Union savings a smiling chinese communist party chairman Mao tse Tung Center was flanked by his Deputy Lin Piao right and Premier Chou in Iai in this 1967 photo. Diplomatic observers note that recent smiles cast at the . By China to leaders May be carrying a message to the effect that diplomatic relations Between the two nations need not always be so grim. Unravelled much confusion to be dispelled. There Are Many ironies. For 22 Stormy years there has been a great Wall of suspicion Between America and China. Yet things Are happening now which would have sounded incredible a Short time ago. For the russians the ironies Are painful. Mao tse Tungl to China in its Early years exchanged with Moscow ardent vows of a eternal and unbreakable ?� now Moscow occupies the role of ideological enemy of peking and watches developments with gloomy foreboding. Mao once told his followers that americans were paper tigers Only strategically that tactically they could be a living tigers Iron tigers real tigers that can eat ?� but now peking encourages the tigers to purr. Why Tough questions the sudden Sunburst of smiles poses Tough questions. The most urgent How far will peking carry the betterment of relations Chou to words to . Table Tennis players were suavely cordial but on the record he is uncommitted so far As the . Government is concerned. Chou spoke last week of exchanges a Between the Peoples of China and America. He told his guests a you have opened a new Page of relations of the chinese and american ?� he said this would a meet the majority support of the two ?� this left him with his options open. Moscow could not accuse him of making a direct approach to Washington. The exchanges of gestures and responses Between Washington and peking suggest a possibility of purposeful dialogue. There Are Good reasons Why at this time the two might want to Converse seriously despite All the background of Recti Mintory clamor. These reasons Are wrapped up in a highly complicated history of chinese american relations. Americans shocked it shocked Many americans a generation ago to realize they were shut completely out of Mainland China. They had been accustomed to see themselves As China to friends. Americans shared in exploiting the prostrate celestial Empire in the 19th Century but clearly they were the least avaricious of the foreigners and often were moved by Good intentions. From the time of the Manchu Empire to fall 60 years ago and the establishment of Sun Yatsena to Republic China was a major worry for . Administrations. Her unexploited riches were a Magnet for intruders. Joseph Stalin to comintern supported and tutored a communist movement which grew from a tiny beginning into formidable strength challenging Sun to heir Generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek. Japan invaded Manchuria and then swept Over much of China Long before Pearl Harbor. . Efforts As a matter of strategy the United states tried laboriously to bring the nationalists and communists together. Many in America pictured Mao to forces As agrarian reformers rather than doctrinaire communists. The conciliation efforts which continued after Japan to defeat were for doomed. Mao to forces grew steadily stronger Chiango to hit by a combination of inefficiency corruption and intrigue. By october 1949 Chiango to forces had fled to Formosa. Mao proclaimed a othe people to Republic of China is now ?� one of his first acts was a Moscow visit to ask Stalin for help. The help he got was niggardly but the treaty was made at a time when the cold War Between Moscow and Washington was at its most Arctic. S. Korea invasion a few months later in june 1950, came the Moscow supported invasion of South Korea. President Harry s. Truman after rallying United nations military resistance sent the . 7th Fleet to the Formosa Strait to prevent Mao to forces from menacing a newly established nationalist regime. A new link was forged in a Chain of inflexible . Policy. When . Forces mostly american pushed the North koreans Back deeply into their own territory Mao to China sent in hordes of �??� that was a new link in the Chain. The korean War forged still another by persuading leading americans that a monolithic communist movement had a master plan to engulf All Asia. The United states despite its wartime pledges in favor of self determination Felt impelled to Send military help to the French colonial forces in Indochina seriously challenged in Vietnam by the vie Minh of communist to Chi Minh. Gulf widens the Gulf Between the United states and red China widened. When the French were Defeated and a 1954 Geneva conference divided Vietnam the United states assumed responsibility for keeping the northerners out of the South. President Dwight d. Eisenhower to Secretary of state John Foster Dulles pronounced the doctrine of a massive retaliation As a warning to China to shun Southeast Asia. The United states put together Seaton the Southeast Asia treaty organization to counter any chinese threat. . Support for Chiango to regime on Formosa was massive and it flourished into an economically prosperous and militarily Strong Island fortress. Chiango to Republic of China claimed to be the Only Legal government of the huge Mainland where Mao now is solidly entrenched. Washington supported the claim. Tinderbox situation Formosa became a constant Tinderbox situation. Frequently the communists shelled the offshore islands Quemoy and Matsu Over which Chiango to regime held away. The shelling produced crisis. The danger seemed real. Meanwhile strains with the russians were becoming visible. Moscow had refused peking to pleas for greatly increased military Aid probably for fear of what might develop in the Formosa area. By 1960 a feud was in full Bloom and Nikita s. Khrushchev ended All soviet Aid to red China. In Southeast Asia with red chinese encouragement North Vietnam announced formation for the South of a liberation front and escalated its participation in the Viet Congo to War on the Saigon government. President John f. Kennedy in turn stepped up . Military Aid to South Vietnam. But China had to be cautious at that time. Some bad years she had experienced some bad agricultural years had gone through drought and even famine and was deep in internal political difficulties. Trouble or not China burst into the exclusive nuclear bomb club in october 1964 with the explosion of her first atomic device soon to be followed by other blasts. Within half a dozen years she would not Only possess a bombs and nuclear tipped missiles but would have two Small satellites in orbit suggesting a capacity to throw a Long Range missile punch. State girl to get Lifesaver medal Madison apr an 11-year-old Janesville school safety patrol girl will be one of nine youngsters to receive the american automobile association to Gold Lifesaver medal the aaa announced saturday. Angela k. Vitcenda will receive the medal next month in Washington d.c., for providing first Aid to a severely injured classmate. She is the daughter of or. And mrs. Laramie Vitcenda of Janesville. There was Little possibility of reducing tension Between the years 1966 and 1970, because China in that period was in the grip of a mighty Power struggle. Mao to supporters had proclaimed a great proletarian cultural revolution supposedly to Root out All old ways and substitute new ones a but actually to destroy his enemies. Mao to chief foes were destroyed. The emergent regime began carefully to rebuild government and party structures. It had a distinct military look. How would Washington know that peking was ready to take this current show of Good will out of the a Poe plea realm and put it on a government level possible signals one signal could be agreement to resume joint discussions in Warsaw another could be the release of four . Prisoners held in China for 20 years since the korean War. Yet another could be permitting . Correspondents to be stationed permanently in peking. Still another could be a willingness to extend cultural and Trade relations. Conceivably one aspect could be taken out of . Hands. There is a Strong drive among United nations members to give the nationalist seat to peking. And some Neutral bystanders speculate that some Day the nationalists perhaps after 83-year-old Chiang is out of the picture will decide to strike a bargain with peking. Prospective dividends the Nixon administration is on record against sacrificing nationalist China As the Price of better relations with peking. But if the major obstacle can in some Way be overcome there Are prospective dividends for both americans and red chinese. American businessmen Eye a huge potential chinese Market. China sees in the United states Many things she needs for More rapid economic development including food and manufactured goods. Peking has been a Long time denouncing the United states. It is committed to a number of violent revolutionary movements support of which would be incompatible with bettered relations in the West.
