NEW YORK. July 1s.-Gen
Macarthur feels Americas moral
tone today is so far below what
he described to the japanese peo-
pie that he may owe them an
apology.
Gen. Macarthur expressed this
disappointment to members of the
bipartisan Legislative committee
headed by State Senator Philip
Bowker when 1t was here to in

He told the committee members
that. since his return to the
United States, he has felt
ashamed - even self conscious
that the high moral aspirations
and well-being of all phases of
life in America have not kept pace

he chatted with them high up in
the old Atlantic Defense Com

Gen. Macarthur spoke to the
committee for about an. hour and
a half. His staff said this was
the longest time he had given
any committee of visitors since
the headquarters was opened.
Wasn't Prepared for Shocks.
Fifteen years outside the coun-
try, the general said, did not pre-
pare man for the shocks and
surprises he finds on his return.
