(A CHINA COUP THAT ASTOUNDED THE WORLD, AND
BROUGHT CHOW EN-LAI AND MAO TSE TUNG ON
GLOBAL CENTER.)
President Nixon is going to Red China in 1972. Mr. Nixon will
be an extra special guest of the People’s Republic of China. He
will stand at the Gate of Heavenly Peace in Peking with suave
Chou En-lai and the old crafty Mao Tse-tung. They will talk
about war and peace, commerce and communication, coexistence
for friendship between East and West. Mr. Nixon, stymied in
Vietnam and at the Paris peace table, startled the entire world by
decoying his Jewish brain-truster to meet with the leaders of the
most populous nation on earth; thus setting up the greatest
diplomatic coup d’etat in modern time. Most China scholars
believe that all American troops will be out of Vietnam at the
time of the famous visit.
The President may have many big things brewing on the
foreign affairs agenda. He is not doing so well on the domestic
front; inflation is still rampant and industrial disorder is plagueing
the economy. He may be jockeying for a summit meeting of the
Super-Powers with the U.S. acting as mediator in a triangular
relationship between China and Russia. The President is playing
for big stakes. Washington and Moscow are on the road to
meaningful accord in the limitation of nuclear weapons and with
such a victory plus a friendly confrontation with Peking, Mr.
Nixon would be riding high for the honor of “Statesman of the
decade.”
Those who play Mr. Nixon short may be riding for a great
disappointment, for the President has one of the shrewdest
political minds in the world today. He would have made a super
global orientated Prime Minister; domestic ramifications are too
provincial for him. The China coup was very secretive; it even
baffled the most acute China scholars, who were meeting in New
York City only hours before the President made his spectacular
Peking announcement and did not have an inkling of what was
up.
Dr. Albert Feuerwerker, professor of Chinese History at the
University of Michigan had this to say on the baffling
announcement: “It’s amazing how conservative everyone was. It
is one more example of how we who specialize on China couldn’t
predict something. There was a general feeling that the
people-to-people relations were not just a ruse, and that they
would continue over sometime, but no one thought anything like
this would happen. It certainly appears as if the old master Chou
En-lai surely had a hand in this superb diplomatic master-piece.”
Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, the President’s assistant for
National-security Affairs, is the Jewish genius that sketched the
outstanding blue-print between the United States and China.
They included the agenda for the talks on Vietnam, the future of
Indochina, diplomatic recognition, China’s seat in the United
Nations, the status of Taiwan, and perhaps the reaction of the
Soviet Union to the Sino-American detente. Dr. Kissinger spent
20 hours with Premier Chou; it is assumed that he found ground
for the two Chinas within the range of reasonableness.
Dr. Alexander Eckstein of the University of Michigan’s Far
Eastern Studies made this observation, “The Nixon’s visit will be
a ceremonial culmination of very serious and fruitful talks that
will be going on between now and next May.” The learned
Michigan scholar continued with, “that the U.S. may be thinking
on global security pulling China back into the world community
and reconizing her as a great and progressive nation keyed to
global economics.
(THE CHINESE ARE A CAPABLE AND PROGRESSIVE PEOPLE)
At Mr. Nixon’s meeting with a group of Midwestern editors in
Kansas City, he dropped a pertinent statement: that the Chinese
people are creative and industrious. They are one of the most
capable in the world, and 800,000,000 Chinese are going to be an
enormous economic power. The Soviet Union may have lost a
colossal ally by not being able to reconcile their ideological
differences with this powerful nation. We were the only major
nation able to take this important step. It is hoped that the
Chinese will not become an economic danger to us as the
Japanese have, but that is the risk we must take. Few students of
China believe that China will become an aggressive economic
competitor to us anytime soon. Not in the next 20 years do we
have anything to fear. Radio Peking may tone down its
pugnacious broadcasting to prepare the Chinese public for the
visit.

GREATEST AMERICAN RACIAL FORUM
COBO HALL, Detroit, Michigan -- Well over 4,000 Americans,
black, white, yellow, red and brown, have gathered here for the
61st National Urban League (NUL) Conference entitled “Which
Way America?” As in past years, it is by far America’s greatest
annual race relations forum.
Present are governors, mayors, senators, cabinet officers and
Federal officials, black militants, youth groups, captains of
industry (including top officials from nearby Ford and General
Motors), presidential hopefuls and ordinary good solid citizens.
The American media are here in force - key daily newspapers, all
major radio and television networks, UPI, AP coupled with the
Negro/Black press. The famous “Old Gray Lady”, as many pros
term the influential N.Y. Times, has two crack reporters covering
events. And we almost forgot to mention two members of the
Black Congressional Black Caucus, who addressed the conference.
American business, industry, governmental and educational
institutions have booths and representatives in the exhibition area
- over 200 of them.
OUR GEORGIA BOY REALLY CUTS THE MUSTARD
While some were unacquainted with Vernon E. Jordan’s
exciting eleven years of outstanding public service, others wanted
to see and hear for themselves. And what they did see and hear I
was impressive indeed! This tall and personable Georgian came I
out of his new corner moving onto the Urban League stage of I
conferences, meetings, media interviews giving a warm, folksy I
stance which reminded one of Will Rogers. In just a few minutes, I
however, one could sense the presence of a dynamic and I
perceptive individual with what my old dad, J.P., called “a mind I
sharp as a steel trap”. To old time Urban League staff and I
volunteers (and there are loads of them in our 61-year-old I
Movement) Vernon passed the test with flying colors. In other I
words, as we say down home, “Our Georgia Boy Really Cut The I
Mustard!” before leaders of our nation! And our Movement is I
quite fortunate because Mr. and Mrs. Jordan, Mr. and Mrs. Harold I
Sims, the late Whitney Young, Jr. and his beloved wife, Margaret, I
were all very close friends. This means that the Urban League will I
undergo a major leadership transition involving five people who I
are good friends. Mr. Jordan’s conference speech appears else- I
where in the NEWS-REVIEW.
MRS. JORDAN IS BEAUTIFUL GEORGIA PEACH
The conference paid warm tributes to the late Whitney M.l
Young, Jr. and his many accomplishments on the expansion of I
the League during his ten year administration. And Mrs. Margaret'
Young did a marvelous job of publicly passing on her “First

AUGUST ANS ATTEND URBAN LEAGUE CONFERENCE
Over the past twenty years as I travel to various cities attending
Urban League meetings, I’ve always been fortunate in visiting
with former Augustans. In Detroit it was indeed good inviting Mr.
and Mrs. Willie Louis (Ann Harper) and Mrs. Corneilus (Ellen
Harper) Campbell down to the conference. We also had Alec
Reid’s widow, Mrs. Juanita Reid and daughter, Mona, at the
breakfast for A.J. Allen. All of them send warm regards to
relatives and friends in Augusta.
