Nothing points up the pro-Arab bias of TIME more than the brief letter by Nasser [Nov. 28], in which he expresses his "admiration for the article dealing with the Egyptian revolution."

If Nationalist China does explode the "package deal," the indignation of Arab-Asian countries and many Latin American nations may be so great that there will be a serious effort to eject Nationalist China altogether from the General Assembly at this session.
