MacARTHUR LOOKS GOOD, SAYS LITILE; BELIEF IN PEACE (Editor’s Note: Herbert G. Klein, news editor of the Alham- bra, Calif., Post-Advocate, re- turned recently from a three weeks air tour of the Far East. The fol- lowing is his story, written for the Copley Newspapers, of his ex- clusive interview with Gen. Mac- Arthur in Tokyo.) By HERBERT G. KLEIN ALHAMBRA, Calif, March 27— (P—The tall man sat easily in an overstuffed chair and puffed at his pipe as he talked in scholarly fashion about peace. Resembling a college professor in| his late fifties, the philosopher‘ traced the development of man cul- turally, physically and in the ability to get along with others. ) He was speaking of the possibility of world survival and universal peace. The man, who was relaxed in his | chair and speaking quietly, was the 70-year-old ruler of Japan, hero of the Philippines and the leader of the American invasion and occupa- tion of this land. I It was Gen. Douglas MacArthur, al enldier and inoceninue nrafaccinnal usk s strategist, who was taking time out | for a few minutes from his job of planning the defense of the Asiatic sphere and the administration over 80,000,000 Japanese. | ‘While he talks of peace, the Gen- | | eral does not minimize the situation | in the Orient. “It’s explosive,” is his comment, Jet fighters, long range bombers and four div ns of sharply trained troops coupled with an alert Navy force give evidence that Gen. Mac- Arthur is prepared for war in the | Far East if it becomes necessary, but the civilian conditions in Japan give proof of the American Gen- belief in peace. rts and sciences have progressed mor® rapidly than character build- | ing,” he said. “If we had achieved | the heights in character that we | have in the other fields, all would | know that war is no solution.” | | Sewing machines for rent at The White Sewing Machine Center. 52-t | ACHESON IN PUSH - | (By the Assoclated Press) ] President Truman rallied admm-‘ istration forces today for an all-| out defense against efforts in the | Senate to drive Secretary Acheson out of the State Department. Tlm was a followup to Mr. Truman declaration of last week that Ach( - son is running the State Depart- | ment “admirably.” Senator Taft (R-Ohio) joined | Senator Vandenberg (R-Mich) m‘ | calling for a non-partisan survey to\ determine what future American | { help may be needed by the Western Democracies to sustain them against | Communism.
