State dept bars Dulles Chou meeting over Red China behavior
Washington officials ruled out any meeting between Secretary Dulles and Premier Chou En-lai until the Reds fulfill and renounce under strong terms their Sept. 10 agreement to release 13 U.S. prisoners and to offer a meaningful renunciation of force over Formosa.
