journalists who have Travelled
in China recently.
These sources must be con-
sidered in terms of their pos
sible bias, and their informa-
ton must be judged for plaus-
Utility and consistency.
What follows is a Judgment
on this basis of China's prob
lens and prospects.
AS for starvation, 1t does not
exist on any large scale In
China today. There is and al
ways has been considerable
hunger and some malnutrition.
Imports Of more than 10 mil
lion tons Of grain from nom
Communist countries in tn e
last two years have been q
heavy financial burden on the
government. But the reports of
mass starvation In recent years
do not stand up as showing a
repetition of the famines that
have plagued China from time
to time through the centuries.
One of the sources of starva-
ton reports is Father Luis
Ruiz, a Jesuit priest at the
Portuguese colony of Macao, a
peninsula and some islands on
the China coast near Hons
Kong. He greets several hun
dred refugees a month, feeding
and housing those who cannot
arrange to be struggled to Hong
Kong. He hears their stories and
sees their hunger and judges
that starvation in China Is
widespread.
He showed the Post-Dispatch
team five farmers in their
early 20s, who had arrived from
China six days earlier. They
were bright-eyed, strong mus
cled and huskily built.
They we're starving when
they arrived" said Father Ruiz.
I'VE fattened them up"
A British physician, after ex-
amining a group of 200 newly
arrived refugees. observed that
they were hungry from a five
day walk to feedom but con-
.cluded: These people are not
suffering from malnutrition."
He explained that malnutri-
ton has specific symptoms
swollen stomachs and ankles
and loss of hair. He said he saw
no such signs.
The Economic Breakdown
China'S economic breakdown,
which began in 1858, Is more
complicated than the simple ex-
PLANTATION that the people are
starving and resentful.
The trouble came after a first
five-year plan, 1858 through
1857, tn at American experts
concede worked out rather well.
Agricultural goals were modest,
providing for a slight increase
over population growth, and
considerable progress was made
In industrialization.
Suddenly, in 1857 and 1858,
the Chinese stepped up the
pace enormously In the great
leap forward" They set produc-
ton goals that seemed astro-
nomical and consolidated col
lective farms into rural COM
munes Of 5000 to 1000 persons.
City communes engaged in
such projects as building the
famous backyard iron hearths,
later dismantled and converted
into larger and more practical
blast furnaces.
American observers say t h e
Chinese seemed to have gone
mad, through a combination Of
national cockiness and an I'M
realistic ambition to overtake
the Soviet Union and the
United States as a great in
dustrial power.

Much American thinking
about Communist China is
based on myths repeated SC
often that they have beer
widely accepted as true.
These are:
That the Chinese are suffer-
ing from widespread starvation
That Chinese induStrializa-
ton failed because Communist
organization, particularly in the
communes, was ruthless anc
unpopular.
That dissatisfaction is SC
general that internal revolt Is
q very real possibility anc
could be touched off by an In
vasion from Formosa.
These beliefs, together with
China's bitter split with the So
Wet Union over strategy against
the West, give basis for a feel
ing that the problem Of China
distasteful as 1t is just now
will eventually solve itself.
A further easy assumption
holds that when the Commu-
mist regime finally collapses the
Chinese people will return with
relief to their traditional friend
ship with the United States.
Find Much Ignorance
Information gathered by a
Post Dispatch reporter photog-
rapher team touring the SOUTH
ern rim Of China indicates that
these widely held beliefs and
expectations are false, q COM
pound Of exaggeration, wishful
thinking, misinformation and
ignorance about what is going
on in the biggest country In the
world with its 700 million pop
ulation.
The ignorance is due mainly
TO an artificial wall erected be-
tween the United States and
China after the Chinese Com
munists gained control in 1919
Both countries work at keeping
the wall nearly impenetrable
With few exceptions, both stand
in the way of Americans who
would like to visit the Chinese
mainland.
Almost all American pass
ports bear the printed prohibi-
ton. This passport is not
valid for travel to or in Com
munist controlled portions of
China, Korea. Wet Nam or to
or In Albania.
rev Exceptions
The principal exceptions are
for "a news organizations that
the State Department has
judged to be qualified and six
persons who have visited rela-
tives held prisoner In China.
Edgar Snow, one Of the few
Americans to obtain a visa to
enter Communist China, visited
the county in 1860 and related
his experiences In the book
THE Other Side of the River, F."
published last November. He
said the State Department au-
thorized the trip only after he
became o correspondent for
Look magazine, on the approved
list. China on the other hand,
admitted him only as a writer
and not as a news correspond
ent.
Barred from entering the
country. an American investiga-
tor must resort to the data and
analyses Of the many China
watchers operating in Hong
Kong. Japan, Burma, India and
other countries around China's
periphery. Some of these OBJ
servers are working for the
United States or other govern
mentS. some are supported by
churches or other private In
stitutions. some are self
supported through the sale OF
newsletters or intelligence re-
ports.
Other Sources
Another source is the testi-
mony Of refugees who come out
Of China. Still another is the
testimony of non American
businessmen, diplomats and

Chiang's threats of an inva-
sion, together with small-scale
landing attempts last summer,
mean to many Chinese that
the only alternative to Com
munist rule is a new dictator
ship under Chang.
In the eyes Of China's lead
ers, the United States is an
implacable enemy that pushed
up to China's border in the
Korean war and continues now
to encourage Chang In his
dream Of returning victorious
ly to the mainland. Some quail
flied Western observers in
China have found this view
widely held among the Chinese
people.

NEW YORK, Nov. Is (AP)
- After whipping Wayne
Thornton in a bruising 10
rounder last night Argentine
Gregorio Peralta probably will
have to beat the Californian
again to get a title fight with
ht-heavyweight Champion
Willie Pastrano.
The 28-year-old heavyweight
king of Argentina chopped and
poked his way to a split deci-
sion over the light heavyweight
contender from Fresno in a
television thriller at Madison
Square Garden.
Then Harry Markson, di-
rector of boxing at the Gar
den, offered the two a rematch
for December Is. Both Peralta
and Thornton agreed, provided
there is a written contract
guaranteeing the winner a title
fight with PaStrano.
Peralta was an lis favorite
as he ran his unbeaten streak
to A, including two draws. The
dark-haired gaucho has lost
only one, a knockout by Peru
Wan Mauro Nina in his first
pro start.
With a big clique of Ar
gentines in the slim crowd of
about 1000 cheering him on,
Peralta broke up a tight battle,
fought mostly at close range,
by sweeping the fifth, sixth,
and seventh rounds. He was
cut over the left eye in the
eighth and Thornton won that
one big to narrow the margin.
