MACARTHUR IGNORED GENERAL STAFF WARNING

The long drawn-out investigation of the removal of
General Douglas Macarthur has been largely confined
the conflict between his views policy and that of
the Administration, but, to pointed questions
the last day of his testimony General Omar N Brad

der pressure of Senator j. William Fubrigh Arkansas
that criticism of General MacArthurs conduct

The strategy of General Macarthur involved the split
of these forces in the face of the and unexpected
Chinese Communist invasion When advised of the con-
of the Joint Chiefs that the two forces would be split
General Macarthur replied that () there was~no point

<f'sAs everybody knows, who has kept up with the
fighting in Korea, the enemy did take advantage of the
situation by driving between the forces solatng

that, result American suffered great setback

Moreover. Senator Fubright brought out, by his
questions that both of the points rejected by General

TIGGER said, Now that you're
- thinking it out more analyti-
cally, Professor, would you say il
was the impact of that piece of
writing. its hint of desperation
say, that impelled you to place
the Public Notice?"
Scott was suddenly staring at
him, like a man susceptible to
hypnosis.
Jigger'S voice raised a notch.
"You weren't just distressed over
creative talent suddenly imper-
lied, not fundamentally. II was
concern for her well-being and
safety, that drove you to adver-
tise- Isn't that it?"
Scott didn't answer; he seemed
absorbed in a finely surgical self
analysis Jigger waited, then said,
This aura of disaster over Sally
Woods. this last exercise not too
unlike a death note, didn't it sug-
gest violent end close upon her?
Doesn't it suggest that she could
be the girl now in the City
Morgue?"
Jigger paused, to let the alarm
register fully. This last writing
you have it?"
Yes"
May l see it?"
Scott moved mechanically, like
a man slowly leaving a meSmer-
lied state. He said Unexpectedly,
I'D rather not, because student
material is of intimately personal
nature; it should be as sacred to
my keeping as the private files of
a physician" His tone stiffened as
he rose to his proposition with
some vigor. I've been unpardon-
ably indiscreet already"
Jigger was aghast. You're not
serious! You can't mean to stick
to that attitudel"
Il do" Now there was a pre-
posterouS firmness in the bespec-

Woods is concerned. In such cir
cumstances, l cannot treat my
trust lightly"
Jigger forced a more compat-
ible tone. 1T was only supposition
when / came here. Since then,
developments born of our inter-
view have made the identicaIness
of your missing student and my
murder victim quite probable.
Your-ah-ethical standard is adj
mirable, but from a police point
of view those writings have be-
come evidence. The police would
certainly insist that you yield
them"
Scott looked at Jigger curiously.
You're not policemen?"

Il also have confession TO
make. Since you've been so open,

Scott looked relieved. Thank
you for your candor. Your story
had frightened me"
Jigger fertilized the seed smil-
ingly, I'm anxious to relieve that.
Despite your fears for Sally
Woods. she may just have gone
away"
Scott nodded comfortably, ac-
cepting the explanation. His face
settled into repoSe and he began
to pack work materials into his
dilapidated briefcase in the man
ner of a man anxious to return
to an orbit from which he had
been pulled forcibly. He nodded
distractedly to Jigger's goodbye.

Jgger bit into his lip. A mis-
take, referring to the police as a
third party. He calculated rapidly
The ubiquitous Prescott might not
be far behind; better to place
himself Squarely on the record as

iety, naturally, is to see the case
solved as quickly as possible.
Meanwhile, as the saying goes, l
am under a cloud"
Scott said Sympathe tically,
Thank you for your confidence. +"
You can see why l find it hard
to reconcile your ethical attitude
with my anxiety for justice?"
They can be reconciled, Mr..
Moran"
Howl"
If you We're to find more sub
Stantial proof that Sally Woods
could be the victim. If | were so
convinced, would offer you the
utmost cooperation"
Jigger retreated inside himself,
thoughtfully. The writings of
Anne Brown as pointing clues
held little immediate promise. In
this nebulous stage of the case,
they could merely show emotional
distress, the conflict of personal
tiles, but without names, without
stipulation of places or events.
Later, perhaps, wher actual life
details had been uncovered, the
writings could be used as keys
aiding an investigator in deter
mining the true inner relation
ships, the loves, antagonisms,
hatredS, rivalrieS, between Sally
Woods and some of the people in
her life. Among these people was
a murderer Sally Woods and
Anne Brown were the same per-
son.
TIGGER came to a decision. The
move now was to hedge, to
restore the situation to what it
had been before he had stormed
into it. Scott could be useful, UNI
less proved useless by future
events. Under wraps, he was ex-
elusive property, to be exploited
or forgotten. Left stirring with
alarm as he was, he could become
public property by merely picking
up the telephone.

done some thinking. have tried
