U. 5. Supplies 60% Of U. n.
Korea Forces, Bender Says
BY the Associated Press

Representative Bender, Repub-

that putting the ~. N. label" on
Allied military forces f1ghtign in
Korea is a "disgraceful farce" be-
cause this country has contributed
COS per cent of the total forces,
Mr.. Bender said. at a constitu-
ent's request. he checked the per-
centages of forces supplied by all
nations to the Korean campaign
The information is official and
has been cleared by this countrys
security board, he added.
These figures "are shocking in
their revelation that our Govern
ment has furnished 1924 per cent
of all air forces engaged in Korea
1881 per cent of the naval forces
and SO per cent Of all the ground
forces outside Of those furnished
by the South Korean government
ITSELF" Bender said.
He added that the Republic Of
Korea has contributed. 43.16 pei
cent of the ground forces, 8.62 pei
cent Of navy and 0,51 Of the all
forces.
His figures show 50.31 per cent
of the ground forces are from the

Russell Hopes for Calm |nquiry
Hearings Open Next Monday With Macarthur at Bot'
Duff Scores Tricky Lonauoae4 Wants Whole Story

Chairman Richard Russell of
the Senate Armed Services
Committee, who will run the
inquiry into Gen. MacArthur's
dismissal as Far East comman-
der, will start hearings next
Monday with the general at bat
and Defense Secretary Mar
shall on deck.
Senator Russell would be
greatly obliged meanwhile II
all hands would subdue their
emotions, lock up their self
serving. secret papers and treat
the American people like ra-
tional human beings capable Of
making a decision on the merits.
Admitting that's a lot to ex-
pect Of politicians, the Armed
Services chairman is sincerely
distressed by the emotional
climate now being created
around the vital inquiry he is
to conduct.
The Senator from Georgia got
some help from q new Senator
who appears to be greatly gifted
IN the realm Of plain American
speech. Senator James Duff, q
Pennsylvania Republican, inn
partially swatted Gen. MacAr-
thur for tricky language in
claiming military support and
President Truman for leaking
an ex-parte version Of the Wake
Island conference. Then he
told them both to "come clean"
with the whole story.

cepts any political advice from

sion Of these two carriers was
to give some food for thought
to the Chinese high command.
Its preparations for an early
offensive were well known. It
was hoped that the arrival of
the large American carriers
might be construed by the Red
general staff as preliminary to
an offensive by the Nationalists
against the mainland. This
might have drawn away some of
the ground forces and aviation
earmarked for the Korean Of
fensiye s--.. 49,.
The carriers left their stations
April 10. The demonstration
assumed a less spectacular char
acter. however. Only one car
rier participated and its pres
ence was explained as q routine
inspection visit to Formosa by
Vice Admiral Harold M. Mar
tin. who had just taken over
command Of the 7th Fleet.
It is believed that the bulk of
our naval forces and especially
the carriers are needed in Ko-
rean waters. both as support for
the ground forces and as pos
sible defense against the danger
OF volunteer" submarines en-
tering into action. -
Despite the optimistic utter
ances from Britain's new foreign
secretary, Herbert Morrison, the
chances of a negotiated and
honorable" cessation of hos
tilities in Korea are non-exist-
ent. unless this new major Of
fensive by the Chinese is broken
up.
The Korean and Red Chinese
puppets again have boasted that
they vii, throw the "aggressors''
into the sea. They provide the
voice for Moscow, which engi-
neered the war in Korea and

masses Of Chinese Communist
forces with weapons.

Russian Moves in Asia Feared
y. 5 Defense Chiefs Wonder If KremIin Will Order
WorPIones and Submarines to Aid Chinese Reds
Constantine Brown:

The long expected Chinese
offensive has started. AS was
inevitable, our troops are being
pushed back. but it is too early
to appraise the impact of the
enemy on United Nations troops.
1t. Gen. James A. Van Fleet,
new commander of the 9th
Army. appears confident that his
troops will hold and eventually
throw back the enemy. No COM
mander can do otherwise.
The main worry IN Washing
ton is whether the Russians will
send to the aid Of their puppets
the air force which has been
reported massing on Manchu-
rian airf1elds in the past six
weeks. The existence Of that air
force is know to the American
high command.
It's strength is still in doubt.
Some reports mention about
1900 planes. Others estimate
1t at twice or three times that
number. The reports are based
principally on hearsay, since
Allied planes are forbidden to
undertake even sneak" recon-
naisSance missions over the
Yalu River, where Red supplies
and reserve forces are concen-
trated.
The question whether or not
volunteer" submarines will
come into action to interfere
with the gunnery Of our naval
ships-which in the past have
played an important role in our
land operations-also causes
some concern in Pentagon cir
cleS.
Before the dismissal of Gen.
Macarthur it was decided to
send two large American car
riers to Formosa Strait to dem
onstrate on the China coast.
The purpose Of that operation
was to show the Chinese what
we could do If we really got
annoyed.
Besides this effect on the
morale Of the Chinese. the mis-

