Communist organizations are enlisted to "propagate friendship" during SSF Month,
which scarcely agrees with the frequent avowal of an existing, firm, and unbreakable
Sino-Soviet friendship. Peace seems to be shunted aside during the celebrations,
as the use of women in production, and possession of a strong modern Army, are two
USSR phenomena singled out for emulation. Even the chief USSR entertainers coming
to China are from the Red Army.
Peking 4eems desperately anxious to convince the Chinese of Communist good intentions
at Panmunjom. The full draft truce agreement is transmitted, along with emphasis
on claims that Americans arbitrarily broke off negotiations and misrepresented the
issues. Much attention is devoted to the United Nations, with a suggestion that
Vishinsky will present a satisfactory peace proposal if Acheson's perfidy permits.
Also, more evidence of sagging front-line morale is apparent. The seldom-meriti_:ned
Resist America, Aid-Korea organization promises greater home production in exhsnae
for assurances that the Chinese Volunteers will continue to fight.
Production difficulties are reported, even goods shortages, in the Northeast, where
thp,.Aupsian program is being pushed, while in other areas the use of inferior goods
is admitted. Apparently the USSR-planned production program can succeed only
through pressure and compulsion, as Soviet advisers urge confiscation of private
enterprise and adoption of a piece-work wage basis.
The push for firmer controls by Ruesianized Party organs reveals that "Judicial
reform" means abandonment of legal protection for individuals and minority groups,
with substitution of summary Judgment and manipulated mob rule. Private businessmen
who survived the anticorruption drives seem doomed to final extinction through the
reformed judiciary.
Despite claims of autonomous governments for Tibetans, it is revealed that Chinese
cadres are learning the Tibetan language so they can remain. in control. Also, the
reported wholesale conversion of peasants and minority nationalities has not diverted
the People's Liberation Army from its direction of Sinkiang farming, and elaborate
1953 plans.
