Formosa Showdown Looms as Chiang Plans Stand
Formosa sits at the center of a security debate as Washington weighs options to deter a potential invasion. General Douglas MacArthur warns of Formosa's strategic value, while opinions split on U.S. occupation versus regional containment.

Washington observers expect cautious, watchful policy rather than rapid action.
