The Liaison Office in Peking operates without full embassy status due to absent formal relations. U.S. trade with China leapt to 100 million in 1972 and could exceed 300 million this year as purchases of farm products, tools, and machinery grow.

Bruce’s role should extend beyond trade to shape a peaceful, durable U.S. policy toward China that engages Beijing politically, not just economically.
