The Michigan Daily-Sunday, October 15, 1978-Page 3 trOU SE V4 KPE Ct:IWAlY NORMA LIZA TION COULD COME SOON: China seeks stability with U.S. HONG KONG (AP) - Chinese leader Hua Kuo-feng has written to President Carter outlining Peking's position on normalizing relations with the United States, something the Chinese expect "could come soon," an American ex- pert on China said yesterday. Dr. Ross Terrill, an associate professor of government at Harvard University who just returned from an 18-day tour of China, said he discussed purpose of the visit, the sources say, would be to discuss the implications of the pact and other major issues with China's new leadership. Terrill said Miss Wang "was very pleased" with the visit Carter's national security adviser, Zbigniew Br- zezinski, made to China last May. "I think what impressed the Chinese about the situation in Washington is that they see the strategic argument for Take Ten The now-defunct Student Government Council's Constitutional Convention, which began seven months earlier, was slowly coming to a close on October 15, 1968. That's because the idea of making the student government more representative was plagued by a lack of student interest, and the number of people attending the Constitutional Convention rarely reached a quorum. Prof. dies University Professor Burton Baker, Phd., a world reknown anatomist died yesterday morning at University Hospital following a chronic illness. Dr. Baker was 65 and is survived by his wife Hazel and two children. Funeral arrangements are pending at Muehlig Chapel. Baker spent his entire academic career at the University Medical School where he joined the faculty as an instructor in 1941 and worked his way to full professor in 1952. During his 37 year tenure Dr. Baker became a highly respected researcher, teacher and administrator. He published more than 110 scientific articles in his field of neuro- . indocrinology and reproductive biology.

But he said she was "astonishingly flexible" on the nature of relations the United States could maintain with Taiwan. Terrill said he doesn't expect the United States to make any formal abrogation of the defense treaty, but he said it could be left to a different inter- pretation by both parties. For instance, he said, if the United States recognizes communist China, the Peking leader- ship could interpret that as an automatic abrogation of the Taiwan treaty while the United States could continue to consider it valid. Terrill suggested that Carter might move more quickly toward nor- malization after next month's U.S. congressional elections. "Once Mr. Carter makes a decision, it will be possible to create opinion in Congress. It's like the Panama Canal, which they also said was impossible." Because of China's increasingly positive attitude toward the West, Terrill said, the United States "can get the substance of an ongoing link with Taiwan if we give up the shadow - which is that the government of China is in Taipei." Terrill, who has visited China five times, is the author of the highly ac- claimed book "800,000,000 - The Real China" and "The Future of China," which has just been published. He traveled on this trip with the Commit- tee for Australia-China Relations. 'I think in this moment in history, China is in an outgoing mood to the West. It seems to me they're opening up to the United States on students, oil and other things because they expect normalization could come soon.' -Harvard Prof. Ross Terrill I ALAM TANNER'S 1971 the question of normalization with Vice Foreign Minister Wang Hai-jung. "I HAD a talk with her on the world situation in general and she chose to spend 60 per cent on U.S.-Chinese relations," Terrill said. "Their view is that the U.S.-China relationship is not a diplomatic issue but a political issue, and the position they want the Americans to take is the long-term view of the relationship, to view it politically and not just diplomatically and to view it in strategic terms. "I understand. Chairman Hua has sent a letter to President Carter along these lines," he said in an interview before leaving for Australia. He declined to give further details about the Communist Party chairman's message. MEANWHILE, Chinese informants accompanying Foreign Minister Huang Hua on his current visit to Britain are saying privately in London that they expect Carter to visit Peking next year if Washington and Moscow sign a new Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty. The normalization having advanced since April when there was crystallization in the United States over Russian expan- sionism - especially in Africa. "THEY SAW the Brzezinski visit in May as an indication of the anti- Russian strategic argument joining the bilateral argument that normalization would mean more trade, news bureaus, etcetera," he said. "I think in this moment in history, China is in an outgoing mood to the West," Terrill said. "It seems to me they're opening up to the United States on students, oil and other things because they expect normalization could come soon." China has signed several multi- million-dollar contracts with American companies for oil technology and equipment to develop its deposits and recently agreed to student exchanges with American universities. The Chinese also have made several diplomatic and economic forays to Europe. TERRILL SAID Miss Wang was firm on the three principles China has set for LA SALAMANDRE Although the plot concerns the investigation of a murder, it actually deals with the interrelations of three young people, all products of the '60s, not unlike JULES ET JIM.
