U S Seen Okaying Bid To Chinese
Western diplomats predicted the U N Security Council would invite Red China to a debate on a Communist Nationalist cease fire as it meets on the Formosa question. Nations in Washington London and Moscow moved to manage the crisis amid U S Senate backing of Eisenhower on Formosa. New Zealand called the council meeting with Britain backing the invitation though Nationalist China and the Soviet Union expected to abstain or veto such moves as procedural. The cease fire would cover Nationalist islands near the Chinese mainland and Congress authorized U S forces to protect Formosa and the Pescadores if needed. Sir Leslie Knox Munro of New Zealand summoned the council and said Peiping should be invited to attend.
