On the Record
y. S. Policy Changes on China
Dismay Allies, Create Division

night, without giving any reason
for the reversal, and without pre-
vious consultation or agreement
with those nations with whom it
Is presumably pursuing q common
policy. it dismays its allies and
creates divisions. The Kremlin
had no part in creating the Anglo
crisis over China.
That the Kremlin exploits the
crisis propagandistically is no
whatever for or against
the change of policy which caused
it. Actually. Gov. Dewey's party
contributed most to the change
which, in Ottawa, he apparently
was trying to persuade our Ca
madam friends to accept on the
irrelevant argument Of Kremlin
propaganda.
A war with China is not some
thing that any nation with a
head on its shoulders Is going to
buy as the result of sales talk.
The British have had a long
and bitter experience in Asia.
India and Pakistan are still men,
bers of the British Commonwealth.
and British prestige in Asia rests
on her withdrawal from that great
subcontinent.
Involvement in China would
mean the loss Of all Western in
fiuence in Asia. British partici-
patton would mean the immediate
detection of India from the Com
monwealth and a free hand for
Russia in Europe.
Propaganda or no propaganda,
these are the facts. Political
facts are not made by propaganda
neither by Kremlin propaganda
nor our own. History is not the
result OF advertising campaigns
Many actions could have been
taken or avoided in China. But
one cannot recover the past.
One cannot refer Formosa to

take waterfalls, there are scores
of them, leaping from mountain
sides like wild things.
There are rainbows constantly
appearing. and on the hour trip
by funicular railroad to Corner
Graf the rainbows give the ap-
pearance of colored paths leading
up and across the peaks.
The rising and the setting of
the sun somewhere may provide
more beauty than here, but don't
ask any one who has seen the
sunrises and sunsets from Corner
Graf to believe you.
Then there is the Matterhorn
itself, the mighty skymark Of this
section. II you don't believe 1t
possible to look at a mountain for
hours without getting bored, then
you haven't tried looking at the
Matterhorn. 1t is as changeable
as the ocean. taking on a new ap-
pearance with the passing OF
every hour, and the slightest
change in the weather.
DiSney-Like Train.
The charm of Zermatt begins
the moment the visitor steps of
the Walt Disney-like train which
connects with the main line at
Visp and Brig. On the station
platform are scores of men who,
at first glance. look as alike as
peas in a pod. These are the

arms, by one Chinese government
fighting another which has taken
all the rest of China by force of
arms, with no intervention on our
part. What the inhabitants of
Formosa want has never once
entered the picture.
If the Nationalist Government
has the loyal support of the popu-
lation, and if the morale of its
troops is hight should be able,
by itself, to repel an amphibious
invasion. Gen. Chang has a large
army and an air force, and main
land China possesses no fleet.
But Gen. Chiang's idea Is not
to hold Formosa for the For
mosans but to use it as a base for
the reconquest of China. We can
have nothing whatever to do with
that policy. 1t will fail after suck
ing in American lives and fortunes,
alternating all Asia, and leaving the
West defenseless.
It is that policy which the
Kremlin must want us to pursue
whatever its propaganda.
And the British won't go along
because even the friendliest al
lance stops somewhat short of
suicide.

the proximity of the tip of South
Korea to Japan across the Strait
of Tsushima, a distance of about
$50 miles.
The belief is that if the North
Koreans had swept through South
Korea in the three weeks or month
which they first believed pos
sible-that Is. if they had only
the South Koreans to fight-the
Chinese Communists, who now
spearhead Moscow's drive for SUI
premacy in Asia, would have mo-
bilized a massive invasion of
Japan against which all the naval
forces of the United States in the
Far East would have proved in
adequate.
A Chinese Communist amphibi-
Gus operation would not be car
ried out with all the elaborate
machinery which goes hand in
hand with an American opera
tion of the same kind. The Chi
nese Reds would have no aircraft
carrier task forces, battleships,
cruisers and throngs OF destroyers
to protect their landing craft.
All Kinds of Ships.
An amphibious operation, Chi
nese Communist style, would be
the massing of a half million or
more men in Oriental craft of all
kind-junks, sampans, RATS, in
fact anything that floats. These
could be launched in such num-
bers from all parts of the Korean
coast that their sheer number
would be too great for American
naval forces-as they existed in
the Far East before June 25-to
deal with effectively.
With their callous disregard for
human losses the Chinese Reds
could have expected perhaps a
so per cent loss of these invading
forces and still have landed
$50 900 men, with the arms they
could carry. on the coast of Japan.

