President. we do not now have a program adequate to stop the advance of communism. Only yesterday on the Island of Hainan large numbers of Chinese who detest communism laid down their lives to prevent its spread. and yet there was no help from the Government of the United States. On the island of Formosa there is today stationed the strongest antiCommunist army of the Asiatic peoples now in existence. The army which is there entrenched to prevent the spread of communism is under one of the most famed Chinese generals who is hostile to communism. Yet they have been repudiated by the Government of the United States. and our country. the last bastion of capitalism. has checked them off.
