Recognition of China
New York, November heh con
“There are two views on Red China
first, that since the Peking govern-
ment controls most of China, it
should be recognized in the UN,
and second, that since the Peking
government seized the country by
force, it should not be recognized
as the real government of China,”
said Sidney Bailey, representative
of the British Friends Service
Committee to the United Nations.
Mr. Bailey was the first speaker at
the American Friends Service
Committee College Seminar on
Red China in the United Nations.
China Problem
One of the main questions pre-
sented at the seminar was what
to do with Nationalist China if Red
China were admitted to the UN.
Several suggestions were made,
among which. were: admission of
Red-—China and retention of Na-
tionalist China; and, more popular-
ly received, recognition of Red
China, and admission of Chiang’s
government as that of Formosa. A
legal problem was presented by
this latter suggestion, however.
Since Formosa is part of China,
it would be difficult to recognize
part of the lawful territory of one
country as another country.
The consensus on the problem of
Red China and the UN, as present-
ed by various delegates, was that
Red China should be recognized
by the United Nations. Only the
member of the U.S. delegation dif-
fered from this opinion.
In the Korean War, the UN could
not deal with Communist China,
since it was not a. member nation.
The opposition to the admission
of Red China hinged upon the ar-
gument that Red China was an ag-
gressor nation in Korea, and could
not be recognized since the UN
Charter specified that all nations
in the UN must be peace-loving at
the time of their admission or rec-
| ognition.

‘Chris was as effective as she was
allowed to be.
In the part of Teddy Brewster,
the old ladies’ nephew who has de-
lusions of being Teddy Roosevelt,
Richard Rivers was well cast. He
wps good, though not outstand-
ing, as a noisy, harmless madman,
and showed ‘admirable stage pres-
ence on several occasions.
Maniac Well Portrayed
Much to everyone’s amusement,
Jonathan Brewster,” the maniac
who resembles Boris Karloff, was
played by Charles Adams. He was
a bit stiff in the first act, but loos-
ened up later on, and, with the ad-
vantage of his gruesome make-up,
was very amusing.
The portrayal of Jonathan’s ac-
complice, Dr. Herman Einstein,
was perhaps the best of the per-
formance. With his authentic-
sounding accent and mad-scientist
mannerisms, Harvey Phillips show-
ed a greater knack for humor and
character interpretation than any
other player, and, as far as we are
concerned, nearly stole the show.
Small Parts Rough
The smaller men’s roles—Dr.
Harper, Mr. Witherspoon, Mr.
Gibbs, and Officer O’Hara—werg
played fairly well, though little of
the professional could be seen in
their acting. As these parts were
Lsmall, they didn’t detrags too much
from the performance as a whole.
In spite of the few minor mis-
haps, Arsenic was very pleasant
entertainment. We can look for-
ward with no misgivings to future
productions this year.
