Text Of General MacArthur's
Korea Statement IN. Y. Times,
March, rs, 1851.
Operations continue according to
schedule and plan. We have now
substantially cleared South Korea
of organized Communist forces. II
is becoming increasingly evident
that the heavy destruction alons
the enemy's lines Of supply, caused
by our round d-the-clock massive all
and naval bombardment, has left
his troops in the forward battle
area deficient in requirements tt
sustain his operations.
This weakness is being brilliantly
exploited by our ground forces. Tht
enemy's human wave tactics def
nitely failed him as our own force!
became seasoned to this form O.
warfare; his tactics of inflltratior
are but contributing to his piece
meal losses, and he is showing les
stamina than our own troops undel
rigors of climate, terrain and battle
OF even greater significance thai
our tactical success has been tn
clear revelation that this neV
enemy, Red China, of such ex
aggerated and vaunted militar,
power, lacks the industrial capacit,
to provide adequately many critica
items essential to the conduct o
modern war.
He lacks manufacturing bases ant
those raw materials needed to pro
duce, maintain and operate evel
moderate air and naval power, an,
he cannot provide the essentials TO
successful ground operations, sucl
as tanks, heavy artillery and othe
refinements science has introduce,
into the conduct Of military cam
paigns.
Formerly his great numerical pc
tential might well have filled thi
gap, but with the development G
existing methods of mass destruc
tion, numbers alone do not offse
vulnerability inherent in such def
ciencies. Control of the sea and ali

supplies, communications and trans
portation, are no less essential an
decisive now than in the past.
When this control exists as in ou
case and is coupled with the in
ferior1ty Of ground firepower, as /
the enemy's case. the resulting dis

! parity is such that it cannot be
overcome by bravery, however ia
natical, or the most gross indif-
ference to human loss.
Weaknesses Revealed.
/ These. military weaknesses have
been clearly and definitely revealed
since Red. China entered upon its
undeclared war in Korea. Even
under inhibitions which now re-
strict activity of the United Ma
tions forces and the correspond
ing military advantages which ac-
crue to Red China, it has been
shown its complete inability to ac-
compliSh by force of arms the con-
quest of Korea.
The enemy therefore must by now
be painfully aware that a decision
of the United Nations to depart
from its tolerant effort to contain
the war to the area Of Korea
through expansion of our military
operations to his coastal areas and
interior bases would doom Red
China to the risk of imminent mill
tary collapse.
These basic facts being estab-
lished, there should be no insu-
perable difficulty arriving at deci-
sions on the Korean problem if the
issues are resolved on their own
merits without being burdened by
extraneous matters not directly re-
lated to Korea, such as Formosa
and China's seat in the United
Nations.
The Korean nation and people
which have been so cruelty ravaged
must not be sacrificed. That is
the paramount concern. Apart from
the military area of the problem
where the issues are resolved in the
course Of combat, the fundamental
questions continue to be political
in nature and must find their an
swer in the diplomatic sphere.
Within the area of my authority
as military commander, however,
it should be needless to say stand
ready at any time to confer in the
field with the commander in chief
Of the enemy forces in an earnest
effort to find any military means
whereby the realization of the po-
litical objectives Of the United Ma
tions in Korea, to which no nation
may justly take exceptions, might
be accomplished without further
bloodshed.

