FATE OF U.N. HINGES ON NATIONALIST CASE AGAINST USSR Generalissimo's views on world situation
Taipeh, April 15.
Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek said today that the life or death of the United Nations hinges on its handling of Nationalist China's case against Russia.
The Generalissimo also warned that the Pacific countrics must have a
clear common objective to fight Communism.
Chiang Kai-shok, in top physical condition, vigorous and emphatic in com- ments and with a hearty sense of humour or scathing sarcasm, wearing an unadorned uniform with no insignia of any kind, talked for one hour and 15 minutos on such issues as the fate of the United Nations, the Pacific Union, British relationships with the Chinese Communists and the possibility of halting Communism short of a now world war,
He discussed the current status of more than $50,000,000) enuntry- men unter the Commualst banner. With laughs he made plain his views on the British-Chinesi Com- munist relations and scorned the ides of Communist leader Mao Tse-tung becoming a Chinese Tito. Chiang replied with a quick answer to the question of his thoughts un prospects of the charges made by Chlom in the United Nations against Russia.
