In the countryside around Canton it is still possible to see women pushing heavily loaded hand-carts or peasants working by the thousands on a construction project where the main tools are the pick and the straw basket.

By CHARLES SMITH London Financial Times I'PI LONDON One of the most, notable feature of the Chinese "thaw" which set in last year with a succession of diplomatic moves and has continued in 1971 with a virtuoso display of table tennis has been the revelation or partial revelation of what China's economy is worth. The paradox which strikes a visitor to China today is that the country is both relatively affluent and at the same time forbiddingly austere. The city of Canton, the largest in South China and by any standards an important economic center, has the style The explanation for the apparent discrepancy between medieval simplicity and this highly specialized form of affluence is quite simply that China is one of the most highly disciplined countries in the world and the discipline spreads far beyond the enforcement of a particular patterns of consumer spending.

MCCARTHY NEW YORK greatest wish is that a little old lady will come up to me on the street and swat me in the face with her handbag." That, says 27-year-old Gianni Russo, "will be the proof that I have accomplished what I have set out to do and that is to portray the biggest rat in the world." Russo, who rose from pizza pie baker on New York City's Staten Island to millionaire Las Vegas businessman, has a role in the motion picture, "The Godfather," which is based on the best selling novel about an underworld family and is now being shot on location in New York. Russo plays the son-in-law of the "Godfather" and portrays the part of a first-class heel. The movie opens with Russo's marriage to the "Godfather's" daughter shortly after which the son-in-law spends all of the wedding money on wine, women and song.

Russo, who has never acted Speedier Construction Would Spur Economy In a virtual forest of brick houses, one home that merits attention is an 11-room. two-story structure that emphasizes wood and wood products. The house, in Charlotte.

North Carolina, was designed around two theories: that it could be architecturally different and still "fit" in the neighborhood, and that it could be planned to suit the varying needs of family members. Builders Ed Rousseau and Bill Petty (experts in the traditional brick architecture of the area i conceived the idea and sought the help and sponsorship of the American Wood Council. Architect R. Emory Holroyd iA.I.A.i "imagined" a family, and drew up plans to suit their needs. The home that grew from these joint talents offers architectural newness, visual excitement, touches of Southern charm and comfftrt, spacious social areas and private rooms designed for work and hobbies.

The wood look, with its intrinsic style and warmth, was featured everywhere. Individual needs got prime consideration in floor layout and room decor. For instance, a comfortable work-at-home ofTice for a writer-husband is located in the quiet wing of the second floor which also houses the master bedroom and guest room'. Hardboard wall paneling in a dark, masculine woodgrain finish sets a scholarly tone for the room. It also makes an ideal backdrop for the furnishings: a mixture of glossy Oriental woods and contemporary leather and chrome.

On the "busy" side of the second floor modern kitchen, fully-equipped laundry i is the wife's hobby room light, airy, cheerfully-efficient, with lots of cabinet and counter space. An unusually effective touch is an entire storage wall of perforated hardboard panels. Hooks set in the perforations hold a variety of items, neatly and conveniently, including a colorful array of immense spools of needlepoint thread. The entire lower level of the house was set aside for junior members of the family and their friends. It includes two bedrooms and a large recreation room that opens onto a spacious outdoor deck, ideal for sports and sunning.

Another deck for dining and entertainment runs along the rear of the second floor, with entries from the formal dining room and kitchen. A 29-foot-long chamber divided into a music and television center and a living room with cathedral ceiling, completes the second floor.

Ot Shenandoah HERE cows THE BRIDE! By helping to solve the country's building crisis, industrialized building may ease other national ills.

"The benefits of industrialized, or systems, building will reach everyone and in vital ways," according to Marsh P. Trimble, executive director of Industrialized Building Exposition and Congress, Inc. "Its most obvious benefit will be to fulfill the nationwide need for housing and for commercial, institutional and industrial structures rapidly, and at stabilized costs." But also of great importance, says Trimble, is that industrialized building will be a "shot in the arm" to the national economy. "Nothing," he says, "stimulates all business more than accelerated construction activity." The troubled economy has for some time seriously affected the construction industry, both residential and commercial. At the same time that the country faces a desperate need for more and better housing and service structures, the building industry has been confronted with tight money (only recently increased building material and land costs, escalating wage scales, and a seriously depleted supply of skilled labor.

"Building, government and financial experts saw industrialized building as the only feasible solution to the dilemma. What we also came to realize was that interest in industrialized building would become a spur to the economy." Trimble says undeniable evidence of this is an overwhelming interest in the second Industrialized Building Exposition and Congress to be held Oct. 31 to Nov. 4 in the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville. More than 15,000 are expected to attend.

