Formosa Question Before UN At Lake Success, N. Y., Russia's Jakob A. Malik, U. N. Security Council President this month, was expected to throw the Formosa issue into council discussions of the’ Korean crisis this afternoon. At Taipei, Formosa, Chinese Na- tionalist leaders said Red charges of U. S. armed aggression in For- mosa were a Soviet propaganda weapon aimed first at opening a new: propaganda campaign against the United States in Asia, and second, to counter Nationalist China’s charges of Soviet aggress- fon. It also would have the effect of diverting attention from Korea and confusing the United Nations. The new Communist move was opened by the Red China govern- ment, which sent a message to the U. N. charging the United States with aggression and announcing an intention to “liberate” Formosa. The U. 8. Seventh Fleet has been or- dered to guard Formosa from in- | vasion.
