Gen. Boiling also conferred. with
Gen. MacArthur,s intelligence
chief, Maj. Gen. Charles A. Will
loughby. and his top aides.
Link to Conferences Seen.
The timing of Gen. McClure's
removal seemed to fit in with
the Tokyo conferences
However, attempts to obtain an
explanation of the action were
fruitless. Headquarters sources
said it was, the responsibility of
1t. Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway's
9th Army in Korea and the 9th
Army, would have to explain the
circumstances.
Gen. Mcclure was replaced by
Maj. Gen. Clark L. Ruffner. for
rner chief of staff of the United
States 10th Corps.
An 9Th Army spokesman said
Brig. Gen. Royal M. Haynes,
deputy commander, will lead the
I'd Division until Gen. Ruffner
arrives to take command.
Gen. Mcclure is an expert on
China and formerly was deputy
chief of staff to Chang Kai-shek.
When division officers heard
that a new commander had been
named they cut off boards that
had gone unshaved since the
Chinese and Red Koreans crossed
the 38th Parallel two weeks ago.
tThere was no elaboration on
this report.}
Full Training Promised.
Gen. Collins in his Korean
news conference said:
Il am not going into the fu-
ture. but as of now we intend to
stay and. fight in Korea.
This modifying reference to the
future added to the mystery Of
just what the United States in
tentions were.
Gen. Collins insisted that de-
spite the needs of the United
States 9th Army in Korea, he
would not send poorly trained
men in as combat requirements.
Il am not going to send men
with less than the full basic
training He indicated this
would require about four months
for the individual soldier.
Gen. Collins emphasized his be-
lief the 9th Army and attached
units face no military disaster in
Korea because of greatly superior
numbers Of Communist troops.
Withdrawal Held Necessary.
The general explained that the
slow withdrawal of the 9th Army
IN recent weeks was the only pos
sible maneuver for an army not
large enought for it's theater and
flooded by overwhelming num-
berS.
1.-THE front line is so great and
numbers against us go great that
it is not practicable to stand" he
said. "We are not going to do
anything to endanger it. 1t is our
only army in the field"
On his last visit, after the fall of
the Korean Red capital of Pyong-
yang and the big Allied fallback
toward the 38th Parallel, Gen.
Collins said he was confident the
Army would not suffer any major
losses. He repeated that view to-
day, but refused to discuss future
possibilities.
Gen. Collins said he would spend
two days in Korea. He paid a
flying visit to front line areas, ac-
companied by Gen. Ridgway.
Vandenberg Visits Base.
General Vandenberg visited
South Korean air bases today "to

WASHINGTON, Aug. 18-IR- w. Avcrel Hartman challenged today an assertion by Patrick J. Hurley that the late President Roosevelt sought to soften the terms of the Yalta agreement be- tween the U. S, Britain and Rus sia.
