SIX The Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, September 27, I!7 Report on China given to lone club AAUW hosts new members at opening fall meeting lone Lions to sponsor creekbed cleanup lone Topic Club met Sept. 19, at the home of Katherine Lindstrom.

Jean Nelson gave a brief introduction to the Peoples Republic of China with a view to understanding its present dilemma in relation to its past history. China, she said, is an important world power with its 900 million people (three fourths of the human race) living in 3-6 million square miles, which is a litle larger than the United States. Mrs. Nelson said China's socialist government, following the ideology of Mao Tse-tung, has given the common people a greater interest and pride in their country. Of course, tourists see only the best of everything China has to offer because they must come home with a good impression of the country and its advantages over the other parts of the world. Since 1949, when the Peoples Republic of China was esta blished, China has experi enced a transformation which has few parallels in the contemporary world, Mrs. Nelson explained. Beginning in February 1978 there has been a veritable explosion in China's trade policies the signing of an eight-year trade agreement with Japan equiva lent to about $10 billion U.S. in value; in December, major U.S. -China trade agreements including the construction of large tourist hotels in China by Pan Am's Inter-Continental Colleges bid parents to Arlington Parents of high school students are invited to attend a visitation program by repre sentatives from the Oregon state colleges and universities at Arlington High School Oct. 3, at 10:20 a.m. The program is an opportu nity for interested students and parents to receive first hand information about course offerings, admission requirements, housing, costs to attend, financial aid, scho larships, and other informa tion important in planning for college.
