with American officials here for
months in what he has said was
his Offices struggle to stamp out
graft and corruption encouraged
by Chinese on Formosa and in
volving American businessmen.
The Senate Preparedness SUBJ
committee, headed by Senator
Lyndon Johnson, Democrat, of
Texas. has completed a thorough
investigation in the bizarre case,
but has made no public report.
1t is known, too, that FBI and
military intelligence men have
investigated. and that committee
files have been turned over to the
Justice Department.
No United States Funds Involved.
No prosecutions OF Americans
have been forthcoming and a
spokesman for the Justice Depart
ment indicated there would be
none. A major consideration has
been that no United States funds
were directly involved. Many
American officials regard the af-
fair as a strictly Chinese matter
from now on.
Attorney for both Gen. Now and
Col. Hsiang have indicated that if
the Chinese government moves to
have their clients visas cancelled
in an effort to have them deported
to Formosa they will seek political
asylum for them here.
Meanwhile, Formosa announced
yesterday that Gen. Now has been
replaced as chief Chinese repre-
sentative on the military staff
committee of the United Nations
Security Council.
A Taipeh dispatch said Commo-
ldore Kao Ju-fen, alternative rep
resentative on the committee at
Lake Success. had been appointed
las Gen. Mow's successor.

He emphasized. however, that he
had no personal knowledge and
that he did not recall where he
