European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - August 28, 1959, Darmstadt, Hesse The stars an5 stripes Friday August 28, 1959 red China believed still exaggerating Forward leap Washington up govern ment economists said they believe communist China s leaders still Are grossly exaggerating their production claims in the great leap for Ward officials Here said the chinese communist Central committee was not nearly so Frank As it tried to appear in its admissions of pad Ding earlier production claims. Particularly in food Grain production there is evidence that the claims Are still More fantasy than fact according to China experts s admission of exaggeration in 1958 production reports and Over optimism in its 1959 goals was described As a move to convince the world that its reports now Annbe trusted. This presumably would set the stage far glowing Progress reports oct. 1, when leaders of the communist world will assemble in piping for red China s 10th anniversary Celebration. There is still considerable doubt Here that communist China will succeed in its Campaign to pass Britain in Industrial production by the originally scheduled 15-year deadline much less the 10-year target set by Premier Chou in Lai. . Officials believe they have evidence that none of the figures for Grain Cotton steel and Coal output can be trusted. For example they noted that City Grain rations actually have been reduced this year and ration ing has come to the peasantry through the use of meal tickets in the rationing cannot be explained by withholding for Export because exports amount to Only a fraction of 1 per cent of the claimed total production. Nor can it be explained by recent flood Sand droughts because rationing was introduced before these Nat ural calamities occurred this sum Mer. The Central committee s Declara Tion and the initial piping propaganda handling of it did not indicate to american experts any revolt against Mao tse Tung leadership. Officials said the political con sequences of the cutback in production goals were not yet apparent. It was recalled that Mao was personally responsible for the highly ambitious production increases in the great leap Forward Campaign which has now been drastically scaled Down. However the blame for failure to meet these targets was placed by the Central committee on regional and local communist functionaries rather than on the party Bosses or any party faction. The commune movement another of Mao s personal projects Drew very Little mention although it had been expected by foreign observers to be a main subject of study at the committee meeting. What comment the communes did receive in the final communique amounted to Complete endorse ment although there was implied admission of earlier failures which piping said have since been corrected. � and away he goes trailing smoke a Pilot s seat holding Dummy is ejected from fast moving Jet fighter at Philadel phia Yard.
