Results of Korean Compoiqn
Held Better Than They Look

reaction, of course, is of pre-
eminent Importance.
In Japan, we have lost no pres
tige. If anything, the United
States has gained stature through
this ordeal.
Definite Decision Unlikely.
Japanese military men, for ex-
ample, are we'll aware of the diff
flculty of fighting campaign in
Korea. In more than four dec
AIDES Of occupation, the japanese
were never able to control all of
Korea. They are also we'll aware
Of the impossibility of obtaining
a definite military decision over
China. Japan. with her millions,
fought for eight years-from July
1887 to August 1945-without
achieving final victory over
China.
AS for the average japanese, he
is fully alive to the danger pre-
sented by the Chinese. his ancient
enemies, creeping toward the mar
row straits of Tsushima that sep
arate Korea from Japan. His only
defense now is the U. N. army, and
particularly the Americans.
For that reason, perhaps, as
well as large degree of genuine
sympathy, the Japanese have sent
thousands of gift packages to the
GI's. They have visited them in
the hospitals and invited them to
their homes. A day seldom passes
without letters in the newspapers
asking how they can help. They
have offered money and even
blood.
A variation of this sentiment is
beginning to appear elsewhere in
the Orient. To~the new Eastern
nations, the spectre of Red China
on the march with it's inexhaust-
ible masses is a frightening sign in
the sky. The governments of In
dia. Indonesia and the Philippines
are acutely uneasy.
One Facet of Bigger Picture.
Korea, in short, is only one facet
Of bigger picture. And that
picture, despite the military re-
verse, is not as dark as it looks
at first glance.
Finally, there is one other ele-
ment of supreme Importance to
the United States and to the free
world-the American G..
The seven American divisions
in Korea have been trained and
tested in the hardest Of all schools,
actual combat. That is seven more
battle-experienced divisions than
we had when the Korean war be-
gan. These men will form the
nucleus and provide the in
structors and field officers to train
a bigger Army.
The CT in Korea Is the same
fighter today he was in World
War II. and maybe better. He has
the same courage and the same
ingenuity, he Is standing up well
against overwhelming odds.
He has been showed around. But
he is not beaten and he is not
discouraged.

Posthumous Honor
For Walker Asked
By Lyndon Johnson
BY the Associated Press

A move to promote the late
1t. Gen. Walton H. Walker to
the grade of full general has been
started by Senator Lyndon John
son, Democrat, of Texas.
Gen. Walker was commander
of the 9th Army in Korea when
he was killed last Saturday in a
jeep accident near Seoul. He had
been resident of Bolton, Tex.
Senator johnson, calling Gen
Walker a true Texan" said in a
statement yesterday that he is
introducing a resolution to Con-

on the other side of the Pacific
than on this side.
Out there. American morale is
good. In neither Korea nor Japan
is there any pessimism. no breast
beating, and certainly no despair.
The soldiers are simply angry.
They are angry clean through.
They had won their victory. And
then, in late November, it was
snatched away. not by better men
with better weapons or better
leadership, but simply with greater
numbers.
So they were thrown back.
Even today the only prospect
is for q slow. grinding retreat
down the length of Korea. Quite
possibly, the 9Th Army may be
driven off the peninsula entirely.
That depends on how many OF
their best divisions the Chinese
Reds are prepared to spend. The
cost Of such a campaign to the
Chinese would be enormous, but
political and military observers
generally believe that Peiping
will pay it.
Morale Is UnShaken.
Nevertheless, the morale of the
average CT is unshaken. He knows
that, given any semblance Of
equality in numbers, he would
beat the Chinese Reds as soundly
as he beat the Korean Reds. If
he has to fall back again-and
that seems inevitable - he will
carpet Korea with Chinese dead.
Gen. MacArthur's headquarters,
naturally, takes a longer and
wider view of the picture.
At the moment, the United Ma
tions cannot furnish the necessary
divisions to counter balance Chi
nese and Korean numbers. There
fore, it may be necessary to pull
out Of Korea entirely, although
there was no open discussion Of
this when I left the Orient.
But that will not be the end of
the struggle. 1t will simply enter
q new phase.
The full details of the planning
for that phase cannot be dis
closed now. It is obvious. how
ever. that they call for naval
blockade, intensified bombing.
and pressure from within Korea
through a Korean underground
resistance, and by well-supplied
patriot guerrilla bands.
The Koreans-North or South
want their independence. After
40 years of Japanese occupation,
they will not willingly accept a
Chinese master.
Word Dominion" Appearing.
They know. and so does Mac
Arthur's headquarters. that the
Chinese program is to make Ko-
rea a vassal state. The word
dominion" is already appearing
in Chinese statements about Ko-
rea. Peiping. flushed with last
years victories over the National
lists, has embarked in Tibet and
Korea on a plain, old fashioned.
18th century program of aggres-
sion-while trying for propa-
ganda purposes. to pin that label
of ''aggression" on the United
States
So the war will not end if the
q. N. army is forced to evacuate
Korea. The pressure will continue,
from sea and air, and eventually
from the land. Actually, that
type of pressure-rather than the
use of ground forces-was advo-
Gated, early in the war, by some
of the best-informed American
generals. 1t may become a neces-
sity.
Another point that has occu-
pied Gen. MacArthur's headquar-
ters has been the cumulative ef-
feet on other Oriental nations. Of

Benefit Checks
Total $3,75O,OOO

More than 100000 unemploy-
ment benefit checks totaling
$3,570,000 went out to Ohioans
last week, Bureau of Unemploy-
ment Compensation Administra-
tor Frank J. Collopy reported to-
day.
The bureau, which has been
"retooling" to meet the require
ments of the recently-amended
Ohio unemployment compensa-
ton law, has practically COM
pleted the necessary revisionS In
the complex claim processing
procedure. Amendments to the
law became effective in two diff
ferent groups: on Aug. % and on
Oct. 18 respectively.
The $3,570,000 paid out last
week was very close to being a
record high. The volume of
checks involved was made poss-
ible not only through procedural
revisions but also because the
bureau has been running three
shifts day in the department
responsible for handling those
checks.
Collopy pointed out that the
102 900 checks mailed out last
week (Week ending Dec. 12) was
considerably above the figure of
94,845 during the preceding
week. The $2,466,O0O paid out in
that preceding week was also
more than $1,OOO,OOO below last
weeks dollar total.
Collopy compared last weeks
check total to the fewer than 30
600 checks issued during the
same week of 1948. The benefit
amount paid out during the same
period last year was $623,000,
about one-sixth of the dollar
volume last week.
