Abstract

The article discusses the violent anti-American riot in Formosa as a result of U.S. Army Robert G. Reynolds's court-martial who was charged with the murder of a Chinese. It states that the verdict found Reynolds not guilty based on the self-defense plea which triggered protests from the Chinese widow and eventually started the riot whereby several Marine guards and employees in the U.S. embassy were beaten and stoned by the rioters. Moreover, U.S. Senator William Knowland denounced the riot.
