Justice In Communist China

Things seemed to be going
rather we'll for Chen and he
expected a minimum sentence
He hadn't actually sold Spring
Orchid, after all; he'd made
public confession of his guilt,
and most important. the court
seemed satisfied that he was a
loyal comrade.
But Chen's relief was pre-
mature. When the trial
seemed nearly over, a young
farmer in the audience sud-
denly sprang to his feet and
shouted that the accused was
not a good Communist, that
he'd made several dangerous
excursions outside the party
lines. Other longtime foes of
Chen were quick to support
his accuSer'S claims and add
others. In the royal battle
that followed, the case of
Spring Orchid was almost for
gotten. More serious political
matters claimed the attention
Of the court.
Much to the glee of Chen's
enemies, the hapless farmer
was soon convicted of the
second, the important, charge
as well. But whether or not
Chen was really a good Com
muniSt, the West will never
know. Neither are the terms
Of his punishment known.
The English photographer
who was somehow permitted
to take these pictures in
China and get them out to
London never got out himself
with the rest of the story.
His fate, like that of Chen
Fung Nee, is still a matter of
gloomy conjecture.

pies Courts, even long-stand-
ing feuds may be easily
avenged If a man can prove
that his foe or rival has been
stepping over the party line.
These pictures of the trial Of
a Chinese farmer, Chen Fung
Nee, provide a grim illustra-
ton Of what may befall a man
unlucky enough to have an
enemy in the court.
Charged with trying to sell
a young girl in his care,
Spring Orchid, into bondage
to a neighboring farmer,
Chen was tried in his village
of Three Harmonies In the
Province Of Honan. The set
ting was familiar to the SIM
pie townSfolk who crowded
the open square to see the
show. The mediators Judges,
jurors, and good Communists)
were arranged in a Semicircle
in the center of the crowd.
Spring Orchid, chief witness
for the people, sat on a crude
wooden stool, close to the
court announcer who repeats
all the testimony for the
benefit OF the audience.
The trial opened smoothly.
following the prescribed rou-
tine. After hearing the
charges against him, Chen
stood up. read a previously
prepared confession, and en-
tered his plea-gulty. That
much was never in doubt.
His friends, however, were
willing to testify that Chen
was a good man, Of sterling
character. and an excellent
Communist Of long standing.

PresbYierion Church Highlighis
Numerous During Past Two Years

Improvements of the church
plant and a tremendous increase
In membership have highlighted
the growth Of the Tabor City Pres
byterian Church during the past
two years.
Organized in 1912 with a men,
bership of 26, the local church did
not have a resident pastor until
1882 when Rev. Fletcher c. Hut
cheson accepted the call to be-
come pastor. 1t was during that
year the church manse was built.
Prior to the year Rev. Hutche-
son became resident pastor, the
church was supplied by the White
vile Presbyterian preacher and
student pastors.

Ter 10 okner Presbyterian churcheS
, as they moved to distant towns.
A strong organization within the
church that carries on many acti-
vities throughout the year in their
monthly meetings is the Women of
the Church. Each woman member
belongs to this group and joins in
the Bible study and instructive
programs it has each month as
well as the projects it carries out
during the year.
In the last two years, this group
has helped the pastor organize
and carry out week day Bible
Class for the children of the
church. Too, they have helped
carry out an intensive Bible School
each summer.
One of their noteworthy projects
has been undertaken recently-the
acquiring of a church library of
religious books for children and
young people.
AT the present time, the Women
of the Church are responsible for
ordering a pulpit rail and a read
ing stand for the pulpit which will
complete the furnishing of the pull
pit.
Probably, the most outstanding
physical improvement made at the
local church was the installation
of new pews. These pews were a
memorial gift in memory of the
late Mrs. Anne Whitney Harrel-
son. This gift of beauty aroused
the interest of the organization
and improvements were made
when new carpet was laid and a
heating plant installed.
A group responsible for the up-
keep and physical needs of the
church is the Board of Deacons
This board has been enlarged from
three to five members and they
ire credited with making possible
me many physical improvements.
This past year, the Prayer Meet

