Gen. Eisenhower Completes Three
Day Tour of Korean Combat Zone
BY DON WHITEHEAD

SEOUL, up us. President
elect Dwight D. Eisenhower took
hard look at the Korean war
situation for three days, inspected
combat units near the front and
departed for the United States.
He indicated he does not be-
lieve in attacking Red China or
otherwise spreading the 215-year-
old conflict.
Shortly before his departure,
Eisenhower visited President
Syngman Rhee of South Korea
for a hastily arranged conference.
It was Eisenhower's last act in
his three-day tour and lifted a
veil Of disappointment that had
prevailed in South Korean gov
eminent circles since it had been
indicated he might not pay his
respects to Rhee.
Eisenhower had left New York
by plane in the pre-dawn hours
Saturday. He arrived here Tues
day night. His flight was a tight
ly-guarded secret.
The general-chief of the cru
SADIE to victory in Europe in
World War II-WaS fulfilling a
promise he made to American
voters in making the trip.
The general told a news con-
ference before leaving: eve came
over here to learn. We have no
panaceas, no trick ways of set
ting any problem"
But he strongly indicated the
solution to the Korean conflict
does not lie in spreading the war
to attack Red China.
He found Korea raw and cold,
heaped with the dead and rubble
of war, a wait among nations
shivering in it's third war winters
SHOWS.
If he found way to stop the
slaughter, he did not say so.
Neither did he divulge any
plans he may have formed to
take American boys at once from
the miserable foxholes and re-
place them with freshly trained
ROK troops.
He talked with troops of the
u. S., Korea, Britain, France,
Canada, Australia, New Zealand,
Thai, the Philippines - the ma
tons whose young men keep the
northern watch in Asia against
encroaching Communism.
The President elect risked
death from Russian made jet
fighters and from shippers and
assassins on the ground.
Eisenhower's son, Maj. John
Eisenhower, was assigned as his
fathers aide during his tour Of
Korea.
The. long flight from the States
apparently did not faze Eisen-
hover. He was in high spirits. He
kept up running fire of CONVEX
sation with the field command
ers. Occasionally he paused for
joke or anecdote with his old
West Point companions, Generals
Clark and Van Fleet.
To maintain secrecy enroute to
Korea, he did not leave his plane
until it reached lonely Two Jina
in the Pacific. On the long jaunt
from New York, Eisenhower's
plane carried a double crew to
insure that a rested and alert
hand was on the controls at all
times.

lar armored car cash cargo, and

The two-Joseph Murphy and
Eugene Mello, both AZ and both OF
New York-were captured yes
terday as a result of the alertness
of an armored car driver, whose

have been trying to make a key
impression of the truck lock.
More than $4,000 was found in
Mello's apartment, police said
Serial numbers were being checked

guards to call police.
Then the driver pulled his own
gun. chased and captured the man
on foot. who later was identified

Letter on Settling Evacuation Claims

that the members of Congress would

now feels the Department of JUS

in this regard at he earliest oppor-

Pointing out the slowness and ad-
ministrative costliness of the adiu-
dications program, Masaoka said
that the Department of Justice re-
ally began to move on this program
after Congress passed the amend
ment authorizing the Attorney Gen
eral to compromise and settle claims

the JACL Ado official went on.
"the Department of Justice has a

humane and realistic approach to

time, it has perfected its machinery

Particularly are we pleased
that the ratification abolishes the
enemy alien status for our Issei, :"
commented Masaoka. while the
removal of that status at this late

the enemy alien classification did
raise serious employment barriers
for the Issei, who were disqualified
