Efforts Being Made
To Discredit Gen.
MacArthur
TOKYO, Jan. 23 — (/P) — A
spokesman at General MacAr
thur’s headquarters said an asser- j
tion by Tass, official Soviet news
agency, that the U. S. Military
Command in southern Korea, is
inspiring “reactionary” protests
against the Moscow conference, is
part of a “definite program to dis
credit General MacArthur and to
force further changes in the pres
ent occupation policies and com
mand.”
While southern Korea is under
the direct command of Lt. Gen.
Hodge, it is included in Gen. Mac
Arthur’s command. The Russians
control Korea, north of the thirty
eighth parallel.
Tass assailed the “reactionary
press” in southern Korea as al
legedly carrying on an anti-Soviet
propaganda campaign. “It is
known that orders have gone out
to all opposition forces, including
the so-called Communist party
members in Japan to do their ut
most to discredit General MacAr
thur,” his spokesman said.
“It is a deplorable condition
when some dissident press of the
world continues to incite and fo
ment international mistrust,” he
i said.
SEOUL, Jan. 23—MV-Lt. Gen.
Hodge, U. S. occupation command
er in Korea, replying to the crit
icism by Tass, declared “any ac
cusation against this command
is without basis of fact,” Hodge
said. He had no comment on the
possible effect, if any, that the
Tass dispatch might have on func
tions of the joint Soviet and
American commission now in ses
sion here to plan Korea’s rehabili
tation.

JOHANNESBURG, South Afri
ca—(jP)—The City Council has de-!
cided to “Buy British” even when
the price is 28 per cent higher
than the lowest American bid.
A tender for goods on this basis
was debated and the argument
that won was:
The U. S. buys less than 28 mil-!
lion dollars worth per year from
South Africa compared to more
than 160 million dollars worth
purchased by Britain.
“It is our duty,” said one coun
cilman, “to buy British and thus
help to restore British export trade
to its flourishing pre-war state.”