Plans for the remainder of tho

Actually, Rev. Hutchinson was
not a newcomer to Tabor City.
He served as a student pastor dur
ing the Winter of 1951-1952 while
still enrolled at Union Theological
Seminary in Richmond, Virginia.
Once the church began regular
services, the total program of the
church began to move forward. In
the past two years, the Sunday
School membership has more
than doubled, and the average at
tendance at the school has increase
ed about four times. Church MEM

Post Office Loses
On Parcel Post
Editor Of The Herald:

Editor Of ghe Herald;
l have jusE recently had an OPP
portunity to review the editorial
that appeared in your January 8
ISSUE under the subject Com
munication' Prime Purpose
We are particularly concerned
with the ef,croachment Of the.
Government-operated parcel post
system In the field Of private
enterprise aad I am pleased to
observe yous very pointed COM
ment on the injustice OF this COM
petition
When the, parcel post system
was created the Congress intend
ed that it should not unnecessar-
lily compete with private enter
prise and it also provided that
the rates should be maintained at
a level adequate to insure
revenues which would fully cover
the cost OF its operation. AS you
know, these principles were de-
parted from very soon after the
parcel post system was inaug-
urated and the taxpayer has been
called upon to carry q heavy
burden Since the cost ascertain
ment system was established in
1926. the Post Office Department
has reported losses exceeding q
billion dollars. more than half OF
which occurred in the last five
1 years. -..
The reported losses are under
stated in that no allowance Is
made for costs attributable to the
handling OF parcel post which are
paid from appropriations made tc
other Government departments
and these additional costs have
I been conservatively estimated a.
not less than SAB 100000 per year
Under the circumstances. there
is a very definite need TO get the
facts before the public SO tina
every taxpayer may know abou
the contribution he is makint
primarily for the benefit Of large
commercial users Of the parce
post system
Your comments are to the poin
and should be very helpful il
giving your readers q bette
understanding Of this very seriou
problem and you are to be con
graduated for bringing the sub
ject out into the open,
Yours very truly,

Letters To Editor.
Editor Farmville Herald,

Editor Farmville Herald,
II seems. from what your Jackie
writes.
She does not like cigars;
She says aroma in their smoke
Her pleasure often mars.
Cigars that men so much enjoy.
To Jackie. give offense;
Because they are obnoxious to
Her oliactory sense.
When smelling smoke from a
cigar,
Her nose begins to witch.
And in the muscles of her throat
She gets coughing itch.
She says cigars are bad enough
When air with smoke they fill,
But odors from their butts on
trays.
To her. are worser still.
Old cigar butts. your Jackie
claims.
Are infuriating:
And agravations that they cause
Are facilitating.
She does not mind q man who
smokes
A cigarette or pipe.
But when it comes to our cigars
Your Jackie sure can grippe
That Jackie SO abhors cigars
Seems somewhat sad to me;
I'm sorry that she does have this
Idiosyncrasy.
What Jackie writes about cigars
To me, is quite joke
For a woman's just q woman
But a good cigars smoke.
Cigarphilebly yours,

Color TV Coming

television by 1856.
These predictions are interesting al
though it must be kept in mind that pro-
ducers of black and white sets are natur.
ally eager to sell black and white sets to-
day, by pointing out the prospective DELAYS
in the color field Du Mont's estimate is
probably more accurate than estimates
made by those not in the trade itself, al
though we are inclined to believe that new
developments may speed up the introduce
ton of color TN. If new DEVELOPMENTS do
not lower the cost of color production this
year or early in 1865, and if production
does not exceed expectations in the next
fifteen months, then we agree with Mr..
Du Mont that color sales will not consti
tute any significant volume.
1t must also be realized that few peo-
pie will be content with twelve-and-a half
inch screens, especially since 21-inch and
even 24-lnch screens are now very popular.
Thus, while the average American con-
sumner might seek color televison in 1854.
1t appears that it will be 1855 at least be-
fore he has much opportunity to buy larg-
er screens, and maybe 1856 before he can
buy them at reasonable prices II
