Nationalist China disclosed that its navy seized the 8000 ton Soviet tanker Tuapse and is keeping it under armed guard at Kaohsiung Harbor in Formosa. The ship, sailing to Manchuria with oil, was intercepted off Southern Formosa last week. Guards with bayoneted rifles were placed aboard to protect the Russian crew as the vessel anchored beside Polish ships Praca and President Gottwald, which had been seized earlier in the blockade. Crew members may seek asylum as did 33 Polish sailors aboard the other ships. No U.S. comment yet.
