Summary
The first overwhelming impression of the Peoples [sic] Republic of China is of its many people. They are all along the way as one drives in from the airport – on foot carrying loads on their backs, driving carts, pulling carts, driving oil tanks, in pedicarts and motor trucks, on bicycles. They are in the nearby fields, working the ground or constructing buildings beside the road. When one drives through the gap in Peking’s ancient wall, the throng multiplies. And one is struck by the many different kinds of people, different colors of skin, varying sizes and contour of face. The westerner is prone to exclaim, “But they don’t look Chinese!”
