...Saigon. There was no letup in the Communists' verbal war. Peking continued to denounce the U.S. for defending South Viet Nam and heaped scorn on the President's repeated offers of unconditional negotiations. "They will be buried in the sea of a people's war," ranted Hsinhua, Red China's official press agency. "Neither 'unconditional discussions' nor 'suspension of bombing' can deceive the South Vietnamese or other people...
...answer, of course, is no. Hsinhua, Red China's official press agency, reiterated Hanoi's uninterest in negotiations by releasing a letter that North Viet Nam's President Ho Chi Minh wrote two weeks ago to U.S. Scientist Linus Pauling, a leading ban-the-bomb crusader. For the umpteenth time, Ho denounced "U.S. aggression," calling it "the sole root of the serious situation in Viet Nam and in Southeast Asia." His letter then proceeded to enunciate the unvarying set of preconditions to peace talks that Hanoi laid down last April. Once again Ho insisted that the "most...

The U.S. Communist Party called it a return to "gunboat diplomacy." In Rio de Janeiro, the newspaper Jornal do Brasil said that Johnson's moves "represent the death certificate...
...effort, of course, is propaganda and contacts with Latin American leftists. Sino-Latin American "Friendship Societies" have sprung up in Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Venezuela and, of course, Cuba; Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador and Uruguay harbor "cultural" and "youth" groups linked with Red China; the New China News Agency (Hsinhua) had "foreign correspondents" in eleven hemisphere countries at last count. From Peking itself comes 38½ hours of powerful short-wave radio broadcasts each week -in impeccable Spanish and Portuguese-railing at U.S. imperialism, urging violent revolution, sniping at the Russians and crooning about Red China's Great Leap...
