Mao Directed Revolution.

During 1948, the Communist
occupied areas we're steadily wild
Iening. The central politburo was
busy in Shihchiachuang with con-
ferences to cope with the new de-
|velopmentS and to hasten the
consummation Of the revolution.
Presided over by Mao Tze-tung
personally, the conference adopted
the overall program and princi-
piles of underground struggle.
On the political side, many
secret small groups were organ
lied to foment peoples rebellion
in the Kuomintang areas, and
also to incite strikes and other
"anti-oppression" and "resist-the-
rental" actions. At Nanking,
Shanghai, Hong Kong and other
industrial centers. agitation corps
were quickly formed to infiltrate
all parties. Special divisive tactics
were used against the larger
Organization of the Kuomintang;
it's activities everywhere infiltrated
and penetrated by a hard core
of Communist Party workers and
policies.
On the military side, the task
was to organize guerrilla corps
and peoples armed rebellions so
as to scatter the Kuomintang mill
tary forces and to win over the
common soldier in the Kuomin-
tang army. To strengthen disci-
Ipline and unif1cation Of thought
in the army, it was decided to In
crease the authority of the party
Representatives at the various mill
Itary levels. The independent di-
receives and military orders given
by these party representatives in
the various war areas and army
levels were absolute. All orders
and directives had to be counter
signed by the party representatives.
In case Of emergency, all party
representatives we're empowered to
remove from their posts and detain
the variou army commanders and
officers, such action also to be op-
posed on pain of death.
Husband Recalled Suddenly.
In May of 1948 Lin Wen, my
husband, was abruptly recalled to
Shihchiachuang from the North
east. He was arrested by the
Communist Secret Police upon ar
rival. From various sources I
soon found out that the charges
against him were having re-
ceived imperialist education" and
having been supported by reac-
tionary landlord and oppressors. I"

"Comrade Tao! May I drink a

his despicable attack.

declined with a straight face.
I contemplated in my mind
what would be the best way of
getting out Of this hell.
"PNase forgive me, I have a
headache all of a sudden. I hope
you won't mind my leaving little
early" Without waiting for their
reply, pushed away my chair and
started to leave.
May I offer my services to see
Comrade Tao home!" Liu said,
turning around to reach for his
visored cap.
I was falling into their trap.
THANK you! Thank you! I'm
going now." I said hurriedly, my
feet already outside the door.
"Comrade Tao! One minute,
please. I'll keep you company"
Liu Shao-chi had caught up with
me.
Thank you. I need to quiet
down little by myself. So please
go!" I said coldly.
why is it that you are always
avoiding me? I can no longer
conceal the words that are in my
heart. I love you deeply. Ever

have left an indelible impression

angrily.

around me and locked me in an

Bomber Drops Flowers
On Scared Hiroshima
BY the Associated Press

HIROSHIMA, Japan, Aug. g.
Three veterans of the Korean war
manned a United States bomber
which dropped flowers on Hiro-
shima today-the sixth anniver-
sary of the first atomic bombing
The BPS approached the city
from the south. 1t travelled the
same route as the B-29 Superfort
which dropped the atom bomb
over Hiroshima, August 6, 1945,
in the closing days Of the Pacific
war. y
Pilot of the smaller, flower
bearing bomber was Capt. Ernest
James, Omaha, Neb., a veteran OF
SO missions in Korea. Also in the
crew were Sergt. Gabriel D. Verdi,
New York, and John w. Harris,
Rochester, N. Y. Sergt. Verdi has
flown go missions and Harris Ct
They are gunners.
The B-26 dropped two laurel
wreaths-both bought by person
mel of the Sd Bomb Wing based in
Southern Japan. The unit also
provided the plane.
The wreaths fluttered to earth
near the ruins of the round doomed
japanese industrial promotion
hall-in the center of the atomic
blast.
AS the bomber disappeared in
the clouds, the rebuilt city began
a solemn, daylong observance of
the fateful day. Shrines and
churches were crowded with Jap
anese paying homage to the esti-
mated 100000, who died in the ex-
plosion.

