...Ahram printed Nasser's declaration that the U.A.R. would hold the Inge Toft's cargo on the ground (rejected by the U.N. Security Council's decision in 1951) that his country was in "a state of war" with Israel. Beneath the autographed pictures of Nehru, Tito, Chou En-lai and of Hammarskjold himself, Nasser and the Secretary General talked for three hours.

Sharp-tongued and humorless, Liu Shao-chi has flicked a raw spot on nearly everyone around him. When Premier Chou En-lai suggested in a speech that no one could be considered faultless, he was forced to admit that "Chairman Mao and Comrade Liu Shao-chi and a few other leaders have achieved the stage of perfection." Liu even opposed Mao Tse-tung on the "let a hundred flowers bloom" theory...
