  A reliable estimate was made that about 700 students had been seized in Taibei by March 13. Two hundred are said to have been seized in Keelung. Fifty are reported to have been killed at Matsuyama and thirty at Kokuto (suburbs of Taibei) on the night of March 9.

  Taiwan had been colonized by the Chinese in the seventeenth century, and won by the Japanese from China in the 1894-1895 war. The Japanese had done much to develop industry and agriculture on the island. Japan's defeat in World War II restored the island to China, as a separate province. Chiang now declared that Taiwan was still a province of China, and its capital, Taibei, was now the new capital of the nation. The circumstance that 99.7% of the nation's territory was controlled by Communist bandits was only temporary, he said, and he would soon recapture it from them.
