...qualities that have made Mao one of the century's most powerful leaders are apparent throughout the papers. One of his strengths is his conviction that the Chinese government must be at one with the masses. He hates the bureaucracy for having interfered with this sacred relationship.

That section forbids the Defense Department, beginning next fiscal year, to fund any research not having "a direct and apparent relationship to a specific military function."
