TWENTY-TWO PAGES Red Purge Hits Anti-Mao Sect PEKING (Reuters)--Defence Minister Lin Piao, No. 2 man in the Chinese Communist party, indicated.in a speech published) today that the current purge would continue with some high Communist party officials still under fire. Addressing» a huge rally at- tended by Party Chairman Mao Tse-tung Thursday, Lin said that in "the present movements the main target of attack is those within the party who are in power and taking the capital- ist road." In.a §00-world summary of his ech reported by the New China News Agency, the un- | named opponents were men-| tioned four times. * "We must pull down the small| handful of people in power who are taking the capitalist road," Lin said. In contrast the other main @peaker, Premier Chou En-lai,| ¢oncentrated on the importance} of improving the nation's indus- trial and agricultural production and scientific work. All of China's top 15 Commu- nist leaders accompanied Mao at the mammoth rally, the third within a month to be staged in honor of the cultural revolution and dominated by Red Guards, who made their first appearance at the first rally four weeks ago. The leaders were listed in the New China News Agency report in the new order which has emerged since last month's plenary session of the Commu- nist party central committee, the first in four years. After Mao, Lin and Chou came Tao Chu, the party's new propaganda chief, and Chen Po-ta, head of the cultural rev- olution group under the central committee, who was absent from the second in the series of rallies. Head of State Liu Shao-chi, until recently No. 2 in the party, was listed eighth.

Cabinet: OTTAWA (CP)--Quebec will step up «ts campaign for a new Confederation of two "'nations," Premier Daniel Johnson said Thursday night after an incon- clusive federal-provincial meet- He was confident that if a referendum were called in Que- 'bec on a "two-nation" constitu- tion, 80 per cent of the voters would approve. Mr. Johnson's sweeping pro- posals to take over federal tax fields and spending programs in Quebec were attacked by some English-speaking premiers, but he expressed hope that agree- ment will be reached even- tually. "Our brief is not at all aimed at dismantling Canada," he told a press conference. "On the con- trary, we want to restore har- mony between the two language groups." The Union Nationale leader said a committee of the provin- cial legislature will be set up to define French-Canadian objec- tives and propose a new con- stitution. The committee would also be asked to recommend whether a "constituent assembly" should be convened in Quebec to draft a constitution replacing the Brit- ish North America Act of 1867. Mr. Johnson debated in a light vein with Finance Minister | o Sharp, Premier Robarts of ¥ tario and Premier Manning of press conference.

New Canadian Premier Robarts of Ontario maintained Thursday night that there is no need to write a new constitution for Canada. The British North America Act could be altered to accommodate any needed changes. 'We would be prepared to sit down . . . to examine the BNA Act and any changes that might be required," he said. "If we agree that we want to change the constitution, Ontario will participate with ideas, ben- efits and suggestions. I do not agree that we should tear up the BNA Act." At the same press confer- ence, Premier Manning of Al- berta said he regards it as "contradictory and unrealistic" to talk of one nation being two nations. He said he considers a nation to be a group of people united into a single entity without re- gard for race, languages or creed "If you concur in that, one nation being two nations is com- pletely contradictory and um realistic." Their views on constitutional change and the two - nation theory of Confederation devel- oped at a joint press confer- Johnson Cites Support For 'Two - Nations' Move government cannot afford to' yield 100 per cent of personal income taxes, succession duties and resource corporation taxes collected in Quebec, as pro- posed by the newly - elected Johnson government. The Quebec premier replied that provincial needs are rising much faster than federal re- qurements. Direct taxes were the only ones available to the province under the constitution, Mr. Sharp avoided comment on Quebec's constitutional pro posals, but said repeatedly they had not been discussed at all during the two-day closed ses- sions, Premier Johnson said his gov- ernment will strongly oppose any federal intrusion in provin- cial fields, such as university grants and medical care insur- ance. Quebec would insist on tax abatements if federal aid was offered. He again accused the federal government of showing a pa- ternalistic attitude toward the provinces.

Mr. Johnson said that Que- bec's approach at the confer- ence to tax-sharing had been put forward in the context of federal-provincial relations as a whole, including constitutional relations, He said the federal govern- ment gives the impression that the BNA Act does not exist and Quebec has no alternative to claiming 100 per cent of collec- tions from the personal and corporation: income tax fields because these are the only ones available to it under the consti- tution. Mr. Robarts was asked whether he agrees with Mr. Johnson, who had called the federal proposals at the confer- ence paternalistic.

SAIGON (AP)--Night brings blessings to the Viet Cong, but US. to change that Their idea is to turn darkfiess into light If "Batman helicopters" and "black spots" work out--enab!l- ing U.S. troops to see at night-- the scientists' threat may "be- come a reality Night fighting techniques have been inadequate in stop- ping guerrillas who know the terrain intimately. Heart of the Batman $ystem scientists are threatening is an intensely sensitive televis- ion camera that can pick up images at night. aThe camera is mounted on the front of a helicopter gun- ship and as the aircraft swirls along the camera scans the ground, photographing by the light of stars and the moon: The crew inside the ship watch an eight-inch television screen. The instant clandestine move- ment is spotted, the helicopter swoops down, guns blazing. The air force is combat-test- ing what it calls "black spot." " This also uses the night-see- ing television camera. It is mounted on a C-123 cargo plane which carries flares, infra-red and radar detectors plus an ar- senal of machine-guns, cannon and a bomb that bursts in air to spray hundreds of one-inch long metal darts--splattering: a target like a shotgun. But enemy forces with the proper equipment--as the North Vietnamese are reported to have--are able to detect such night vision de¥ices as radar and infra-red because they rad- iate electromagnetic energy. Therefore, passive night vis- ion devices that do not emit en- ergy are of top importance. They detect and and amplify energy~--as the television cam- era intensifies starlight and moonlight. The same principle applies to telescopes. and_ binoculars... The army uses in Viet Nam a hand- held scope' known as "star- light" which enables men on the ground to see enemy troops in the dark. The effect is like seeing through water. added.
