China after Mao
Sir, — “Revolution is the main trend in the world today,” says the late Chairman Mao, and C. E. Field may be quite right that there will be turmoil. But as long as the purpose of the revolution is to uphold Marxism-Leninism and Mao Tse-tung thought, then there is no need to worry about the future. The thoughts of Mao are the guiding principle, and who will doubt this after watching TV and seeing the thousands of grief-stricken Chinese filing past his funeral. There will always be doubters, for as Chairman Mao says in his poem: “On this tiny globe/ A few flies dash themselves against the wall/Humming without cease/Sometimes shrilling/Sometimes moaning.” — Yours, etc., P. J. ALLEY. September 14, 1976.
