Suit Charging illegal
Operation Of Quarry

Fairfax County j. going ahead
with civil action to halt opera
ton of a gravel pit or rock quar-

conviction in the case yesterday.
Attorney Hardee Chambliss
said he was preparing a civil in
junction suit to stop the opera
tons of Irving and David Sisler
on grounds they are running a
rock quarry instead Of a gravel
pit for which the County issued
them a permit.
The SiSler brothers yesterday
were acquitted in Fairfax Trial

Grating a quarry instead Of a
gravel pit. The court held that
the County failed to prove they
were taking the crushed gravel

such operations in an agricul-
tural district when the product
is to be used on the premises.

There can be- little doubt
that the stepped-up campaign
Of Red China for control Of
Formosa has been shrewdly,
timed to coincide with the
ch-fanfared Nisit Of former
British Prime Minister Attlee
and his party Of Laborites to
Peiping.
The Chinese Reds have been
comparatively quiet on the
subject Of the liberation Of
Formosa for the past year.
Such public agitation as has
been aired seemed designed
more for home consumption
than for pressure on the West
for abandonment Of Chang
Kai-shek and the Nationalist
regime, now established on the
huge island OF the Chinese
coast.
But on the very eve Of the
arrival OF the British visitors
in Peiping. Red Premier and
Foreign Minister Chou En-lai
loosed . blast on the subject
Of Formosa notable for its lack
OF even Red-style restraint.
He made no concessions to
"co-existence" in his unvar-
nished threat to proceed with
the military conquest Of the
island.
Thus the Communists have
adroitly succeeded in linking
the British. through the pres
ence Of a former Prime Min
lister and former cabinet Of
ficers, with the announced Red
intention to take Formosa by
force II necessary. And again
the British have become a
party, Internationally or other
wise, to a major Communist
slap at the United States.
Mr.. Chou. in his diatribe
billed In advance as q major
official foreign policy talk.
fatty warned that Red China
would "brook no foreign in
reference" with the ''libera-
ton" of Formosa. Following
the established Communist
line, he described Formosa as
occupied" by the United
States and q base for planned
military operations against
the Chinese mainland. The

Chang regime, In the Chou
version. Is made upsof "han-
dts" who have fied the Just
wrath Of the Chinese people
and are now tools Of the
Americans in their machina-
tons for q new world war.
This is an indictment Of no
mean proportions when it Is
coupled with the presence in
Peiping Of the Rritishers. And
since Mr.. Attlee Is an old foe
of Chang Kai-shek, and Is on
record in favor Of a settlement
Of the FormOsa issue on Red
/, terms as well as the admit
lance 6f the Chinese Com
munistS to the United Nations,
the effectiveness Of the Chou
speech as a propaganda move
is greatly strengthened.
There is no question at pres
emit of the firm intention Of
the United States to defend
Formosa against, any Red as
sault. The old Acheson policy
regarding its defense has been
reversed; President Eisen-
hover has ofiicially taken the
wraps" of Chang, which in
effect places the blessings Of
Washington on any moves he
may make to attack the Chi
nese mainland.
Much Of the credit for the
United States stand ON For
mosa must. of course, go to
Gen. Douglas Macarthur.
When the general told the
Veterans Of Foreign Wars
nearly three years ago that
America must include For
mosa within our Pacific de-
tense perimeter or face dis
aster. he precipitated a con-
troversy which finally resulted
in a reversal Of the suicidal
policies Of the Acheson group
in the State Department. Al
though Gen. Macarthur was
publicly slapped down for his
speech and forced to withdraw
it in advance Of its delivery. it
already had been published
and had It's effects.

Rear Admiral r. 3. Britain
told the Communists the u. N.

will be freed If they are alive
and when their bodies will be
returned If they are dead.
The new list, given the Com

It includes men whom the
Reds have admitted holding in
China.
The Reds insist that all allied
war prisoners who wanted to re-
turn home were repatriated last
year.
All Believed Airmen.
All of the small group Of cap
tives in China are believed to be
airmen who drifted down in
Manchuria after their planes
were chippled in air battles just
south of the border. The Reds
contend they are not war pris-

consider as not having been ac-
counted for In a satisfactory
