the senate seat in November, so he wants a strong candidate on the ticket with him for mayor—and not John Cashmore.
