Scheduled for the Autumn Season

Peiping’s invitation to American newspaper correspondents is an interlude of an extended drama, a featured scene of which will be played at the eighth “Peoples’ Congress,” announced for September 15 though perhaps subject to a few weeks’ postponement. The Chinese objective is to secure United States diplomatic recognition, United Nations entry, and economic help. The most favorable period is judged to be this coming winter, when the U.S. election will be out of the way, and the U.S. Administration able to move for a while in comparative freedom from popular pressures.
