Abend ... (Continued from Page 1). "What was done about it?" Blunders in China. The United States made two prime blunders in losing the good will of the Chinese government For clean clothes around the clock r r- v m m 5k and people, according to Abend The first concerns Xcsnchuria At the meeting of Cnurchlll Roosevelt and Chiang Kai shek in CalrO; it was definitely decided that China would get Manchuria intact as part of the winner's spoils. The six billion dollars in vested in Manchuria by Japan would go to China in lieu of the Jap indemnity they would never be able to pay. Then, at the next major con ference, held at Yalta with Roose velt, Churchill and Stalin pres ent, Russia was given outer Mon golia and Manchuria. One million square miles of Chinese territory already promised to the Chinese were suudenly given to Russia "Why?" Abend asked. Intervention. The second blunder was the ab solute military intervention in the Chinese civil war by the United States late in the summer of 1943 "We took over important cities and rail lines and gave their con trol to the Kai shek government," Abend said. "Although Commun istic control of the Chinese gov ernment would have been disns trous from an American point of view, we had no business sticking our nose into the affair," he added. "At the present time there are five governments in China, each with their own army and cur rency system," Abend stated. "In the 15 years I've spent there, there have always been nt least two governments, and at one time there were eight. Army draft. The graft in the Chinese setup was disclosed by Abend when he told of the 327 divisions in Kai shek's army. "Each division, sup posedly numbering 12,000 men. actually had a strength of only ,700," he said. "Yet these divi sions were drawing enough food and pay for a full division. When the U. S. took over parts of the Chinese army, they found the men sufering from malnutrition. They were underweight an average of I 19.95 to Smart new styles for date wear in rayon crepes and jer seys.

"American policy was 'right' for the first time when Gen. George C. Marshall assumed command of the Far East," Abend stated. "He announced that food to relieve starvation would be the only help the United States would give China until they quit civil war and set up a coalition govern ment." "That is the policy to follow in China not intervention," Abend said. Appeasement. "We made fun of Britain for appeasing Hitler," Abend con tinued. "Yet we appeased Japan for over 50 years. We pulled one of the dirtiest deals on the world ever made while under the The odore Roosevelt presidency. When Japan wished tq annex Korea, we gave our consent as long as Japan would promise to leave the Phil ippines alone. "Then, prior to this last world conflict," Abend continued, "we watched Japan fortify Saipan but refused to do the same thing on neighboring Guam for fear of hurting Tokyo's feelings. 0 "We knew of Jap atrocities and yet appeased her," he concluded. 'Will the same thing happen re garding Russia?" Alumni (Continued from Page 1). 14, Columbus, are candidates for member-at-large on the executive committee for a three yoar term.
