I think (but am not sure) the paper you're after is:
Hao Wang. 'The Formalization of Mathematics'. J. Symbolic Logic. 19:4, 
241-266. (Dec. 1954)

Wang wrote a more philosophically motivated article the next year that 
bears some relevance:
Hao Wang. 'On Formalization'. Mind. 64:354, 226-238.

Hope they're the right ones; sorry if they aren't.

Best, KW
