Page 4 GREELEY TRIBUNE Friday, May 30, 1969 Mao's China Utopia Betrayed by Harsh Realities By STANLEY KARNOW Washington Port HONG KONG Even the most conservative American would be horrified if President Nixon ordered the National Guard and labor vigilantes into U.S. colleges to beat or brainwash unruly students, or deport them to northern Alaska. Yet this is almost exactly what is currently happening in Red China despite Peking's pretensions to running the world's only authentic communist state. Thus there is something ludicrous in the spectacle of radical American and European youths sporting Mao Tse-Tung badges and spouting Mao's aphorisms while young Chinese are being repressed for similarly seeking their emancipation. And there is something equally paradoxical in Peking's exhortations to "progressive" western youths to trigger upheavals while their Chinese subdued for displaying the mildest signs of independence.

In South China last year, thousands of youths were killed by consequence, neglected, peas ants grew to envy the relative comforts enjoyed by urban dwellers. Under the communists, too there arose an establishment ol party and government function aries whose patronizing view the masses resembled the haughty attitude of China's ancient mandarins towards the population.

Tribune Editorial Page Opinion Analysis Interpretation existed among Chinese youths ever since the communists took over the country two decades igo. As Mao himself has repeatedly stressed, the communist victory in 1949 did not automatically turn China into a Marxist Nirvana. On the contrary, communist polices and practices led to serious class and regional difference in Chinese society. For one thing, the rapid industrialization of China by the communists in their first 10 years of rule sharpened the traditional contrasts between the cities and the countryside. As a ers and peasants resented the privileged children of officials who in turn resigned recurrent campaigns to homogenize them into the great unwashed "proletariat." In addition, youths of all social backgrounds were frustrated by the shortage of career prospects in a structure dominated by veteran apparatchiks who clung to their jobs like limpets.

In 1965, as he plotted to uproot the party and state machinery he believed had double- crossed him, Mao recognized the explosive potential of NOW WE'LL SEE HOW THE DELIVERY IS! Pause and Ponder He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. --Psalms 121:3 They Have Not Yet Died in Vain It is always a time of deep sadness when the rndar.coly sound of Taps drifts across the cemeteries of America on Memorial Day. This year, the occasion was once again even more touched with sadness because the nation is still caught up in a war halfway around the world. One thing-, above all, must be said again on this Memorial Day: We do greatest honor to those who have died in battle, and to those who will yet die before this war is ended, not, by fine, oratory but by determination to assure that their sacrifices shall not have been in vain. There are many reasons as one loots at the world and our own nation to feel that the sacrifices have been in vain.

Fighting still rages in Vietnam and in the Mideast. The Russian suppression of Czechoslovakia another stark reminder of totalitarianism. Disunity threatens our own nation as race problems remain unsolved, violence and turmoil plagues cities and campuses and crime rates soar. These events are discouraging, indeed. Rut we would not conclude because of them that the nation bus failed those men to whom it has paid tribute this 1 China's pent-up younger generation.

When he uncorked them, therefore, the Red Guard burst forth wildly in what was essentially an expression of unpr-e cedented freedom. Brimming with Idealism, a girl Red Guard told a European writer visiting the South China city of Canton In early 1967 that the cultural revolution was a "feast of criticism." Young Chinese, she explained, could now "write about things that have been forbidden she went on, and overthrow anyone who failed to measure up to their standards of "pure communism." "A government minister can be dismissed just like a foreman," she said. "The moment of truth has arrived, and we shall never relinquish it." Where that girl is today Is unknown. She may be knee- deep in a flooded Kwangtung paddy field, or digging ditches in a Sinkiang desert. She may be in a "labor reform" camp, for twenty years."

Altogether.

67 agencies placed ads for people, but 80 per cent if the solicitation was done by six agencies Navy, Army, Air "orce; Veterans Administration; Health, Education and Welfare; and Agency for Internationl Development, in that order. A majority of the agencies ate formal advertising as a useful recruiting method, the eport by the Civil Service Commission shows. But a depth valuation of the method's ef- ectiveness remains to be made. Most of the ads were pretty tame stuff. No sloganeering treats you good, like the government just So This Is Greeley By Jhn that a recruiter for such- and-such an agency was soon visit the campus.

Only one-half of one per cent of the ad money was spent on radio and television time. Partly this was because many stations publicize federal job opportunities for free, as a public service. Agency comments indicated that advertising had been especially useful in attracting experienced persons from outside government; for recruiting lighly specialized personnel for technical positions; for finding candidates for unusual assignments and in obtaining tem- jorary clerical help. Although a majority of agencies commented favorably on use of advertising, there were some negative comments. said they felt it should ie strictly an emergency procedure for staffing only the lardest-to-fill positions.

At present, each agency does ts own job advertising. But the GROUNDBREAKING Eastman Kodak people put on quite show Tuesday at their groundbreaking ceremony, which topped any I've ever covered for a newspaper. The VIP's were wined and dined under three "circus" tents, and the barbecued beef catered by Fritz Barsch was as tender as butter. Master of Ceremonies Howard Smith, manager of Kodak Colorado, made a big thing out of the fact that Phyllis Miller, the attractive wife of Windsor's mayor Wayne Miller, was the first employe to be hired by Kodak Colorado. She's Smith's secretary, and opened the temporary Kodak office in the old Great Western Sugar factory at Windsor.

Tuetday's groundbreaking also occurred on Mrs. Miller's birthday, Smith pointed Mayor Miller drew a big laugh from the 300 or so spectators when he commented: "On her last birthday, four or five years ago, the school house burned down!"

One possibility would be for the commission to take regular ads in large daily papers, listing positions on a "call-in" basis, with each participating agency contributing to the ad's cost.

Perhaps the only redeeming feature in the whole confrontation is the real possibility that the welfare system as we now know it will simply "cease to be." If the "responsibility" exercised by County Commissioners capacity to recognize problems and de vise creative, innovative solutions leaves something to be de sired.

The result of this type of ineffective response is that pie get disgusted with local institutions and turn to higher levels and values for action.

He couldn't have been more correct. The 92-degree high reported by the CSC Weather Station Tuesday set a new record for May 27 in the area. The previous high of 61 degrees for the same date was registered in 1934.

For the presentation, Miller rounded up three, sets of twins and they were really great. They were Darrell and Eric Brunner, twin sons of Mr. and Mrs.

Illustrious Potentate of El Jebel Temple William C. Muchow presented him with the Jewel of El Jebel for his many years of sen-ice to the children of Weld County.

He received a standing ovation as he received the Jewel. He deserved the award and the ovation. Lodwick has been active as a Shriner for more than 25 years, and for the 17 years in addition to his Crippled Children activities, he has been in charge of the program of the Greeley Shrine Club to send school children of Weld County to the annual Shrine Circus in Denver. William G. Hayden president of the Greeley Shrine Club, says Lodwick has arranged for the securing of tickets from local Shriners and from others in the community who purchased tickets and turn them over lo him to send children to the circus, and also arranged all the transportation.

Haydtn said more than 1,050 Weld County children will be given the opportunity to see the circus this year. Nice going, Paul.
