WASHINGTON — It is becoming
more nnti more obvious that the
feud between Rod Chinn and Russia
is very real, very bitter, very deep.
As this column reported when some
observers thought the ouster of Pre-
mier Khrushchev would lead to a
thaw in Chinese - Soviet, relations, no
real friendship between the two is
possible.
nicy are and always have been
“natural enemies, from the time
the hordes of Mongols poured out of
Asia and overran much of eastern
Europe. The Russians are national-
ists even more than they are com-
munists, and the fear of another
Chinese thrust westward is always
with them.
The Chinese also have a histori-
cal background of anti-Russianism.
They have never forgotten or for-
given the way the Russians seized
eastern Siberia during the past cen-
tury, nor the concessions that Rus-
sia forced on the old Chinese empire.
While the Soviets helped the Chin-
ese communists rise to power, they
did so more as a step toward world
communism than from any love of
the Chinese themselves. Then when
the present Peking leadership began
challenging Moscow for control of
world communism, Russia began
backing away It curtailed technical
and economic aid, refused to share
its secrets of the atom bomb, in ef-
fect told the Chinese leaders they
has developed its own atomic bomb,
and emerged as a major military
power fully as dangerous to Russia
as to the Western world.
Further, Moscow has done some
growth. By 1975 it calculates there
will be S00 million Red Chinese, and
early in the next century — only a
few "years away now— there will be
two billion.
Already there is military friction
along the thousands of miles of bor-
der separating Red China and Rus-
sia. As Red Chinas population and
military power grow, every indica -
tion is that the outbreaks will in *

crease.
Thus the Soviet Union has every
reason to fear the expansion of Red
China as much or more than any
other nation, and this carries deep
significance for the United States.
Ever since Khruschev came to the
United States in 1969, Soviet _ diplo-
mats have been admitting this pri-
vately. Adzhubei, Khntschevs son-
in-law, even told the West Germans
that Russia had always stood as the
guard between Western Europe and
the Mongols of the East, and was
willing to continue to do so.
The United States — and Western
Europe — therefore know that Rus-
sia’s fundamental security interests
lie with the West and not the East.
Khrushchev recognized this with his
co-existence polio’. The present lead-
ers of the Kremlin have recognized
it also — by not acting to aid Red
China, by limiting their aid to North
Viet Nam, by opposing the Red Chi-
nese in Africa.
The chief problem snarling U. S.-
Soviet relations today is the Viet
Nam War. The Kremlin is as an-
xious to have it solved as we are. But
because of Red China’s challenging
role. Soviet leaders must tread with
extreme care They cannot abandon
another communist nation fighting
‘Western imperialism; they cannot
force it to seek peace.
However bitter this may be to the
United States, this means that the
initiative for peace in Viet Nam must
come from the U. S., and we must
eventually make concessions that will
bring an end to the war.
We must pay that price for the
sake of the much more important
improvement of U. S. - Soviet rela-
tions — because otherwise we both
may face a militant atomic enemy
separately in the not very distant
future.
SOAKING THE TAXFAVEM
The B. B. McCormick Construction
Company of Jacksonville, Fla., is
sending "an interesting assortment of
men to South Viet Nam to build an
air base, and paving them twice what
they could make at home.
federal government. And when he
promised to put a Northerner in
charge of California's water pro -
jects. the Los Angeles Times blasted
him for playing politics with water-
something it said Gov. Brown had
never done.
One Jacksonville barber will get
about $1,400 a month. Frank Mack-
ery, a funeral embalmer, also will bo
paid about S1.400 a month as an as-
sistant medical officer in Saigon. One
deputy sheriff hired as a security’
guard will get $3,000 a month. Thais
$38,000 a year for a deputy sheriff
from Jacksonville.
The final tab goes to the taxpayers.
WHAT PRICE INNOCENCE?
Isidore Zimmerman, the man who
served 24 years in New York pri-
sons charged with a crime which he
didn't commit, and who was finally
released from prison with official
apologies, was fired the other day
as doorman of the Parker Crescent
Apartment House at 225 East 36th
Street in New York City.
Zimmerman, after a long period of
being desperately hard up for work,
finally was doing well as a doorman
when the story of his life came out in
the Inside Detective magazine. Im-
mediately William Dickens, manager
of the apartment house, fired him
because of his “record".
There are times, considering man's
inhumanity to man, when Zimmer-
man almost wishes he were back
behind the walls of Sing Sing, where
at least he got three meals a day.
REAGAN’S FOOT -IN-MOUTH
The reason for Ronald Reagan's
drastic slump in the political polls
in California Is not so much Gov. Pat
Brown’s campaigning, but because
almost every time Reagan opens his
mouth he puts his foot in it.
When he talked about floods, he
told how Hollywood actors had rais-
ed money to combat Oregon floods
without calling on the federal gov-
ernment. He didn’t know that mil-
lions of dollars had come front the
More recently the embarrassed Mr.
Reagan has flatly refused to reject
his right-wing political supporters,
including t h c John Birch Society
members who are contributing to his
campaign.
Incidentally, the John Birch So -
ciety recently announced that the
United States is now controlled by the
“Communist conspiracy” up to 90
per cent.
When the Birch Society was found-
ed in 195S, for the purpose of com-
bating communism, it said the U. S.
was 40 per cent communistic.
If you want to accept their figures,
that eouid mean that in just the
eight years the society has been
fighting communism they've persuad-
ed around SO million people to go
over to the communists.
Incident ally, J. Edgar Hoover,
whom the Birchers praise, doesn’t
agree with their figures. He says
we’re less titan 10 per cent commun-
istic.
The amazing thing about this is
that it was written by a man de-
scribed as a “liberal activist He
is circulating a twelve page letter
urging that control of the Demo -
cratic party in his home state of
Texas be wrested from the Johnson -
dominated conservatives.
When I was in high school, it was
the conservatives who cried for A -
merica to practice “isolationism".
They wanted nothing to do with for-
eign countries. Their watch word was
George Washingtons phrase. “A -
void entangling alliances".
Today, it is the normally liberal
thinkers who are calling for the U -
nited States to extricate itself from
Met Nam. Walter Lippman, the most
brilliant of political analysts, says
we are in serious trouble there. The
conservatives are urging more in -
volvement.
The Declaration of Independence
by our forefathers claimed the right
of any subject peoples to revolt a-
gainst unjust government. Yet the
American troops have been used in
most of our history to suppress any
revolution for freedom in the hemi-
sphere. An American army invad-
ed Russia when the people revolted
against the worst tyrants in human
history, even before the communists
took final control.
The coming of gun powder made
the lone swordsmen and knights ob-
solete. The rise of mighty arma -
nients eliminated the little nations
'flam tile world - power struggles.
Today, the possession of even three
hydrogen bombs would make the
smallest nation a power to bo re-
spectfully dealt with.
The North Vietnamese ruler of
South Met Nam has begged and
urged American troops to stay in.
With the rising tide of resentment
against the war in America, he has
said that he is trying to hasten tiie
