Joint Chiefs. Of Staff
Leave Japan 10 See
0kinawa Defenses
Five Days Of Talks With
Macarthur Expected to
Stiffen Stand in Orient
By the Assoeioted Pres,

TOKYO, Feb. 6.-The United
States Joint Chiefs f Staff today
looked over Okinawa, key air base
in the American defense line
facing Communist-troubled Asia.
In Japan, the four top military
commanders left this genera, i'm
preston after FIVE days of secret
strategy conferences with Gen.
Macarthur and his experts:
The United States may take a
tougher stand against the spread
OF Communism in the Orient and
back it up with more attention to
American military needs in this
part of the world.
Only $50 Miles From Formosa.
Gen. Omar Bradley, chairman
of the Joint Chiefs; Army Gen. j.
Lawton Collins, Air Force Gen.
Hoyt S. Vandenberg and Admiral
Forrest P. Sherman. chief of naval
operations, left Japan this morn
ing. Two hours after taking off
from Itazuke Airfield on Kyushu
they landed at battle-famed Oki-
nawa.
Three news correspondents who
had hoped to accompany the
chiefs of staff were refused per-
mission by 1t. Gen. George
Stratemeyer, Far East Air Force
commander, to fly to Kyushu. He
gave no explanation.
Here are some of the things
local commanders probably will
stress int alks to the Joint Chiefs:
/. Communist control of For
mosa-only $50 miles to the south
west-would be serious menace
to Okinawa and the American
defense line that runs down the
Aleutians through Japan to the
Philippines.
2. The United States should re-
tain control indefinitely of Oki-
nawa--a conviction also held by
Gen. MacArthur's experts in
Tokyo.
8. Construction of typhoon n-re-
sistant barracks, homes, hai,gars
and warehouses should be con-
tinued without interruption al
though the project may cost
$500, 900 900.
More Equipment Likely.
4. ASSIGNMENT of more air and
ground force equipment to Oki-
nawa and possibly more man
power.
S. Fastening of the restoration
of Okinawa's economy as bui-
wark against Red infiltration.
There was no official inkling of
what the joint chiefs might re-
port to President Truman and
national defense planners on
their return to Washington via
Guam. Kwajalein and Hawaii.
However, it was evident that
high officers of Gen. Macarthur S
command urged a bolder Ameri-
can attitude to save a situation
they regard as critical.
Before leaving for Manila, w.
Walton Butterworth, Assistant
United States Secretary of State
for Far Eastern Affairs, said Gen.
Macarthur "sees eye to eye with
American officials concerned with
japan"
