INTERPRETING THE NEWS Commercial and Industrial Gains Await An Independent Red China By J. M.

For wix yearn, now, numer ous competent obnerveri of Chinese affalm have clung to A Day at lira Zoo (Continutd from (#•») the mccojmI page where the no pianos, screeched “where?" and the altoe bur,«i "Herei” there whn a t>|c by a 1. rge girl wee moved her mouth while a o.trn... graph concealed in her skirt played a Lily Pons record.

Then. 1 he Idea, against many contra dictions, that one day natural force* hy which Russia and t'hlnu tend to repulse each other will he ([In to ([ct In their lick*. Secretary of State Dullen re ferred Tuesday to indications that Peiping sometimes seems to he acting independently. He also referred to the difference between raising hopes of peace ful settlements before all the na tions at the Bandung confer ence, which would expect the Reds to follow up, and mere peace offensives over the Pei ping radio. The secretary made it clear the United States was taking Chou Rn-Lal’s statement more serloualy than indicated by its initial reactions Saturday, despite j the cold water thrown by the j Chinese Premier’s later state ment that he had no intention j of giving up on plans to "liber- j ate" Formosa. In the first place, even If j Chou merely wants to explore his chances of getting Formosa j without a fight, It Is obvious that Asia expects the I/utted States to demonstrate Its j goodwill by negoatlng. There is a deep suspicion that ' I he Chinese Reds have no more intention of abandoning their pol- ; icy of expansion than has Rus sia. Russia is on the verge of ne-! gotiating an Austrian settlement and a Japanese peace treaty. The Austrian move looks toward re newing negotiations regarding reunification of Germany. The usual Red tactics at such moments is to increase their mil itary pressure wherever possible, and Russia Is pursuing this tac tic with her announcements about plans for a unified Red army in Eastern Europe. Red China pursues it with her buildup o f military strength opposite Formosa. Heretofore these tactics have led, as in the cases of Korea and Indochina, to false peaces, and that Is probably all that either nation wants now, pend ing resumption of their cam paigns. Red China, however, has an opportunity far outweighing the value of Formosa if she wants to shift toward the West. She could Join the march of Asia toward commercial and industri al self-sufficiency. She is not suf ficiently submerged in commu nism as a religion to prevent it. Just as Yugoslavia was not. The United States has some cards to play if she gets any opening at all. emCTHEMW FOK KFPA/K 2 Repair Them, No Need for New Ones! TOP QUALITY, COURTEOUS SERVICE. Handy Campus Location!

Letters to the Editor Edification Emerald Editor: I am writing this for your edi fication and for you to publish if ! you choose to do so. The problem of the center fioor on the East Entrance to the Erb Memorial Student Union arises j from the door closure, not the hinges. The Physical Plant tells I me that these are dehcate instru- j j ments, indeed. We requested the Physical Plant to order the clo-! sure approximately two months ago when we first noticed It was deteriorating. They have had considerable difficulty In obtain ing thin closure. We hope to have it this next week, however. I hope this clears up what is in some respects becoming a ma jor problem at the University of Oregon. Sincerely yours, A. L.
