Fleel Commander Warns On Attacks Warning Issued To Communist Pilots . * MANILA (INS) — The com- , jnander of the United States first fleet warned in Manila today that any future attacks on U. S. search planes by Communist aircraft will die met with live ammunition fired by American pilots. Vice Adm. W. K. Phillips, speak- „ Ing at a news conference aboard 'the aircraft carrier Hornet in Manila Bay, said the navy is ignoring Red China’s protest against the downing of two Communist planes. The two Chinese aircraft crashed in the South China Sea after attacking U. S. plane* searching for survivors of a British airliner shot down by the Reds. Adm. Phillips, who stressed that American pilots will meet fire with fire, said the two Chinese LA-7 propeller driven planes atj tacked the U. S. search planes last Monday well outside the 12- ~ piile territorial boundary ringing the Communist-held island of Hainan. The admiral emphasized that the Americans were conducting their search beyond the 12-mile limit precisely because the navy wished "to prevent any claim of provocation” on the part of the Reds. Phillips’ flagship dropped anchor at Manila at 7:55 Saturday morning and the admiral met newsmen ■lmmediately. K ~ Mrs. Garland Hardy, of Renssel- ! aer, is visiting her with her moth- ’ er, Mrs. M.
