...Despite this help, North Korea is anything but a Soviet satellite. Kim has refused to dispatch a delegation to Moscow's conference of the world's Communist parties this June. He remains equally cold to the Chinese, neglecting to send even a routine message of greetings to Mao's Ninth Party Congress, currently in progress in Peking. He has a good excuse: the Chinese barely acknowledged North Korea's 20th-anniversary celebrations last year, and during the carefree days of Red Guard rioting Kim was assailed as a "disciple of Khrushchev" and a "fat revisionist." Until...
...exile for the past 20 years on the island of Taiwan, he is a living anachronism. Chiang is still widely recognized-at least in formal diplomatic terms- as the representative of all China. Yet even that is beginning to change, as some Western nations stir toward explicit acknowledgment of Mao Tse-tung's rule of the mainland.

Mao's Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution appears to have drawn to a close, and it is possible that Peking may return to more flexible foreign policies that could undermine Taiwan's international position. Taipei realizes that Washington would like nothing better than a relaxation of tensions with Peking. Besides, a more rational Chinese Communist view of the world would persuade more nations not only to recognize Mao's regime but also to swell the annual vote in favor of Peking's admission...
...conflict began at noon on Wednesday. About 250 students from Harvard and Radcliffe, most of them members of Students for a Democratic Society and the pro-Mao Progressive Labor Party, appeared outside University Hall, the three-story administration building at the center of Harvard Yard. They reiterated six "unnegotiable" demands made on the Harvard Corporation.*The issues: the abolition of ROTC and an end to what the radicals consider Harvard's "expansionist" approach to its urban surroundings...
