Ground Troop Aid

llieves that we should conf1ne tn
bulk or all of our ground force
to the continental United State
and that we should provide othe,
nations with nothing but sea ane
air support in. the battle agains

I gather from your statements
that you do not embrace thai

Gen. MacArthur-I believe thai

in the use of the armed forces oI

They are an integrated team.
At one place you may need the
preponderance of one element OF
the other, but the force that ws
apply should be based upon the
complete integration of the
potential of those three forces
1t is impossible to make such 6
simplification in my opinion.

jackets that would place a limita
ton on the number of grounc
troops that could be supplied?
Shuns Political Debate.
Gen. MacArthur-Senator,
stand upon my answers. I don't
want to be drawn into the politi-
cal discussions that are prevalent
upon that point. AS I understand
from the press, that is a very
heated, mooted thing that is being
discussed in the chambers of Con-
gress: but my own belief is that
the elasticity that is necessary is
not to be measured by academic
or straitjacket formulas at all. :.
I believe, on questions of the
utilization of the military power
of the country, within the mis-
sions which have been established
by the Government, that the Con-
gress would do well to pay the
closest attention to the profes-
sional advice that is rendered by
those services.
If, in any condition, they should
disagree with it. why. that is
a matter that they should go into
carefully.
I believe that the. professional
subjects should be largely in
fluenced by the advice of the
professional heads of the serv-
AS I see it, the question of the
disposition of our forces, the
question of the utilization of oul
armed forces, that is what you
have senior professional men tt
advise you.
Now. their advise is not icono-
elastic. 1t may not always bs
correct and. in the wisdom of the
Congress, you may want to &c
over it.
1t is quite true that you are
the last word. You represent the
authority of the voice of the
people; but, in general, I shoulc
say that the advise of the pro-
fessional experts should be weighed
carefully indeed, and without
unless there are specific reasons
to the contrary. that can be eluci-
dated, with reason-that their ad.
vice should be accepted.
Senator johnson - General, as
supreme commander in the Pacific
were you kept informed, through
diplomatic channels or intel.
ligence reports, of the interna,
political situation in, Western
Germany, Austria, Yugoslavia anc
other iron curtain countries?
Gen. MacArthur-In no particu.
lar detail.
I didn't have any responsible
ties or connection with those
theaters. They are not adjacent
to mine; and. of course, only the
general information that flows
through intelligence channels was
available.

forces you think would be desirable
In carrying out the specific pro-
gram that you have recommend
ed for the Far Fist.
In other words, know what
your problem was in the early
days of World War II; you had
to attempt to hold almost bare
handed. I know what your prob
lem has been throughout the
Korean campaign. am sure that
you asked for men that weren't
supplied. Now, you presented this
program.
Our embracing of that program
will be a hollow one unless we
provide the men and materiel
to back it up and carry it through
and reach ultimate victory.
We touched on that briefly in
our discussions the other day. If
you feel disposed, I should like
to have you elaborate on the per-
haps inconsequential number that
would be necessary to increase,
or perhaps the larger number that
would be required.
Gen. MacArthur-It would bel

figures in advance what you have
to have to defeat an enemy. I'll
Is not a unilateral proposition.
Too Difficult to Predict. !
It depends upon the RELATIVELY
Of the two forces engaged. So, it
would be quite ridiculous at any
stage of the campaign to try to
predict exactly the norm of force
that you would need to conclude
the campaign.
I will say, in answer to your
basic question, that I am sure the
overall strength which is being
provided now or debated now,
would we'll encompass, without
prejudice to any other operations
or demands that may be made
upon it, the conclusion of what I
had in mind in the Far East.
It would only take a relatively
small fraction of that force to
carry on the campaign that Il
would have in mind . The in
creaSes that would be necessary
in the Far East would not be
great as far as ground troops are
concerned.
The greatest thing that would
be necessary is to release the
power that we now possess so that
it can be utilized.
1t is quite possible that when
we do that there should be added /
increments of both the Air and
the Navy.
I believe those increments would
be readily available without preju-
dice to any other area or opera
tion that is in contemplation.
In that respect. too, Senator, it
must be borne in mind that the
general objective, as understand
1t, of our preparedness program
envisions its accomplishment in
about two years time or some
thing of that Sol8. /
During that time, those forces
can be used in Korea without
prejudice to their ultimate use
some place else, merely as a basis
of training or something of the
sort; they would be quite available
if the projected program is only
going to reach its completion and
its fruition at some future date of
two years or 18 months, whatever
it may be.
So, I can't see that there is
the slightest prejudice involved to-
the ultimate overall global pro-
gram which is before the Congress
now. because of any demands that
might be made in the Far East
to carry out the program that
the Joint Chiefs apparently Wis
ualized and hoped for on Janu-

Court Weighs Issue
OF 2O9b Rent Boost
3O-Day Notice

Municipal Court Judge Almond
w. Scott has under advisement
the question of whether a tenant
must pay the 90 per cent rent
increase, recently granted here,
without having received formal
notice 80 days IN advance.
Judge Scott took the question
under advisement late yesterday,
after hearing arguments in two
cases involving the issue. He COM
mented that the question "is of
so much Importance to thousands
Iof tenants in the District that
he would write an opinion. Mean
while. he invited counsel to SUBJ
init briefs for his consideration.
The question was brought up
in suits brought by Robert A..
Humphries, a rental agent, of 808
North Capitol street, to oust two
tenants from a building at 1865
Kennedy street NV. for alleged
non payment of rent.
According to the tenants at
torney, Herman Miller, they Of
fered to pay the rent at the old
scale, but not with the 20 per
cent increase.
The tenants are Joseph Stoner
and j. w. Leister, who, Attorney
Miller said, received a notice on
July 80 that the rent increases
were to become effective for
August. For Mr.. Stoner, the new
rent amounts to 1859, and for
Mr.. Lester, $81.78.
Mr.. Stoner's rent was increased
from a base of $62.50 and Mr..
Leister's from a base of $67.5
according to Attorney Miller.
Mr.. Miller contends that, al
though the new rent control act
authorized the increases, under
the District Code, a formal 30-day
notice of an increase must be
given. He estimated the issue in
volved could run into millions of
dollars in rent payments by the
many thousands of tenants here.
