President Eisenhower outlined a plan for the government to accept the high court invitation to participate in tomorrow's Supreme Court session on the Little Rock integration issue while denying he wished the 1954 filing against segregation had not been made. He noted Nationalist China has deployed about a third of its forces to Formosa and declined to say if a Red invasion of Quemoy and Matsu would trigger U.S. intervention.
