She should learn to control her unconscious mannerism of underlining important words with little negative twitches of the head.

He had always believed that the Nationalists' only chance of regaining the mainland turned on the readiness of the U.S. to lend active military support. When events-as he read them-indicated finally that the U.S. Republican Administration was not apt to do more than a Democratic Administration to put the Formosa troops back on the mainland, he abandoned hope. He argued that the Nationalists must give up the idea of returning to the mainland and make the best...
