Russia's relations with China
was one reason why Khru-
shchev determined to de-
nounce Stain. First, Of
course. was the massive dis
enchantment of the Russian
people. But second was Khru-
shchev's knowledge that
China was one Of his major
tasks. He wanted to make
sure Mao understood his
feelings.
1t was also Mao who had
adopted the collective lead
ership" plan which Khru-
shchev and his associates
initiated.
Khrushchev needed the
prestige of the United States
visit. The Chinese made
errors in Tibet to take some
of the heat off the Russian
ruthleSsness in Hungary. But
it should not be overlooked
that the successes in Asia
have been largely Chinese.
They proflted by Wet Nam.
They gained in Tibet. They

Mao may be determined, as
always, to go his own way
regardless Of Russia. Here is
the great mystery-What are
the real relations between
Russia and China?

Few people are noticing it
largely because it's difficult
for them to get the facts
but the taxpayers Of Amer
lea are suffering a huge A.
nancial loss. More of their
tax money will have to be
used as a result of the failure
of the politicians of the
Democratic Party in the last
session of Congress to permit
the Government to sell its
long-term bonds at a higher
rate Of interest than Az per
cent.
This is one of the catas-
trophies of the century. Moth
ing like it has ever been
perpetrated before by the
politicians of either party.
It's a deliberate interference
with the financing of the ma
tional debt by the Govern
ment.
The Democratic National
Committee, anticipating the
criticism that is bound to en-
sue, has issued through it's
advisory committee a state
ment declaring that the
latest offering by the Treas
ury of 4-year-l0-month notes
at an interest rate of 5 per
cent is a bankers bonus"
and that the notes would be
bought largely by bankers.
But it turns out that the
general public and buyers
outside financial houses came
flocking to the Treasury to
buy the new issue. The nom
institutional buyers gobbled
up the bonds and asked for
more. They recognized that
it was a good purchase, and
lots of the buyers sold other
things in order to obtain the
money to get in on a good
investment.
But the tragic fact is that
the Treasury could have sold
a 10-year bond for a Az per
cent interest rate if the Con-
gress had only authorized the
Treasury to use its own dis
erection in meeting the mar
ket."

Stains Treatment Of Mao Tse-tung
Held Possible Bar to Co-operotion

Chang. He, in turn, began
to arrest and kill known
Communists, being aware
the power struggle was on.
Mao, Chou En-lai and others
had to flee as the Chang
revolution of 1927 got under
way. Macs wife was among
those executed.
8. Mao refused to break
openly with Moscow. but
went stubbornly on his own
way. He organized peasants
and began what was called
the Autumn Harvest Upris-
ing. 1t failed. Most Of the
peasants were killed. Mao
was captured but escaped.
4. For this Mao was ex-
PEELED from the politburo
of the Chinese Communist
Party. Weeks later, Chou En-
lai determined to follow Mao
rather than MoScow'S direc-
tives. The famous break-out
by Macs troops and the Long
March, which took more than
a year and covered almost
5000 miles, was soon made
necessary by Comintern er-
rorS. In l943 Mao said pub
licly: Since 1885 the Chi
nese Communists have re-
ceived no assistance or adj
vice from the Comintern."
S. In 1915, according to an
entry in Harry Hopkins

not regard the Chinese Com
muniSt Party as a serious
factor. We recognize only
Chang Kai-shek." Stain had
Molotov sign the 1945 treaty
with Chang Kai-Shek's gov
eminent.
These are the major err
rors. There were smaller ones.

ic enough to know that with

In an address prepared for
delivery before the National
Press Club, Mr.. Lodge warned
that many of the nations on
the sidelines "in Asia, Africa
and the Middle East do not by
any means take it for granted
that the Western style Of free
dom is better than commu-
nlsm."
He said there can be no
doubt that the free world is in
competition with a militant
Communist leadership, but he
added:
If we do what we are ca
pable of doing, the Soviet
Union will never surpass u.s."
Room for Many Systems
Mr.. Lodge asserted that
there is not going to be any
triumph in which one will
reach it's goal by driving the

