(UPI Telephotb) Khrushchev Rallies Support Against Chinese Communists (Editor's note: What reallv rni en between Soviet Russia and Red China a matter of mystery for years may shortly be clarified by another of Khrushchev's well placed leaks, possibly duplicating the delayed-action leak of his de nunciation of Stalin at a secret session of the 20th Congress of the Soviet Communist Party in 1956.) By F. Y. BLUMENFELD "Washington-Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev, his au thority over the world Com munist movement under chal lenge by Peking, has been busy rallying Communist bloc support against the People's Republic of China ever since the breakdown of the Paris summit conference in May. His extraordinary perform ance at the United Nations and elsewhere must . be at tributed at least in part to pressures from Red China for a tougher, less- compromising Russian stand against the West. Failure of Peking to abide by a Communist bloc declara tion in support of . peaceful coexistence, agreed to last June at a Red conference in Bucharest, is viewed as evi dence of mounting ideological differences between Moscow arid Peking. Red' China con tends (1) that the advent of nuclear weapons has not changed the struggle between communism and capitalism; (2) that genuine peace cannot be assured while imperialism survives; (3) that the final victory of communism can be ' attained only through a "just" war. United States Ambassador James J. Wadsworth said in a speech on Oct. 1 in the U.N. General Assembly that this "is the only recorded instance of a group of men anywhere in the world believing that a world war fought .with hy drogen bombs, in which up to nan or more of their own pop ulation would be wiped out, would lead to a more beauti ful future." Khrushchev takes a less frightening stand- in his ideo logical dispute with the Chi nese Reds. He is said to feel that Chinese policies would lead to world disaster and is confident that communisms final victory can best be achieved through peaceful economic competition. Principal Causes Four principal causes are given for the Sino-Soviet cleavage: Disagreements tactics and strategy; prestige rivalry within the Communist bloc and competition for the favor of the uncommitted na tions; population pressures and border tensions; China's Internal troubles --resulting from an over-ambitious pro gram of industrialization. Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey, (D-Minn.) told the Senate on Aug. 17 that "the Communist empire used to have one cen ter-Moscow," while "now it clearly has two centers-Mos cow and Peking." The Chi nese regard Mao Tse-tung as the ranking theoretician of the Communist movement, and the Russians, of necessity, pay deference to Khrushchev as the foremost interpreter of Marxism-Leninism. Mao has been portrayed in China as the world's foremost revolu tionary leader and as Stalin's heir. By his pronouncements and attitude, he has left little doubt that he considers him self entitled to lead world communism. He looks upon Khrushchev as an intellectual "lightweight" hardly worthy of his high place in the Krem lin. Abandoning its adherence to the principles, of peaceful coexistence approved at the 1959 Bandung conference and later at-Bucharest, Red China has in. the last two years broken -off' trade relations with Japan, brutally suppress ed a revolt in Tibet, threaten ed the borders of India, hu miliated Indonesian diplomats in Peking, incited fighting in Laos, shelled the Chinese off shore islands of Quemoy and Matsu, and carried on a pro vocative type of diplomacy in Cuba, Latin America and Afri ca. These actions seem all to have been taken without con sulting Moscow. Because any split in top Communist leadership violates Lenin's dictum that party au thority must be strictly en forced, as in a military chain of command, plain speaking can be'expected from Khru shchev if he-meets Mao in Korea. And if the Chinese leadership does not yield ground, the doctrinal dispute may come before a world meeting of Communist leaders in Moscow Nov. 7 to celebrate the 43rd anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution. 1 Notwithstanding all the tan gible evidence of disagree ment between the two Red Giants, including the recent departure from China of thou sands of Russian technicians, the Sino-Soviet alliance is based on mutual interests of a compelling kind. The two powers are in full agreement on the main body of Commu nist ideology and while Red China enhances Soviet mili tary . and political strength, Russian know-how and help are essential to China's indus trialization program; Nevertheless, authorities on Sino-Soviet relations believe that with the passage of time the alliance will become in creasingly difficult to hold to gether. Population pressures in China will generate ever increasing strains along the nearly 4,000 miles of com mon frontier with Russia. Such strains are already evi dent in Outer Mongolia. It is questioned, however, wheth er an ultimate collision be tween the two powers should be welcomed by the West. With . Red China only two or three years away from having her own nuclear weapons, the reckless talk in Peking about the inevitability of "just wars" to abolish imperialism holds a clear threat of atomic holocaust.

NO PRESCRIPTION REQUIRED McLains Thrifty Green Stamps N. Central SP 2-7113 DRUG CENTRE ill Small Worlds Around Us By Lynn M. Watkins If Gopher Didn't Dig, He'd Be All Teeth Eating with one's mouth closed requires special adap tive equipment. It really sounds impossible, but with the pocket gopher it's sneaky way of eating and can only be accomplished because this little burrowing rodent has his front teeth outside his lips. This imparts to the small animal an appearance of ex treme ferociousness. Even when he is happy, he still looks as if he were snarling. ' Up front, right where they are the handiest for digging, me animal nas lour very strong, very sharp teeth These teeth grow so fast the little guy has to keep getting his teeth into things constant ly, otherwise they would grow to the point where he could not close his mouth. It has been estimated that this rodent's teeth will grow over a foot in a year's time. At that rate he could grow about eight or nine feet of teeth in a fa vorable lifetime. To keep the teeth within reasonable size, the gopher must chew tough and stringy plant roots. Along with grit in the form of sand and dirt and the tough vegetable fibre, he can wear his dental equip ment down about as fast as they grow. Not Only Unusual Thing Teeth structure and their tremendous growth is not the only unusual thing about this Man in Hurry Columbus, Ohio Assistant Fire Chief Jim Fairbanks says a man sauntered into one of the base fire stations and asked: "Say, do you guys know where I can get a fire extinguisher?" Thinking he wanted one for home use, the fireman on( duty answered: ."We have some here, but we can't loan them out. Maybe you could get one from base supply to morrow on a hand receipt." 'Well, I really wanted one before that," was the reply.) I'm in kind of a hurry. My uncommon animal, for these little characters are equipped with external cheek-pouches, on both sides of their villain ous faces. These cheek-pouches are fur-lined. Pretty handy, these elastic purses, as the gopher can carry a consider able load of material in them. If he wanted to take a trip, which of course he never does, and be away for a spell from the home burrow, he could fill the pouches with food to last a considerable time. And, too, the pouches are just the thing for carrying nesting ma terials such as leaves, twigs and rootlets, leaving the ani mal's feet and mouth available for digging. No Dirt Carriers It's been a common miscon ception that the cheek-pouches were used for carrying dirt. Such, however, is not the case. They are only used for trans porting food or nesting materials. Surprising, too, that the pocket gopher prefers to live alone. Perhaps he, like Mrs. Gopher, is hard to get along with. Even the young are kicked out as soon as they are old enough to dig for them selves. Once on his own the young ster begins the first part of his life's work - dlesinz a series of tunnels. For the rest of his days he will work in the gritty underground dark ness, gnawing on plant roots, carrying food in his cheek pouches, and constantly chew ing to keep his front teeth from becoming a burden In stead of a blessing.
