CHIANG’S APPEAL REJECTED
COMMUNISTS REFUSE TO PARLEY (Rec. 7 p.m.) NANKING, June 8. The Chinese Communist radio today rejected the Government’s invitation to send a delegation to Nanking to discuss peace terms. The Government’s offer was broadcast by the Nationalist radio on May 27. The Mayor of Shanghai (Mr K. C. Wu) to-day informed the parents of the students who were recently arrested as Communist, agents, that the students would be released after two or three months of “re-education ” The parents met to demand the release on bail of all the students held, but Mr Wu assured them that the students would be lodged in a “nice house with a garden,” and that they would be treated well. He added that their re-education was necessary to allay any grudge the students might hold against the Government. After the arrests, which were made in a series of raids between May 30 and June 2, it was announced that the majority of those arrested would be deported without trial to Communist areas in China.
