NEW YORK, April 80 o.
Swiss consular officials and the
owner Of q private ambulance
service in Brooklyn are at
swords point.
The international affair OF
honor is over the Swiss coat Of
arms-a white cross on q red
field. the reverse OF the Ameri-
can Red Cross insignia.
A plush new ambulance has

Said Mr.. Scherler:
such use Of the Swiss coat

Federal law and violations are
subject to a fine of UP to $500
and Imprisonment up to one
year or both.
Il should appreciate your in

When Mr.. Moss received the
letter. he said yesterday:

Swiss Consul J. J. Huber ex-

The case is not uncommon.
Various tradeSpeople have used

as our flag-unknowingly. It's
our duty to write to them.
When we bring it to their at

Decision on Defending Quemoy and
Motsu Seen Up to Eisenhower

The 7th Fleet has been
alerted and eight warships
are steaming from Singapore
to the Pacific. What they do
when they get there will de-
pend on the President.
What apparently nobody
can yet tell him is whether
the stepped-up Communist
offensive is mere Saber-rat-
ting designed to keep the
West off-balance now that
the Middle East seems to be
calming down or whether
Mao TSe-tung has q serious
intention Of plucking the
Nationalist thorn from his
side.
There are sources in the
State Department which are
openly critical of Chang Kali
shek for boastfulness which
they believe may have melted
retaliation by the Commu-
nists. without doubt in this
area they would have pre-
ferred to let sleeping dogs lie.
But because of his control
OF Quemoy and Matsu,
Chang has been able to bras
that he has air superiority in
that area and could drop
Leaflets on the mainland at
will. Whether he dropped
them or not, his boasts were
widely published, and since
then the Communists have
built up their air and ground

This tired Capital which
had begun to sigh with relief
over getting Congress safely
out Of town and the further
prospect of getting the Ma
rines out Of Lebanon has been
rudely jolted by the 10000
Communist shells landing on
Quemoy in one day.
Quemoy and Matsu are
the on-shore islands which
Congress in an earlier crisis
gave President Eisenhower a
blank check to defend at
whatever cost. 1t is now the
Presidents decision alone
whether they are to be con-
sidered essential to the de-
tense Of the Nationalist Chi
nese regime on FormoSa.
The Joint Chiefs Of STAFF
are agreed that these tiny
islands are not a military
essential to that defense.
Their Importance is symbolic,
They are the closest Nation
aliSt territory to the Chinese
mainland and they have
been heavily fortified by
Chang Kai-Shek with Amer
lean encouragement.
This opening of a second
front in the war Of nerves
between the West and the
Communist world naturally
unsettles Washington. With
rare candor, the State De-
partment admits it does not
know today what Commu-
mist intentions are.

As things stand now, no
final decisions have been
made except to order the 7th
Fleet to stand by. Secretary
Dulles obtained the green
light from President Eisen-
hover to warn the Commu-
nists not to break the present
shaky peace in the Formosa
Straits. But there are in
fluential persons in the ad-
ministration who fear that
any positive action by us
might be catastrophe TO the
brittle world peace. They
argue that there Is no point
in stirring things UP 50 soon
after we got over the scare
Of military involvement in
the Middle East because the
Communists want to take
over islands much closer to
the mainland than to For
mosa.
Those who argue for q gen.
timely strong stand in the
Formosa Straits point out
that this country has more
at stake in that portion Of
Asia than in the Middle East.
1t seems likely that we can
induce the Nationalist gov
eminent either to withdraw
from Matsu and Quemoy or
to put zip only q weak resist

such a surrender, however.
would be incalculable. Should
Chang accept an appease-

would be q mass uprising in

Top policy makers in the
State Department and penta-
gon cannot venture q guess
as to whether the Chinese
Communists attacks on the
Nationalist offshore islands
are an attempt to shoot their
way into the United Nations
or are q prelude to an invA-
sion Of Matsu and Quemoy,

Nobody in the free world
has any idea what was de-
cided at the recent parley
between Comrades Mao Tse-

Washington policy makers
appear more concerned over
the developments in the Far
East than they are over the
Middle East.

those opposed to Secretary
Dulles Far Eastern policies
that the possibility Of the
Nationalist losing the off,

through the House their bills
to correct such abuses. It
was in the Senate that the
death blow was inflicted,
largely by the efforts Of q
Democratic Senator who
comes from the South but
who, through his position Of
leadership, was able TO thwart
the will Of his fellow South
erners.
At the same time, q serious
blow was also dealt TO the
national interest, because the
battle against communism
and subversion IL by no means
sectional but affects the entire
national and international

The Texas Senator has
been declaring right along

now that his behavior has
encouraged rather than dis

There isn't any reason why
q Southerner shouldn't aspire

but the big question mark
now is what are Senator
Johnson's real convictions
and will he be able to square
himself with the South, which
hitherto has looked kindly on

the Communists have been
carrying on an intense prop
uganda campaign in For
mosa. They have urged union
with the mainland and
offered all military and civil
ian government ofi1cials as

Communists even suggested
last year that Chang become

dedicated ofdcials know what
this means. But will the
masses which have rallied

good and honest administra-

of the Communists were

The effects of appeaSement
