LULL IN CHINA WAR Your Dad's HAS MANY REASONS Home, San!

Shanghai, Juna `12.

· Thé present lull in China's civil war can be ex- plained by militory necessity and judgment, but there may be partial explanations for it that are not wholly military.

Ever since the Reds took Mukden, abandoned the guerilla warfare for formal conquest, they have had to assume the burdens the National- ists once carried the burdens of urban China,

They have had to take over the management of ellies and trade centres which had been napped by inflation and crip- pled by stupid regulations and bid management.

This suceeraton of "prizes" like Tientsin, Thingtoo, Nanking. Shanghal, Habgehow und Han kow, in their present condition: are milliary hand leaps no less. Many observers have said right along that the possession of cities undermined the Nationalists to the benefit of the Reds.

Even with the

help first of UNRRA, then of the China Relief Mission, and finally ECA, the cities were drained dry. Shanghai, the biggest and theoretically the richest of all, did rol pay its own way. The Nationalist Treasury paid the Shanghai municipal budget deficit a couple of years.
