(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT)

London, Jan. 4.

A call for the withdrawal of diplomatic re- cognition from Red China is made this morning by the Daily Telegraph. It says the Common- wealth Prime Ministers who begin their meetings here today should consider their collective policy towards China in a "mood of realism."

There have been no indications in word or deed that China's intentions are or ever have been other than aggressive, the newspaper says.

"In these circumstances,” it continues, there is little point in the Indian Prime Minister, Mr Nehru, going on. talking about the necessity of bringing the Peking Government into the Security Council.

"Nor by the same token can any case now be made out for protracting the absurd farce of this country's recognition of Mao Tse-tung's regime. It has brought us nothing but insults and humiliations...Mr Bevin's 'gesture,' designed presum- ably to please Mr Nehru, has certainly not pleased Mao Tse-tung.
