CHINESE PRESTIGE: WANES Peking By HAROLD MORRISON .... 'anadian Press Staff Writer Alt may be too early to suggest at Uncle Sam is calling the pd dragon's bluff, but persist- nt U.S. air strikes in North iet Nam must raise the ques- on of whether China is really eady and anxious to engage in direct collision with Ameri- an military power. With the largest land forces the world and preparations nder way for its second nu- lear test, China's prestige as world power is at stake as orth Viet Nam takes an air ating day after day. Where is the massive Chi- /hese action promised the North jetnamese if their territory twas hit by the "Yankee imper- alists"?

Both Soviet Premier Kosygin nd China's Mao Tse-tung have ade strong sympathetic ges- ures towards North Viet Nam's 'o Chi Minh.

The North Vietnamese would rather not have witnesses to border crossings of outside military help. But now the American air strikes in northern territory have been continuing for some weeks.Why hasn't there been immediate and massive inter- ceptor air defence? The Soviet position may be understandable. Kosygin is new and wants to move with ex- treme caution. After all, main- land China, North Viet Nam, North Korea, Albania and Ro- mania did not turn up at the gathering of Communist parties in Moscow. And while those who did at- tend blasted the 'barbarous bombings" in North Viet Nam, there seemed to be a lack of clarity as to what Moscow is going to do about it. Communist China is in a dif- ferent position. Peking seemed in recent years just to be wait- ing for the chance to tangle with the Americans. It boasted of its power and rejected as cowardly the Nikita Khrushchev warning that American nuclear strength is more than that of a paper tiger. Yet in North Viet Nam the Americans are blasting away, sending out great squadrons of planes and losing only a few at a time from ground fire.

However, strikes and lockouts End Friday Fish Day VATICAN CITY (AP) -- A brief remark ina speech by Pope Paul Wednesday brought speculation that changes may be forthcoming in Roman Cath- olic rules requiring abstinence on Fridays. Speaking at his general audi- ence on Ash Wednesday, Pope Paul noted that the practice of 'asting during Lent has been reduced to two days, Ash Wed- nesday and Good Friday. In the past, all Wednesdays and Fridays of Lent were days of fast and abstinence. He said "the usual law of abstinence every Friday re- mains in force for the present."

By 30-to-26 approval the Sas- katchewan Liberal government's first budget in 20 years was ap- proved, but in Alberia the dis- cussion on a record $493,782,862 budget has just begun. Alberta Provincial Treasurer A. 0. Aalborg said in his bud- et speech an expected deficit of $22,638,852 will be paid from government reserves in order to avoid tax increases or borrow- ing. He also announced that de- velopment of the province's oil and natural gas resgurces is ex- pected to pay almost half the $391,000,000 government operat- ing expenses in the new fiscal year. The Saskatchewan budget es- timated revenue of about $220,- 000,000 during 1965-66 with a $250,000 surplus. | ' Acting opposition leader J. H. Brockelbank (CCF--Kelsey) de- scribed the budget as clever and smart but "not quite honest."

Quebec--George Marler, Lib- eral leader in the Legislative Council (Senate), told the body that it would be abolished if it rejects a bill curtailing its own powers. The bill would curb the council's power to delay mofiey bills passed by the Legislative Assembly and restrict its power to block other bills. Quebec is the only province with an ap- pointed upper house. New Brunswick--Premier Ro- bichaud said he had not in- structed his department to take precautions to apprehend Lu- cien Rivard.

Mr. Rowntree said the com- pulsory arbitration would be carried out by a_ three-man board. The settlement reached by the board would be limited to one year's duration, unless both labor and management agreed to a longer period. The labor minister said he was confident parties in hospital disputes would settle their dif- ferences at the bargaining ta- ble, and that instances where unions of their right to strike. ! Labor Minister Leslie Rown- ) tree introduced a bill in the leg- islature that will force com- {pulsory arbitration in hospital disputes.

PEKING : (Reuters) -- The Peking People's Daily says 4 glance at the Soviet press makes it. clear that former premier Nikita Khrushchey is not 'dead and buried," al- though he has vanished from the politica: arena. This comment is contained in an editor's note on an item headed: "Look what sort of propaganda is in the Soviet press these days." | The item contains excerpts from "representative materials published recently in the Soviet press."' "Since Khrushchev's downfall the Soviet press .. . has in- sisted to the Soviel people and the people of the world that the mantle of Khrushchevism must not be cast aside. that there must be no change in the link of the 'three peacefuls and two entires'," the editor says. These are identified as peace- ful co-existence, peaceful com- petition and peacetul transition, plus the state of the. entire people and the party of the en- tire people. "Acting on the dictates of ithis erroneous line, the Khrush- lchev revisionists have put on one ugly performance after an- other against the Communist party of China and other Marx- ist - Leninist parties, creating a split in the international Com- munist movement and in the Socialist camp." The editor concludes: "Can those who believe in Khrush- chev revisionism escape the sad end of Khrushchev himself, un- less they change their ways?" NEED... | FUEL OIL?
