...last with a gallant swoop of his hat, as Mrs. Eaton cooed: "You're the bravest man I've ever heard of." Eaton, who regards himself as a kind of missionary for Russian-U.S. coexistence (see BUSINESS), received the gift-a memento from Khrushchev of his visit to Russia last September-with the sentimental hope that "between these three fine stallions and our own mares, there can be not only peaceful coexistence but happy relationships...
...hours with Vice President Nixon gave him the chance to invite Nixon to visit Russia (no committal) and to remark on Nixon's youthful appearance (Replied the Vice President, just turned 46: "I feel older inside").

Tito's visit has caused rumblings in Communist circles all over Asia, and General Ne Win was in no mood to borrow trouble with his Red Chinese neighbors on the north. Red China and Burma dispute their common border, and Ne Win's army is trying to rout out Communist guerrillas. Red China's Ambassador Li I-mang has lately complained to the Burmese for permitting the showing of the Nat "King" Cole film China Gate, and even protested when a soccer team from Hong Kong played in Rangoon. And so in Burma Tito got a formal...
