Chinese Reds
Starting To Use
Assembly Line v
Tokyo - (liPD - The Chinese
Communists are going in for
American-style assembly line
production.
They're going about it in a
small way, but they like it in
a big way. -
That's the word from Pei
ping's official mouthpiece, the
New China News Agency.
According to a New China
report monitored here, ''auto
matic .production, lines have
been adopted in a number of
machine - building plants in
China." . .
The agency's description of
the assembly line indicates it
is a primitive thing by Ameri
can standards. But in Peiping
they apparently think it's
tops. " ' .
Raised Output
In the hand gauge produc
tion department of the Har
bin measuring instrument and
cutting tools plant, for in
stance, the Red report said the
assembly line "has raised
output nine-fold and reduced
the number of workers from
seven to two."
The assembly line methods
were worked out jointly by
research scientists under the
First - Ministry of Machine
Building ' and the engineers
and workers of the plant, the
agency said. -
"Automatic production is a
new development" in China,
it added. And it will be used
more in the future as Chinese
industry progresses toward
its goal of trying to "walk on
two legs." -
But the agency indicated
that most of China's working
millions cannot:;, expect the
ease of the assembly line for
some time to come."
The reason for this, the re
port strongly implied, is that
the bulk of Chinese industry
still has a long way to go be
fore it even gets to the as
sembly line stage.
New China put it this way:
'The general stress at present
is on mechanization and semi-
mechanization."
Ideas Sought
To help, the government
has called on workers to pitch
in with their ideas for improv
ing production methods.
- If the response of the work
ers is any indication they ap
parently want plenty of im
provements. ...In North China's leading in
dustrial city of Tientsin alone,
more than one million pro
posals were put forward "by
rank and file workers in the
first 10 months of this year,"
the agency reported. ,
"Two-thirds of them were
adopted," it added.
"While many of these inno
vations in themselves bring
only small ' improvements,"
the agency said, "together
they have a tremendous im
pact on production resulting
in higher efficiency, , lighter
work, better quality and low
er costs."
Man Missing for
2 Weeks Returns
Yakima - (UPD - Levari Cow-
den, 33, a Toppenish, Wash.,
building" contractor, returned
home unharmed Wednesday
night after being ; reported
missing for two weeks.
Sheriff Bert Guns said that
Cowden admitted to FBI
agents and sheriffs deputies
that reports he had been kid
naped were false. .
Cowden said he had been
concerned over his business
affairs and had left the area
"on. the spur of the moment."
He said he drove his station
wagon to Spokane and trav
eled by bus to Jacksonville,
Fla., where he went to work
as a carpenter". -
He told officers that after
working In that city for sev
eral days he began thinking
about his family In Toppenish
and decided to return.
Sheriff Guns had instigated
an all-out search for Cowden
after he was reported missing
with several hundred dollars
on his person. . -'-

Empty School Obituaries
Building Symbol
Of Race Hatred
Dublin, Ga.-IUPD-A modern
school building stands empty
and unused in the nearby
ghost town of Brewton today,
a costly symbol of raciol bit
terness in Georgia.
The school was put up three
years ago to serve 500 Negro
children. It cost the State
Building Authority $262,
420.58 to construct. And it
cost another $306,491.93 to
build a replacement.
Withering Away V
What happened was this:
Brewton, which is five miles
from Dublin, is one of those
hundreds of small communi
ties in the South that are with
ering away as a result of mi
gration to the cities.
Only a small number of
white residents still live there,
and its white school was aban
doned a number of years ago
when a new one was ' built
closer to the city.
So the state decided to build
an addition to the abandoned
structure and make a Negro
school out of it. This is the
one that stands empty today
still looking brand new de
spite its many smashed win
dows, damage caused by rain
and vandals, a schoolyard
grown with weeds' and mod
ern classrooms, cafeteria and
science labs stripped of their
equipment.
The reason the school hasn't
been used is that one of Brew
ton's white residents, Millard
Beall, produced a deed which
he said showed that two of
the classrooms jutted onto his
property.
14 Acres Donated
As long as there was any
chance the school might be
attended by Negroes, Beall
would not relinquish his
claim.. But then state Rep.
Herschel Lovett of Dublin do
nated 14 acres of land for a
new Negro school and, Beall
did give up his title.
Actually, I. H. McLendon,
principal of the new Negro
school, believes it serves the
area better than the other one
could have and is pleased
with the outcome of the Brew
ton incident. The new school,
named for. Negro physician
B. D. Perry, is attended by
644 children.
But the problem of what
to do with the abandoned
structure remains. Lovett has
started a campaign to have
the state relinquish its title
