DISCLOSURE

Augusta, Georgia, Apr. 17.

The Secretary of State, Mr John Foster Dulles, revealed today that the United States had just learned of a mighty build-up of Red Chinese air power on the mainland opposite Formosa.

Mr Dulles told reporters after conferring with President Eisenhower that the US had learned of the new offensive air strength across the Formosan Strait within the "last few days."

The 'Secretary said he discussed with Mr Eisen.

hower, in a two-hour conference at the President's vacation headquarters, the "grave implications" of a Red build-up that was "considerably broader in scope than anything that was known until recently,”

Mr Dulles declined to say whether he thought the build-p heralded an attack upon the islands of Quemoy, Matsu or Formosa, but he said it indicated a higher "capability" for such an attack "than we had been aware of a few weeks ago."
