Oregonians Divide On Issue Of U.S.-Red China Policy Corvallis U.

Balloting on U. S. trade policies with Red China was as follows: Forty per cent said the U.S. and allies should try to main tain special trade restrictions against Red China while liber alizing the position of such al lies as Japan that need more normal China trade for their own prosperity.