means no more than that to
some of his loudest defenders.)
Fine for that purpose, the, ma
tional confusion is bad for many
others.
It Is bad for the winning of
a war. Bad for forestalling a
much greater war. Bad for the
task Of uniting and keeping
united the free nations Of the
earth. Bad for the mainte-
nance Of the leadership we have
taken among the free nations.
Bad though they may know
1t to be, however, there are
those who will continue to pro-
mote this confusion as long as
they are able to do so. The
Senate committee hearings offer
the best prospect for clearing
the air and enabling the country
to get its feet back on the
ground. Even so it is not a
perfect prospect. It will depend
on how the committee handles
Gen. Macarthur and the other
witnesses and how Gen. Mac
Arthur handles himself.
And 1t will depend on how the
COMMITTEES proceedings are re-
ported. This doesn't annlv 70

to the reports Of intelligence
officers in the civil branch of our
Government here who, every
day, analyze worldwide reports.
Gen. Macarthur did not have
a staff Of intelligence agents
stationed in Peiping. He might
know what the enemy was
doing If he had agents behind
the enemy lines but air recon-
naissance, which was the only
certain wsy to observe what was
going on in Manchuria. was
denied to the general.
On the subject Of whether
or not Russia will intervene in
the Korean War more actively
than she has already and
whether she will feel obliged to
come to the aid Of Communist
China because Of a mutual-as-
Stance pact, it is pointed out
that policy-makers here have
no authoritative information on
Russian intentions either. Dur
ing the greater part of World
War II. Russia and Japan had
an offensive and defensive alli-
ance which logically should
have brought Russia into con-
flict with the United States
when Japan attacked Pearl
Harbor and a state Of war en-
sued. But Russia not only ig-
nored that mutual-assistance
pact - she subsequently de-
nounced it and joined the
United States against Japan.
Nobody in our State Depart
ment or in our military serv-
ice really knows Russia's in
tentions. The only good analy-
sis that has been borne out by
events was that made by Gen.
Clay when he insisted that, If
we stood our. grounds at the
time Of the Berlin blockade,
Russia would not start a war.
It is the same kind Of analysis
as Gen. Macarthur is making
today diagnosis Of military
rather than political factors.

pared in advance by Secretary
OF State Acheson for a large
network Of television stations on
September 10 last. and which
has since been published as an
ofi1cial document by the State
Department. It is as follows:
"Mr. Bancroft (of CBS) /:
Well. Mr.. Secretary, what are
the chances, do you think, Of
Communist China getting her
self involved in support Of the
Korean Communists?
Secretary Acheson: I should
think it would be sheer mad
ness on the part Of the Chinese
Communists to do that. and !
see no advantage to them In
doing it. :,
Nov, I give the people in
Peiping credit for being intelli-
gent enough to see what is hap
pening to them. Why they
should want to further their
own dismemberment and de-
struction' by getting at cross
purposes with all the free ma
tions Of the world who are in
herently their friends and have
always been friends of the
Chinese as against this imper-
ialism coming down from the
Soviet Union I cannot see. And
since there Is nothing in it for
them, T. don't see why they
should yield to what is un-
doubtedly pressures from the
Communist movement to get
into this Korean row."
The foregoing was substanti-
ally the kind Of information
which continued to be sent to
Gen. Macarthur during the lat
ter part OF September and
October Of last year and he
relied on It because the State
Department not only has access
through Great Britain to the
sources Of information Of the
Indian and Arab governments
and the other diplomats In

Asia Po|icyMoy Shift Quickly
Fur Eastern Command Runnored Having Authority
To Strike at China Bases With Red Air Offensive
Dovid Lowrence:

The Red air offensive may
have q decisive effect on Ameri-
can policy in the Far East.
II the Communists, whether
from bases in China or Russia,
begin to Illustrate our air de-
tense in Korea, authority to
bomb the Communist bases will
be given. There are some ru-
mors that the Far Eastern COM
mand may already have such
contingent instructions.
Fundamentally. the main fact,
rs between those who say that
bombarding the Manchurian air
fields will bring on a general
war and those who say it will
not bring such results, is that
nobody really knows the Com
munist intentions or policy.
Much has been made by adj
ministration spokesmen Of the
point that Gen. Macarthur at
Wake Island in October last year,
in the course Of a discussion Of
many other things, hazarded
the guess that the Chinese Com
munists would not intervene In
Korea. Actually Gen. Mac
Arthur had no other informa-
ton except that furnished him
by the Central Intelligence
Agency Of our Government,
which presumably has inform
ants throughout the world, and
that which came to him from
the State Department.
In line with the belief that
the State Department is sup
posed to be most expert on the
subject Of political informa-
tion, Gen. Macarthur relied on
the data furnished him by, this
and other agencies Of the Gov
ernment. It will be recalled that,
just four or five weeks before
the Wake Island conference, not
only Gen. Macarthur but the
American people as q whole
were formally told that Com
munist China would not inter-
vene in the Korean war. Here is
an excerpt from O script pre-
