Saturday.
At $50 am. every day General
Bradley, chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff, walks in with his
easel. sets it up before the Presi-
dents desk and in his delightful,
slightly schoolmasterish way, de-
scribes the military operations of
the previous "a hours. One of the
rare privileges of the Capital these
days is an invitation to hear that
briefing.
That particular morning the

Sherman, Chief of Naval Opera

a Korean look-see. Secretaries
Acheson and johnson had also
been invited.
The President. poker-faced, let
the military discussions proceed
on schedule. Then he said in a
rather dry voice. II have just
come across something rather in

Your inspiring message of the

dent read, land trust you will

Secretary johnson snapped to
attention. The VFW national COM
mander recently called for his re-
moval. The rather relaxed semi
circle around the Presidents desk
pricked up its ears.
The President waded on un-
smilingly through the fiorid Mac
Arthur phrases so oddly unsuiteo

Heads Of ; Big Unions
Won 'tMake Voluntary
Pledges Not TO Strike

Leaders of the Nations thre
biggest labor unions made 1
clear today they will not volun
teer an immediate no-strik,
pledge.
President William Green of tn,
American Federation of Labol
came closest to giving such /;
promise. He said that in Worle
War II members of his organiZa'
ton gave President Roosevelt {
no-strike pledge and are ready tt
do so again-if President Truman
requests it. But. he added, tn,
President has not yet made such
q request.

committing-we do our own no.
striking"
CIO President Philip Murray
made it clear his big unions, par
ticularly the steel workers, who
open contract negotiations in No.
vember, would go slow-at least
for the time being-in agreeing
to any no-strike pledge.
Objects to "Undercutting."
After meeting here with the
CIO executive board yesterday,
Mr.. Murray told reporters:
The CIO has not discussed a
'no-strike' pledge. We have lot
of contracts outstanding today all
over the country and we do not
want to do anything to undercut
the international unions involved
in the bargaining"
He added that he did not think
the people were ready for all-out
controls.
One contract coming up in
wolves the steel workers union,
also headed by Mr.. Murray. He
said it was safe to assume pay
: rise would be asked when nego-
tiations begin, probably in No
Sember.
Needles AFL President.
Earlier, Mr.. Lewis had needed
the AFL president for allegedly
keeping the Mine Workers out OF
unity talks with the CIO and oil
q national labor committee con-
sidering the manpower situation
He wound up the memo to Mr..
Green with this observation:
"The press chronicles you as
plodding about the country seek
ing some one to whom you can
give a 'no-strike' pledge. am
sure you will pardon me when I
suggest that the Mine Workers
are not yet ready for you to sell
them down the river. Restrict
your pledges to your own outfit.
.. We do our own 'no-striking. "
Asked to comment, Mr.. Murray
said:
mo, no. I don't want to COM
ment on that. I'd be happy to
know. however, what Bill Green
has to say"
Mr.. Green had already COM
mented.