For perhaps a better
understanding of the I'M
mentioned obstacles in the
way of Nikita Khrushchev's
play for Red China's cooper
ration. we can take a look at
an old box score.
We need only to look at
the name of j. Stain and
the total in what Mao Tse-
tung regards as the error
column.
Mao Tse-tung was a revo-
lutionist in 19l1-six years
before the Marxists in Rus
STA were able to get going.
Yet Stain treated him with
contempt and, for more than
20 years, attempted to frus-
trate Mao.
l. In 1923 Mao publicly
was subjected to a severe
reprimand by Stain for po-
litical deviation. This is the
sin for which thousands in
Russia and China had paid
with their lives. The Soviets
then had agents in China.
They insisted the revolution
begin in the cities with the
workers leading it. Mao re-
fused. 1t must, he said, begin
with the peasants. Once they
were in revolt the cities, he
said, would dry up and fall
off the vine.
2. In 1927 Stain, working
through Comintern agents
Roy and Borodin, ordered
them to ignore Chang Kali
shek, who was then Coop
Grating with Moscow, and
raise an all Communist force
to begin revolution. Mao was
regarded as an unstable force
1t is on record that Roy des-
cribed Mao as a saboteur of
revolution and an "opportu-
mist" who dreamed of setting
up republics in the wilder
ness" Stains order was
shown to Chiang's Gen.

Democrats Failure on Interest Rates
Seen Causing u. S. Huge Losses

~
done by their laundering in
reference with the Treasury
is to compel the Government
to concentrate on issues OF
securities that are to mature
in less than five years. This
means the Government will
have to pay higher and high
err rates to refund or refi-
nance in the next IL months
some $76 billion Of short-term
securities outstanding.
Certainly, this is going to
cost the Government more
and more. The Democratic
Party's advisory committee is
right in claiming that this
will in turn influence other
interest rates on house pur-
chases and other long-term
buying. But this wouldn't
have happened If the Gov
eminent had been allowed to
finance its debt in a natural
way.
Actually. the Treasury is
being forced to interfere in
the realm of borrowing
where consumers and small
businessmen need credit. The
Government thus absorbs
short term funds that other
wise would be available to
private borrowers at lower
interest rates.
The handling Of the Treas
ury's problem of refunding
indebtedness as it natures is
a stupendouS task and al
ways requires disinterested
and nonpolitical persons to
determine the prices at which
securities will be offered so
as to attract buyers. But
their hands are tied now.
The moment the politicians
step in, the risks can be great
and the consequences to the
credit structure can be
serious.
If the Congress had not
yielded to the unSound doc
trineS of a few of its low
interest zealots, who thought
they saw an advantageous
issue politically in putting a
ceiling on interest rates. the

The outlook for a balanced
budget in 1860 is not encour-
aging, Deputy Budget Director
Elmer B. Stats told Congress
today in defending President
Eisenhower's veto of the omni-
bus housing bill.
Appearing as the first witness
at new Senate housing hear
ings, Mr.. Stats pointed out
that the Government just fin
ished fiscal year 1859 with a
record peacetime deficit of $12.5
billion, and that Congress has
not enacted new postal and gas
tax revenues on which the ad-
ministration was counting for a
balanced budget in 1860.
Mr.. Stats statement con-
trasted sharply with Mr.. Eisen-
hower's comment earlier this
week that he is increasingly
confident that the Government
will end this fiscal year with
a surplus.
Cost Increases Cited
Mr.. Stats testified before a
Senate banking subcommittee
that there have been sharp in
creaseS in the cost of things the
Government buys and recently
an increase in the cost Of
money, creating the need for a
higher interest rate. He said

warning tickets would be is
sued instead.
This move has been under
study since the House District
Committee announced last
month that its staff will look
into the city's traffic ticketing
practices. This probe was to
concentrate on the unusually
large" number of tickets being
issued for minor violations.
At that time, Commissioner
Robert E. Mclaughlin said he
felt that tickets. which are
enforced by arrest warrants,
should not be given to some
one who can not be arrested.

The witness said that, while
the immediate cost of the We
toed housing bill is not large in
relation to some programs, it

The testimony developed that
the administration figured the

of $40 million more than the
budget estimates, while Demo-
Gratis in Congress estimate it
would have added only $24 mil
lion to the budget.
