...Under Mao Tse-tung, Canton (pop. 2,500,000) apparently is still the same old city. While the rest of China has been subsiding toward some measure of normality, pro-and anti-Mao factions in Canton last week continued to fight the battles of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution. Radio Canton warned that local party officials opposing Mao were "increasingly more cunning, insidious and vicious." The Maoist Southern Daily shrilled that the "crucial moment" was at hand in the clash between Canton's "two classes, two roads and two lines in the cultural revolution...
...officials in many countries, but never to our knowledge has anyone stamped a rub-out X on the cover.* Last week we learned that in Taiwan authorities had ordered the Formosa Magazine Press, TIME's distributor, to stamp a three-inch blue cross upon the puffy features of Mao Tse-tung on the Jan. 13 cover. The distributor hand-stamped the thousand or more copies (exclusive of those for the U.S. military) that circulate in Taiwan. Earlier, the Taiwanese have occasionally stamped our pictures of Red Chinese figures with the word Kungfei, or Communist bandit. Deliveries...

It would be risky to draw any neat lessons from this parallel between past and present. Perhaps the only sure thing to be concluded is that nothing in the world's oldest continuing...
...What Mao is attempting to do, in effect, is to replace the lingering ideal of harmony-using as much of it as he can for his own devices-with a modern, dynamic system of dialectic struggle. In trying to accomplish this, he must cope with every ancient phase of Chinese mentality, from its basic view of man to the minutest daily practices. The traditional Chinese view of the universe does not, as in the West, see a struggle between good and evil. The famous principles of Yin and Yang imply an alternate cosmic rhythm but not a struggle...
...which later turned into a 35? magazine, when he got tired of working as a "Negro architect" with Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. His hatred for whites as well as many of his fellow Negroes is apparently inexhaustible. On the other hand, his love knows no bounds for the likes of Mao Tse-tung, Malcolm X, Gamal Abdel Nasser, and Adam Clayton Powell...
