FUTURE OF FORMOSA
U.N. TRUSTEESHIP PROPOSED
(Rec. 10 p.m.) TOKYO, August 25. The Formosan Independence Party, composed of Formosan natives living in Japan, to-day circulated foreign newspapermen pleading that Formosa should be handed over to United Nations trusteeship under the Japanese Peace Treaty. The party charged the Chinese Nationalists with inefficient rule of their island since the Japanese surrendered and with putting the island in danger of Chinese Communist invasion. The party wants United Nations trusteeship to start from the signing of the Japanese Peace Treaty, with a plebiscite held in Formosa a year later to decide whether Formosans want independence or want to be united with “China.”