u. n. Driving Ahead
AS Ridgway Assumes
Macarthur Command
BY The A.soeiat.d Press


TOKYO, April 1.-The United
Nations drive ground ahead to-
day as 1t. Gen. Matthew B. Ridg-
way took over command from
Gen. Macarthur.
At a late hour today many OF
the fighting men in the Korean
front lines did not know that
President Truman had fired Gen.
Macarthur.
Allied air and artillery barrages
wiped out the key Chinese base
of Chorwon on the Western front.
Chorwon is II miles north Of the
border. American. British and
Turkish troops scored new gains.
Troops Skirt Reservoir.
On the central front, American
troops drove along the southern
shores of Hwachon Reservoir to-
ward the big dam and power grid.
Censorship obscured their progress.
On the east coast, where South
Korean troops had thrust about
lis miles north of the border.
there were no reports of ground
action. Allied ships pounded. rail
lines and roads.
South Korea was virtually free
lof Communist troops. The last
major pocket of Reds was holding
out west Of the Imjin River on the
extreme western front.
Gen. Ridgway and Secretary of
Army Pace were reported touring
the front. Neither had any COM
ment on the command change.
Milburn Takes Command.
Headquarters sources said 1t.
Gen. Frank E. Milburn. 1st Corps
commander, probably would COM
mand the 18th Army until the ar
rival of 1t. Gen. James A. van
Fleet, who was named to succeed
Gen. Ridgway.
Gen. Milburn commanded the
Army temporarily after the death
last December of 1t. Gen. Walton
II. Walker.
Chorwon, western anchor of the
Red buildup area, was the head
quarters of three Chinese army
corps. Field dispatches said it was
completely destroyed. American
artillery opened up on it for the
first time three days ago.
Hwaehon. Z miles north of
Parallel 38, was the eastern base
of the Communist buildup area.
Intelligence reports placed nearly
|one-half million Communist COM
bat troops in the Chorwon-Hwa-
hon-Kumwha triangle.
Censorship Hides Details.
Military censorship obscured de-
tails Of the fighting in the Hwa-
chon sector. There were reports
the Reds were pulling back across
the huge reservoir in boats and
digging in on the north bank.
Wednesdays most substantial
gains were made in the West.
Turkish troops crossed the Han
tan River and pushed northward.
British infantrymen punched
ahead northeast of Yongong.
American troops forged across
the Imjin River south and south
west of Yonchon. which apparently
was abandoned by the Reds. 1t is

overall interests Of the U. s. will
be better served by making these
weapons available to increase the
security of Japan rather than arm
ing additional ROK forces.
In view of the probable restricted
size of the battle field in which we
may operate in the near future, and
the high priority of NPRJ require
mertS, the value of attempting to
organize, train and arm additional
ROK forces in the immediate fu-
ture appears questionable. 1t is
considered that the short-range re-
quirement can best be met by utiliz-
ing available manpower to replace
losses in existing ROK units rather
than creating new organizations.
The long-range requirement for or
desirability of arming additional
ROK pers appears to be dependent
primarily upon determination of
the future U. S. mil position with
respect to both the Korean cam
paign and the generally critical
situation in the Far East.

Dear Congressman Martin:
I am most grateful for your note
of the eighth forwarding me a copy
of your address of February IL. The
latter I have read with much in.
terest, and find that with the pass
age Of years you have certainly lost
none of your old time punch.
My views and recommendation
with respect to the situation created
by Red China's entry into wal
against us in Korea have been sub.
mitted to Washington In most COM
Iplete detail. Generally these view.
are well known and clearly under
stood, as they follow the conven
tional pattern of meeting force witt
maximum counter force as we hav,
never failed to do in the past. You
view with respect to the utilization
of the Chinese forces on Formos;
is in conflict with neither logic no
this tradition.
It seems strangely difficult TO
some to realize that here in Asia i
where the Communist conspirator
have elected to make their play TO
global conquest, and that we hav
Joined the issue thus raised on tn
battlefield; that here we fight Eu
ropes war with arms while the dip

words; that if we lose the war t

Whistling teapots, boiling apple
sauce. ceiling lamps and cold door
knobs will help ruin the exterior
paint of thousands of homes this
winter.
The house wife never sees the
moisture vapor that Is condensed
into water during cold months but
in the first warm days of springs
she sees its effect when blisters
appear on the outside walls, max
ing 1t necessary to repaint.
Modern methods of construction
principally designed to cut down
on fuel bills, have caused the up.
swing in paint damage. Today's
new homes. tightly constructed
and compact, have none of the es-
cape routes for moisture that are
found in houses of older construc-
ton.
The cracks around windows ano
under doors in older homes may
send the dwellers racing for sweat
ers and robes, but they are also
saving their owners many dollars
by permitting house moisture to
escape during winter months
rather than condense into water
seep into walls, penetrate insula-
ton and destroy the outer paint.
Pushes Paint Away.
High humidity and low tempera-
ture are the combination that
cause the damage. The humidity
within the home passes as vapor
through the plaster, then through
the space between the inner and
outer walls. When it reaches the
cold side of the wall it condensed
and with spring and the con-
sequent warming of the outside
walls it pushes away the outside
paint.
