GENERAL VAN FLEET'S VIEWS
Washington, Jan. 26.
General James van Fleet, former Eighth Army Commander in Korea, said today that President Eisenhower's policy on Formosa gave “the green light" for the Chinese Com- munists to take the offshore Nationalist islands.
Speaking to reporters, General van Fleet said that he thought the Formosa policy resolution before Congress merely "restated in formal language" what the United States had

General van Fleet said that the Administra- tion's decision as he understood them from what he had read could deal a severe blow to morale among the Chinese Nationalists.
"It could end the hopes of returning to the mainland," he said, "and it is that hope that has kept up their spirits."-Reuter.

The Police ordered an autopsy today on the body of Howard Robert Stewart-Baker, 37, the "Perfect Butler" who died as he lived, posing as someone else.

The authorities thought he was a wealthy British tourist called Howard de las Casas who lived in a fine home in London's arty Chelsea.
