rejected Communist charges of
responsibility in the seizure of
two Polish merchant vessels off
Formosa late in 1858 and early
1854.

intercetption of the ships Praca
and Gottwald was delivered by
the American Embassy in War
saw to the Polish Ministry Of
Foreign Affairs It replied to a
ministry note of February IL.
The Praca was intercepted by
Nationalist Chinese forces in
october, 1858, and the Gottwald
by the Nationalists in May, 1854.

rejected similar charges made
against the United States by the
Soviet Union.

Anthony C. McAuliffe, 1t. Gen.
Charles E Hart. and 1t. Gen.
Henry I. Hodes, I am profound
ingly impressed by the deep in

spiritual life of the American
who serves in the armed forces"

since modern weapons mean the
