SCHAIRMUSTDIE
WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 (UP_
ed today for an immediate joust
with the new Republican Congress
over U. S. policy toward China.
It will be the first of two crucial
tests confronting Marshall as in-
coming Secretary of State. The
second will be the Moscow Big Four
conference in March when he be-
gins negotiating with the Russians
on a German peace treaty.
On China, where he was a spec-
ial envoy for 13 months, Marshall
appeared headed for disagreement
with the new Republican chairman
of the Senate Foreign Relations
committee, Arthur H. Vandenberg
of Michigan.
Vandenberg pledged himself to
continue the united and non-par-
tisan approach to foreign policy.
But- he contended there could be
within it earnest and even violent
differences of opinion.
In his Cleveland speech Satur-
day, Vandenberg expressed bluntly
some of the foreign policy issues
on which he has disagreed with
outgoing Secretary of State James
F. Byrnes. That speech is being
examined word by word by the
State Department’s top officials in
preparation for Manhall's arrival
after a few more days of rest in
Hawaii.
Speaking on the same Cleveland
platform, Byrnes was more hope-
ful than at any time since V~ Day
that real peace can be restored—
provided his policy of “patience
and firmness" is continued. Van-
denberg was in complete agree-
ment with the firm policy.
Vandenberg was in complete dis-
agreement with Byrnes over Ar-
gentina. On the basis of Marshall’s
report on China, the Senator ap-
peared to differ with the new sec-
retary over that civil-war-torn na-
tion.
He was dissatisfied with the U. S.
representation at the United Na-
tions. And overall, he thought there
was no "permanent” American pol-
icy—just a "catch-as-catch-can im-
provisation and expediency.”
Vandenberg also urged this gov-
ernment to make certain occupa-
tion troops are kept in Germany
"until the job is done.” In this re-
gard. Sen. Owen Brewster. H., Me.,
predicted that Marshall would
agree to Army requests that the
State Department assume control
of the German occupation.

Mooney told the annual meeting
