The Chinese air force procure- ment office in Washington was merely. informed by cable that the 2,956,170-gallon order had been placed with this hroker. This was peculiar on the face of it, because the Chinese air force had its own office in Wash- ingtoT™Yor the specific purpose of brying: these supplies. Another peculiar aspect was that the price was fixed ' as of September 1949— | or 3382 cents a gallon. This ac- tually was a higher price than the Chinese needed to pay, for, by January 1950, the price -had drop- ped. .11 ‘San Francisco Grocer Regl_xrdless of this, however, the Formosan government signed a contract with the Chung Foo Com- pany on Feb. 9, 1950, and the next day the Chinese air force in ‘Washington was ordered by cable to make a million dollars avail- able at the Wells Fargo bank in San Francisco to South China Enterprise, Inc. In other words fhe Chinese air force in Washington, having had nothing to do with the purchase of the gasoline, was instructed merely to pay for it. South China Enterprise Inc., was described as the American agent for the Chung Foo Company in Formosa. However, proved it was nothing more than a hole-in-the-wall grocery store in San Prancisco’s Chinatown. Patriotic Chinese, who dids not want to see their country gypped, investigated further and found that the total assets of the gro- cery store were only a few hund- red dollars. Yet it was supposed to handle a deal involving one million. Furthermore, the proprietor, knowing gasoline, turned the deal over to another middleman named Alex- ander Lindenbaum, who then con- tracted to buy the gas from Cities Service. In other words, the Chinese gov- ernment cbuld have bought the gas direct from Cities Service in the first place, instead of which it went through three middlemen—the bro- ker in Formosa, the grocery store in San Prancisco's Chinatown, and Alexander Lindenbaum. The man who placed the gasoline order was Gen. C. J. Chou, Chiang Kai-Shek's chief of staff, whose rank corresponds to that of General Bradley in the United States. In thé'end, the deal was stopped when it’teached the ears of con- scientious Sen. William Knowland of California. Russian Driving Licenses There is one interesting sidelight about the plan to make Russian diplomatg- in Washington take the same stiff auto-driver test that our diplomats are given in Moscow. American” diplomats are almost forced to qualify as mechanics be- fore getting a driver's license— which, course, is for the purpose of making them use Russian chauf- feurs in MOSCOW. What the American public does not know, however, is that Soviet diplomats figured two months ago that we meight make them take the same kind of stiff test. So, two months ago, the Russian Embassy hired several “learn-to-drive” ex- grocery-store nothing about SOCIALISTIC SLANT. run, Foo | investigation | The more H 1 gover of a socialistic tyve of taxation. e encouraged to fe t only fage man and womar i thé “well-to-do are bearing the cost the. less interest they will take the less they will worry about its stage of f were deluded with Wik circuses. ment is reviewing the of in government 1 decs rough ove uling of the tax “bite” group, whieh has he administration of new, yerttle, however, the mmittee are.look- imple manner in t they | the masses free when thought were | Two things that most young girls heed: the tele- phone bell and the automobile horn.
