Chinese Presents
for Free Nations
Several hundred thousand
mainland Chinese are report
ed ready to flee to lhe free
world.
"But the hard fact is," one
administration official said,
"there may be no place in the
free world for them to go."
The Nationalist government
on Formosa offered Monday
to lake in and try to resettle
all mainland Chinese fleeing
through Hong Kong.
But Formosa already has
its own acute land shortage
and one of the biggest popula
tion explosions in the world -
greater than India. Officials
do not believe it could accept
large numbers of new rcfu-
i gees.

In recent weeks Communist
guards have suddenly slopped
enforcing travel controls
along Red China's 22 - mile
border wilh Hong Kong. Since
May 1, 30,000 to 40,000 Chi
nese have flooded into the
DUiU -nl .. l ..

, jammed with three million
people in 398 square miles.
Because the colony could
absorb no more, British of
ficials have sealed the border
with barbed wire and have
been sending refugees back.
U.S. officials up lo Presi
dent Kennedy himself have
been urgently studying wheth
er this country and possibly
others could act on humani
tarian grounds to help the
refugees or somehow turn the
situation to political advan
tage.
One idea has hecn to in
crease surplus food aid which
the U.S. already supplies
through private relief organi
zations in Hong Kong at a
rate of $5 million a year.
May Bring More
"But if you feed 50.000
more Chinese, you may just
bring S0.000 more to the
door," one official said. "And
then you would just have to
cut it off someplace. There
are a half -million Chinese
within walking distance of
Hong Kong."
No one knows how many
Chinese might want to come
out, but refugees in Hong
Kong have spoken of hun
dreds of thousands ready to
follow them.
As to making arrangements
to resettle refugees to permit
lhe flow through Hong Kong
to be increased, the problem
is where?
Most free countries in Asia
already are overcrowded and
many such as, Thailand have
strong anti-Chinese feeling.
Australia has available land,
but also has restrictions
against Chinese immigration.
The U.S. immigration quota
for Chinese is 105 a year. A
bill is pending to increase this
lo 1,000. There is no U. S.
refugee law to permit Chinese
immigration above the quota,
but the President does have
power to parole refugees into
the country.
Could Hurt Reds
Rep. Francis E. Walter (D
Pa.) said Monday the Chinese
Nationalists could deal "an al
most mortal blow" to lhe Red
regime by taking substantial
numbers of refugees. Walter
said this could demonstrate
the failure of communism.
Walter, chairman of the
House immigration subcom
mittee, said in a House speech
this country could help by
providing food from surplus
U. S. stockpiles. But he said
the United Slates could not
take in an appreciable num
ber of refugees,
A British poll of other
countries was reported to
have shown that only a few
nations would be willing to
l;ike "token" numbers of
Chinese.
The difficulty of resettling
Chinese, particularly unskill
ed ones, is judged by the fact
thai of the million which
have entered Hong Kong since

service of this sort must be
painfully apparent to anyone
who has ever watched either
an "Emmy" or an "Oscar"
ceremony unfold on the magic
tube.
Employ Familiar Routint
The winners unfailingly slip
into the familiar "Who, little
old me?" routine, thusub
jecting the audience to two
hours of unrelenting modesty.
Owners of some of the most
monumental egos in show
business mount the stage and
profess to owe it all to the
cameraman, the sound techni
cian or the guy who empties
the dressing room wastebas
ket. A little humility never hurt
anyone, but I think the award
ceremonies would be vastly
improved if we didn't have to
spend the evening wallowing
in it.
That is where my ghost
writing service can pep up
the proceedings. It will pro
vide prepared remarks to
show how the winners really
feel about being chosen.
