ATHENS, Greece. - The entrance
into politics of Field Marshal Alex
ander Papagos has every one guess
ing. The 67-year-old hero of wars
against the Italians and the Commu-
mist guerrillas could we'll be the key
to Greece's political stability. His
appeal to the popular vote has been
hailed as one of the most important
events in Greek politics in recent
years.
But no one dares predict what his
strength will be in the new Parlia-
ment that assemblies in October.
Eighteen months ago, at the height
of his popularity after the defeat of
the guerrillaS, many observers be-
lieveG that the marshal could have
polled so to rs per cent of the pop
-ular vote.
1t is generally believed now that
his Greek Rally Party, under whose
banner he is running for a seat in
Parliament. may emerge with the
largest bloc of Deputies in the ESQ
man chamber in the September 9
elections. But there is room for
doubt that it can get an actual ma
jority
When he announced his candidacy,
he also announced he would not
accept union with any political
party. If any party wanted to come
under his leadership, he said it
would have to dissolve and permit
its members to flock to his banner.

was nothing else to do.
Supply Still Logs
installations of gas heat have been
restricted in some areas of the Mid
west for as long as two years. The
supply still hasn't caught up with the
demand. With the restrictions now
reaching into the East. it looks
as though it will be a long time be-
fore it does.
Behind all this Is the tremendous
growth in the use of natural gas in
the East. Broadening of the pipeline
network into the East-drawing on

step in developing his own distinctive
theory.
The report bluntly and passionately
called for party support of peasant
associations:

Every Chinese is free to pick his

revolution. Mao could even f1out

dustrial proletariat, in order to har-

heard by the Chinese party's leaders
and their Russian advisers.
Then. in 1927, the Kuomintang-
Communist alliance collapsed, and
Moscow gave the nod to a military

Yet here stands Mao, certainly the

In the last few years, since the oc-

the Red Army, an increasing number
of industrial workers and members
Of the professional classes have been
recruited by the party. But for two
decades, isolated in their back coun-
try areas, the Chinese Reds had no
choice but to base their strength
solidly on the compressed peasant
class.
OF course, the Chinese Communists
used an underpoSSeSSed body of city
dwellers as a jumping-o place for
their movement. And for the first
few years of Chinese communism,
the Reds were guided by Russian
Comintern agents who were inter-
ested in organizing a mass prole-

the paramount one for the party

A First-Rote Quiz Show Is Being Presented
And Only Gen. Eisenhower Knows the Answer
By J. A. o'Leory

The best political quiz show of the
year is under way out in Oregon,
and it may be months before all the
questions are answered.
It started when a group of Demo-
Gratis beat the Republicans to the
draw last week by being the first to
file the name of Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower as presidential candi-
date in the Oregon primary next
spring.
Senator Morse of Oregon, liberal
Republican and one of the earliest
Eisenhower adherents, made it clear
that this Democratic move will not
deterthose who agree with him from
going ahead with their plans to put
the Beaver State in the generals
camp at the Republican National
Convention also.
This is not the first evidence that
some factions in each major party
would like to coax the popular NATO
commander into becoming their
standard bearer in the 1852 race for
the White House. 1t would be rare
spectacle in American politics, how
ever, if the voters should find the
generals name on both ballots in
Oregons May primary.

