STRUGGLE FOR NORTH CHINA HOLDING FIRE
Poiping, December 6. Many quarters here think the Reds will not start a major action in Hopei until they bring heavy artillery into this maritime province from Man- churic.
There is no evidence so far that they have done so. It is common knowledge that the North China Com- mander, General Fu Tso-yi, suffers from a lack of big guns.

Washington, December 5.
Against the background that some Chinese leaders АГО underkload to have opposed United Blaten support of Chiang Kai-shek on the grounds that such action would only prolong - a government that is certain to fall, the omcial thinking is that there is little likelihood that President Truman will ask the Congre for more help for China.
