Han Xu, the man who stands out as the preeminent symbol of friendship in my life-time experience with diplomats, died July 19 in aBeijing hospital after a long bout with cancer. Inhis death the American people lost a good friend. In the first address to an American audienceby a diplomat of the People's Republic of China,Han Xu urged the 1978 graduates of Illinois Col-lege in Jacksonville to reach out cordially to peoplein other countries and to pass the spirit of friend-ship from one generation to another. He carriedthis message eloquently and effectively all of hislong productive and eventful life.
