...turn of the Russian tide had diverse signs: Andrei Vishinsky, in token of the new Russian conciliatory line at the U.N. Assembly, went to Mass; Chou En-lai went to Nanking; an order for removal of the Zeiss factory went to Jena (see FOREIGN NEWS). Noting the signs, the West would do well not to crow in triumph; at best, democracy had won only time to put its own addled house in order, clear up its own inconsistencies and injustices. But in winning that time, the policy of "patience and firmness" to Russia had paid...

Observers, recalling the North Kiangsu offensive launched during Chiang's summer absence at Kuling, decided to wait and see. They saw plenty...

Do the Communists want to continue their attempts to seize political power by armed force...
...Newcomers. Not Chou En-lai but two lesser Communists, Wang Ping-nan and Liao" Cheng-chi, publicly made the secession threat. Both came some months ago from Chungking to Nanking, where they have been relatively obscure members of the Communist delegation. Wang is solemn, homely, rather likable. He is direct, clipped in speech, and generally uses an interpreter though he understands English well. His wife is a Polish Communist, who is said to have strong influence over him. Liao also speaks excellent English, out of the corner of his mouth. The emergence of Wang and Liao, like the emergence...
