Peking's Effort To Woo Overseas Chinese Harmed by Moscow Split
By ARTHUR J. DOMMEN
Hong Kong - OIPD - The
open split between Peking
and Moscow has apparently
seriously undermined the Red
Chinese persistent effort to
"woo the important commu
nity of more than 18 million
Chinese living abroad, prin
cipally in Southeast Asia.
As a consequence of its in
creasingly obvious isolation
from the largest "have" coun
try in the Communist world,
Peking is now giving reas
surances to the "overseas Chi
nese" that it can produce
enough foodstuffs, industrial
and consumer goods to sur
vive on its own.
Letters received here from
Chinese friends and relatives
in Southeast Asian countries
reveal a general perplexity
about the present predica
ment of Communist - run
China. There is worry over
the future.
The overseas Chinese have
always cherished the hope
that their mother land will
one day become prosperous
and strong. The collapse of
Peking's "great leap forward"
has shown them that China
cannot do without outside aid
on a gigantic scale, let alone
raise the living standard of
her 700 million people.
LiiiU Understanding
Most of the overseas Chi
nese have little understand
ing of the issues involved in
the Sino-Soviet quarrel. But
they know of the withdrawel
of Russian economic assist
ance and technical coopera
tion from their country.
"What will come to China
now?" is a frequent question
asked in letters addressed to
Hong Kong, where people are
regarded as being better in
formed about mainland con
ditions than they are in Bang
kok, Singapore or Jakarta.
In an apparent attempt to
counter this disillusionment,
the Communist newspapers in
Hong Kong have in recent
weeks filled their columns
with reports of improved liv
ing conditions inside China,
of progress in agriculture and
industry.
This emphasis on economic
reports is coupled with a top
level insistence on the neces
sity of "relying on one's own
strength."
For instance, during the
visit to Peking last month of
the North Korean delegation
led by President Choi Yong
Kon, Chinese head of state
Liu Shao-Chi praised the Ko
reans for building an inde
pendent economy and stres
sed the importance of this ex-

department of accounting and
business statistics in the
school of business administration.
ample for other countries.
Always with a sensitive ear
to sentiment among the over
seas Chinese, Peking gave a
warning to fellow Asians
against economic dependence
on non-Asian countries - such
as the Soviet Union.
Motivating Reason
The desire to build up good
state relations with other
Asians, as proposed to non
Asians, appears to have been
the motivating reason behind
Peking's attitude towards the
anti - Chinese riots in Indo
nesia last May.
Following the disturbances
which inflicted serious dam
age on Chinese properties and
threatened Chinese lives in
that neutralist country, Pek
ing maintained a stony
silence for 20 days.
Finally, an authoritative
Peoples Daily editorial on the
riots laid the blame at the
doorstep of "U. S. Imperial
ism." Thus, the Chinese Commu
nists repeated the wards of
Indonesian President Su
karno, who had referred to
"disturbances incited by Indo
nesian counter-revolutionaries
and foreign .subversive ele
ments, aimed at overthrowing
the Indonesian republic and
Sukarno himself."
Faced with a complete cut
off of Russian aid, and per
haps trade relations, Peking
has had the perspicacity to
see that it cannot afford to
antagonize the government of
oil-rich, rice-rich Indonesia.
Left In Disgust
Literally thousands of over
seas Chinese lured by Peking
propaganda into giving up
their holdings in Indonesia
and journeying to China at
the start of the "great leap
forward" in 1958 have now
left China in disgust and are
stranded in Macao and Hong
Kong.
A very few have gone to
Taiwan but most would like
to get back into Indonesia if
they could. A one-way smug
gling traffic has sprung up
between Hong Kong and Indo
nesia. A European captain
says he is being offered up to
about $330 per person to carry
Chinese stowaways into Indo-

High Blood Pressure
Said Traceable to
Hereditary Factors
All this has distressed the
Peking regime, which has
slackened off its efforts to at
tract large numbers of over
seas Chinese to the mainland
for "socialist construction."
The regime, faced with the
growing reality of the split
between the "haves" and the
"have-nots" In world Com
munism, is now relying princi
pally on glowing newspaper
accounts (without statistics) to
preserve the image of
strong and self-reliant nation
of the first rank among the
world powers.
Presumably, the achieve
ment of a nuclear capability
is intended primarily to place
the cap on this strength-
I through-self portrayal.
By DELOS SMITH
UPI Science Editor
New York - OIPH - By track
ing down the brothers and sis
ters of persons with severely
high blood pressure from no
apparent organic cause, a
noted medical scientist made
a powerful case "for the para
mount Importance of genetic
(hereditary) factors."
Medical science generally
accepts the existence of such
factors in the unknown causes
of the form of high blood pres
sure called "essential hyper
tension." The common scien
tific doubts center around how
important these factors are.
Dr. Robert Piatt checked on
178 men and women with es
sential hyper tension. The

blood pressures of their 250
brothers and sisters, many
living in widely scattered
parts of the world, were taken
by cooperating physicians.
These mass readings formed
a pattern which demonstrated,
in Piatt s view, that "essential
hypertension is a specific in
herited disorder of middle
age." On the other hand, he
added, "secondary hyperten
sion (high blood pressure due
to specific organic disorders)
is not, in general, hereditary.
Evidence From Twins
Piatt also had evidence from
three sets of identical twins
who being identical would be
expected to have identical
heredities. One member of
each set came to his attention
originally as a patient with
severe hypertension, upon in
vestigation the other member
of each set was found to have
the disorder in similar degree.
On the basis of his new
study and his previous studies
which date back some 20
years, he theorized that the
time-bomb cause of the dis
ease, set to go off in middle
life, was transmitted from
generation to generation by a
single gene with incomplete
dominance." i
Thus it wouldn't necessarily
operate even when combined
in a given Individual with the
same gene. But in proper com
bination it would give rise to
severe hypertension, he said.
and alone it could cause a
moderate persistent high
blood pressure.
Gene Modified
He suggested the gene has
been modified over many gen
erations by the "natural se
lection mechanism of evolu
tion. The gene form which ex
ploded into severe high blood
pressure during youth has
been "nearly eliminated," he
said, because the persons who
carried it died of the disorder
before they could reproduce
The gene form now pre
valent "accurately begins to
kill not in old age but in the
post- reproductive years."
Since the persons who have
it already have their children
natural selection now is "slow
if not powerless, to affect it
much further." !
He also suggested that it
might confer some benefits.
When It is operative on a les
ser level it might enhance
both the fertility and the re
sistance to infective disease of
the carrier. And it "might be
the elimination of aging rela
tives has survival value to
the younger generation."
Piatt reported his study to
the technical journal, "The
Lancet." He is professor of
medicine at the university of
Manchester, Eng., and has
been knighted for his achieve
ments in medical science.
