old Chinese Reds told Step aside reckoned to have marred tenure as party chairman The new chairman succeeded Mao's handpicked heir Hua Guofeng who resigned during this week's plenary session of the Central Committee In laying down the new party line Hu hammered at themes advanced in a rewrite of the history: The party has done good work and so did Mao but both made serious mistakes particularly during the Cultural Revolution That era which Hu called Mao's "gross blunder" has cost the party dearly he said but in keeping with the upbeat tenor of the plenum that elected him Hu predicted bright future for China's socialist must devote much of our energy from now on to the selection and training of thousands and thousands of cadres who combine ability and political integrity and are in their prime and give these comrades the opportunity to take part in Hu said Hu punctuated his address with a raised clenched fist leaving the audience to reflect on the difference between their new chairman and the more phlegmatic Deng whose own speeches often sound like a listing of stops on a rail line The response to address closed to outsiders but televised nationally seemed tepid perhaps in tune with warnings against the establishments of personality cults like the one that now is officially Secretary of Army rejects proposal to revive draft By DAN WILLIAMS Herald Staff Writer PEKING The new leader of the largest Communist party gave an impassioned pep talk to his followers Wednesday urging discipline and demanding that the old generation of leadership step aside to overcome past mistakes It was Hu Yaobang's public debut two days after he was named chairman by the party's Central Committee He told 10000 shirt-sleeved faithful in the Great Hall of the People to knuckle down to challenges of modernizing China "It was only natural that we would make mistakes of one kind or another" Hu said after lamenting blunders from the 1958 Great Leap Forward to the 1966-76 Cultural Revolution "The important thing is to be good at learning through practice" Hu spoke on the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese Communist Party which he said now numbers 39 million He sat under a flag bedecked hammer and sickle next to Communist Party Vice Chairman Deng Xiaoping mentor of the pragmatists now in power in China Hu's rise to leadership caps the triumph of the result-keen Deng followers over the more ideologically oriented Maoists who ruled during the Cultural Revolution However while the pragmatists have consolidated power in the high and middle levels of the party many lower members still in office owe their positions to following line "Comrades at the lower level must respect and obey Hu insisted bouncing in his red-backed chair for emphasis must not feign compliance while actually violating or resisting instructions from the higher Stressing the need to ensure a continuity of present policies Hu 66 echoed his friend repeated call for older officials to step aside and raise younger party members to positions of authority need to reinstitute it Reinstatement of the draft would require an act of Congress The sources said Meyer did not object to deleting the proposal The budget document proposing the draft was sent to Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger June 15 but with a cover letter from Marsh saying the idea has been "discarded as being unacceptable at this the sources said They said Marsh told Weinberger the Army could meet its increased manpower goals with a combination of more volunteer recruiting and a higher rate of retention following administration plans to increase military salaries The Army buildup seeks an expansion from 16 to 18 active divisions plus increasing the National Guard divisions from eight to 10 WASHINGTON (UPI) Army Secretary John Marsh has turned down a recommendation from his chief of staff to reinstitute the draft in 1984 to meet the manpower needs Pentagon sources said Wednesday The recommendation by Gen Edward Meyer was contained in a five-year budget program that Marsh ordered rewritten so that the draft proposal would be ommitted they said Meyer proposed in contradiction of Reagan Administration policy that the draft be reinstituted in fiscal 1985 which begins Oct 1 1984 to ensure the Army would meet its goal of expanding the force by 100000 men in the next five years the sources said The draft was ended in 1973 and the Reagan Administration has said it sees no Tropical storm breaks up in Virginia United Press International Piece of cake Lena Horne turned 64 the other

early Wednesday morning Forecaster Gil Clark said Bret was a surprise to meteorologists because of its unlikely birthplace and the rapidity with which it grew was unusual as a tropical storm because
