Dulles Hints at Possible Chiang Deal on Quemoy
Secretary of State Dulles may pursue a deal with Chiang Kai-shek next week to limit Nationalist use of the Quemoy and Matsu islands. A settlement could ease Formosa tensions with Britain and other allies as Dulles travels from Rome to Taipei and considers talks with West European diplomats before meeting Chiang. The shift reflects changes in Formosa crisis and U S hopes for a possible understanding with Peiping rivals, despite indications the Communists do not want a bargain.
