TOKYO (AP) Teng Hsiaoping, apparently riding a wave of public and Communist Party support, is expected to replace Hua ens, as China's premier, but not clear yet whether Hua will also lose the chairmanship of the Chinese Communist Party, the top job in the Chinese hierarchy. The new power struggle among the top Chinese leaders was revealed last week in a barrage of pro-Teng wall posters in Peking that sharply attacked policies of the late Chairman Mao Tse-tung. The poster campaign was followed by a series of weekend demonstrations by Teng supporters which appeared to have party blessings. Teng, twice resurrected from political exile after being purged by Communist Party radicals, acknowledged for the first time Sunday that Hua faced demotion. Kyodo, the Japanese news agency, said he told Ryosaku Sasaki, leader of the Japanese Democratic Socialist Party, at a meeting Sunday that the party politburo was considering revising two of its decisions made in April 1976.

One of these promoted Hua to premier and first vice chairman of the the party and the other stripped Teng of all his party and government posts. Hua, who was Mao's choice to be his successor, moved into the top spots after Mao died in September 1976. Teng was restored to all his party post in July 1977, made first deputy premier and put in charge of 'China's big modernization drive. But Hua was already premier, having been named to the post while Teng was still in political disgrace. Teng indicated the "revi- Hua Kuo-feng sions" would be made because Mao, then 84 and ill, acted under the influence of the nowdisgraced radical Gang of Four led by his wife, Chiang Ching.
