It is w/ heavy heart that I note that a former ally, Britain, which sacrified millions of lives on the Altar of Freedom, has now been taken by its leaders into the wilderness of political intrigue.

History has recorded w/ devastating Truth that Right will prevail. Russia will never know one day of peace in China; Russia will never own China. China will remain free.” 02:27:36 Dean Acheson speaking at microphone on table: “The belief is held by some that the forces now in control of the mainland of China are unfriendly to us, and that we should therefore prevent the fall of that island. Technically, they contend, we have a right to do so since no treaty of peace has been signed w/ Japan. Whatever may be the legal situation, the United States of America is not going to quibble about the integrity of its position. As the President has stated we are not going to use our forces in connection with the present situation in Formosa. We are not going to attempt to seize the island; we are not going to get involved militarily in any way on the island of Formosa. 02:28:32 LS General Assembly of United Nations from rear of delegates. 02:28:37 Security Council meeting w/ Chinese delegate.
