Wallace Ends Mission To China With Plan For Peace in Asia •» th* Associated Press. CHUNGKING, June 24.—Vice President Wallace ended his mis sion to Chungking today with a joint Chinese-American press re lease which declared that enduring peace in the Pacific would depend on permanent demilitarization of Japan; understanding, friendship and collaboration among China. Russia, Britain and the United States, and recognition of the right of self-government for Asiatic peo ples nowr dependent. The statement said Mr. Wallace. Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek and other Chinese officials who held discussions in “an informal, frank and friendly atmosphere,’’ had “found themselves in agreement on basic principles and objectives." It declared “prosecution of the war against Japan in Asia is an urgent job and mutual assistance in every possible way to get that job done quickly and efficiently is fundamental in Chinese-American relations.” In the five days of conferences since Mr. Wallace arrived, it was said cognizance was taken of “the cornerstone position of China in Asia and the importance of China in any structure for peace in the Pacific area.” and “it was assumed as axiomatic that an essential to such a peace structure would be continuation of the ties of friend ship that have characterized Ameri can-Chinese relations for over a century, and maintenance of rela tions on a basis of mutual under standing between China and the Soviet Union.” Seven years of.resistance to Japan, the announcement said, and three years of isolation had presented China with serious economic and financial difficulties, but “the Chi nese people are facing these difficul ties with fortitude, confident of their ability to stand the strain until greater material assistance from abroad becomes feasible.” The statement said plans were be ing made “for the establishment of a constitution to guarantee indi vidual rights and freedom and es tablish representative government.” Sigma Delta Chi Dance The Washington Alumni Chapter of Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism fraternity, will have its annual spring founder's day dinner dance Wednesday night at the Ban nockburn Country Club, Glen Echo, Md.

Wirephoto. Yanks Captured on D-Day Escape in French Clothes By WALTER McCALLUM, Star War Correspondent. WITH THE 101st DIVISION IN FRANCE (By Mail).—The two kids in French civilian clothes walked down the dusty road toward the division commancgi post, a jaunty grin on their laces, % cigarettes perched precariously on’lower lip6. "Who are those guys?” we asked. "Guys from the Blank Regi ment,” the guard answered. The kids plodded on. They came back later, full of steak and wine,! the grins broader than ever. I offered them a bottle of cognac! and asked them to sit down, these: parachute infantrymen from the 82nd Division, who had had an other of those incredible epxeri ences which have come to many \ American kids here in France. The two were Corpl. Donald E. Janotta, a tall blond from Norwalk. Ohio, and Pvt. Gerald C. Wilson of Cleveland, a couple of Buckeye! kids, dressed in heavy French shoes, torn French clothing and berets. They looked exactly like a couple of the Frenchmen you see stream-! ing back into occupied towns here in Normandy. Landed Near Montebourg. They dropped by parachute around 1:30 this morning of D-day, near Montebourg, a little French town which has proven a tough nut for our troops. Around noon of D-day, after wandering around through the hedgerows and having a couple of scraps with German pa trols, their group, by this time en larged to a dozen or more, was cap tured when Jerry machine gun ners pinned them down in a hedge row corner. They were marched back to a town, where they found other Americans captured. They w’ere marched to Bricquebec. “That was a rough walk,” they said. “On the double all the time and for a lot of miles.” Jerry bedded them down in a barn, and the next morning they asked permission to go out and pick some onions for breakfast. Out of sight of the guards they slipped over a wall and escaped. They made their way to a French farmhouse, using the little thumbnail com passes the Army gave them, and traded their uniforms for French clothing. “Those Frenchmen were crazy to get pur boots,” said Wilson. “They'd give almost anything for those .iump boots. We buried our old uniforms and kept our dog tags. The French were very hospitable, but we no ticed as we got near the fighting lines they were glad to get rid of us. Afraid the Germans would shoot them for helping us escape, I guess. “We followed the shellfire, duck ing under the German guns and ducking when our own shells came close. We came out in a valley, where we could see American small arms firing. We stood up and waved. A lieutenant came out about 400 yards away and beckoned to us. We walked toward him and finally made lt. Boy, it's good to get back But I feel sorry for those guys back there in Jerry's hands. We were strafed by our own planes. Of course they couldn’t tell. I guess some of our guys were shot by that P-47 which strafed us when Jerry was walking us back.” Led Heroir Company. Lt. Richard D. V .nters of Lancas ter, Pa., showed valiant action under enemy fire near St. Come Du Mont andCarentan. Lt. Winters is a for mer intercollegiate wrestler, a husky gent of 175 pounds, who doesn't I drink, smoke or chew. Right now he is sweating out being invalided back to England for a leg wound. “I don't want to go back I want another crack at those Heinies,” he says. Through the field telephone came an order to Lt. Winters to take his company and alienee a battery of four German 88s which were shell-! ing the beach. “I looked around at my company and found nine men and an officer,” he said. “But we went ahead. We^taktoed grenades into the German positions and got German grenades in return. Pour Jerries took off over an open field. We got three of them with rifle fire and took two 88s, but they pinned us down with machine gun fire and we couldn’t move. We captured two prisoners and I had to send some men back with them. That cut down our strength pretty much, but we went after the next 88. We were stuck for 2 hours in front I of the position, but finally, with grenades and rifle fire we got all the guns and silenced the battery.” After that little show, Lt. Win ters W'ent into the front line when the SS troops counterattacked Carentan the night of June 12 and the morning of the 13th. His com manding officer says it was Lt. Win ter’s personal leadership w-hich held the crucial position in the line and tossed back the enemy with mor tar and machine gun fire. * “He was a fine soldier out there,” the CO said. “His personal braverv and battle knowledge held a crucial position when the going was really rough.” It can be revealed now that the Yanks were in’ real dan ger of losing Carentan on the 13th. Their strength depleted, they were being shoved around by a deter mined attack of Scheutzstaffel troops, reinforced by some German parachute infantrymen. American tanks moved in when the Yanks were catching crossfire from be hind their positions when German infiltrated. Lt. Winters lost 19 of 89 men in his outfit. That's how tough it was. British Sink 3 U-Boats In Arctic Circle Battle LONDON, June 25 (Sunday).— Three German submarines were sunk and several were damaged in a battle with British ships and planes above the Arctic Circle which developed out of an attempted at tack on a convoy to Russia in April the British Admiralty disclosed to day. Six enemy planes attempting to direct the U-boats to the attack also were shot down by naval fighter planes. The only Allied loss on sea or in the air was one plane downed by a U-boat. Its pilot was saved. VASES WIRED INTO LAMPS ! d.3 l£M O 1., IN. W.
