Shanghai. China. Aug. 10. (UP)— Gen. George C Marshall declared oOicially today that peace In China was impossible and that a battle lo thc death waa in the making between central government forces and the Chinese (Jommunists.
"The fighting daily grows more widespread and threatens to engulf the country and puss beyond the control of those responsible." Mar¬ shall said in a joint statement with Dr. John Leighton Stuart, New U. S. Ambassador  to  China.
Nanking dispatches said Mar¬ shall, convinced the peace mission on which President Truman had sent him was a failure, would re¬ turn to the United States about Sept, 15. There waa litle likeli¬ hood he would return to China. WanU  to  Wipe  out  Reda
Nanking political sources said the central government of Gen¬ eralissimo Chiang Kai-Shek, after more than 20 years' .warfare with the Chines* Communists, was de¬ termined to wipe them out by mili¬ tary means and extend its juris¬ diction over all China.
Govornment Minister of Tnforma¬ tion Pong' Hsueh-Pei said Chiang would issue an important statement next Wednesday "which will define the government position."
Peiping    dispatches    reported    a second clash between U.S. Marines and Communists on a northern rail line. Reds Demand Control
As a basis for permanent peace, the central government asked the Communists to evacuate certain areas in central and northern China under the Army reorganization plan.
ThU withdrawal would leave the Communists only an area In the North Hingan Mountains. The Communists agreed to withdraw their armies but in return demand¬ ed permission to maintain their own local administrations and their own peace preservation corpi In those areas.
Tlie government refused, con¬ tending that this amounted to con¬ tinued Communist domination, and it was at this point that negotia¬ tions entered a deadlock that was never  broken.

Washington, Aug. 10. (UP)—The rocket-powered Bell XS-1, first air- cr^<rt designed for flight faster than sound, will be flown under its own power for the first time this fall, possibly at Muroc I.,ake. Cal.. the National Advisory Cominittee for Aeronautics announced tonight.
NACA said the plane, built by Bell Aircraft Corporation under contract to the Army Air Force.s. may be taken up to 3,-i.0OO feet fastened to a B-29 and "releaaed to shoot up to .still higher altitudes to  achieve  greater  speed."
NACA disclosed (hat the Douglaa Aircraft Corporation, under Navy contract, also is building a plane^to exceed the speed of sound — 760 miles an hour at sea level
"The firat supensonic flight is aa significant a frontier as waa the first flight of all," NACA said.

of Yugoslavia's request that Al¬ bania be invited to the peace eon¬ ference in a consultative  capacity.
After tempers calmed, the con¬ ference heard at an afternoon session Premier Alicde de Gaapcrl of Italy present an eloquent appeal for less harsh peace terms for hia country in recognition of her aerv¬ ices to the Allied cause. Byrnea Chairman Monday
After de Gasperi's speech. Prem¬ ier-President Bidault adjourned tha conference until Monday at 10 a. m. when Byrnes will take his flrst turn aa chairman.
The delegates to the august assembly of 21 nations seeking to write peace treaties for Italy and four other Axis satellites were treated to one of the moat amaz¬ ing spectacles in the history of di¬ plomatic protocol.
It was an extension of an angry row between Bidault and Vishinsky which haa been in progress ainca yesterday, when the Russian lar- castically attacked the agenda drafted by Bidault for the session and criticized the failure of the conference secretariat to produce Russian translations of all docu¬ ments with dispatch.
Today's debate over Yugoslavia's request alrea()y had produced some of the rougticst language of the meeting, including flat charge that Premier Constantin Tsaldaris had offered to carve up the little Balkan state between Greece and Yugo¬ slavia. Thought >Iolntav Walked out

However, since Molotov frequently leaves tha chamber and comes back after 10 or 15 minutes it was strongly doubted that the matter had any significance — particularly since Molotov does not understand French and had no Idea what Tsaldaris waa talking about.

The government research agency did not estimate the speed the supersonic plane may attain but when its existence was flrst dis¬ closed by the AAP this spring, speculation ran from 1.000 to 1.500 miles   an   hour.
The XS-1 is a small plane with a wingspan only about half of that of convential aircraft in relation to the length of the fuselage. An automatic device will eject the pilot from the cockpit, should diffi¬ culty arise, and a special para¬ chute will drop him to the ground.
At the speed of sound, conven¬ tional aircraft would encounter vibration. Air would not flow over their surfaces in orderly patterns as in subsonic flight.
One version of the plane mav have wings swept back at 38 to 45 degrees. NACA wind tunnel lasts indicate thia will decrease drag or resistance and possibly maka tha plana easier  to  control.
Airlines, said today that Constella¬ tion   planes,   ordered   grounded   forj 30   days   afler   a   fatal   crash   laat July 30, would be back in operation 1 on   International  runs  Sepl.   1  and on  tran.sconlincntal  runs Sept,  15.
Tlie planes were ordered grounded pending an inquiry into a Con- stellHlion crash at Reading, Pa., in which five crewmen were killed.

VVashington. Aug. 10. (UP)—The battle of big words between Presi¬ dent Truman and Rep. Clarence J. Brown, Ohio Republican, got so rugged tonight that one of Brown's own typists was booby-trapped by his latest  jaw-breaker.
Brown. GOP congressional cam¬ paign direclor, is the man who started the run on dictionaries by accusing Mr. Truman of practic¬ ing ingannation (deception) in talk¬ ing about a balanced budget. PaKy Preference
At his news conference yester¬ day, Mr. Truman countered that Brown was attempting obfuscation by using a $40 Republican word such as ingannation. The Presi¬ dent said obfuscation was a Demo¬ cratic word meaning to mi.x up. He g»ve no price ceiling on its value.
Tonight, Brown reared back and fired not one, but four, etymo¬ logical blockbusters at Mr. Truman and  his  revised  budget.
Brown said he had no desire to indulge in "paronomasia" with Mr. Truman abnut the budget, but that he couldn't let the President's "light-hearted induration of Fri¬ day's press conference mark the end  of the debate."
But paronomasia and Induration were only jthe half of It.
Brown, completely warned up by now and throwing the thesaurua with a sharp-breaking curve, aftld Mr, Truman Informed the "pertina¬ cious" reporters that the Budget would have been balanced had tt not been for the terminal leav* pftj; appropriation.
So far so good. Brown'a typM was handling paronomasia, ln(luTft- tion and pertinacious Ilka ft tM> eran.
Then It happened. Too .Murh Is Obvious
Taking a full wind-up, Brown said that in reminding Mr. Trumaa about a few budget balancing itema, he did not mean to "exprobrata." That apparently was too much for Brown's typist. She completely muffed the second "r" and it earn* out this way In tha official Repub¬ lican   national  committee  releaaai
"Exprobate." I    The  typist  recovered beautifully, however,   especially   on   this   pftrft- I graph of Brown'a statement:
I "ingannation may be a 140 Ra- i publican  word   l» Mr. Trum«n,  but
II wish to remind him that obfusca¬ tion.  which  he claimed  aa  a  good
iDemocratic word . . Is prodigtnualy I more expenaive. It Is, !¦ fact, • $370,000,000,000 word. . . ,*