President settled that. He said
to put it in writing.
Secretary johnson returned to
the Pentagon and sent instruc-
tions beginning "The President Of
the United States directs. etc." He
signed his own name.
Sunday morning, Secretary
johnson brought message signed
Macarthur to Blair House. The
general cabled that he did not
believe. following his converse
tions with recent visitors. that his
VFW statement on Formosa was
contrary to American policy. but
that If the White House and
Washington officials felt that it
was, he would reluctantly send a
message to the VFW directing
them to withdraw it from cir
culation.
The question then arose about
how to release the story. Also
A4Cl 1C0 WC1C CO1uk41S 1As
Press Secretary Ross. o news
paper veteran, of course realized
that the Macarthur views, sub
stantively at least. would leak out.
But he did not know how. nor
did he know how very extensively
the story had been planted.
Publisher David Lawrence, who
is on MacArthur's list, had got
permission from the Veterans Of
Foreign Wars to use the story in
his weekly magazine which was
already in the mails for Monday
distribution. A public relations
man named Julius Klein, q for
mer aide Of Herbert Hoover who
advertises that he is the mill
tary adviser to the Republican
Policy Committee, had also got
the advance from Gen. Mac
Arthur.
Mr.. Klein promptly dispatched
it to $50 subscribers to a Midwest |
newsletter that he publishes. He
however. to inform an
other old pal, Secretary johnson.
to whom he recently proposed
over the luncheon table that Mr.. |
Klein was an ideal choice to rep
resent the Defense Department in
its wartime relations with the
moving picture industry.
According to the Pentagon
grapevine. Deputy Secretary Early
at this point reminded Mr.. john
son that defense relations with
Eric Johnston Of the moving pic
ture producers had heretofore
been excellent. MIR. Early lis also
reported to have said il Mr.. Klein
entered the department, Mr.. Early
had fine job with the Pullman
company.
Unaware of all this and figur-
ing they had nothing to discuss
until Gen. MacArthur's views creptI
into print, Mr.. Ross held his fire.
He did not want the administra-
ton to appear to be picking a
fight nor did he wish to force the
release.
1t remains q mystery why so
many ordinarily alert news chan
nels did not sooner call the story
to White House attention. Any
way. by Monday morning the
story broke wide open: MIR. Ross
then candidly explained that the
withdrawal was at the Presidents
direction and why.
For q brief time Sunday an
alternative after-thought was
bruited about the White House.
This was that the statement
should be allowed and repudiated
by the President after publica-
ton.
1t was discarded because it was
feared that diplomats. accustomed
to read all sorts of inferences
into events and long Injured to
trial balloons, would then sus-
pect that the Macarthur state
ment was officially inspired. 1t is
possibly even now hard for them
to believe that an experienced
soldier Of the generals exalted
position did not have a green light
from Washington.

Maria Kopulos Recital.
The gifted young pianist, Maria
Kopulos. was heard again in re-
cital yesterday afternoon in the
Phillips Gallery. A large audi
ence gathered to welcome her in
q program that showed her gain in
artistry to the fullest. Her choice
fell on works not too often given
serious concert consideration such
as Mozart's Fantasia in D Minor"
and Brahms Sonata No. /" and
her presentation of them was
graced by a highly developed
musical attitude.
Miss Kopulos has a notable and
brilliant technique with which she
strives to convey a wealth of eff
feet. Details were well defined
with a range of dynamics
astutely employed. On the other
hand, she has overburdened her
self with these details to the ex-
clusion of a cultivation of tone. AS
yet, she is not capable of making
the piano sing or Of injecting
warmth and variety Of coloring in
her tone to be applied in different
degrees to different styles.
She came closest to the art
Of tonal tinting in Debussy's la
Soiree dams Grenade" and to q
thoughtful. sympathetic delinea-
ton in the Mozart Fantasia"
The general outline of the Brahms
Sonata" was well conceived but
here. her tendency to percussive-
ness was often released. While
careful attention to effects was
evident throughout, she has not
yet reached the point where she
can embellish them with the
personal emotion that adds grace
to the delivery. She Is too skilled
and sincere a pianist not to give
this next step in her development
earnest consideration.

in the same sympathetic vein as
formerly. The real substance OF
the work is given the orchestra

are assigned to different sections

and his playing was based always
on expressive tone. Piston's forma.
yet mastery command Of hi;
idiom gave satisfying contours to
the music.
To depict the romantic and
emotional currents of Shake
speare's drama in modern terms
lis not easy. Diamond divides his
suite into Overture" Balcony
Scene" Romeo and Friar Law
renee" "Juliet and Her Nurse
and "The Death Of Romeo and
Juliet" The most eloquent writ
ing is in the three middle Sec
tions where he has been particu-
larly happy in portraying the
scenes, the characters and the at
mosphere. There are many de-
lightful touches introduced with
skill and with great suavity OF
effect. The angular style of the
Overture" hardly visualizes the
passionate feeling Of the feud be-
tween the families or the youthful
charm of the love story.
The death scene, although
overly drawn-out, is conceived
with great imagination and with
unusually dramatic and affecting
ending. Throughout, there is q