"These people," says Trimble, "are hard-core professionals who know the problems of the industry and the economy. They are interested in industrialized building because they see it as a promising answer to both." Specifics of the building "problem" are: that in the course of a single generation, the building industry must duplicate the current total inventory of all types of shelter (homes, offices, schools, commercial and institutional buildings). that escalation of construction and land costs up 85 percent and 300 percent, respectively, in the past 20 years, has skyrocketed both residential and commercial building prices often out of range of the buyer. that despite inflated wage scales (construction wages are among the highest in the country) shortages of skilled labor have become critical. that the conventional method of on-site building was producing a hopelessly short supply of the building need which was increasing every day.

What is obviously needed, Trimble points out, is more modern building methods which will improve and increase production, allow year-round production, permit quality control, make efficient use of skilled and unskilled labor, and by stabilizing costs bring building back into the marketplace again. "In other words, what's needed is industrialized building." The effectiveness of industrialized building is not theoretical, Trimble says. "The system has been used successfully in Europe since the war. And, in the United States, growth of the pre-engineered building, modular and manufactured home industries is testimony to industrialization's growing acceptance." This Filigree Trick Is Treat Tricks become treats when they put "pizzazz" in your decorating scheme at low cost. Here's one trick to try: use filigree hardboard panels as a headboard for a Hollywood bed.

Simplest method is to install the panels on the wall behind the bed. In most cases they can be glued, with special adhesive, or nailed right to the wall. With the bed pushed against them, the panels will look like a large exotic headboard. Or, if you're handy, you can make an actual headboard. Filigree hardboard is easily cut and shaped.

There are several smart patterns, finished on both sides in decorator colors or woodgrains, to dress up your bedroom, and unfinished panels you can stain or paint to suit. Once the new headboard is installed, you may want to carry out the decorative theme with radiator covers, valances, room dividers or storage-space doors in the same pattern. in a movie before, has a definite commitment for two more films and probably will make a fourth. For a man who was almost permanently crippled by polio at the age of seven, Russo has vitality and drive. He has exercised away the last vestiges of paralysis.

"I had a lot of time to think when I was a youngster in a hospital bed," says Russo. "I know it may sound crass but I realized even then that I had two goals in life. Out to Make Money "One was to make so much money that I would never have to care now much I had. The other was to be surrounded by all kinds of people, important people interesting people." If he looks and sounds just a little bit like the recently retired Frank Sinatra, it might not just be all an accident. Although Russo just grins boyishly and murmurs "no comment" when asked about Sinatra, a close friend notes: "Frank and Gianni were both born on the 12th day of the 12th month although some years apart.

There may be some kind of fate in it." Russo says he doesn't believe much in fate or luck. "You've got to get out there and hustle and work and make it all yourself." Mark Taimanov Thursday at the University of British Columbia in one of four quarter-final matches being played throughout the world. The quarter-finals lead to the candidates' matches to determine who meets World Champion Boris Spassky of the U.S.S.R. in Moscow in 1972. Fischer wants the title and experts give him a good chance.

In other quarter-finals matches, Denmark's Bent Lar-sen plays Wolfgang Uhlmann of East Germany in Las Palmas, Spain former World Champion Tigran Petrojan takes on Hans Huebner of West Germany in Milan, Italy, and Victor Korch-noi and Efraim Geller, both Soviets, match wits in Sotji, Georgia, in the U.S.S.R. Experts Predict End Experts are predicting a semifinal clash between Fischer and Larsen and an end to Soviet domination of the game. Bozidar Kazic, of Yugoslavia, chief arbiter for the Vancouver match, wrote in Chess Life and Review, "Fischer is a unique figure in the history of chess, the most talented player America has produced since Paul Morphy. "He is described as the genius the likes of which appear but once in a century." But, the 28-year-old native of Brooklyn, N.Y., is known also as the "bad boy" of the chess world for the strict restrictions he places on his matches. Religious Rules Observed In Vancouver, he has stipulated that competition end at sundown Fridays and not resume until sundown Saturdays for religious reasons and that the public be excluded from the room where the match is played.

But the University of British Columbia, the Canadian Chess Federation will transmit the moves to an adjacent room in the graduate centre for the public. The quarter-final round between Fischer and Taimanov is expected to last three weeks. Rounds are scheduled for May 13, 16, 18, 20, 23, 25, 27, 30 and June 2. The final round is scheduled for June 4. The match will have ended when one player reaches 5Vi points.
