...sunny office on the second floor of the White House's West Wing, a myriad of complicated details were sorted out for this week's visit of China's Teng Hsiao-p'ing. There, too, strategy was being mapped for steering the President's budget through Congress, fighting inflation and rallying support for SALT. The office is a control tower for the Administration, and much of the credit for the improving management of Jimmy Carter's White House these days is being given to the tower's occupant: Anne Wexler...
...visit of China's spry, shrewd Vice Premier Teng Hsiao-p'ing is the stunning climax of the Great Leap Outward that he conceived, planned and executed for China after decades of xenophobic isolation. It marks the first official visit to the U.S. by a top-level Chinese leader since the Communist takeover in 1949. Nearly five years ago, when he was China's Deputy Premier, Teng flew to New York to address the U.N. General Assembly, but he was not an official visitor; Washington and Peking did not have full diplomatic relations. This time Teng rates the complete ceremonial...
...final details. Administration officials briefed hundreds of U.S. farmers, businessmen and labor leaders on the minutiae of U.S.-Chinese relations.

...Washington prepared last week, with the help of a nine-member Chi nese advance delegation from Peking, for the arrival on Jan. 28 of Chinese Vice Premier Teng Hsiao-p'ing, the first official visit to Washington by a Chinese Communist leader. The Teng summit posed more delicate problems for the White House than the spelling of names. The Chinese had requested the opportunity of meeting "old friends" in the U.S., including former President Nixon, whose own visit to China in 1972 paved the way for U.S.-Chinese diplomatic normalization. In fact, Teng wanted to stop off at Nixon...
...Evenhandedness" is the Administration's motto for dealing with China and the Soviet Union these days. President Jimmy Carter and Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski both recognize that Washington's announcement of diplomatic relations with Peking, plus next week's visit by Teng Hsiao-p'ing, provoked the Soviets to stall on a new SALT treaty and a summit meeting between Carter and Leonid Brezhnev. In Washington, the Cabinet-level Policy Review Committee on China has recommended that the President avoid any steps that could be construed as a "tilt" toward China at the expense...
