The Brothers Pu
Two Harvard Ph.D. graduates are among the right-hand aides of Premier Chou En-lai of Communist China.
They are the Pu brothers--Shou-chang and Shan--and they both accompanied Chou on his tour of South Asia. Shou-chang got his doctorate in Economics here in 1946, while his brother received a similar degree four years later. Both did their undergraduate work at the University of Michigan.
The Pu boys, as correspondents call them, chat easily, but carefully, with American newsmen. They were born in China, studied in the United States, and returned home shortly after the Communists seized control of the country in 1949.
