...large gallery was on hand for the contest. China's delegate, Dr. T. F. Tsiang, was in the Security Council chair because it was his month, by rotation, to preside. He recognized the Soviet delegate, Jacob A. Malik. Delegate Malik did not return the compliment: he said he did not recognize Dr. Tsiang's right to preside or even to sit at the Council table.

Actually, Tsiang's appeal sounded like Nationalist China's swan song: London, Paris and Washington would probably soon follow Moscow's lead in recognizing the Chinese Red regime. This week, U.S. delegate Ambassador Philip Jessup sidestepped China's cry for judgment. In a vague, high-sounding alternative resolution, Jessup proposed that U.N. members pledge themselves not to interfere in China's domestic affairs, nor seek special privileges or spheres of influence...
