AS for Mr.. Summerfield's
postal salary reclassification
proposal, the postal einpiDye
unions are split over 1T. Some
favor it. while others such as
the National Federation of Post
Office Clerks oppose it. Any
heated wrangle on the plan could
extend the hearings past the
two or three weeks goal set by
key members Of the House and
Senate Civil Service Committees.
This would be especially true in
the House committee, where
Chairman Murray strongly sup
ports Mr.. Summerf1eld's pay re-
classification proposals.
INvESTIGATIONS-The SEN
ate Civil Service Committee yes
terday voted to ask the Senate
for $4,000 to investigate the
administrations civil service
policies. Last week the commit
tee voted to ask the Senate for

TAIPEH. Formosa. Jan. 26.--
Although Nationalist Chinese
,oficials won't say 50. there is no
question that Chang Kai-shek's
forces vii abandon the Tachen
Islands.
Reliable sources said today the
many problems involved have
been worked out at conferences
between Nationalist and Ameri-
can officers. Planning has
reached the stage where the OPP
Grafton can begin whenever the
signal is given.
Formal announcement appears
to await only congressional ap-
proval of President Eisenhower's
recommendations.
The sources said the evacua-'
I ton would be q Joint operation,

cruiser Helena, is now at the
North Formosa port of Keelung.
7th Fleet Planes in Air.
The English language China
News reported that some 800
planes of the 7th Fleet conducted
maneuvers north of Formosa yes
terday The newspaper, quot
ing what it called reliable
sources. said the air show was
considered here to be a show
of strength to tell of the Reds"
There was no immediate COM
ment from the 7th Fleet.
Nationalist -engine bomb
ers attacked Yikiangshan Island
through a curtain of antiaircraft
fire in the predawn darkness to-
day and caused extensive dam
age, Official reports said.
Other bombers ranging more
than 80 miles northeast in the
Yushan Island area sank a 1900
ton Chinese Red warship, the re-
ports said.
The official Central News
Agency said the total lack OF
Communist activity yesterday
might mean the Reds are pre-
pairing for a large scale attack on
one or more of the Nationalists'
island outposts.
Formalities Still Await.
Although the evacuation is all
set. including deployment of a
powerful 7th Fleet force "at the
ready" certain formal steps
must be taken before it gets
under way.
These steps include final con-
gressional approval Of President
Eisenhower's request for author

his forces. and Chiang's reply,
which is certain to be accept
ance.
About $4,000 regulars and
guerrillas will be evacuated.
The $4,000 civilian inhabitants
will be given their choice and
most are expected to ask for
evacuation.
4 Essex Class Carriers Ready.
Seventh Fleet Units bolstered
by four carriers of the Essex
class were in position to cover
such withdrawal as soon as
the signal is given.
Will the Reds try to interfere
with the withdrawal at the ex-
! pense of an armed clash with
the United States?
Opinion IN Taipeh is divided.
Everyone here recognizes the
risk.
On one thing, however, the
Nationalists are agreed: The
Reds will come out second best
