MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNX FIVE
Third Letter From Wests
Tells of Formosan Visit
(Editor's note: From Taipeh, Formosa, Dr. D. Kirkland West
has sent the Mail Tribune his third letter dealing with conditions
in the far east. Dr. West and his wife are on a "Ministry to Mis
sions" world tour. He is pastor of the Presbyterian church here.)
Medford the first two weeks of ;
Text of the last correspon
dence, dated Sunday, July 10,
follows:
" 'Formosa' means 'beautiful.'
For once a place more than lives
up to its name. Yesterday's trip
made me homesick for the rocky
gorges of the Rogue river. The
mountains shot straight up from
a roaring rock studded river to
over 10,000 feet. Looking into
the deep green water one could
see trout swimming around just
waiting for a competent angler.
"We hiked up a steep mount
ain path, by soldiers carefully
checking our passes, and finally
came to the little Christian
church of the aborigines. These
people were once known as the
'Formosa Head Hunters.' A man
could not be considered a suitor
until he had proven his man
hood by taking at least one head.
Changed -
"Yet these very people had
been changed by the Gospel and
the little children sang 'Jesus
Loves Me' in their native Tyal
dialect.
"At the foot of the mountain
we met several soldiers who had
been Chinese .Communist sol
diers but who had been captured
by our American troops. While
prisoners they were visited by
the Rev. Earl Woodbury, a Pres
byterian missionary, and they re
nounced Communism and Mr.
Woodbury was decorated by both
President Eisenhower and Presi
dent Chiang Kai-shek.
"Mr. Woodbury was with me
and he called these soldiers over
and we were shown the Chinese
Nationalist flag tatooed on their
chest-and on their left arms
the marks 'Oppose Communism.
Resist Russia.' These men will
pay with their lives if ever they
are captured -by the Commu
nists. Yet here is the hope for the
free world over 30,000 former
Communists chose to come to
freedom and Taiwan leaving
home and family rather than re
turn to Communism. Here is a
story that should be told over
and over Communism can be
licked and millions under, the
heel of Communism long to be
free and will fight to the death
to regain that fiedom.
Answer, 'No' . 1
"Do the people of Formosa
think they will soon return to
the mainland? The answer to
that is 'No.' They are quite real-
DRUNK KILLS MOTHER
Tampa, Fla. U.R Daniel
G. McDaniel, 35, sobered up in
jail and moaned, "I still can't
believe it." While drunk, police
charged Saturday, he had bat
tered his 70-year-old mother to
death. McDaniel was arrested
Friday after the bruised, blood
ied body of Mrs. Bessie Coken
McDaniel was found in ' her
home. Four rooms were disar
rayed. . '. ,
fear that we will give in to the
Communists and will sign over
Formosa to them as we gave the
Communists all of Manchuria
and parts of Japan at Yalta.
"One . very well informed
American said, 'Why. do we al
We could have defeated the Chi
nese in Korea had we . been al
ways throw away our victories?
lowed to and . we could have
saved China in so doing.' You
may not agree with his position
but it is one he holds along with
many more who know the true
situation.
Today is Sunday and I have
visited four church services al
ready this morning and spoken
at each service. This afternoon I
have two more services at which
I am to speak.
"If I am to get this out by the
2 p.m. mail I must stop now.
More impressions will be sent
from Hong Kong where we go on
Tuesday."
