When the talking was over, and before Diem set out on a ten-day tour of the U.S. the two Presidents issued the customary formal communique. It was phrased in the same hard-worn phrases of today's diplomacy: both recognized the threat of the Communist buildup in North Viet Nam, Diem pointed up the need for "closer cooperation with the free countries of Asia," the two governments agreed "to cooperate closely together for freedom and independence in the world...
...same kind of cells still more rapidly, reported Dr. Chester Southam. Evidently their original immunity had been increased by the first exposure. When they got a third injection of cells of a different type, they rejected it, but not so fast as the second, showing that the buildup of immunity was strongest against the type of cells first used...
Shepilov's one claim to international fame at this point was to have traveled the Middle East, presumably only as Pravda editor, and there to have sold President Nasser on the big buildup of Soviet arms in Egypt.

Chinese intentions toward Burma and Formosa; but a good deal, if not most, of the talking centered around what Nehru will tell President Eisenhower about Chou when he visits the U.S. later this month. "Now is the time," Chou told U.S. reporters, "to establish better relations. Perhaps that is not the view of the United States, and perhaps John Foster Dulles does not like me, but maybe our successors will be able to get together...
