The right thing to do, Attiee said. would be to retire Chiang Kai-shek and his immediate adherents, "who are utterly discredited," to "some safe place to live their lives in peace."

The rank and file of the Nation- alist army then would be absorbed by Communist China, he pre- dicted. .

The party leader reaffirmed his previous stand that the Chinese Communists should be admitted to the United Nations.

He scorned suggestions that the Chinese Communist government is "a mere satellite of Russia." He said he does not believe "the lead- ers of China can in the least de- gree be compared with the kind of people who have been put in to govern the satellites in eastern Europe."
