On the Other Hand
Taft's Stand on Formosa Reveals
Change in Thinking Since 1041

was done under an agreement
with the government of Iceland.
In a Senate speech on July 10,
1941. Senator Taft attacked the
action Of the President, chiefly on
the ground that the President had
exceeded his authority and in
fringed on the powers Of Con-
gress. But in the course Of his
speech the Senator said:
''It is contended by the Presi-
dent that the occupation Of Ice
land Is defense of the United
States. Iceland is 2,400 miles
from the United States. The
landing Of troops in Iceland Is an
act exactly equivalent to aggres-
sive war. We are sending Ameri-
can soldiers into the midst of q
war zone, on foreign soil. His
torically and geographically, Ice
land Is part Of Europe, We are
now for the first time taking an
active military part in the war
between England and Germany" J"
Logic Of Two Speeches.
Ordinarily the senior Senator
from Ohio yields to none In the
admiration Of his own logic, but 1t
Is doubtful that he would like TO
have the logic Of his Iceland
speech applied to his Formosa
speech, making it read as follows:
IT contend that occupation of
the water between Formosa and
the Chinese mainland is not de-
tense Of the United States. For
mosa is 1890 miles from the
United States. The placing of
our Navy between the contending
Chinese forces is exactly equiva-
lent to aggressive war. We are
sending American ships into the
midst OF a war zone, In foreign
waters. Historically and geo.
graphically, Formosa Is q part of
Asia. We are now for the first
time taking an active military
part In the war between the Chi
nese revolutionists and the Ma
tionalist regime"
So much for the logic Of the
Senator's position. As for its
practical aspects, 1t may be true
that there Is not the slightest
evidence that Russia will 60 to
war with us because we interfere
with a crossing to Formosa. /"
Russia could be happy to have us
do just that. It would help in
tensify Chinese hatred of America
and help divert attention from
Russia's encroachment on Chi
tnese territory along the northern
borders. Russia, in brief, may
wish to see us make all the mis-
takes possible in the present con-
fused situation.

This Changing World
American Officials Expected to Be Held
AS Sem. Prisoners in Communist China

Reorganization" Of the vast
Chinese territory is proceeding
according to schedule. Russia is
taking over Manchuria, Outer
and Inner Mongolia and Sinkiang.
Occupation of the last named
province will bring the U. S. S. R.
close to Tibet and India. Mao and
his crowd will administer the rest
OF China under the tutelage of
Kremlin agents.
Prepare for Military Moves.
Meanwhile, Soviet military ad-
visers are preparing the Chinese
Red armies for further action in
Indo-C China, Burma and eventually
Thailand. When the time comes,
that is to say after all communi-
cation and supply problems have
been solved, the Red armies will
proceed to the liberation" of
militarily unprepared Tibet and
and India. The Chinese satellites
will move toward Indo- China and
Burma.
1t is believed in military quart
ers In Washington that the oc-
cupation of the French and
Netherlands diplomatic establish
ments in China are part and
parcel of the propaganda cam
paign which must precede military
action by the Red troops. It is
essential in an area where prestige
is as important as military action
that the victim should be made
to lose face with the native popu-
lation.
The French are trying to salvage
what they can from Indo-C China.
They have organized a Wet Nam
government under the former
Emperor Bao Dai. The Paris
government has indicated to the
Chinese Communists that it would
consider its recognition If the
Peiping government in turn would
recognize Bao Dai. The French
offered the British the same deal
recognition Of the Peiping Reds in
exchange for recognition of Bao
Dai.
The Peiping government did not
dignity the French suggestion
with an answer. The British, it
Is said In informed diplomatic
quarters, promised the French that
they would recognize the Bao Dai
government soon after the recog-
milton Of the Chinese Communists.
But nothing has happened so far.
1t appears that in the negotiations
now being conducted in Peiping
between the British charge DAFT
faires and Communist Foreign
Minister Chou En-lai the latter
vetoed any recognition by the
British of the new regime in Indo-
China.
The conflscation Of French
consular property in China Is
considered to be O preparatory
move for the opening-perhaps
before the end Of next summer
Of hostilities in Indo- China. The
fact that the Chinese Reds have
slapped the faces Of two Of the
most powerful Western nations
and have gotten away with its
having strong reverberations

unparalleled in human history,
are taken for granted, and they
think Of technology only al pro-
ductive, not consumptive.
Way Of Life Nonsense.
While the mayor of New York
urges restaurants not to serve

a newspaper publishes recipes re-
curing only 21 tablespoons Of
water for cooking . week 1t has
only been delicately hinted that
1t Is not always necessary to flush

suggest that tub or shower baths
be eliminated for the duration Of
the emergency. For that would be
an assault on the American Way
Of Life" which DEGREES that any
one who does not bathe daily in
tub or shower u unclean and
un-American.
It H, Of course, nonsense. One
can make oneself Immediately
clean with sponge and q gallon
Of water in q washbowl, standing
on a mat and washing oneself by
areas. When I started journalism
as free-lance in Europe, living
In hostels and cheap hotels,
hygiene suggested I avoid the
communal bathtub. So returned
to the bowl-and-pitcher tech
niques Of my childhood In coun-
try parsonages. It was fine.
But the terrific dependency Of
great cities on centralized serv-
ices also geometrically heightens
the horrors Of modern war,
whether fought by bombs or by
the even newer warfare Of guer-
rillas and sabotage. New York
City could be thrown into total
chaos by blowing up one or two
dams. If some Communists mean
what they have said among them
selves privately, this is just what
they would try to do in case of
war with the U. S. S. r.
The picture of Germany where
in the once proudest cities people
are just beginning to crawl out
OF caves. while the countryside
and small towns look as though
there had been no war, does not
hold its logical counsel Of pru-
dencs. With ali the talk Of Sc

Conssanune broWn' last November.
But he is still in the former Ma
tionalist capital, where he was
confined to his compound soon
after the Communists seized the
city.
When the generals orders were
communicated to the Communist
officials they first refused to give
him an exit visa. Then they said
this would be given to him as soon
as he complied with the Chinese
Red labor laws, which require
that Chinese personnel-domestic
as well as clerks-be given six
months separation pay.
Still Semi Prisoner.
This law required the payment
of about $4,000. Washington in
structed Gen. Soule to pay the
blood money. Then the Nanking
authorities said that although they
would give him the needed exit
permit, they could not provide
him with transportation to
Shanghai and even If he got
there no ships or planes were
available to take him out of China.
Gen. Soule Is still in Nanktng,
a semi-prisoner Of the Chinese
Communists.
Whether Communist authorities
will expedite the departure Of the
consular personnel is a question
which no one in Washington can
answer at this time. Secretary
of State Acheson ordered them to
leave China Immediately after he
learned that the property in
which the Peiping consulate is
housed was taken over by the
Communists In defiance of all
international law.
It is probable that the Pei
ping governments action against
the American, French and Meth
erlands consulates was prompted
by Moscow, where Mao Tze-tung
still is holding conversations with
the Kremlin authorities for Arm
er ties between Soviet Russia and
Red China.
According to authoritative
sources, the reports of some sort
of "estrangement" between the
Chinese Communist leader and his
bosses in Moscow either are in
ventions prompted by wishful
thinkers or are clumsy propa-
ganda,
