Senator Lodge, Republican, OF
Massachusetts, has called for a
more rapid build-up of this coun-
try'S military strength, particu-
larly in air power, as means OF
exerting pressure on Soviet Rus
sia to end the Korean war.
"The application of pressure to
the Kremlin need not bring war, y
Senator Lodge declared. 1.-The
Kremlin makes war only on those
who are weak and unready. The
quickest way to prevent World
War III from occurring is to end
the so-called limited war which
is now being fought. The longer
it lasts, the greater the chances
of its spreading"
In q statement Of his individual
views on the Macarthur contro-
versy. Senator Lodge also declared
that Americans at home are 'snot
keeping faith with the soldiers in
Korea" and added:
while they sacrifice their all
over there, we muddle along in
an atmosphere Of politics and
business as usual over here"
On Investigative Unit
Senator Lodge served on the
joint Senate Committee-Armec
Services and Foreign Relations
that investigated the dismissal oi
Gen. Macarthur as Pacific COM
mander and this country's Fai
Eastern policies.
He did not join with eight o1
his fellow Republicans on the
joint committee in a report OF
their views last Monday, demand

Korea as the price of peace in that
country. Nor did he subscribe ir
detail with their criticism of the
Administrators Far Eastern
policies or in the charge that there
had been infiltration of Commun-
lists in the Government and that
|appeasement policies had beer
followed.
Senator Lodge agreed with the
criticism of the way Gen. Mac.
Arthur was dismissed from hi!
command and said that, if tn,
Administration had used imagina'
ton, vision and courage at tn,
time of the Korean aggression, tn,
conflict between President Tru

Republican added, Gen. Mac
