ORDER TO CEASE FIRE
CIVIL STRIFE IN MANCHURIA NANKING, June 6. Marshal Chiang Kai-shek has issued a cesse fire order to become effective on Friday, calling a 15-day halt in the Manchurian civil strife. “I am ordering my armies to hold all advances, attacks, and pursuits for a period of 15 days from noon on Fndey,” said Marshal Chiang Kaishek. “This will give the Communists an opportunity to demonstrate their gooa faith and their intention to carry out the agreement previously signed. However, in taking this action, the Government in no way prejudices its right under the Chinese-Soviet treaty to recover Manchurian sovereignty.” Marshal Chiang Kai-shek stipulated that the following three matters must be settled within the 15-day period(1) The complete termination of hosunties in Manchuria.
(2) Time schedules for the complete restoration of communications in China.
(3) A basis for carrying out the February agreement for the demobilisation of the armed forces. Observers expect the truce to clear the way for a permanent settlement of Communist and Kuomintang difficulties.
