At the Ambassadorial Level

Everybody on Formosa-even the American VIPs—talks in terms of invading the China Mainland. Then why that Marathon discussion in Geneva?

Shortly before this past Christmas, Senators Albert Gore and Mike Monroney came home from a Far Eastern jaunt with lungs full of hot wind and throats cleared for a mighty squawk. Towards the end of their tour they had stopped over briefly in Taipei (Free China) and there had made what they thought a truly horrendous discovery. This they were going to take straight to the White House, the Pentagon and the Congress. They were going to demand, and confidently expected to get, the recall of every high ranking American diplomatic and military person-age on the island of Formosa.
