8 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mond jay, December 28, 1964 IMPORTING FROM Peking Would Rather Be Fed Than Dead? Associated Press- world spotlight this week de- scribes how Communist China, despite its constant castigation of capitalism, is becoming a major customer of capitalist nations and how Canada and Australia are getting most of the trade. It also discusses how Indian and. Pakistani air- lines are blazing a_ trail across Russia, and tells of ' Nehru memorial exhibi- ion. WEST Other world airlines are cast- ing envious eyes at the Indians and Pakistanis. They see the cross-Russia route as a money- and mile-saving link with the cities of the Far East, South- east Asia and Australia. Pritish Overseas Airways Corp. has opened negotiations with the Russians to fly over the Soviet Union on its Far East routes, There is no sign yet of an agreement, The London - Moscow - Delhi By THE CANADIAN PRESS Weather conditions varied across Canada during the weekend as Canadians com- pleted their Christmas celebra- tions and started preparing to welcome the new year. Heavy blowing and drifting snow developed late Sunday in southern Saskatchewan and southwestern Manitoba with winds near 30 miles an hour. The weather office said vis- ibility could be reduced to near zero as Christmas visitors made their homeward journeys. Weather warnings were issued for all eastern prairie regions and north to Manitoba's Flin Flon region. The weather also hampered transportation in the Maritimes Pan American Airlines and Aeroflot. : The proposal for the service was initialed in 1961 and re- vived last year when U.S. avia- tion officials visited Moscow. The technical groundwork for a direct Moscow-New York serv- ice has been laid, but just when the planes will start flying has still to be devided between the Soviet and American govern- |ments. ot A ae x ae Unusual Yule Weather, | Now What About Hogmenay?

Although they agree the ini- tial reason for the big switch) - to the West was the Chinese-So-} viet split, they do not believe Red China will ever again put all its trading eggs in a single Communist basket. WILL DIVIDE TRADE "It is reasonable to assume that China's foreign trade will be divided between the two dif- ferent trading systems of -the world,"says Stewart Ross, sec- retary for the British charge d'affaires in Peking. This view was supported by| a recent article in the Polish) trade magazine Polityka, which) gave a comprehensive rundown} on Communist China's foreign trade. Based on the trend shown this year, Polityka said, a further growth in trade with the West appears inevitable. Australia. occupies first place in Communist China's foreign trade. Its wheat accounts for half Peking's imports. Since 1960, it has sold 8,000,000 tons of wheat to Peking for more than $450,000,000. Canada is second with wheat again the main commodity. Since July, 1963 Canada had sold China 85,000,000 bushels at more than $150,000,000. SELLS MACHINERY Britain, China's oldest West- ern trading partner, is empha- sizing industrial machinery and supplies. Britain's total sales to Peking hit $36,400,000 in 1963, and. final figures for 1964 are expected to reach $56,000,000. Included in Britain's sales) this year are fibre and am-) monia plants. j Ninety thousand Chinese visited the British industrial ex- hibition at Peking in Novem- ber, the biggest ever staged in| Red China. Exhibits were worth $33,000,000 and the Chinese) bought at least three quarters of them on the' spot. France had sales worth $340,- 000,000 during the first half, of 1944. Much has been heavy in- dustrial equipment but' the Freneh are also offering grain to Peking and so far this year has sold nearly 500,000 tons of wheat. The French staged a heavy industrial equipment show at Peking in September and shortly after announced that two firms were building cargo ships for Red China: Another had sold an alcohol plant. DUTCH FIND MARKET This year two Dutch firms sold a palm oil processing plant and a $7,000,000 chemical plant. The Dutch have also sold ma- tine diesel engines and dredges. An Italian firm sold oil refin- ery equipment worth $10,000,000. Montecatini of Milan is building two. fertilizer plants with a yearly capacity of 300,000 tons and worth more than $20,000,- 000, The Chinese have announced purchase of $12,000,000 worth of oil refining equipment from Lurgi Gesellschaft Fur Mineral- oeltechnik in West Germany. Western experts here believe one of the most significant things about Communist Chiaa's foreign trade is that Peking does not seem to worry whether) it recognizes the country it trades with. No recognition has been given to Australia and West Germany yet the record of trade with both shows a steady increase. And for all Peking's much- vaunted hatred of capitalism, it is using Western expertise and goods for industrialization.
