Red China Achieves Status Of World Power, Challenges Soviet Union, Professor Notes By PHIL NKWSOM I'PI Foreign News Analyst China always has had "big ness." Now it has "organized bigness." Prof. Clioh Mins Li, chairman of the center for Chinese studies at the University of California, has drawn up a balance sheet of Red Chinese achievements and concludes that "China has at tained for the first time in mod ern history the status of a world power." "It has," he notes in the cur rent issue of Challenge magazine, "extended its political and econ omic influence to as far away as Cuba in the Western Hemisphere. Albania in Eastern Europe. Guinea and Ghana in Africa, not to mention the Chinese military adventures in the Far East and Southeast Asia." And it is from this position of strength that Red China now cliallenges the Soviet Union and Nikita Khrushchev for leader ship of the Communist world, de spite serious and continuing prob lems at home. Economic Study Professor Li's study is primar ily economic. He notes that Red China reached its present status both with the help of its military pact with the Soviet Union and through effective political control of the people. But the chief contributing fac tor, he believes, was Red China's industrialization which enabled her to more than quadruple pro ductive capacity in the years from 1(154 through 1!58. enhanc ing her military might. This, was Uie "great leap for ward" which in li)i8 merged with the rural communes. The communes were to do for agri culture what already was being done industrially. But mismanagement, three years of drought and a miscal culation of the effects of human nature reversed the great leap forward which then became the "great fall backward." Forced Into Market China was forced into the world market to buy grains, to restore private plots to the peas ants and permit a limited amount of capitalism. This year, with the help of the private plots, grain production is reported about back to the 1958 leveL Industrially, other reports say the Chinese still arc having trouble. Steel production last year may have been about half of the peak of 18 million tons reported in I960. A shortage of coal is said to liavc reduced all heavy industry lo about 60 per cent of capacity. But with all her difficulties, Red China has neither cased up on her dispute with the Soviet Union nor slowed her economic offensive abroad. Professor Li points out that since 1954.

Martin, an auto dealer, and a former mayor, was selected by a unanimous vote of the city council. - House of Representatives over fi nal approval of the Northwest Power Preference bill. Sen. Henry M. Jackson, D-Wash., told t h c Washington State Labor Council convention here today. Passage of the measure, Jack son said, would safeguard region al interests in the event of a power intertie with the Southwest. The bill has been passed by the Senate and now awaits action in the House Interior Committee where it has strong opposition. It would pavethe way for an intertie that would permit Bonne-! villc Power Administration to market surplus power in Califor nia without danger to any re quirements of Northwest consum ers. "These additional Bonneville re venues would mean that the like lihood of a power rate increase would be lessened," Jackson said. "Without this legisation, large industries, which buy power di rectly from BPA, would have to shoulder the full impact of any rate increase. This could force some of these plants to curtail operations and jobs would be af fected." Paris Workers Call Strike PARIS 'CPU The Communist-led General Confederation of Workers iCGTi called today for a one-day strike Thursday to pro test a government-sponsored anti strike law. The law. if passed by the cham ber of deputies, will require pub lie utilities employes, such as subway workers, to give five days' notice before striking. Certain pedestrians, called jay walkers, get their name from the jay bird, which usually runs after things diagonally. PF Flyers tPoMnre I oanditlflnl for every member of the family!
