...fast. Wrote the industry negotiating team to Dave McDonald: "When you are ready to recognize that collective bargaining is a two-way street, then progress will be possible." For a quarter of a century, collective bargaining had been pretty much a one-way street. If the steel industry could make it a two-way street, the steel strike might prove to be the U.S.'s most momentous labor-management clash since the great organizing battles of the 1930s...

...Peking's Mayor Peng Chen at a January rally in honor of Mexico's visiting ex-President Lázaro Cárdenas, "have common aspirations and interests in the just struggle against imperialism." More and more, with all the propaganda arts, Red China is trying to make itself the Communist model for Latin America-even at Russia's expense. Last week a team of Chinese "journalists" wound up a successful friendship tour through South America in Havana, where a fortnight ago plans were announced for a Communist-line Chinese-language daily for Cuba...
