For the readers of the little
red book who hate the man more
than the idea, Walter/Weatherhill
of New York and Tokyo have
just published a little yellow book.
Unfortunately (or fortunately or
who cares ? — depending on your
views) the hero could not outlast
the publication date.
The book is “Quotations from
President Liu Shao-ch’i.”
“In our foreign relations, we
consistently follow a fixed policy
of peace and advocate peaceful
coexistence and friendly coopera
tion among all nations.”
UNTIL THREE weeks ago, Liu
was one of the highest ranking
Communists in the world. A na
tional hero, he had served as
president (chairman) of the Peo
ple’s Republic of China since 1959.
But Liu has been under heavy

attack during the past few years
and the workings of the Party
he derided in 1941 finally caught
up with him.
“There are methods of struggle
outside the Party, against the
enemy and against alien elements,
and some comrades employ these
in conducting struggle against
comrades inside the Party . . .
They employ all kinds of provo
cation, estrangement, and con
spiracy. They apply ajl kinds of
administrative measures such as
surveillance, arrest, trial, impris
onment, etc., in inner-Party strug
gle.”
LIU MET these tactics in strug
gle and proved to be only the
second strongest Communist in
China. He was the head of the
“cultural revolution” in China and
openly defied many of the doc
trines of Communist Party Chair
man Mao Tse-tung. His great fall
from favor can be hinged to a
1963 speech:
“Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin,
and Chairman Mao have made
many mistakes.”
That kind of talk undoubtedly
sets none too well with a man
dedicated to passing a little red
book as a Bible and himself as
a god. Other Liu quotations were
equally liberal. He called for co
operation with non-Party groups,
including capitalists. He also sup
ported government criticism by
the masses. Finally, in 1966, he
offered anti-Mao support.
“A STUDENT of Tsinghua
(University) wrote this slogan:
‘Support the Party Central Com
mittee, Oppose Chairman Mao’
. . . Now it appears that there
is no sufficient evidence to sup
port the conclusion that this stu
dent is counterrevolutionary.”
Liu was charged with “taking
the capitalist road” and “bour
geois revisionism,” whatever that
means. But, before the capitalists
or the bourgeoisie make a hero
of Liu, they must understand
that, whatever his differences
with Mao, he is a dedicated Com
munist.
And for that reason his quo
tations should be read, just as the
works of Mao should be read; for
these are the dominant powers in
China today, and while thoughts
of a friend may be unimportant,
it is considered very wise to know
your enemy.

was copyrighted by John Weath
erhill, Inc. in Tokyo and is being
distributed in the United States
by Walker and Company, New
York City.
