The Washington Merry-Go-Round (Continued from Page One) report of Navy Chief Admiral For- rest Sherman and Army Chief General Joe Collins, following their return from Tokyo. At this conference, Averell Har- riman handed the President a copy of the MacArthur statement. Har- riman, who is part owner of News- week Magazine, had obtained a copy of the press release. Harriman Has Explained Harriman told ‘1Tuman that he had carefully explained American policy to MacArthur during his recent visit to Tokyo and that there was no reason for his misunder- standing it. Actually Harriman's trip was largely inspired by Mac- Arthur's urge to occupy Formosa with < American troops and his much-publigiz -kissing visit to Mo LERARE L Eehde 11 was felt that Harriman could dip- lomatically explain that the United States must work through the Uni- ted Nations in regard to Formosa and that if the United States got embroiled in any conflict with China the Korean war would then last indefinitely. For the Chinese Communists would have an excuse to pour troops into Korea. Truman read the MacArthur statement and hit the ceiling. ‘Without asking Secretary Acheson or any others present for their opinion, he directed Secretary of Defense Johnson to order Mac- Arthur to withdraw his statement, “I am charged by the constitu- tion with the sole responsibility for the conduct of our foreign policy,” he told those in the room. “There can only be one voice of authority in expressing that policy. We can't have two, or three or ten people acting as official spokesmen. This is a fundamental rule. *“In the case of Formosa, we can- not act unilaterally,” the President continued. “We must continue our efforts through the United Nations. “If we let the MacArthur message go unchallenged every diplomat throughout the world will believe— despite our denials—that MacA thur was really speaking for the White House. The diplomats will be convinced we're floating a trial balloon. No diplomat would ever imagine MacArthur would presume to make such a sialement without the direct autho: of the White House.” Cable to MacArthur The cable which Secretary John- son immediately dispatched to Mac- Arthur read pretty much as fol- lows: The President of the United States directs that you immediately recall your statement addressed o the Veterans of Foreign Wars con- taining your views regarding For- mosa. Your statement is not in accord with the established foreign policy of the United States as en- unciated by the President.” At this writing no reply has been received. Though Secretary Johnson agreed with MacArthur on For- mosa and once worked backstage to overrule the State Department on Formosa, other high military men in the Pentagon Building now take a different view. This holds true of many in both the Army and Navy. has MacArthur Once Banned Formosa In fact, Navy strategists .uc now recalling that during 1944 the wanted MacArthur to occupy Fol- mosa as a step toward bombing Japan and that MacArthur was vigorously opposed Plans for taking over Formosa were worked out in great detail by Admiral Nimitz in 1944 and ap- session; seventh session, ENTION |granted. money The American and the waiting until November to get in their politi So declares Sam Stavisky, in Collier's magazine. surveys W sign of the magazine has discontinued carrying continued stories.

On top of this, U. S. intelligence reported vitally important infor- mation to the Joint Chiefs of Staff last week—namely that Mao Tse- Tung and ex-Foreign Minister Mol- otov were at odds over Korea and Formosa. Molotov has been. urging Mao, according to this information, to intervene in Korea and also in- \.lqe Formosa, byt Mao has hes- itatell. These reports indicated that the rift between Russia and China was increasing, and that there might be some chance of patching up re- lations between China and the Uni- ted States. This information, of course, was not definite. No information out of China can be definite these days. But it seemed convincing enough so that top U. S. military men are most anxious not to cause any further rift with China now. Supporting this information is the fact that Mao had twice post- poned the date for a Chinese in- vasion of Formosa, and now has postponed it a third time to Sept. 15. If the Chinese Communists do send an armada of junks across the Straits of Formosa and if hun- dreds of them are sunk by Am- erican airplanes and naval vessels, the reaction in China will be such that a Chinese invasion of Korea is almost inevitable. Thus, the military men argue, we might be able to hold Formosa but be thrown out of Korea. |ALASKANS NAMED: AS BOARD MEMBERS | the Philippines, U\Llr\llkdi that U. S. now tlmps!
