ORF.OON PAGE SEVEN Chinese Commune Drive Could Embarrass Soviets Say Diplomatic Reports LONDON (UPH - Diplomatic dispatches from behind the Iron Curtain reported today mounting tension between Moscow and Peiping over Red China's "com munes" drive. Success or failure could cause Tiussia serious embarrassment. Red China has just ordered a low-down in the drive for the ant-heap Communist society which it has been pushing with complete disregard for human en durance. But latest reports said the slow down applied chiefly- to cities, whereas the "Communist-now" strategy remained in full swing throughout China's countryside. Much is at stake for Red Chi na's regime as well as for the Soviet Union, the authoritative reports warned. Success of Peiping's forced sys tem of communes would make Red China the first world Com munist society and steal the march on the Soviet Union's claim to leadership. Its failure, on the other hand, could seriously shake the Peiping regime and thus have grave rep ercussions for the Soviet Union and the Communist regimes in the satellite states in Europe. The reports cited strong evi- NY Piihlkhor 111 HNIIHIIVI Dies In SF SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -Seymour Berkson, 53, publisher of the New York Journal-American and former general manager of Inter national News Service, died of a heart attack Sunday in his room at the Mark Hopkins Hotel.

The giant ocean-going ferry pent the night at sea rather than risk a trip through the two-mile long channel into port Sunday night. Winds up to 35' miles an hour sprang up shortly before the vessel was due here. The City of Havana, which brought 508 passengers into port late Saturday, planned to return to Havana this afternoon and of ficials said it would take along any passengers who wished to go, GLAMOR GIRLS dence that the hastened develop ment towards a Communist so ciety in Red China has caused considerable worries in Moscow and above all to Soviet leader .MKila Khrushchev personally. Officially, the Soviet Union ha: maintained a studied silence and little has been said in the press But Moscow was understood to have cautioned Peipirg in definite icrms against its over-hasty com munes drive wnich Russia her self tried and quickly dropped in me eariy stages ot the revolution Moscow was oelieved to have in effect urged Red China to abandon the explosive policy or, if this proved impossible, at least to go easy in her own interest and in that of continued solidarity oi woria communism. Russia under Khrushchev's di rective has in effect taken almost an opposite course. Her latest seven-year economic plan, despite us ambitious targets, has been officially termed merely the be ginning of "a new stage in the development of the Soviet on the way to Communism." Some reports suggested that the conflict has resulted in a head-on collision between Khrush chev and Red Chinese leader Mao Tse-tung. Last month Peiping in a sur prise move officially gave notice of its intention to slow-down the communes drive. The decision was taken by the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist party Dec. 10 and ex perts believed it was the result of a combination of Soviet pros sure and menacing internal stresses. These stresses apparently be came serious when Peiping de cided to extend the system of communes to the cities after it had been forced upon the country side with appalling speed and ruthlessncss. Reports reaching the outside world revealed opposition in the cities from workers and intellec tuals. Apparently sensing the dan ger, the Peiping authorities swift ly called for a slow-down and for modifications in the general scheme. In grimness the scheme compares well with the nightmare phantasy of British writer George Orwell s 1984 vision of a totali tarian state. However, the main Red Chinese target has not been abandoned and there was no suggestion of revers ing the policy which has already engulfed 99 per cent of all the peasant households in China, ac cording to authoritative reports. The communes are formed by the mergers-lock, stock and bar rel of neighboring agricultural cooperatives. Life is organized on military lines. The last vestige of personal freedom is wiped out, and home and family life are to tally disrupted. The establishment of common mess halls and nurseries free the women for full-time work. The creation of industry in rural areas as an integral part of the com munes reduces the living stand ards of industrial workers to the lower levels of agricultural workers. Official Chinese publications have revealed these developments: Each, commune includes, up to 10,000 households and in' some cases even more. Members serve the state primarily in agricultural production, but must also serve in any other type of work assigned to them, from industry and min ing, to public construction works, Thev lead a communal exist ence, possess virtually nothing and are paid the wages and work tne hours of farm hands, regardless of the work performed. The degree of ruthlessness was reflected in a recent review in the party organ, the Peoples daily, which said that "in order to break down superstition and to increase arable land the original graves are to be removed and dug deeper. Some factory buildings and walls of kilns have been erect ed with tablets from grave yards." C IMfc Hint FMUim SyntUut toe, Wertt tlthu "His clock may stop, but he always knows what day it is."
