Jackson Airs Red China Views
Another leading lecture on
world affairs advocated the
admission of Communist Chi
na to the United Nations
Wednesday morning at a
sparsley attended convoca
tion. Colin Jackson, noted Brit
ish broadcaster, lecturer and
commentator on international
politics told faculty and stu
dents that "two vetos in the
U.N. are no worse than one"
when referring to the possi
bility of Red China gaining
admission to the United Na
tions. Any legislation brought be
fore the United Nations by
Red China which did not
meet the approval of the
Western countries c o u 1 d be
stopped anyway, Jackson pre
dicted. He warned, however, that
if Red China refuses to enter
the U.N. unless Nationalist
China is ousted, then the free
world should not grant the
Communist-inspired Chinese
admission.
British, U.S. Benefit
Jackson hinted that if Red
China is admitted to the
U.N., the benefit may go to
Britain and the United
States within "five to 10
years."
"By 1965 Red China will
have the atomic bomb and
by 1980 they will "have a pop
ulation of nearly one thou
sand million. This is why the
Russians may be serious
about disarmament," he
noted.
Jackson explained that at
the present, the Russian tech
nicians sie training the Chi
nese how to be self-sufficient
and how to produce their
own effective means of war
fare. Jackson speculated that
within the near future the
Communist Chinese would be
able to "break loose" on
their own.
"I certainly can't speak for
the U.S. but as for Britain
we don't want a war between
Red China and Russia just
a little trouble," the English
humorist quipped.
He offered another way to
combat the growth of Com
munist doctrine in t h e Far
East.
Build Countries
"We should help build coun
tries in the Far I t like
India as a counter balance
when China becomes tremen
dously powerful."
Jackson termed the rela
tionship between India and
Red China as a "race of
giants" even though the eco
nomic growth of the latter
country exceeds that of In
dia. The traveling lecturer
termed the domestic side of
Red China with a witty bar
rage of adjectives dealing
with everyday life in China
from the "Communist com
munes to the p o p u 1 a t i o n
problem."
"What impressed me the
most was the extraordinary
tempo of work carried on in
Communist China today,"
Jackson said.
The people work from
6:30 a.m. to 11:45, from 12:45
to 4 p.m. and from 4:15 to
6 p.m. in the Communes.
From 7:45 p.m. on they are
given "political education"
by the Russians, Jackson
said.
All But Toothbrush
The slogan the Russians
gave the people in the Com
munes from 1948-1959 was
"Everything except the tooth
brush, including the chop
sticks, to the s t a t e," he
noted. However, they have
slacked off. The men are
given two days off a month
and the women three, not in
cluding holidays.
Jackson told the audience
that several people ask him
if the Chinese are happy.
Although happiness is a reali
tive thing, the general feeling
of the Chinese under the
Russian rule is that they are
better off than they were, he
explained.
"They were promised two
years of hell for a thousand
years of heaven already this
is an overdue promise,"
Jackson said.
He noted that the real test
ing time for Red China will
come within the next five
years. "They accept what
they have today but the ques
tion is what will they want
tomorrow," he said.
Compliments Corps
In the question-answer pe
riod following his speech,
Jackson complimented the
newly formed Peace Corps
by saying the "spirit is
right." However, he noted
several cautions that the
Peace Corps should follow:
Don't go to a country
unless invited.

(Continued from page 2)
Very soon then his blood bath began. Be
fore we threw Batista out, late in 1958,
this butcher and his gangsters, trained by
your Military Missions, using guns and
planes and tanks your Government gave
to him, had murdered some 20,000
Cubans.
". . . the Eisenhower government sold
bombs and war planes and bullets and
guns to thi gangster and dictator. They
always said it was for Hemispheric De
fense. But what is the truth? Those weap
ons were certainly not used for any such
thing as hemispheric defense .They were
used to kill Cubans. And that's one rea
son that whenever we Cubans hear talk
about 'hemispheric defense,' we shudder.
"Batista had a big mansion at Dayton a
Beach, Florida. He was cheered as a
great and noble man of the noble 'free
world' outside Cuba. In his rooms, in
glass cases, he kept his medals of honor,
received from the Yankee Government
and from other allied powers. The ones
he'd gotten earlier from Hitler and Mus
solinihe had burned up or thrown away.
"We know that you might be saying,
'We haven't done anything to you Cubans.'
We know you feel that. And that's just
the point. You haven't done anything.
"We have to be honest with you, so we
say: 'We think you just don't care.' Oh,
we don't mean that you should care about
us we'll take care of ourselves now. We
mean you don't care about what is being
done by some Yankees in your name, and
what is not being done by them. It makes
us wonder about your kind of democracy.
You can understand that, can't you?
"We are all part of 'Western Civiliza
tion' so we've always been told. But are
we really ?A11 of us? We Latin Americans
die at the average age of 35; you live
until you're past 65. Our illiterate, disease
ridden, hungry peasant masses in Bolivia
and Haiti and Venezuela, and yesterday
in Cuba are they part of the same 'West
ern Civilization' as you? If so, isn't it a
curious kind of a civilization in which
such things can go on?
"Here's another thing about the world
today we Cubans at least are becoming
very much aware of. The Communist na
tionsjust yesterday and many of them
still today they too belong to the hungry
nation bloc.
"It is that fact above all others which
we do vhare with them. And it is simply
a fact. If yon think all your catastrophes
around the world are caused by a mere
handful of conspirators stirring up trou
ble, think about the hungry-nation bloc,
Yankee. It's a lot more important than
the Communist bloc or the Capitalist bloc.
It's a lot more important to us at least,
and it's us and not the rich Yankees
we're talking about now.
"No matter what else these Communist
peoples may be or may not be, one thing
is becoming clear to us: as hungry peo
ple they are coming out of hunger. They
are building societies in which there isn't
any more of all that. But when we look
at the hungry peoples who are still under
Capitalism or as you so curiously say,
who are still 'free' we don't see that
kind of development. What we see, Yan
kee, is: people still hungry."
Justice Douglas' point is driven home.
Guns and bombs and air bases can't
drown out the growling stomachs of 6
million Cuban people, or 480 million In
dians, or 600 million Chinese.
Because we Americans eat well and
live well and safely, at least for the mo
ment, does not mean that we are always
right.
C. Wright Mills may present in "Listen,
Yankee" the extremist view of the United
States as seen by Cubans. But neverthe
less, we must realize there is another
view of the Capitalism we know.
Professor Mills, a Columbia University
instructor, has researched his story. He
spent three and a half 18 hour days talk
ing to Prime Minister Fidel Castro last
August. In addition, he met with Osvaldo
Dorticos Torrado, president of the Repub
lic of Cuba; Che Guevara, president of
the National Bank of Cuba; Raul Cepero
Bonnilla, minister of commerce; Armonde
Hart, minister of education; Carlos Fran
qui, editor of Revolucion, and other offi
cials of the Cuban government. The views
Mills expresses are not hypothetical; they
are true opinions that Cuban revolution
ists hold of the United States.
Today, however, the goals of the 1956
revolutions mainly those of smashing
Batista's dictatorship and establishing law
and raising living standards in Cuba
seen blotted by insurgent struggles for
power.
President Kennedy stated Thursday
that the inter-American doctrine of non
interference doesn't excuse non-action if
member nations fail to meet their obliga
tion of excluding outside Communist ag
gression in the American hemisphere.
This issue of American foreign policy
proves Mills' words significant: "For now
our (Cuba's) history is part of your pres
ent. And now some of the American future
is ours ,too, as well as yours."
