Unseen Kremlin Hand Guides China, Junior Red Partner
By M. Siva ram
North Amor icon Newspaper Alliance
BOMBAY. May 15.—Mao Tse
tung's China has cast its lot with
Soviet Russia and It is the unseen
hand of the Kremlin that guides
the Peiping government.
The consolidation bf the Chi
nese Communist government has
Third of five article* recounting a
newsman's "nightmare" in Peiping,’
where the writer, educated in England
and regarded a* an authority an the
Far East after 20 years of newspaper
work there, recently spent two months.
been exclusively of the Soviet pat
tern. Peiping’s foreign policy and
defense program are irrevocably
linked with those of Moscow. Red
China’s military intervention in
Korea and expansionist plans in
Southeast Asia form part of Com
munism’s global strategy.
I discussed this Sino-Soviet link
up with Communist officials, non
partisan Chinese and members of
Peiping’s diplomatic colony.’ The
consensus was that the new China
is something between a satellite of
Russia and a junior partner in the
Kremlin-led struggle for Commu
nist domination on a global scale.
And the Russians have made it
certain that Mao* does not turn
Tito.
Sinr Russian Praises.
Everywhere you turn, anywhere
In China, you are impressed by the
extent of Soviet influence in every
field of governmental activity.
The police system and the con
trol of foreigner? remind you of
the OGPU (Soviet secret police).'
The press and propaganda organ
ization and the stringent control
of public thought and speech are
unmistakably of the Soviet pat
tern. Russian has become the
most-favored foreign language in
Communist China.
Chinese Communist leaders sing
the praise of the Soviet Union,
openly worship Josef Stalin as
“jagad-guru” (world teacher) and
urge their countrymen to follow
suit. Stalin’s photographs are
found even at small district police
stations.
Adoration of Soviet Russia has
become the pre-eminent national
institution of the New China. The
people are persuaded to believe
that Russia’s friends are China’s
friends, that Russia’s enemies are
China’s enemies, that by fighting
for Russia, China is lighting for
her own existence.
Number of Advisers Secret.
Just how many Soviet advisers
are employed by the people’s gov
ernment of China is one of the
most closely guarded secrets of
the Communist regime. But it is
well known that Russian advisers
and experts, by the thousands,
have been forced on the Chinese
government in almost every minis
try and department, especially the
defense services. In Peiping alone,
according to a reliable authority,
there are at least 3,000 Soviet ad
visers employed by the China gov
ernment. The Chinese navy and
air force alone, according to un
official estimates, employ about 10
thousand Soviet instructors and
technicians.
Chinese people look aghast at
the big brood of “da bietze” (big
noses) as they move about in
limousines, enjoying a life of lux
ury amid the poverty and reduced
standards of living that the “lib
eration” has brought for them
selves.
Near Peiping’s Temple of
Heaven one day. I drew the at
tention of Chang, my jinrikiman,
to a large group of Russians.
Chang took one look at them and
spat on the ground—an eloquent
commentary on the common
man’s regard for the new allies.
Rest of World Enemies.
The strategy of the Soviet “in
vasion” of China is twofold—the
alienation of China from the rest
of the world, especially the non
Soviet power bloc and the con
solidation of Soviet power and in
fluence in the country through
persuasion, pressure and promises
It was Soviet influence and ad
vice that prompted the Chinese
Communist government to occupy
the American military barracks
in Peiping and to precipitate a
break with the United States. It
is Soviet advice and influence
that has taught the Chinese gov
ernment to distrust its friends in
the neutral camp, including the
fiee nations of Asia. The in
fluence of the Kremlin is so ef
fective that official China has!
today come to consider the
U. S. S. R. and her satellites as
China’s only friends and the rest
of the world as enemies or poten
tial enemies of the Chinese Re
public.
Soviet pressure and persuasion
seem to have convinced the
Chinese Communist leaders that
the United States and other "Im
perialist powers” are bent on des
troying the new regime and that
they must fight these powers for
their own survival. In Korea and
Tibet, the Chinese leaders have
apparently swallowed the Soviet
bait: they may follow suit in
Indo-China later.
Defending Homeland.
In Korea, the Soviet argument
which presumably forced the Chi
ijese military intervention, was
simple. The Japanese first took
Korea and then marched into
Manchuria and later invaded
China. The United States is
bound to follow the same pattern
of conquest and must, be stopped
in Korea for the safety and sur
vival of China.
Chinese official statements, out
lining the policy on Korea, have
often stressed that the Chinese
forces fighting in Korea are really
defending the Chinese homeland.
In Tibet, again, Chinese mili
tary intervention was understood
to have been inspired by Soviet
Russia. The Soviet argument in
this case was that an American
inspired conspiracy was afoot for
the control of Tibet by "imperial
ist” forces, with a view to attack
ing China from the rear and that
China must act in time to foil
the "imperialist plot.”
The Chinese people look aghast
at these fateful developments and
wonder what the next will be.
Silent and helpless, they watch
China “ride the tiger” (in this
case, the Soviet bear) and whis
per to themselves, 'in fear and
anxiety: "Whither China

Bishop Francis Joseph Padewski

Informants aid an autops:

The American Embassy officials
