U.S. Pays The Piper Calls Formosa Tune , the U.S. stepped up its program. o military - aid to the ationalists on Formosa. The equipment which they have been receiv is increasing not only their defensive strength but also their ability to strike at the Chinese Communists. It presum- ably includes aircraft capable of bombing mainland military instal lations. Chiang Kai-shek has a substan- tial force on the island measured in terms of manpower, but his navy is small, and his air force is limited. When the stepped-up equipment program was undertaken several months ago, the U.S. faced the possibility that it might raise Chiang's strength to the point where he would be able to launch an invasion of the Red mainland of Song air strikes against Red 8. Putting the Communists on the defensive and possibly causing them to tie up forces in the area opposite Formosa fitted in with American plans. However, as the Nationalist forces became stronger, they might undertake a big operation which would involve the U.S. fleet in military action with Chinese Communist forces. That, in turn, could have an incalculable effect on the whole international situation. As result of such considerations, informants said,.the United States got an agreement with the Nation- alist government that it would be informed and consulted well in ad- vance of any such operation and that it would have a voice in the decision. dumepd the rep- Gordon killed four bears with five and a passer-by shots sary ycetay.
