Air of Coming Crisis
Felt in Chiangs Capital
TAIPEI, Formosa (AP) — A
sense of approaching crisis in
Formosa Strait pervades Chiang
Kai-Shek’s capital of Taipei.
The lull along the offshore is
land front is considered ominous.
It was broken Sunday only by the
burst of four Red shells on tiny
Nationalist Tatan Island, near
Quemoy, across the strait from
Formosa.
Search-Planes
Nationalist planes and war
ships swept the strait, looking for
possible Communist buildups near
Quemoy and the Matsu Islands.
100 miles northwest of Formosa.
If they found anything, it was
not reported. With the Commu
nists now on Nanchishan Island,
140 miles north of Formosa, the
Matsus and Quemoy are the only
important Nationalist offshore
holdings.
Possible Shakeup
The idea that events are brew
ing in the Formosa Strait that
might transform the entire situa
tion has spurred reports of a
shakup in Presidnt Chiang’s Cab
inet.
This may be decided at a meet
ing of the powerful Central Com
mittee of the Koumintang, Chi.
ang’s ruling party. It is scheduled
to open sessions Tuesday.
Military Man Wanted
Some quarters feel that the sit
uation demands appointment of a
new Premier, who in the Nation
alist setup heads the Cabinet, not
the government. They believe the
job calls for a military man.
O. K. Yui, the present Premier,
is rated as honest, capable and
hard working. But he has not
quite achieved Chiang's closest
inner circle. He also has no mili
tary experience.
Fight to the Death
Yui had talked about fighting
to the death for the Tachens and
Nanchishan, all abandoned with
out a fight.
He may have been talking for
public consumption or to delude
the Communists. It is possible,
however, that although Premier
