The political hug and kiss in campaign culture
Russell Baker notes that politicians kiss babies only in campaigns and that public expectations shape this ritual. He argues the conventions are arbitrary yet influential, shaping images of temperament and suitability while normalizing private flaws unseen by cameras. He cites Kennedy and Nixon eras to illustrate public fascination and the gendered limits of acceptable affection.

Chinese leadership unsure after Chou En-lai death
C L Sulzberger notes Mao remains a unifying symbol but succession is unresolved. Teng Hsiao-ping return to daily governance signals no clear path to power for any single figure. Wang Hung-wen Chang Chun-chiao and Yao Wen yuan are in the background, with possible influence from restored military leaders. The piece compares China's leadership contest to post Stalin Russia and discusses Sino Soviet tensions and potential moves toward improving Western relations.
