CHINA’S SEAT ON U.N.
British Attitude To Communists COMMENT FROM PEIPING (N.Z. Press Association—Copyright) (Rec. 8 p.m.) SAN FRANCISCO, May 29. The Chinese Communists to-day again accused Britain of bad faith over the recognition question. The Peiping radio quoted a Communist official newspaper, the “People's Daily,” as saying that the British Foreign Secretary (Mr Ernest Bevin) in a speech in the House of Commons last week went so iar as to say that to establish diplomatic relations with China was “an unpleasant decision.” The broadcast added: “This fully exposes the purpose of the British Government.”
The radio reiterated Communist demands for British support in obtaining a seat on the United Nations and for the release of the 71 transport aeroplanes at Hong Kong. The ownership of these aircraft is in dispute. "If the British Government does not clarify its attitude of discrepancy between its words and its deeds it is futj’e for it to discuss the nroblem in Washington with the United States Secretary of State (Mr Dean Acheson,” said the radio.
