Red China The sooner the U.S. admits that its policy of frying to ex- clude Communist China from the U -N is bankrupt, the soon- er something can be done about• it. At the recent U -N General Assembly session, the vote on Red China's admission was a stunning 47 to 47, with ,20 ab- stentions. Next year the bid to get Peking in the U -N is almost certain to have a majority. • There is no point in arguing the pros and cons of Peking's admission. The important thing is that the majority of the world's nations favor having Red China in the world organi- zation. The only reason that the recent vote was not against the U.S. is- that many countries do not�,war to ruffle `Washington's feelin but this i_tuation is not 1' ely to last. - The- great disadvantage of America's Red China U -N polio' —which Canada still supports— is that it not only antagonizes many' friendly countries, but it makes the Red Chinese look like martyrs. • By flatly opposing Red China's admission, the U.S. is 'blade to be the .villain of a plot to keep the wold's most populous, coun- try• out of the U -N. ironically, this policy i5 notonly bad pub- lic relations for Washington, but it ,plays into the hands of Red China, which does not in fact WHITE BEANS NOW IS THE' TIME TO ORDER .

In the past, whenever Peking. has had to comment on the pos- sibility of Red China's admis- sion, the Peking regime has come up with impossible condi- tions such as U -N Charter revi- sion, kicking out the imperial- ists (presumably meaning the V.S:), and renouncing the IT 's aggression charge against e- ki during the Korean . war. ut 'Peking has never flatly come out against U-Nlmember- ship because -the Red Chinese would lose their martyr's role and antagonize many of their would-be Afro -Asian • friends who want them in the U -N: It is clear why Red China does, not want to join. First, Pe- king would be subjected to a sorts of criticism in U -N forums about their • aggressive policy and their ` pollution of the at- mosphere with above -ground nuclear tests. Seccgid, the Red Chinese would have to bear a big hunk of U -N costs which they are certainly not able to do because Red China is still basically a very poor country (despite this, Red China's still one of our best buyers of " it view of the 47-47 vote, now would be an •excellent time for the U.S. to invite Red China, to join the U -N, but under the following conditions:. 1. Taiwan be guaranteed a seat in the U -N General Assem- bly with full status as an inde- pendent country. 2. That Red China accept the principles of the U -N Charter which condemn aggression. 3. That' under no circum- stances will there be a reversal of the U -N aggression charges against Peking during the Ko- rean war. An American offer to let Red China come into .the U -N under these conditions would really be taking the bull by the horns. For the fact is that Communist China has made it clear it will accept membershiponly on its own terms. It will not sit in the U -N alongside representatives of "Nationalist. China"—Taiwan. More important, Red China's real desire not to join the U -N would be unmasked. It is a vir- tual certainty that within 24 hours of the American offer to let Peking in, Red China will have announced it has no inten- tion of joining. Thus, in the fu- ture the.JI.S. would be spared the uprodir over 47-47 votes and the villain's role at the U -N. For the first time since after World War II, the U.S. is care- fully re-examining its relations with Communist China. But how much the old policy towards the Red Dragon will be transform- ed remains to be seen. GET A BARN CLEANER SILO UNLOADER & BLINK FEEDER YOU'LL GET BETTER PER.
