From this base the communists successfully fought the hostile ring of encircle ment first of the japanese occupation forces and later of c h a i a h g Kai Shek s Kuomintang army. The evocation by the artillerymen was Apt for China s leaders now see their nation As a pure revolutionary Force valiantly resisting an anti China ring of encirclement fostered by the United states with soviet collusion while they continue to preach the gos Pel of armed struggle to the Peoples of Asia Africa and latin America. The situation is one of striking paradoxes on the one hand the chinese openly accuse the russians of openly collaborating with the United states to stamp out local so called wars of National liberation and thus with snuffing out revolution Ary movements.

In another development tied to the Vietnam War the Senate foreign relations committee approved unanimously for Senate consideration two resolutions expressing that body s senti ments that Johnson consider directing .

Strict Security precautions were in evidence along the streets leading to the embassy to prevent any Inci dents but Little attempt was made to deter the zealous fighters of revisionism from putting up Wall posters denouncing Brezhnev and Kosygin.
