After a trip to Britain's Hong Kong to file some copy and get some rest, Doyle cabled: "Since my wife and I came to China unencumbered with household goods, we can watch with a relaxed eye the pell-mell evacuation of Shanghai by those with loads of furniture and the ever present tung-hsi (things) that you collect out here...
Ryan's 45,000 rank & file, who had disregarded a previous agreement which Ryan had made, accepted the terms by an overwhelming vote. Some 250 ships in ports from Maine to Virginia, tied up for 18 days at an estimated loss of $30,000,000 a day in New York City alone, began to move. Longshoremen began loading some $36,000,000 worth of piled-up Marshall Plan cargoes...
