By Harold Morrison ’ Canadian ®ress Staff Writer
F The fact humans don’t live forever suggests China is edging towards a difficult and perhaps critical transitional period’ in- volving her leadership at home and strategy . abroad.
At ‘72, Mao Tse-tung. still is the fountain-head of China's po- litical structure. but he shows evidence of -waning physical strength and stamina. Voices of opposition are heard and stilled, only. to be faised again; ques- tioning the :path .the leader has chosen for his ‘650,000,000 peo- ple.
There. is. no evidence. of re-- bellion. Many more years may. political |

heightened Chinese: concern that -
the U.S. may be interested. in finding excuses for invading China. But if the North Vietna- mese can -pgralyse - thé power of the U.S., how much easier it would be for the. better-pre- pared Chinese to suck in, hold and perhaps exhaust all Ameri- can military power.

~Agriculture Department_offic- | ials believe there are two maj- or reasons fof the. present situa- tion: .
Some dairymen: have become

Other farmers are selling -land | 'to suburban real estate’ develop- | ers and leaving the soil altoge- ~
