cial of the ment's position:
(1) No milltary action by the United States in defence of Tai- wan or Hainan Island was to be expected. Taiwan could be kept out of the bands of the Chi- nese Communists by limited finan- clal and technical assistance, that was worth exploring. But the resources of Generalissimo Chlang Kal-shek, among other things, must be checked before additional aid was approved.
(2) Talwan was strategically important brut not important enough to risk the creation another "Spanish situation" In which the Soviet Union might back the Chinese Communists in an assault on Talwan while the United States might "maslar- mind the defence.
(3) Military, action was per haps not the only way to keep Talwan out of, the hands of the Chinese Communists. Taiwan Was still legally a part of Japan.. If a peacă conferènce were called, without the Soviet Union, it might be possible to place the island' under United Nations trusteeship.
