Marshall to Fly to Peiping for Peace Talks Amid Chinese Civil War
Marshall planned to fly to Peiping to assist Sino American peace efforts as a three member committee without full authority attempted to broker a truce between the Nationalist government and Communist forces. In Manchuria fighting intensified around Changchun with 30,000 to 40,000 Communist troops surrounding the city and neutral planes suspected to evacuate correspondents. The no full authority committee had yet produced any binding action and the plan followed Premier Chou En Lai’s call for a broader settlement.

Seek a wage boost for railroad workers across 15 unions
Chicago April 18. Public notices filed by 15 non operating brotherhoods seek a 14 cent hourly wage increase for more than one million railroad workers across 180 carriers. This follows a 16 cent raise awarded April 3 by government arbitration boards to about 1.05 million workers and 200,000 members of three operating brotherhoods. The request targets the gap between the 30 cent demand and the board's 6 cent award, while five operating brotherhoods are not involved. Two operating groups face a presidential fact finding board due to report to the president this week. The remaining three groups had asked 2.50 per day and have not declared any extra requests.
