Does anyone know how the determination was made to include articles in one
column or the other?  What happens with articles by authors in both China

-----
But yield who will to their separation,
My object in living is to unite
My avocation and my vocation
As my two eyes make one in sight.
Only where love and need are one,
And the work is play for mortal stakes,
Is the deed ever really done
For Heaven and the future's sakes.
