Nationalists Bombard
Chinese Mainland
For 12th Straight Day
TAIPEH, Formosa, (ill—Nation
alist Chinese air force and navy
Tuesday bombarded the Red-held?
mainland opposite Formosa for
the 12th straight day, the defense
ministry announced.
A special communique said!
three Communist “water ghosts”
—frogmen—attempted to' land on
the north coast of Quemoy but
were driven off by an alert sen
try. The water ghosts presumably
were after prisoners.
Quemoy about seven miles off
the big Red base of Amoy, has
been the center of a “vest pocket
war” between the Communists
and Nationalists since Sept. 3,
when Red guns on the mainland
shelled the island outpost for five
hours.
Nationalist Prime Minister O.
K. Yui told the legislative Yuan
Red China’s threats to “liberate”
Formosa, plus Communist activity
in the Quemoy area, emphasize
Russia’s determination to make
the Pacific Ocean a Soviet lake.
Yui pledged that Nationalist
troops will defend not only Que
moy but other offshore islands as
well. He described the islands as
“springboards for a counterattack
against the mainland.”
