FORMOSA IS IMPORTANT, SAYS MacARTHUR
....
Chicago, Aug. 28.
General Douglas MacArthur told à Veterans of Foreign Wars annual camp here today that by holding a Pacific island defence line, "we may have peace - but lose it, and war is inevitable."
In a cabled message to the ex-Servicemen, General MacArthur gave great military importance to Formosa, the last military stronghold of Chinese Nationalist forces.
