|MocArtbur's Statement
On Pentogon Documents

Following Is the tert of Gen.
MacArtbAr,s statement today
on q documentary report By
the Pentagop on Russid's en-
try into the tUGr against
japan.
The report Of the Department
OF Defense fully confirms that
! was never consulted concern
ing the Yalta conference, that
/ exercised no influence what
soeyer thereon and knew MOTH
ing about its secret agreements
until after they had been con-
summated and communicated to
me. The report furthermore
clearly demonstrates that the
basis Of such agreements lay In
decisions taken by the State De-
partment on political policy and
the Joint Chiefs Of Staff on
military policy long before Yal-
Ia. Of these ] was not informed.
However. once such decisions had
been taken and communicated
to me following Yalta, they be-
came binding upon me as upon
any other theater commander.
All future discussions thereon
with War Department represen-
tatives necessarily became linn
tied to consideration Of their
ultimate application to the con-
duct of the war. The attempt
to interpret any statements ]
may have made In the course
Of such post t-Yalta discussions
as rejecting my pre-Yalta views
and convictions Is wholly un-
warranted.
The issue involved at the
origin Of this controversy was
not whether Russia should have
been brought into the Pacific
War--this should have clearly
been done at the very beginning
but whether we should have
made vital territorial conces-
sions at the expense Of Chinese
sovereignty to induce Russia to
come In at the end. On Decem-
Der 13, l941. I urged that Russia
attack Immediately from the
north. This would have saved

Gen. Macarthur has cited two

Concerning overall plan Gen.
Ieral Macarthur considers it es-
lsential that maximum number Of
Jap divisions be engaged and

strike Japan proper.

the same convention after hls
return to Washington:
AZ to Russia, Gen. Macarthur
pointed out that politically they
want q warm water port which
would be Port Arthur. He con-
Esidered that 1t would be I'm
practicable to deny them such
ia port because Of their great
military power. Therefore. II
was only right they should share
the cost In blood in defeating
Japan. From the military stand
point we should make every ef-
fort to get Russia into the Japa-
Inese war before we 60 into Japan,
otherwise we win take the inn
pact Of the Jap divisions and
reap the losses, while the Rus
slams in due time advance into
ian area free of major resistance.
Gen. Macarthur stated he con-
Isidercd the President should
start putting pressure on the
Russians now.

infiict heavy punishment but
would at once relieve pressure
