EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Monday, April II, 1955 Nationalists To Bear Responsibility In Defense of Matsy, Quemoy Isles Eisenhower's Advisers Declared Backing Away From Earlier Stand Washington (U.R) The Chi nese Nationalists will bear the primary responsibility of de fending the Quemoy and Matsu islands under present adminis tration policy, it was learned to day. Some of President Eisenhow ers top advisers were reported backing away from their earlier stand that the United States has no course but to defend the off shore islands if they are attack ed by the Chinese Reds. Several Reasons 'There are several reasons for a change of mind by the advis ers, it was said, including the attitude of U.S. allies and the be lief that Americans generally are not in favor of getting in- they are given enough U.S. ma terials of war. These officials also feel, it was said, that strengthening of Chiang Kai-shek's forces on the outpost islands might discourage the Communists from making a major attack against them. Officials Tighllipped These are considered two of the main reasons for President Eisenhower's refusal to indicate in advance what the United States will do about defending the islands. Informed officials in the ad ministration are more tight- lipped about the situation than ever since Adm. Robert B. Car- nev's background talk with newsmen. But officials close to the prob- volved in an all out war over ( lem believe the President will the islands. Some top policy officials m the administration apparently believe that the Chinese Nation alists could defend the islands if withhold his decision on defend ing the islands until they are actually attacked in order to weigh the nature and serious ness of the challenge. Stevenson Will Tell Position on Formosa Crisis in Major Talk Chicago (U.R) Adlai E. Stevenson, titular head of the Democratic party, will break a silence of four months tonight to tell the nation where t he stands on the Formosa crisis. It was expected that the 1952 presidential candidate would op pose any attempt to involve the United States in war over the Nationalist-held offshore islands oi Quemoy and Matsu . Stevenson's speech, billed as "non-political," was to be broad cast nationally over two radio networks the Columbia Broadcasting system between 7 and 7:30 p.m. (PST) and the National Broadcasting system, in a recording, between 7:30 and 8 p.m. (PST). The former Illinois .governor has not made a major speech on national issues since last De cember. He decided to speak out in response to a "heavy volume" of mail asking his stand on for eign policy, a spokesman said. Many Support President Stevenson, now in private law practice here, wrote his speech during the week end. He offer ed no hints as to its contents, but friends said he is anxious to give the American people a clear picture of what he thinks is at stake in the Far East. His speech will also spell out where he differs with the Eis enhower administration's policy of guaranteeing protection of the Chinese Nationalist bastion of Formosa and of hinting pro tection for Quemoy and Matsu, Stevenson's friends said. On the other hpnd, friends said, Stevenson may support Mr. Eisenhower in ' his differences with Republicans who demand a more vigorous Far Eastern pro gram. Stevenson's speech was sure to be watched for indications of where a sizeable wing of the Democratic party stands. It was reported that fie began his speech writing with a draft pre pared by Democratic foreign policy experts, including form er Secretary of State Dean Ach eson. However, Stevenson's law partner, William McCormick Blair, said the address will not be cleared with party leaders in Washington because it does not deal with party politics. Whether or not it is "politi cal," the speech may help deter mine the former candidate's po sition in his own party. Steven son has been prominently men tioned as the Democrats' most likely 1956 candidate, if he wants the nomination. But Stev enson has , given no indication of whether he will run again. Policeman's Search Ends at Door Step Jacksonville, Fla (U.R) Policeman M. J. Byrd Jr., search ed all day for a stolen car driven by a man also wanted for passing bad checks. He went off duty at midnight without finding a trace of the car or its driver. As he stepped from his auto at home a man stepped from the bushes brand ishing a knife. Byrd drew his service revolver and disarmed the man. He took a closer look. It was the man he had hunted all day and the car for which he had been searching was nearby. "I was just driving around looking for a room for the night," the man protested. "I think I can find you one," Byrd said as he snapped on the handcuffs. BE PROMPT Hartford, Conn. (U.R) Motor Vehicles Inspector Charles F. Kelley said wives should see to it that their husbands are punc tual. "It's the wife who waits in line when her husband forgets to renew a license, or registra tion," he said. POLITICAL BIAS Hastings, Neb. (U.R) The woman didn't have to tell any one how she felt politically when she resisted her organiza tion's plan for a white elephant sale. She wanted it changed to a white donkey sale. Less than 2.5 per cent of Americans over 14 years cannot read or write any language. Most of the illiterates are found to be in the older age groups.
