Nationalist island of Taiwan
He was also occupied with
such statements as, “The
Chinese people are determined
to liberate Taiwan and no force
on earth can stop us from doing
so,” and that the U. S.
government, after the out
break of the Korean War, “sent
armed forces to invade and
occupy China’s Taiwan...”
To date, the Taiwan Chinese
have given no indication that
they would like to be
“liberated” by their Mainland
cousins, nor were they aware
that Generalissimo Chiang
Kai-shek’s call for assistance
was an “occupational in-
vasion”.
Our personal visits to Taiwan
in 1952-’53, showed an island of
people living a very normal
and “unoccupied” life.
Perhaps even more normal
than Japan, which was, in fact,
occupied.
Chiao has even turned
against Isreal, who if we recall,
voted FOR the entry of Red
China into the UN. He has sided
with the Arabs and demanded
that the Israeli forces be
removed from Arab territory.
We weren’t the only ones
surprised at Israel’s vote, and
have speculated that Israel
would have voted quite the
opposite in the young days of
their fight for independence.
Pandora’s box has had it’s lid
blown off and the red hoard has
been given a pat on the back
and told, “You have what
you’ve always wanted, now be
nice.” It’s about the same as
telling a rattler not to bite you
now that you’ve taken your
boot off his back.
Where do we go from here?
Wonder if Mars could use
some of our excess flood water
to dampen that dust storm up
there...CWW

prepared the same as those
inside the city.
“This action will eliminate
the urge to annex an area just
so it can be improved through
city ordinances,” Norwood
explained. “With the city
expected to experience con-
siderable growth in the next
decade, extending authority
over the bordering areas will
speed preparations for the time
when they will be annexed,” he
concluded
In further action, the
council: approved a $3,789 bid
by L. T. Kolb Chevrolet for a
two-ton truck, to be used for
heavy load operations; tabled
until the next meeting
discussion of installing a sewer
system in the Walker-Nix
Subdivision, in order to clear
up some legal matters en-
volved in billing for the sewer
line; and instructed the city
manager to draw up an or-
dinance lowering the liability
insurance rates for city pest
control firms. The new rates
would be $25,000 for individual
liability, $50,000 for aggregate
and $25,000 for property
damage liability.
