Heretofore, Red China's masters have dismissed rebels in scornful and deprecatory terms as "bandits," "imperialist agents," "members of the discredited Chiang Kai-shek clique." This time the Communists did not put the onus on foreign agents, but conceded the existence of a home-grown opposition to the People's Government. "The leaders of the group," said the Peking radio, "were sentenced to death...
...placed the "infernal machine" in the plane's wheel-well was an unanswered question. Before anyone could possibly know what had happened. Radio Peking had laid the blame on "secret agent organizations of the U.S. and Chiang Kai-shek,': a charge which the State Department promptly dismissed as "preposterous.'

...Nothing is said about the Kremlin mob showing evidence of good faith before such talks are held. The Conservatives hint broadly that they'll heed the Socialists' demand to cut the conscription period from the present two years. When they get around to Formosa, they urge Chiang Kai-shek to pull his troops off Quemoy and Matsu, and say: "This could lead to the reconsideration at an appropriate moment both of Chinese representation in the United Nations and the future of Formosa." That is a plain promise that if the Tories win this election they will press...
