said he met Christine, 26, on an
otherwise lonely leave in Copen-
hagen last spring.
Then he told a reporter:
When I met her she was q girl.
and, as far as I am concerned,
she's a girl now. She's got a per-

Gen. Eisenhower explained that

Steps that led to Gen. Eisen-
hoWer's trip to Korea, and the
advance reasons he gave. have be-
come obscured both by earlier
criticism and by security circum-
stances OF the journey itself.
The President-elect now has
completed campaign promise in
one month, almost to the day,
after the November 4 election. The
record shows he promised nothing
more than to study the Korean
situation on the spot to deter
mine whether, when and.how the
war could be ended.
1t began, so far as the pub
liShed record indicates, last Octo-
ber "a in Detroit. The Republi-
can presidential candidate an
nounced he would go to Korea.
The reaction was immediate and
varied. Democratic leaders, in
cluding President Truman and
National Chairman Step h e n
Mitchell. bitterly criticized the
idea and questioned the motives.
Reporters learned later and
this has never been officially de-
nied-that the idea was suggested
to Gen. Eisenhower by one of his
campaign team of speech-writers,
Emmett j. Hughes.
Mr.. Hughes, a Life magazine
editor. last week was selected by
the President-elect as a White
