Ottawa Man in Blue Funk Over China Decision
Retired Army colonel Harold Kressin of 930 S Hickory mourns President Carters move to recognize Communist China, saying it abandons Taiwan and its Nationalist allies. He recalls serving as U S military adviser in Taiwan and Quemoy and questions human rights rhetoric versus the shift. State Department notes broader exchanges with Peking will be gradual and controlled by limits on travelers and flights.
