Reds Stand Blocks New Appraisal Of Islands Defense
Washington sources say Red China’s refusal to consider a Formosa cease fire blocks a possible US reevaluation of the Quemoy and Matsu islands. US policy hinges on whether a cease fire and guarantees could remove these islets from Formosa’s defense, with Eisenhower’s decision tied to any attack there and to allied pledges for Formosa. Senator Wiley signals he would back withdrawing US protection from Quemoy and Matsu if an allied defense commitment for Formosa is secured.