Hearing Plea Charges
Secrecy in Selection
OF Burke Airport Site

A petition for public hearing
on the controversial Burke airport
site was in the hands of Commerce
Secretary Sawyer today.
The petition, prepared for the
Burke Airport Relocation Com
mittee by it's attorney, Charles F.
O'Neall, charges the Civil Aero
nautics Administration with undue
haste and too much secrecy" in
pushing the Burke proposal to
completion.
BY CAA's selection, the supple
mental airport would be in Fairfax
County. about II miles southwest
of Washington, five miles west Of
Shirley highway.
The committees request asked
the hearing ito obtain complete
and accurate information on the
controversy"

the GAA site selection has been
Shrouded in secrecy" ut is at
least reasonable to believe that
the CLOAK of secrecy was employed
to preclude public scrutiny Of the
reasons behind the selection
made" the petition said.
The committee, formed within
48 hours after the site selection
was announced. is opposed not
only to the Burke location but to
any in Fairfax County. The Board
of Supervisors is on record to that
effect.

Civil Service Committee. The bill
would give Is to Is days annual
leave to both classified and pos
tai workers.
The conferees added that the
leave issue should be handled in
regular legislative fashion, rather
than as a rider to an appropria-
lions bill.
The conferees on the Treasury
Post Office Committee are diff
Iferent from those on the indie
pendent offices bill, but the de-
cision to drop the postal rider
in favor of the graduated-leave
bill may influence the independent
Offices conferees.
The Independent Offices measure
has been sent back to conference
by the House and the leave rider
conceivably could be dropped.
Even if the conferees go ahead
and retain the 20-day rider and
this is sustained by Congress, the
chances are fairly good that the
Igraduated-leave bill will be ap-
proved later in the session through
Legislative channels and conse-
quently supercede it as law.

which sent the measure to con-
ference. However. Chairman Muir

Committee charged that the Sen

ferees.

colleagues on the committee pre-
dict that he will change his mind

would almost automatically in

press for action on the graduated
leave measure. Until the 20-day
postal rider was rejected, the
postal unions did not have too
much interest in the graduated
leave bill. But now they realize
it's the only chance they have of
increasing postal workers leave.
The graduated. leave bill would
give Is days to classified and
postal workers with less than two
years of service, 20 days to those
with 2 to Is years. and Is days
for those with more than Is years
service. Military service would be
counted as part of an employees
Government service.
Also, the present ban against
employees accommodating any more
annual leave would be lifted. EN-
ployes now are required to use all
of their leave for the calendar
year by July /, 1852. or forfeit 1t.
In addition, the 15-day sick
leave benefits would be reduced to
IS days, but Jffsetting this is the
provision that would allow en-
ployes to accumulate all the sick
leave that is due them. At pres
ent. employees can't accumulate
more than 80 days.
Most Government employ e
groups favor the graduated leave
plan over the Douglas 20-day
rider.

Senate Soon 10 Get Bill
Separating Airmail
Pay From Subsidies
By The Associated Press

Two Senators of opposing par
ties agreed today that bill sep
arating airmail pay from airline
subsidies will soon reach the SEN
ate, possibly this week.
Chairman Edwin C. johnson of
the Senate Interstate Commerce
Committee told a reporter he
hopes ito get agreement on this
after more than 20 days of hear
ings."
The legislation is certain toI
save the Post Office Department
millions of dollars a year and cut
down the annual postal deficits"
he said.
Senator KEN, Republican, of
Missouri said he regards the sep
aration of compensation for carry
ing the mail from subsidies las al
constructive thing"
Existing law requires that the
Government - actually the Post
Office Department-pay certified
airmail contract carriers enough
to keep the commercial airline
operating without a loss.
For years there has been much
talk in Congress about revising
this provision so actual mail
carrying costs are separate from
the subsidies, first granted in the
pioneering era of commercial
aviation.
Senator johnson said bills be-
fore his committee would sep
arate these cost-plus requirements
so that the Post Office would pay
only actual mail compensation"
Any subsidies. to be determined by
the Civil Aeronautics Board, would
be paid by other Government
agencies.
In the past. holders of the air.
mail certificates have vigorously
opposed separate bills.