the peace treaty councils" be-
cause Formosa was disposed OF
at Cairo where 1t was awarded
to China.
One cannot apply the democra-
tic principle of self-determina-
ton to the Formosan people
which would almost certainly re-
suit in an Independent demo-
cratic Formosan republic-unless
Gen. Chang could be persuaded
to cease from making the island
the civil war headquarters of his
Nationalist Government and re-
linquish his claims In favor Of the
Formosan people themselves. To
do so would reveal him as a man
of great stature. To persuade
him to do SO would be a demo-
cratic triumph-in all Asia.
Never Enters Picture.
Gov. Dewey said. I'VE do not
want one square inch Of For
mosa. We insist. however, that
no other nation shall take that
island by force of arms"
To what other nation does the
Governor refer? Formosa is in
habited by Chinese. 1t was taken
from Japan by force Of arms, oc-
cupied by force of arms, and is

ly as the little train inches its way
up the mountainside, there isn't
half enough time to enjoy all there

up, past the timberline, the train

why-to let all the weak-minded

that the division is a triumph of

Truman's decision to defend For

This Changing World
Army Believes Checking of Koreans
Baked Red Chinese Invasion of Japan

These men could have been rein
forced by second and even third
waves of invaders. whom the four
divisions of occupation troops then
maintained by the United States
in Japan would have had an al
most impossible task tracking
down and destroying.
Whether or not this theory held
at the Pentagon is true to the last
detail, it is certain that Commu-
mist plans for taking over Japan
have been delayed to the fore
seeable future, for the war in
Korea not only has occupied the
potential invasion forces there,
but has awakened the American
people and the American Govern
ment to the Communist danger
in the Far East.
That the Chinese Reds and in
fact all the Communists in Asia
had to look toward eventual con-
quest of Japan can be deduced
from Japan's position as an island
off the vast continent Of Asia.
Before World War II Japan DOM
mated the Eastern part of that
continent for many years, a feat
the British never accomplished
throughout the centuries in Eu-
rope.
Chinese Frustrated.
AS long as Japan exists as a
non Communist nation it remains
for the Communists n pistol
pointed at the heart of Asiatic
Communism, and the communiza-
tion of Asia can never be COM
pleted until Japan Is brought un-
der Moscow's sway.
Thus, whether Chinese Reds
plans for invasion of the Japanese
islands-in which they would un-
have the use of Russian
held bases in Sakhalin and the
Kuriles-were immediate or long
range. they have been reduced
now to the realm of mere hope
and frustrated desire.
The invasion of Japan could
have been carried out without
the prior conquest of Formosa, for
il Japan could be successfully
taken over our position in support
of the Chinese Nationalists in
Formosa would become untenable,
and we would have to revise dras-
tically our whole defense policy in
the Western Pacific.
We may never know for sure
exactly what the Chinese Com
plans for Japan were. ex-
cept perhaps unless some docu-
ments should fall into our hands
detailing those plans. But we do
know that in any event our action
in Korea, supported by the United
Nations, draws q line against an
invasion which was certain to
come at some time.

mountain guides. down to greet
the incoming visitors and see how
many zanies they can find who
will hire them to help them up
the face of a mountain. One look
at these guides and sensible
tourist should Immediately be
warned away from any thought
of mountain climbing.
They are more rugged looking
than Notre Dame tackles. Their
faces, burned by snow, wind and
sun, are about as jolly as the
crags they climb. It almost brought
tears to my eyes to see soft, CITY,
bred tourists being led away by
these men. The only thing that
kept away the tears was my strong
suspicion that after the taxi
conditioned tourists had climbed
for 10 or IS minutes. they would
end up riding piggy-back on the
guides.
Horse Drawn Stages.
Cute isn't one of my favorite
adjectives, but cute is about the
only way to describe the tiny
se-drawn stages which are
sent by the hotels for their guests.
They are painted bright blue, red
and green, and as they clatter up
the narrow, cobble-stoned main
street, the porters hanging on the
back steps wave and call to their
confreres in the chalet-type hotels
which line the street.
The cog railway which climbs
from Zermatt to Corner Graf,
nearly 10000 feet in the air, is the
highest open-air railroad in
Europe and snow prevents it from
operating except for three and a
