When Chou En-Lai called on General Marshall to inform
him that he wished to return to Yenan and to ask for
transportation, he said that his trip should not be
interpreted as action on his part to break off the
negotiations but rather that he was going back for a
short time for instructions and reorientation. He added
that he was leaving Tung Pi-Wu as head of the delegation
of some forty Communists in Nanking and ten in Shanghai
and that he hoped the nagotiations could be resumed before
long.
In distinction to the above, Chou has two separate occasions
during the last few days told American correspondents
that his return to Yenan does, in fact, constitute a
termination of negotiations.
