 ssaNevefsfeless the giamorous Mac- Arthur, plus the crowds he has drawn, the appeal he seems to have, the manner in which he has made President Truman take back seat, has made COP planners think twice.

 Some are wondering also what the Macarthur boom will do to Eisenhower. If the COP nominates a military man for President, then the Democrats are certain to off, set him with a military man ot their own adoption Eisenhower.

 There was no talk of politics.
 There was only his serious reteration of the four points thought should be taken to win the present conflict: The ntensifcaton of economic blockade against China; the imposition of naval blockade
