Red China Force 42 Million Men TAIPEI (AP)--'Ihere is anja force of 30 submarines, do- old saying that if you want to find the truth abou! someone it is best to ask an eaemy. strength and of her troop dispo- sitions by top military men of Nationalist China, Peking's bit- foe: Red China has a land army of 2,150,000 men-scaled down from 2,500,000 by a 1934 reorganiza- tion. It possesses a land militia of about 40,000,000 in various} stages of training and morale, but, generally speaking, inade- pene armed with inferior] weapons. | Its air force of between 2,600 and 2,700 planes includes Il- yushin 28 bombers, MiG-15, MiG-17 and MiG-19 fighters, Re- ports that China has acquired Russian MiG-2is come from de- fectors who themselves have not seen them.

Americans In Viet Nam Plan 'Business As Usual' The American public at large and the Communist Viet Cong are helping shore up part. of President Johnson's current Viet Nam policy. The president, who is United States military and diplomatic signal-caller, isn't talking--ei- ther to the American public or to the growing array of interna- tional forces urging a negoti- ated settlement. There is no evidence that the U.S. public feels strongly one way or the other. A lull in spec- tacular Communist guerrilla ac- tivity has also been a factor. To observers, President John- son clearly wants all the elbow room he can get in a situation which can erupt into interna- tional crisis at any hour. He does not consider it timely to negotiate, either from the U.S. point of view or that of the tottering South Vietnamese ad- ministration in Saigon. Hence the cool and calculated rejection of overtures from Britain, France, Russia, the United Nations and others for negotiations, The president also is toughly resisting demands from within the United States that he take the public into his confidence and spell out Viet Nam policy, past, present and future. State Secretary Dean Rusk, in a press conference Thursday, underlined both presidential practices. Rusk said repeatedly there will be no negotiation as far as the U.S. is concerned until North Viet Nam halts aggres- sion in the south. He called this the "missing piece" in the pic- ture. He also declined under ques- tioning even to hint at what the U.S. will do in. the future if ag- gression continues, other than to refer to past statements by Johnson that action will be ap- propriate and fitting.

Cocker, the secoud young Roman Catholic priest in Brit- ain to speak out in favor of birth control despite church teaching against it, was effec- tively muzzled by his superiors yesterday. Msgr. Joseph Mullarky, vicar general of the Portsmouth dio- cese, said Father Cocker had "forfeited all his rights to speak and preach as a priest of the church" because of his views. The announcement came shortly after Father Cocker had been called from his parish--St. Mary's Ryde, Isle of Wight--to explain himself to the diocesan authorities at Winchester. Last week another priest, Rey. Arnold McMahon, who was teaching in a minor Eng- lish seminary at Droitwich, was called to Rome after writing an article which defended the right of Roman Catholics to use con- traceptives. Leaders of the Di- vine Missionary Order, to which he belonged, dissociated them- peives from his views. He has since been in retreat--cut off rom the world in prayer and meditation.

In Parry Sound, for in- stance, the police thought they had a dandy idea to have cars removed from streets so work crews could clear away a rec- ord 30 inches of snow. They would drive down the street with a sound truck, asking motorists to remove the cars. It didn't come off as planned, The sound truck be- came stuck in the middle of the street. In Orillia, where 24 inches of snow fell, several residents did their weekly shopping on skis. A tow truck employed in hauling stranded cars from the expressways and the Mac- donald - Cartier Freeway in Toronto had its battery run down just as it started to tow away a car. In Windsor, a reporter tele- phoned the provincial police headquarters to ask what snow and traffic conditions were like on the. Macdonald- Viet Nam Paper Cartier Freeway.

Rather, the justice of the Ontario Court of Appeal said, it will try to establish the facts behind last July's spectacular rise and fall in the price of shares of Windfall Oils and Mines Limited on tie Toronto Stock Exchange. The shares soared to $5.60 from 56 cents on rumors that the company had made a rich base-metals find on its property in Prosser Township near Tim- mins. They plunged more than $3 overnight after the company announced no ore had been found. The one-man royal commis- sion was set up in August to investigate the. activity in the shares. It will also examine the role of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the Ontario Se- curities Commission and' rec- ommend such legislation as it) sees fit. Mr. Justice Kelly said an an-| ticipated sitting today will not be held and the hearings will resume in Timmins Monday. First witness in Timmins is to be Ken Darke who discov- ered the $2,000.000,000 orebody for Texas Gulf Sulphur near Timmins last year. Mr. Darke has since left Texas Gulf and is self - employed. He will be must face the consequences." Those consequences became apparent today when the vicar- general, who administers the diocese for the Bishop of Ports- mouth, said: "Father Cocker has chosen to oppose the accepted and author- itative teachings of the Roman Catholic Church on contracep- tive. In so doing he forfeits his right to speak and preach as a priest of the church, He has been informed by me that his facilities to perform any public preaching functions are with- drawn." Father Cocker said he ac- cepted the statement and was going into retreat. He said he would not return to his parish in Ryde, According to canon law, Father Cocker still may say mass and perform the other spiritual duties of priests, but cannot preach, 'CAN'T WATCH' When Father Cocker spoke out in defence of Father Mc- Mahon he said: "I den't know him but I can't silently watch what is happening to him. and priests of. my own age some sort of birth control." devices.
