“Put More Troops
In Korea Or Take
Them All Out”
WASHINGTON, (/P) — New de
mands for withdrawal of Ameri
can troops from Korea are adding
to the volume of the big foreign
policy controversy in Congress.
Several House members from
both parties opened up on the
critical Korean situation last Fri- j
day. And in the Senate, Democrats
and Republicans were lining up
batteries of speakers for resump
tion this week of their argument
I
over international issues.
Rep. Sikes (D.-Fla.) told the
House that General Douglas Mac
Arthur’s divisions ought to be re
enforced or “we should get our
men out of Korea.”
Rep. Gross (R.-Iowa) wrote
President Truman urging evacua
tion of American troops which
make up the major part of the
United Nations command under
attack by overwhelming numbers
of Chinese communists.
Telling the President “You
launched a war in Korea, on the
Asiatic mainland, that you cannot
win,” Gross said that as early as
1948 the joint chiefs of staff had
told the House foreign affairs
committee that if communist forc
es moved in, the position of Amer
ican forces then occupying south
ern Korea would be untenable.”
In Bismarck, N. D., the North
Dakota Senate Friday passed a j
resolution 36-5 urging withdrawal ^
of American troops from Korea, j
The resolution was directed to
Congress and the President.
Mr. Truman has indicated that
U. N. forces will not be withdrawn
and MucArthur has been told he
cannot expect any American re
enforcements.

Xmas Greeting
Cards Backfire
BOSTON, (/P)—-Phil Shea’s uni
que Christmas card is giving him
a tax headache.
Shea, a Boston Associated 'Press
editor had 200 greeting cards
printed to resemble theater tick
ets.
The tickets invited friends to
enjoy two big features, a “Merry
Christmas” and a “Happy New
Year” at the so-called “Yuletide
Theater.”
But then from some collector of
internal revenue Shea got a form
letter calling for the customer
ticket tax.
“It looked to me like a good
iead at the time,” said Shea, in
his answer to the collector. “But
now I’m not so sure.”

Japan Too Hastily”

nation should not be undertaken

as mature deliberation.”
