(AP Wirephoto) Chou Claims Right to Isle BANDUNG, Indonesia (AP) — Red China's Chou En-Lai said Sunday night Peiping will not give up the “sovereign right to liberate" Formosa, even though it wants talks with the United States to ease tension in the area. Chou spoke at the closing plen ary session of the 29-nation As ian-African conference. Follow ing up his statement of Saturday that Red China does not want war with the United States and would like direct talks on the Formosan crisis, he said: “China and the United States should sit down and ease ten sion in the Taiwan Formosa area. Liberation Right “This should not in the slight est degree, however, effect the exercise by the Communist peo ple's republic of China of its sovereign right in the liberation of Taiwan." Chou made no reference in his final speech to imprisoned U.S. airmen, whose release some thought he would announce to help relax international tension. Seven-Day Conference The conference wound up seven days of deliberations and debates. marked frequently by clashes be tween pro and anth-Communi>ts among the delegates, and issued a long communique on the dele gates' recommendations. The delegates demanded an end to production, experimenta tion. and use of nuclear and i thermonuclear weapons and ef : fective international control to carry out the ban. The conference resolutions I ranged over such subjects as the promotion of world peace and i cooperation, economic and cul tural cooperation among the Asian and African countries, and human rights and self-determina tion for all peoples. The communique said member ship in the U.N. should be uni versal in order'to promote world peace. This wqs the closest it cama to demanding membership for Red China in U.N. The communique also said As ; ian-African countries should be 1 eligible for election to the non ; permanent seats on the U.N. Se j curity Council in order for them I to make a more effective con ^ tribution to peace and security.

A Nationalist Foreign Office informant expressed doubt that the offer of Premier Chou En Lai of Red China to negotiate with the United Slates on the Formosa crisis even came up. Chiang conferred in the after noon with VV'alter Robertson, as sistant U.S. secretary of state, and Adm. Arthur W. Radford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Exchanged Views They exchanged views on the U.S.-Nationalist treaty under which the United States guaran tees to defend Formosa and the adjacent Pescadores from any Tied attack. The meeting was described as amicable. This contrasted with gloomy speculation among Nationalists' that at the least Chiang would J be asked to abandon the offshore islands of Quemoy and the Mat-; sus. Some U.S. quarters expressed i belief developments might not be ! that severe for the Nationalists, who have vowed to defend both Quemoy, across the strait, and the Matsus. 120 miles northwest of Formosa.
