Former Bandits Rule
Tsingtao, Won't Let
Reds Ease Them Out
By Wayne Richardson
Associated Press Foreign Correspondent

TOKYO, Jan. 27.-Tough for
mer Chinese bandits who say
they are Communists rule Using
tao so rigidly that even old-line
Reds have trouble with them.
They were bandits for years.
They roamed the rich countryside
in Shantung Province. of which
Tsingtao is a part.
When the Chinese Nationalist
fled from that North China port
two months before they were ex-
pected to leave, the former ban
dts moved in. They grabbed
power and SO far have hung on
to it.
Like, Fat Jobs.
I saw them at the former
American naval base while I was
in Tsingtao with the Flying Ar
row, which left there this week.
was the only correspondent
aboard that American freighter,
which was shelled by the Nation
alists and put in to Tsingtao to
unload cargo destined for Shang-
hal.
The former bandits say they are
Communists and follow the party
line. But they also like the fat
jobs they inherited. and party reg
ulars have found it difficult to re-
move them.
Chinese Communist leaders
from outside arrived after the
former bandits took over. The
outsiders have run into trouble
giving orders to these provincial
rulers. >.
Plan "te Liberate World"
The former bandits leave no
doubt about what they say is
their Communist mission" They
regard themselves as allied with
Russia. There are pictures of
Stain everywhere.
One such official told a Euro
pean missionary: 1--WE intend to
liberate the world. Don't you
worry. Well liberate your coun-
try too"
The missionary. who has lived
most of his life in China, said he
replied:
I'm my country, practically
every family has a small automo-
bile, q nice home, reasonable
wages and other comforts. Why
cannot you first raise the standard
Of living in China to match that?"
He said the official shrugged
and replied: 1--WE will liberate your
country anyway"
