'Keep Them Poor and Busy'
Principle of Commie Rule
Hons Kone U.R) "Keep the
people poor and keep them
busy," is the basic principle of
Chinese Communist rule, an
analysis of mainland reports
shows. '
Those two conditions, the
Communists have found, are the
best, means of maintaining con
trol of the population. Reports
from both Communist and inde
pendent sources show that, in
stead . of generating social un
rest, they have produced de
pendence on the government and
pliability to further controls.
The two conditions are sup
plemented by high-tension in
doctrination, social rementa
tion, political suppression, mass
arrests and mass killings. They
have enabled the Communists
to keep the population more or
less tightly under their thumbs.
Reports reaching here reveal
that during their two-and-a-half
years under Red rule the Chi-

nese people nave been given
little respite. They have been
pushed almost uninterruptedly
through a hard-grinding gaunt
let of "movements," "cam
paigns" or ''drives" in a life of
virtually continuous tension.
"Struggle" Stressed k
Food requisitions, cash con
tributions, troop comfcting,
work competition, production in
crease, and the "struggle"
against landlords, reactionaries
and local despots enter into the
picture. There are victory bond
drives, the "resist United States
and aid Korea" movement, the
"suppression of counter-revolutionaries,"
church independence
movements, and the donations
drive to buy heavy weapons for
Chinese "volunteers" in TCorea.
All have been used to keep
the people keyed up but under
control. The latest drives are
the "thought-reform" movement
for intellectuals and the purge
inside the Communist Party and
government service against
"bureaucratism, corruption and
deviationism."
The other policy principle of
keeping the people poor is also
being vigorously carried out.
Wages and profits have been
kept at a low level by regula
tion or taxes.
State enterprises have been
expanded and private business
strangled and gradually breught
under state control. Export and
import trade, the textile indus
try, banking businesses and
many others for instance, al
ready have been put under com
plete state control .
Taxes Way Up
Taxes in present-day China
are reported to be among the
highest in the country's history.
Some of the taxes on the "un
wanted classes," the landlords,
for example, are - described as
liquidatory" in nature.
Numerous levies supplement
the taxes in keeping the peo
ple down to the state-envisaged
financial level. . Leaving aside
the many small levies, there was
the big "cash contribution and
loan" drive in 1949. Contribu
tions were made to the govern
ment and some cities paid as
much as the equivalent of U. S.
$1,000,000, which took away a

Sex Parties Told
Los Angeles U.R) Twenty
three members of a juvenile sex
club became 'court wards Thurs
day after a shocked Judge heard
reports of their frenzied sex
parties, some allegedly on a
school grounds.
One of the 19 boys, aged 11 to
16, involved in the investigation
was a president of his class. The
four girls are aged 12 to 14.
Started Three Months Ago
Superior Judge William B.
McKesson heard testimony that
the parties went on for nearly
three months before they came
to the attention 61 authorities,
who first learned of them from
the parents of a girl who had
been asked to Join.
"Our daughter told us," they
reported, "that the parties were
common knowledge among pu
pils of Vie school."
Parents of a brother and sister
involved in the orgies said that
school authorities knew of the
parties last October but failed to
notify parents.
On School Grounds
"Some of the acts were right
on the school grounds." they
charged.
McKesson and Court Commis
sioners ftiprman Holden and Rob
ert J. Hamilton interviewed the
youngsters, whose names were
withheld, before disposing of the
cases. McKesson held a private
hearing in chambers for the girls
before the boys went into court.
McKesson warned them to re
form, or learn that there are
sterner tribunals than the juve
nile COUtt.
One 13-year-old girl told him
of participating in normal and
abnormal sex practices with nine
boys. Another girl said she had
been intimate with 10 boys at
the parties.
Foollighlers Board
Elects Hew Officers
Miss Ruth Kilbourn was elect
ed vice-president of the Foot
lighters civic theater group at
a meeting, of the executive
board last evening. Frank Buch-
ter was elected president re
cently at an annual general
meeting.
Other new officers elected by
the board are Art Ayres, treas
urer, and Earl Knight, business
manager. Bernie Roberts was
reelected secretary.
Committee members appoint
ed at the meeting by Buchter
are Miss Kilbourn, play reading
committee chairman; Mrs. Buch
ter and Mrs. Knight, special
events and wardrobe; Miss Jer
aldyn Jerome, hostess chairman;
Miss Bernice Scofield, corre
sponding secretary, and Mrs.
Edward C. Kelly, membership
chairman.
large proportion of the money
the people had saved from the
nationalist days.
In 1950, there was the big
"victory . bond - drive," which
cleaned up another estimated
U. S. $200,000,000 from the peo
ple. Last year, there was an
other big "donations drive" to
buy planes and heavy weapons
for the Chinese "volunteers" in
Korea. That collected about
U. S. $236,000,000. The general
belief is that a new drive will
be launched this year, but no
one knows just now what it will
be like.
These money-collection drives
have clipped off any private in
come, partially, or wholly, that
might have been, obtained de
spite taxes and regulations.
A Chinese businessman, re
cently arrived here from Tient
sin, said:
"The Communists allowed our
firm to make five to 10 per cent
profit. Anything above that was
considered excessive profits and
led to charges of speculation or
hoarding.
"Even the five to 10 per cent
profit did not belong to us. It
usually ended in Communist
pockets as taxes and levies."
He said it is the same with
workers. Sometimes they are
given a raise, but often some
sort of a drive soon afterwards
takes it away.
