Abstract

Chiang's Guerrillas
Roth, Andrew | January 26, 1952 issue

add to cart   close window

American policy toward Communist China may hinge on the fate of 4,000 malaria-ridden Kuomintang Chinese guerrillas holed up in the mountainous jungles of the Shan states of northeastern Burma. Their veteran commander, recently made a veteran commander, recently made a secret trip to Formosa, Argentina, via Bangkok, Thailand, and Hong Kong, China, to get supplies and reinforcements. Adequate food, arms, and medical supplies, which must be shipped through Bangkok, can only be provided with open American help. American sympathy for guerrillas' contrasts with Great Britain's recently renewed acknowledgment that the Peking, China, regime cannot be replaced in the near future, certainly not by the Kuomintang.