Oregonians, taken by surprise, are

one need go only to a 1880 issue of
leading Russian magazine, which
reported Mao dead of tuberculosis
and ran laudatory obituary of the
late" comrade. And even the
omniscient Stain himself had little
information on what was going on
in Kiangsi.
Just Rumor
"It is said," Stain told party
session that same year, that a
soviet government already has been
created Tin China) I think that if
this is true there is nothing surpris-
ing in it,"
With an army to command, terri
tory to occupy and a peasantry to
tax, Mao extended his operations to
the point where he could extort
from the leaders in Shanghai Sus-
picious and reluctant eT post }dcto
approval Of his work. Shanghai
continued to pay lip service to the
Marxist ideal of proletarian leader
ship, but party headquarters already
had lost effective control of China's
industrial workers. And a factional
struggle had left the party outside
the soviet areas little more than a
f1ercely quarreling group of would
be leaders with no one to lead.
There were quarrels in the soviet
areas, too. but by 1881 Mao was boss
Or, more formally. chairman of the
Soviet provisional government. When
it served his purpose, he obeyed the
d1rectiveS of the Central Committee,
When it did not. he ignored them.
Moo's Invitation
Finally Mao invited" the Central
Committee to move from Shanghai to
his capital at Juichin. with the i'm
piled threat of cutting off their funds
if they did not accept the invitation.
They came. and from then on the
Communist Party of China was Mao S
party. He had established his leader
ship by dint of the real military and
financial power and mass peasant
support, which had been created by
his own successful strategy. II he was
and Moscow had little choice but to
accept him.
Like Tito. Mao has his own base
OF power independent of Russia. Like
Tito, he won his revolution in his
own way with minimum of help
from the Soviet Union. He has been
willing partner. not stooge, of the
Kretnlin since 1882. Moscow has
acquiesced in his heresy in China,
and apparently is willing to go along
with his contention that Maoism, not
Stalinism. is the proper revolutionary
strategy for all Asia.
The Tito blunder probably has
taught the Kremlin it's lesson. Mao
could be another Tito if pressed. He
is not likely to be pressed that hard.

suit from the action of those Lemo-
Gratis who exercised their right under
Oregon law to enter a mans name
in the State primary without his con-
sent. by getting 1000 signatures on
petition.
Just because the name Eisenhower
is adopted by each party. it does not
follow that the name will go on both
ballots. There are two things that
could eliminate the generals name
at any time.
/. Gen. Eisenhower, who up to now
has carefully avoided any political
pronouncement. could declare his
party affiliation and end the quiz
show abruptly.
2. Gen. EisenhoWer's Republican
admirers in Oregon could, and may,
decide for strategic reasons to put up
a favorite son in the State primary,
who would throw the delegation to
Gen. Eisenhower after getting Ore
CONS complimentary vote on the first
ballot at the Republican National
Convention. If this course is decided
on, the Morse forces may file the
Senator's name in the primary,
knowing that he would be for Gen.
Eisenhower at the convention.
Morse Not on Make
Senator Morse is not seeking the
role of favorite son. But there is
good reason to believe he would not
oppose move of that kind by his
friends if it would help Gen. Eisen-
hover in the final showdown.
Present indications are they will
follow whichever is considered most
likely to give Gen. Eisenhower the
edge over Senator Taft of Ohio. for
mer Gov. StaSsen of Minnesota or
Gov. Warren of California-all of
whom have supporters among Oregon

If the Republicans for Eisenhower
decide to file the generals own name
instead of that of favorite son, an

To most of the worlds Commu-
nists, Comrade Stain is the fountain
head of all knowledge-political. sci
entific and esthetic. And to listen
to Moscow, one of Stalin's major
achievements is the success of the
Chinese revolution.
But that's not the way the Chinese
hear it.
In fact. when the Peoples Liberia
tion Army celebrated its oath ami
verSary recently, 18 slogans were off,
cially adopted for the occaSion-and
not one even mentioned the great

place usually reserved in Mafxist
posters for that of the Russian boss.

was-to put it flatly-ignored when
the slogans were approved.
AS on all such occasions there were
speeches. Gen. Chu referred to "the
sympathetic support of our Soviet
friends" Several generals conceded
that perhaps in the field of modern
warfare there was something to be
learned from RusSia's advanced mill
tary science"
Mao Is Boss
But none of the speakers left any
doubt that Comrade Mao, not Com
rade Stain, made the Chinese revo-,
luton what it is, thanks to astute
Interpretation of MarxiSt-LeniniSm
and Shrewd generalship in the field.
Stain, of course. has interpreted
Lenin's version of Marx pretty freely
over the years. Comrade Tito, the
Kremlin'S greatest living mistake,
claims to be a better feminist than
Stain. And both affect high military
rank. But the idea of any other
European Communist leader setting
himself up IN business as an mde-
pendent soldier-theoretician seems
almost fantastic.
How does Mao get away with it?
Is he likely to become another Tito,
as the YugoslavS. who arc experts in
Titotism, seem to think?
There have been many recent
references to the theological gulf be-
tween Stain and Mao. But though
the reports are new. the differences
go back quarter of a century, and
Mao was once dropped from the
Chinese politburo for pressing the
very strategy that ultimately made
him the unquestioned ruler of Red
China.
The old disagreement has been
carefully traced ny Prof. Benjamin I.
Schwartz of Harvard in a new book,
