The streets may be narrow in parts, but they are not filthy. All the streets of the four cities I visited in China were completely free of litter. I was told that the people had been educated to keep the *** streets clean and that if some- "one drops a piece of paper a passerby will politely remon- * strate with him. Shanghai, "known once as the _ centre of gangsterism and a city of beggars and prostitutes" *" (Encyclopedia Britannica 1962) is today the. most moral of cities. Shanghai, where people =" starved to death on the streets "and on whose thoroughfares * fathers carried babies to whose backs "'for sale" notices were ~" fixed, now is without beggars; no one is in rags and everyone has enough to eat. There is no doubt that the people have enough to eat. In . their blue cotton clothes they look poor but do not undernourished. The children look healthy and are full of energy. Westerner .. Appraises Communes seem) Luxuries are expensive, es- sentials are not. The average Salary for a worker is $28 to $32 a month (there is no income tax), but rent is never more than 10 per cent of salary. Rice 'is rationed but cheap and at the moment the ration is liberal. Eating apples (rather poor' ones) were selling at 17 cents a pound this spring, eggs three cents each and cooked ham at 50 cents a pound. A bi- cycle costs $56 and a steel wrist watch $36. In the station restaurant in Peking prices ranged from 17 cents (bacon a) to 60 cents (a pork The anti-U.S., anti-imperialist theme is played up more in Communist China than is the anti-Soviet revisionist one.

On Changan Avenue, the main} thoroughfare of Peking, are low, standardized one - storey dwellings without bathrooms. In| many cases housewives have to fetch water from a faucet in the street. In the lanes behind my hotel on Changan Avenue I saw fami- lies with one room or two rooms to live in, rooms furn- ished with rough wooden beds and upright chairs and lighted by one naked globe, population seems hardworking, docile agd anxious to do its best. China is in the dedication per- iod, like someone who has been converted to a new religion. It is similar to the Soviet Union in the 1930s and Yugoslavia in 1947. It is likely that as in those two countries, the momentum, the fanaticism, the restrictions will eventually slacken in China and China's outlook will be- come more moderate, but not perhaps for 15 years. The sudden withdrawal of So- viet technicians hampered China's progress but the depar- ture made China depend on herself, One is told with pride that China 'now. produces her own oil, enough for her home' consumption. (Anything mech- anical that isfmade in China' is pointed out, such as the Phoenix and Red Flag automobiles. There are few of these on the streets and their design is not modern but for China to be fied a considerable advance, - INDUSTRY GROWING In industry, China has made great strides but has a long dis- tance to go. One is almost staggered by the number of bicycles every- where. In the cities there are buses and trolley-buses, invari- ably filled to overflowing. Pas- senger trains are few and far between.
