...that naive Chinese efforts to sow some lasting seeds of Communist propaganda failed. Out of 3,500 prisoners, only 90 have been identified as "progressives." Of these, Army officials believe that fewer than 30 showed themselves really susceptible to enemy propaganda, and some of the 30 had histories of pro-Communist leanings before induction. The great majority of the U.S. prisoners met the challenge well. They proved that the U.S. soldier fighting indoctrinated Communists is a pretty well indoctrinated fighting man himself...
Ulbricht took up Soviet citizenship, helped organize German P.W.s and captured officers (among them, Field Marshal Friedrich von Paulus) into the pro-Communist shock corps that was supposed to go home and paint Germany Red after V-day.

Siam, the monarchy of songwriting King Phumiphon Adundet, may be the Communists' next objective. Siam's population (17 million) is largely Thai, and the government is torn with dissension. On the Siamese side of the Laos border there are already some 50,000 pro-Communist Chinese and Vietnamese rebels, organized and trained by Chinese and Viet Minh agents. They sit astride the traditional opium-smuggling routes, and are believed to have accumulated stocks of modern arms. Field Marshal Phibun Songgram's border guards find it prudent not to trouble them. Former Premier Pridhi Panomyong has long been...
