Chiang Kai-Shek warns against easing embargo on Communist China
Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek told United Press in a exclusive interview that any relaxation of the embargo by the United States and Britain would aid the Chinese Communists. He warned Western powers to avoid moves that could undermine the embargo and said China needs help while accusing Communists of seeking to draw American scientific knowledge through cultural exchanges. He denied reports of an imminent Communist peace and said the mainland would not gain independence from Formosa.
