Formosa: Prime Example Of An Unplanned Mess Washington. — Formosa, prime example of an unplanned mess, is fogbound at the moment because no noe outside the inner circles of the Eisenhower administration and the Red Chinese government knows what to expect next. They may not be too sure either. ■But if the administration makes concessions to the Communists, the real Formosan fighting maty come, not in or around the island, but inside the Republican party. Neither the American govern ment nor the Chinese Communists planned the present Formosan dilemma long-range. It just grew. This government would not hove interfered if the Reds had grabbed Formosa when they drove Chiang Kai-shek there in 1949. President TYiiman said so. He was disgusted with Chiang at the time. Thk Reds stayed on the mainland, missed their chance. Truman decided to defend the island, to keep the fighting from spreading, iwhen the Korean War began. When the Chinese Reds got into it, Chiang became a full- fledged American ally. He could not then be abandoned. Beginning last fall the Chinese Communists made such loud vows about taking Formosa it’s diffi cult to see how thye oan back ^ down 7 unless they enough concessions can wring from the administration to Eisenhower save face. In turn, ‘President Eisenhower talked tough. He got Congress to pass a resolution giving him pow er to defend Formosa as he saw fit, and he vowed to defend it. This quieted, at least temporar ily, Sen. Know! and (R-Calif), leader of Republicans who have demanded tough action. There was nothing for Knowland to do but iw«R to see how tough Eisenhower would be. Eisenhower let the Reds have several Chiang-held islands, ex plaining they weren’t worth de fending and that Formosa’s de fenses would be stronger without them. Yesterday the Reds began talking tougher than ever. They may begin probing attacks on two more island groups, Quemoy and Matsu to see whether Eisenhower lets them go without a fight, too. What will Eisenhower do about those islands? He hasn’t said. He wants a cease-fire. What price is he wMUng to pay: All the Chiang- held islands except Formosa and the Pescadores? Those are the only ones he specifically has said he’d defend. Yielding any more islands might be too much for Knowland and force an explosion in the Repub- licna parity because the questions to which the administration does not know the answer to at this time are: Will the Reds accept a cease fire? If they do, will they live u& to ti? Or are they crazy to force a war for Formosa? The Reds have some advantage as long as they can keep the ad ministration guessing. But if the administration gets a cease-fire and pledges itself to observe it, Chiang can kiss goodby any hope of recapturing China unless the Reds break the truce or in some other way force a war on the United States. S. C. Legislature To Debate Milk Price Controls Columbia.—Milk price con trios will be a subject tor debate in the General Assembly this week. The House will have up for piv otal second reading Tuesday an Agriculture Committee bill to give the State Dairy Commission the stand-by power to control milk prioes. The power would become effec tive only in an area of the state where a milk price war either broke out or was threatened. The commission found it had no weapons last year with which to successfully fight a milk price war threatened in the Greenville area. Director James E. Cushman of the commission said that outbreak began with retail outlets selling milk at less than cost as a price gran titles .t ttreat* re- j f Me Lour in Chosen duced prices. The fear then he said was that all .the pric ©cutting ultimately. . r, w 1A T ... would be borne by (he tanntrs onV > 4 -' ***"*> whose dairy farms the milk was produced. The biH that will be up in the House gives the commission the power to establish statewide uni form milk purchasing and pro duction incentive plan, and the power to license milk distributors. U would also give hfe commis sion authority to license retail milk outlets in any area declared under control during a price war or a threat of one. Milk producers and distributors in any price-fixed areas—control led markets, the milks calls them —would be assessed for the cost of administering the price control.
