Not only did Gen. Floyd Parks, the Army Press Relations officer at the Pentagon rush into print with a| statement claiming the AP had misquoted MacArthur. But MacAr- thur personally cabled a de) Ray Henle for use of his five-star final radio program. “At no time have I ever at- tempted to predict the course of termination of this or any other military campaign, MacArthur cabled on Nov. 28—just after our disastrous North Korean retreat had begun. ~aTAeAY Last week, however, it was dis- closed that MacArthur officially in-| formed the President that he ex- pected to bring American home by Christmas. In other words the AP had not misquoted Mac-| Arthur after all. 2. U. S. Troops on Chinese Bor- der — On Nov. ported that “The State Department had warned that if we approached the Yalu River area, the Clunese would react in about the same way as the people of Los Angeles if a| Mexican Army should approach Boulder Dam which supplies much of their water. Therefore the State | Department long ago urged that | U. N. troops stop this side of the Manchurian border. The joint chiefs of staff hearuly concurred in this. “However, when MacArthur reached the neutrality belt,” this columu reported on Nov. 8, “He vired Washington for permission end South Korean trocps be- to the Manchurian border. He so1d they were to go Onmopping-up, missions and as military police to maintain order. “However, MacArthur’s intelli- scnce was faulty and the South Ko- rean troops found themselves ba Iy outnumbered. When they got into trouble, MacArthur wired Washington for permission to send | u. troops to rescue them. While the joint chiefs of staff didn't like this, they found it difficult to over- Galley 2 Wash Merygoround HH rule the commander in the field.” This story was denied from Tok- yo at the time. Again only a few days ago, MacArthur stated that at no time did he receive any warn- ing that Chinese troops might in- tervene. When grilled by ever, MacArthur confirme: formation carried in the column. He admitted that joint chiefs recommended halting U. N. troops on a defensible ridge Senators, how- d the in- Nov. south of the Manchurian border, | South Korean | that they wanted troops only to go into North Korea, he explained, “but that tactical conditions were such that South Koreans were not able to do the job.” 3. Arms to Japan dispute has been over of using extra arms South Koreans or using them defend Japan. On March 31, 1951, MacArthur was asked by Freeman magazine why he had refused more arms to the South Koreans. Here is his reply, dated April 5: “The issue is one determined by the Republic of Korea and the United States government and in- volves basic political dgcisions be- yond by authority.” However, MacArthur’s cable to the joint chiefs, dated Jan. 6, 1851, does not jibe with this. Taking L Another hot the gquestion for arming troops | 8, this column ge- | gl the | 0| than exactly the opposite position, he recommended: “That the over-all interests of the United States will be beiter served by making these | weapons available to increase the security of Japan rather than arm- ing additional Republic of Korea forces.” He was refer to additional arms which Washington was mak- ing available fop the South Kor- eans if MacArthur agreed. Signif- jcantly he did not propose that these extra arms be used for Chi- | ang Kai-Shek's troops though he has told members of Congress that he repeatedly urged such a step. 4. Wake Island Transcript Following the New York Times pub- lication of the Wake Island Con- ference story, MacArthur issued | statement casting doubt on its au- | thenticity and, stating that no tran-, w(npl w made of the Wake Is- |land Conference. | Since then General Bradley has ated that five copies of the tran- | script were sent to MacArthur in Tokyo, and MacArthur, under cross camination by Senators, has also mitted that the transcript is ac- curate. Anyone comparing the of- ficial transcript with the New York Times story, which MacArthur be- littled, can see that it, also, is ac- | curate. 5. No directives violated—tes! ing before the Senate, M.lLAllh\Il | stated that in his long career as a soldier he had never violated any order from a superior. How- everon Dec. 6, his superiors, the joint chiefs of staff, gave him a | directive categorically ordering him | to make no speech, press release| or public statement concerning foreign policy without clearing it first. with the State Department; and no statement, speech, or press release on military policy without clearing it first with the Defense Lepartment. s Democrpey in Germany U. S. High Commissioner Jack | McCloy, one of the busiest men in | Europe, frequently takes time to | visit town meetings in various parts of ‘Germany. He considers this one of the best ways to get the German people working at Democracy; also | it gives him a chance to find out | what people are thinking and to | answer their gripes. | At one such meeting, an old Ger- | man got'up and delivered a tirade | on the high cost of living. “When I was a boy,” he said, “It cost my grandfather 20 pfen- anosdiaedu swnn BGKQ MFW H nigs to buy a whip. Later I buy | whip I have to pay 10 marks, and then the whip is no good.” When the old German, who w inclined to blame all this on the U. S. Army, sat down, the U. S. | High Commander = got up and, speaking in German, said some- thing like this: “When I was a boy father didn't have to pay any in- come taxes whatsover. Later my father had to pay about one-tenth of his income in taxes. Now I have to pay 50 per cent of my income to the government.” | McCloy went on to tell how | American pec were paying more their share of the world's | burdens. He went into this in some detail, and when he had finished, it was obvious that he had won some new friends for the U. a my grand- the le EASTERN STAR Friendship Night: honoring mem- bers of Nugget Chapter and Past Officers of Juneau Chap.
