Navy Secretary Reverses
Truman’s Policy In
Regard To Formosa
TOKYO, (/P)—$J.S. Secretary of
Navy Dan A. Kimball believes the
United States Navy will continue
to protect Formosa regardless of
what happens in Korea, a Navy
spokesman said Thursday.
The spokesman, who is travel
ling with the Kimball party on
its Far Eastern tour, said:
“That is the Secretary’s inter
pretation of the present policy in
Washington.”
It marks a departure from pol
icy statements made by President
Truman at the start of the Korean
war. The President at that time
linked the use of the U.S. Seventh
fleet to defend Formosa with the
Korean war.
On June 27, 1950, the President
ordered the Seventh Fleet to pre
vent any attack on Formosa and
called on the Chinese Nationalist
government on the island to* cease
all air and sea operations against
the China mainland.
Since then, the Seventh Fleet
has maintained small patrols in
Formosan waters while the most
of its vessels have been concen
trated off the coast of Korea.
The spokesman said Kimball
was not backing down on what
he told newsmen Wednesday on
Navy policy regarding Formosa.

Navy “Ski Jump” Plane
Loses Engine Over Arctic ;
POINT BARROW, (AMNS) —;
After one engine failed, forcing
the crew to jettison three tons of
gasoline, a Navy Neptune patrol!
bomber was able to return to its;
base here today. When the plane
was forced to turn 'back it was
out over the ice cap more than
700 miles north of Pt. Barrow.
The Neptune was to have rendez
voused with the R4D “flying lab”
at a point about 800 miles north
of Pt. Barrow. The two ski-equip
ped aircraft had planned to es
tablish station number two of the
Navy's polar expedition that will
be climaxed with landings on a
floating ice island and the North
Pole.
Lt. Cmdr. E. M. Ward, pilot of
the R4D “lab” continued on to
establish an intermediate ocean
ographic station. The R4D with
its crew, scientists and oceano
graphers are still “on station”
somewhere on the polar cap.
Lt. Cmdr. Kephart brought the
Neptune back to Barrow on one
engine and landed safely. An ex
amination of the faulty engine re
vealed the need for a complete
engine change which meant work
that must be done at hangerless
Point Barrow in weather ranging
from minus 10 degrees to minus
40.
A new engine, tools and mech
anics were flown from the Kodiak
Navy Base and delivered to Pt.
Barrow only 22 hours after the
disabled Neptune had returned to
base.

Vote For
Richard E. Lee
Republican Candidate
for
House of Representatives
At The
Primary Election, April 29th
You, the taxpayers of the Second
Division, are vitally interested in
having your tax dollars put to their
most effective use by our govern
ment.
You, as voters, are also interested
in obtaining people representing you
at the Territorial Legislature who are
QUALIFIED to work and fight for
your individual interests. I want to
see the Second Division given its
proportionate amount of tax monies
rightfully due it for the constructive
development of the economy of our
country.
In the 37 years I have lived in the
Second Division and during the 17 j
years I have been actively engaged
in mining as manager of Lee Broth
ers Dredging Co., I have acquired a
knowledge and understanding of the
needs of our country and our people
which, in my opinion, qualifies me
completely to assume the responsi
bilities of good legislation and legis
lative procedure.
