TAIPEI, Formosa (UP) The of

Tuesday Nationalist China would
withdraw from United Nations U
Red China "shoots" her way into
the international organization.
The declaration by the newspap
er which reflects the Nationalist
official viewpoint came as the Na
tionalist press berated the United
States for meeting representatives
of Red China at Geneva. .
. "The day the Chinese Commu
nists shoot their way into the Unit
ed Nations we shall withdraw from
the. world body within the hour,"
the Central Daily News said in an
editorial. "We shall never co-exist
with them.
Spiritual Loss
"If it did happen it would not
only be a loss for the Republic of
China but also a serious blow, both
moral and spiritual to the United
States, the leader of the democratic
world."
The bitter editorial came shortly
after Foreign Minister George Yeh
said in a prepared statement he
hoped the release of American civ
ilians still held by the Communists
.'would not be made a subject of
political bargaining."
Veh hailed Peiping's release of
theVl American fliers but he ac
cused Red China "of purposely pro
longing the suspense and anxiety
in order to achieve the meeting on
the ambassadorial level with the
Americans."

Korean Truce
In Third Year,
Still No Peace
By ROBERT BROWN
I'nited Pivtid Staff I'uireupoiuknt
PANMUNJOM, Korea (UP) It
was supposed to be just a normal
armistice when it was signed.
But this "temporary" Korean
truce entered its third year this
month.
No peace is in sight. Far from
it there is a growing uneasiness
in ttie United Nations Command
over the concentrated military
build-up in Communist North Kor
ea.
The build-up, of course, is in;
flagrant violation of tne armistice.
In two years, the Red violations
have multiplied.
When the shooting war ended,
the North Koreans had no jet
fighter planes and no military air
fields.
Today the Korean Reds have a
modern air force of 300 Russian-
bombers. They have at least 15
air bases and more are under con
struction. Ijitext Russian Kquipment
The 600,000-man Nortli Korean
army is getting the latest in Run
sian equipment, including new catapult-type
guns mounted on trucks.
The U.N. Command says that
the Communist military force in
North Korea now totals more than
1,200.000 men.
The U.N. Command has lived up
to its word in the armistice not
to strengthen its position. It has
brought no new equipment into
south Korea.
The United States has pulled out
most of its MIG-killing jet fighter
force.
The U.N. ground force has
dwindled from eight United States
divisions to two under-sted divi
sions. Few combat veterans are
left.
Of the other allied countries that
sent ground troops to fight the
Reds, all that remains are a small
British Commonwealth division,
5000 Turkish troops and a com
pany each from Greece, Thailand
and Ethiopia.
But the Republic of Korea-
South Korea is better able to de
fend itself than It was when the
Reds struck across the 38th par
allel of latitude on June 25, 1950.
KOK Arms Old
The equipment of the South Kor
ean army is old. But South Korea
now has trie fourth largest army
in the world with 20 active divi
sions of about 14,000 men each and
10 reserve divisions whioh.-are-being
built up to 1(T,000 men each.
In 1950, the South Korean army
numbered 100,000 men. They had
no heavy weapons.
Now South Korea has American
Patton and Walker bulldog tanks.
In 1950, It had for Its air force
only 10 Canadian war-surplus train
er planes and 12 other light planes.
Now it has the first five F86 sabre
jets of a new jet air wing.
Plans call for the training of
1000 jet pilots by the end of the
year.
In addition, South Korea has 100
propeller-driven Mustang - fighters
and 12 C46 transport planes.
In 1950, South Korea had no
navy. Today it has four frigates
and 64 other war craft. It soon wilt
get 27 more vessels, Including two
destroyers, in a three-year build
up program started this year.

Russia's Nikila S. Khrushchev
and Nikolai A, Bulganin have as
sured the Kast German Commu
nists that the Kremlin would not
dream of selling them out.
The German Reds, in "turn, say
they are not worried over any
deals that their Moscow friends
may make.
But it may be taken for granted
that the Fast Germans are not
happy. The same goes for the Po
lish Reds.
They must look forward with
concern to the negotiations which
West German Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer is to hold in Moscow in
September, and to the talks the
Big Four foreign ministers are to
have In Geneva in October.
It has been suggested that Ade
nauer has everything to win and
nothing to lose by going to Moscow.
Puppets May Lose
The East German and Polish
Communists, on the other hand,
seem to have everything to lose
and nothing to win.
Khrushchev, the first secretary
of the Russian Communist Party,
and Bulganin, the Soviet Premier,
flew right to Berlin from Geneva
Sunday after the Big Four Sum
mit Conference.
They stayed until yesterday, as
suring the East German leaders
that everything would be all right.
The Soviet Union feels that the
German problem can not be solved

The FPC is considering an ap

for three low dams in the canyon
on the Idaho-Oregon bolder. Morse

and that the German Democratic
Republic, more than ever, can
count on the unconditional support
of the Soviet Union," the news
paper said.
Neues Deutschland said that the
"timing" of the Khrushehev-Bul-
ganin visit was "especially nota

Nobody will deny that. When
Khrushchev and Bulganin went to
Yugoslavia to see President Tito,
they made it a point to visit Bul
garia, Romania and Poland on
the way home. They assured the
Red leaders of those countries that
no dirty work was afoot. . -.
The East Germans must realize

The Poles must realize that their

chronic ills which have helped
