The guest editorial argues Communist China’s table tennis invitations to the U S do not signal policy change. It says Maoist leadership remains hostile, resuming Warsaw talks unlikely, and UN membership would threaten peace with East Germany and North Korea at the door. Nationalist China is praised as peace-loving and an asset to the West.

Postal reforms lag as costs rise and service worsens
A wave of complaints to Congress paints a grim picture of the U S postal system under the Postal Reorganization Act. Rep John Monagan cites a case of a check mailed to a bank five miles away arriving five days later, while Sen Gale McGee and Sen Hirsh Fong press for accountability. They note drastic cuts in last daily mail collections, higher prices, and promises of speedier service failing to materialize. McGee warns July 1 as a critical deadline if improvements do not appear.
