. >> and i think it was the depth of her reaction when she came to the white house and had a lovely experience with mrs. eisenhower who did not paint her terribly well. you'll have to read it in the book have you haven't seen it yet. but she was shown through the staterooms and she said they looked like bianca or a bad convention hotel, but there was a reason for that, which was when the white house was reconstructed during the truman administration because of falling down, they scooped everything out of the inside and built new floors and so on. they ran out of money, so harry truman characteristically made a deal with b.altmans and they restructured the whole floor of the white house. and it looked that way. sometimes the restoration of the white house is sort of written off as interior decoration or just sort of superficial. she had to raise this money, which was not easy, she had to keep particularly to three advisers, architectural advisers, from essentially colliding with one another, harry dupont, and sister parrish, also, to some extent. so if anyone doubts her political skills, the fact that s

mrs. gosner and invited her to visit gulig. i met her in august 1992, and arranged for her to visit the place her husband had missed so much. on that day she met nine childhood friends of milton gosner all in their 90s and listened to them reminisce about the past. it was a happy occasion. mrs. gosner was so excited that she finally fulfilled her husband's last wish. and she said that she would cherish this bond of friendship between her husband and the people of china because after seeing for herself the beautiful gulig and warlt and goodwill of the chinese people, she now understood why her husband had been so deeply attached to china. i am sure there are many such touching stories between our two peoples. we should further strengthen our people to people exchanges and build even stronger public support for china-u.s. mutually beneficial cooperation. china is stepping up efforts to implement three projects that will each benefit 10,000 people, include giving scholarships to 10,000 american college students to study in china w
