Wild Beast9 Hunts in China
Hint of Internal Uprisings
By FRED HAMFSOM
ttONG KONG UH Local radios
la Red China suddenly have become
full of orders for "wild beast hunts'
where few or no beasts exist It
; must mean some sort of uprisings
In wide areas of China.
Radio Peiping. which is beamed
abroad, has said .nothing about the
"beast hunts. But this week more
; than a dozen internal stations in
China are full of the subject J j
The radios mention "tigers- and
panthers," common Chinese figures
f speech for any important enemy,
Most of the provinces named have
few tigers. China is not a land f
predatory animals. . .
I first ' heard this myster
ious campaign to "prevent beast
calamities" in a Chinese broadcast
from Kunming, in southwest China,
last Sunday. Some Chinese friends
and I could not figure it out ;
The next night we tried the Han
kow radio in the central province
of Hupeh. Out came hudreds of
, words about "bunting the beasts
in the mountains and saving the
crops.
What? Beasts in Hupeh, a rke
bowl province, damage rice pad
' dies? It was a new one on us. The
Reds were hunting "tigers" and
"panthers" there? c
We switched to radio Sian in
Shensi Province in the North. There
they were organizing peasant hunt
ing parties to track down wild
beasts.' i.
The next night we swung back to

THE OREGON STATESMAN
Ore-, Sunday, Aug. S3. 1953
the Kunming radio In Yunnan Pro
vince and heard such as this:
"Do not set fire to forests to
burn them out . if hunters are
killed in the hunt pensions will be
supplied . . . peasants or hunters
who have died while hunting or
have been wounded when seized
by beasts will be helped by the
government . the government
will supply hunters with money for
ammunition and guns. . . we must
protect the people, cattle and farm
plants from beast calamities."
Is that a description of a wild
beast hunt or an uprising?
Since this is all serious stuff. It
must mean, some sort of uprisings
in several provinces as far north
as Shensi, as far south as Hunan
and as far west as Yunnan.
Who is rebelling? Not a clue Is
given. Never once do the radios
depart from the "beast" formula.
If they mean human beings, they
never say so even by inference.
It is possible the Communists are
recruiting hunters without telling
them what they are to hunt There
may be more than tigers and pan
thers in Red China's mountains,
forests and rice paddies.

The officials from 37 states and

No record was made of the way
each delegate voted because the

The secretaries of state also ex
pressed concern over legislation

Deafness Can
Be Curbedlf
Noted in Time
NEW YORK (INS) One out
of every 23 IT. S. children will
grow into adulthood with a
permanent hearing defect be
cause parents are not trained to
discover hearing impairments, an
authority on deafness estimates.
Irving L SchachteL president

Association, also declared that
there are more than 15,000,000
people in the U. S. suffering from
hearing defects and that 3,000,
000 of these are school-age chil
dren.
Watch for Signals
Schachtel said at least 60 per
cent of all hearing. impairments
can be cured or controlled if dis
covered early enough, and he
urged parents to watch for 10
"warning signals" that indicate
a child is hard of hearing. A
child should be given a thorough
hearing test, Schachtel declared,
if he fits. into these descriptions:
. 1. He is not interested in school
and plays hooky.
2. He seems to understand you
better if he is looking right at
you..
Strains To Hear
3. He leans his head or assumes
other odd position while listen
ing. 4. He answers your questions
with evasive or irrelevant re-'
marks.
5. He 4eems lost or dreaming
while others are playing or talk
ing in a group.
6. His voice suddenly develops
high and, lows, either extremely
soft or very high.
7. He talks in decidedly tliff er
ent manner from the other mem
bers of the family.
8. He has difficulty in school-
work, specially in subject matters
that require hearing the spoken
words.
9. He is anti-social
10. He has become a "problem
child."

Printing Office
Threat Told
By McCarthy
By DOUGLAS B. CORNELL
WASHINGTON tf Sen. Mc
Carthy (R-Wis), declared Saturday
there is evidence the Government
Printing Office (GPO) harbors
Communists and a gambling ring
which Vofferi the most serious
threat possible to the security of
the nation."
Public Printer Raymond C. Blat-
tenberger, appointed by President
Eisenhower to run the big govern
ment printing plant, agreed com
pletely that such activities are a
grave threat.
But Blattenberger testified that
security has improved in the four
months he has been on the job.
He disclosed that 15 employes
accused of Communist connections
have been shunted to jobs in the
Library of Congress, where they
won t handle any secret material,
until it has been determined wheth
er the charges against them are
true or. false. j
McCarthy himself seemed to be
hinting at one point that GPO
would have better security if it
would get rid of Deputy Public
Printer Philip Cole as its security
officer.
Cole and Blattenberger sat side
by side on the witness stand while
McCarthy pounded questions at
them.
Cole, a 30-year career man, has
contended there has been nothing
lax about GOFs security setup,
while McCarthy has called it "fan
tastic." They collided repeatedly to
the extent of calling one another
a liar in somewhat restrained but
unmistakable terms. . i
McCarthy's charge that an, or
ganized gambling ring is operat
ing at the printing office seemed
to catch both Blattenberger and
Cole by surprise. At least they
said it did, and they looked on
with evident amazement when Mc
Carthy produced a surprise witness.
This Witness, Carl J. Lundmark,
a GPO hand compositor, stood on
his rights under the 5th Amend
ment to the Constitution and re
fused to say whether he runs a
gambling "book" at the Printing
Office and whether he made $25,
000 from it last year. ,
