Bakdash. a lawyer from a By TOM A. CIXLEN NEA Staff Correspondent BEIRUT NEA - The over-rid-ing fear of many Lebanese to whom I have talked is that a premature withdrawal of Ameri can military forces would leave their nation at the mercy of the Communists. No one here doubts that a left wing military junta would seize Parents Free On Probation MONTEREY. Calif. (API - A mother and elderly stepfather who padlocked a 24-pound ball and chain around the neck of her 12-year-old son were freed on proba tion after testifying the boy was uncontrollable. William Gutherie, 72 and his wife Myrtle. 4S, climaxed their hearing yesterday by testifying her son William Gerald Jones had been expelled from school for holding a knife against a girl's back. Municipal Judge Ray Baugh said, "You have a real problem. The greatest good that can be ac complished in this case is that the ;boy be taken from the custody rot his parents." He made the boy a ward of the court and sent him to a mental .hospital. He placed the parents on pro- batlon from a 60-day jail sentence. "I hope they do something to :make a man out of my boy," said . Ms mother. power if the Americans pull out and leave only an inadequate U.N. polite force to back up the con stitutional government. But that would be only the first step in the Communist subversion. There is a strange conspiracy of silence concerning the Lebanese Communist Party which, although illegal, is me pest organized in me .Mideast. The world is so Intent upon the conflicting claims of rival politi cians and the presence of U.S. forces that the Communists are all but ignored which suits them perlectly. Outlawing the party actually has favored it. making its memhars and activities difficult to pinpoint iet, the Reds are found at all levels of the rebel ranks, working quietly so as not to embarrass the rebel chiefs. ine Lenanese Lommunists are the strongest and best trained in the Middle East, according to Has san Tweini, editor ol a leading Arab newspaper and former dep uty speaxer 01 parliament. Here are the facts about Ihe party that tweini gave me during an inter view: Lebanese and Syrian Commu nists are combined under one lead ership commanding 20,000 mill tants and many more sympathiz ers. The leader is a Moscow-trained Syrian, Kalid Bakdash. the wiliest Communist politician in the Arab woria.

Bakdash makes frequent trips to Moscow for instructions. He is the No. 1 man and Ihe most feared by non-Communists. Another able leader is Antoine Tabet, lawyer and architect, but best known for his editorship of a Beirut Communist Magazine which once won for him a Stalin Peace Prize. Rebel chief Raschid Karame. who controls the northern port city of Tripoli, has a Communist brother. Raschid complains pri vately that his brother, Maan Kar ame, is trying to run the show. The Communist leaders in Leb anon and Syria are mostly law yers, doctor, teacher and engi neers. The party membership of 20.000 divided roughly half-and-half between the two nations may not seem large, but no other political party has as many mili tant adherents. And it is well to remember that Russia's Bolsheviks numbered only 23.000 on the eve of the 1917 revolution. In the present Lebanese crisis, the Communist are equally at home on the barricades or in the salons of such millionaire politi cians a former premier Hussein Oueini. In Oueini's miniature Versailles Palace overlooking the Mediterra nean, the Reds quote the Koran to allay the fears of the middle class politicians. But to the masses, they preach hatred of the West and friendship for the Soviet Union and Nasser. AMERICAN BAPTIST CHURCH Sunday Services . 11 a.m. Malo Roam AHament if. High MM (aatk lk CP"...
