THE PRESIDENT HAS SEEN
The dominant story this morning is the seating of Communist
China in the United Nations, and the stunning ouster of Taiwan.
The Chiagn Government was voted out 76-35, after the Administrat-
ion's important question vote lost. Taiwan walked out as the final
vote came; there was cheering and foot-stomping as is traditinal
in Arab and Communist countries. The Times ran a three column
Banner:
UN SEATS PEKING AND EXPELS TAIPEI
NATIONALISTS WALK OUT BEFORE VOTE
U.S. DEFEATED ON TWO KEY QUESTIONS
To indicate the stunning impace of the vote, one notes that
the first edition of the Daily News, which came into the White
House this morning banners the headline,
US CONFIDENT
OF CHINA VOTE
Buckley is reportedly preparing legislation to cut back con-
tributions to the UN; while some 32 Senators, with 10 Republicans
among them, have indicated that, regardless of outsome, the U.S.
stands firmly behind the UN. This story clearly dominates every-
thing else this morning.
Last night, Bill Gill h d a terribly pessimistic report on the
Pakistan-Indian troubles, where war seems almost imminent. One
does not get that hard an impression from this morning's papers,
where the story is not domiannt. Reports indicate that the Paks
slew some 501 enemy "Agents" in East Pakistan, however.
Brezhnev's visit to Paris, the fact that he is not acknowledgdd
as the Kremlin honcho on foreign policy toward Western Europe and
the USA---and France's seeming acquiescence in the Brezhnev desire
for an early all-European Security conference get the headlines on
that "second" major story of the day.
