Girl's life spared in Malaya political move
Ipoh Perak Malaya March 9 Lee Meng the Chinese girl guerrilla leader whose execution was sought by Communist Hungary was spared by the Sultan who commuted her death sentence to life imprisonment. The move opens the way for British reconsideration of Hungary's offer to trade Lee Meng for Edgar Sanders. Prison officials withheld the news from the 25 year old ringleader and her lawyers said telegrams about the reprieve were blocked. Churchill in Parliament March 2 said there can be no bartering a human life, while not ruling out further clemency review once Malayan authorities decide.
