...York, Albania's swart Foreign Minister Nesti Nase rasped that Chiang's government "does not represent anything." He demanded swift adoption of the so-called Albanian resolution, which prescribes the seating of the Peking regime and immediate expulsion of the Nationalists.

The Cajuns get their rice, beans and gumbo and the Mississippians their ham, greens and potatoes. Then they talk sex, watch television or play a Cajun card game called Bourée (pronounced boo-ray). To a visitor, there seems a relaxed camaraderie aboard, as though the men had achieved a kind of brotherhood through suffering. Still, there is no desire by the men to see their experience...
