PAGE EIGHT MANCHURIAN COMMUNISTS MAY BARGAIN Ge. Marshall ls Conferring with Leaders in Effort to End Civil Strife ment forces faced 80,000 Chinese Communists 36 miles south of Man- churia’s capital today while Gen-| eral Marshall met here with lead- ers of both factions in a determin- ed effort to end the civil strife Word of a possible government compromise proposal came from a spckesman for the Kuomintang (Nationalist, party). He said the government might agree to Com- munist control of ‘“certain parts” of Manchuria, if the Communists would give up major cities and op- en rail lines to government traffic. Last reports showed the Com- munists in a good bargaining pos- ition. They held Changchun, the capital, and were prepared to oc- cupy Harbin, farther north, to- morrow—date set for Soviet evac- uation. ->o> 30 PASSENGERS ARRIVEBY PAA FROM SEATIL Pan American Airways yesterday duty as Director of the Command's — flew the following passengers to end from Seattle: To Seattle: Thomas Porter, Mae Porter, Eimer Foutz, Joe Lalime, Jean Sunday, Robert Simpson, Ber- nice Tudor, Virginia Tudor, Rich- ard Tudor, Mary Campbell, Mar- tha Campbell, Connie Whittemore, Richard Whittemore, William Wells, Donald Shute, R.

GOOD NEWS WASHINGTON, April 24.—Good news for motorists: The rubber in- dustry bids fair to surpass its tow- ering production goal of 66,000,000 new passenger tires this -year. Civilian production officials made this encouraging forecast today, | saying the record output drive is being helped by new cotton yarn controls protecting tire cord sup- plies. The industry’s goal is 13,000,000 tires more than the estimated 53,-| 000,000 passenger casings produced in the previous banner year of 1941. Despite the present bright out- look, however, CPA officials cau- tioned motorists that retail deal- ers probably will continue to run a week or two behind on tire de- liveries throghout the summer, catching up with day-to-day de- mand only in the final quarter of the year. ——————— Joseph L.
