Peiping demands reciprocal U.S. admission for Chinese reporters as a condition to allow American journalists into Communist China. The State Department rejects the demand. Twenty four U.S. reporters were granted six months in Red China, while the U.S. will not issue visas to Chinese bearers of Communist passports.
