THESE DAYS
--BY
GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY
Hindsight
General A C. Wedemeyer was
sent on a mission to the Far East
in 1947 to report on conditions
there and to help to devise a policy.
On September 19, 1947, he pre
sented a report on China and Kcf
ea to the President of the United
States. This report was suppressed
for nearly two years and wht/n
partially Issued, was included in
he so-called white paper on China
if the State Department and was
here lost.
Had General Weriemeyer’s re
ort been heeded and his recom
nendations followed, w’e should to
lay not be fighting in Korea. Fbr
ip had the wisdom to recognize
hat the conquest of China would
lead to the attempted conquest of
Asia. General Wedemeyer for his
joins was reduced from Deputy
Chief of Staff to a routine job ot
unning the Presidio in San Fran
•isco. One of our ablest generals,
be twiddles his thumbs at this
noment when the country sorely
needs a competent authority on the
?ar Eastern situation.
The first two paragraphs of his
■eport to the President read:
"China's history is replete with
samples of encroachment, arbi
trary action, special privilege, ex
loita'ion and usurpation of terri
tory on the part of foreign powers.
Continued foreign infiltration, pene
tration or efforts to obtain spheres
of influence in China, including
Manchuria and Taiwan (Formosa),
could be interpreted only as a direc'
nfringemert and violation of
China’s sovereignty and a con
travention of the principles of the
charter of the United Nations.
"It is mandatory that the Uni
ted States and those other nations
subscribing to the principles of the
charter of the United Nations
shquld combine their efforts to in

[sure the unimpeded march of ai
I peoples toward goals that recog
; nize the dignity of man and his
civil rights and, further, definitely
provide the opportunity to .express
freely how and by whom they will
be governed.
i “Those goals and the lofty alms
] of freedom-loving peoples are jeo
pardized today by forces as sinister
as those that operated in Eurojte
i and Asia during the ten years
leading to World War II. The
pattern is familiar—employment ot
subversive agents; infiltration tac
tics; incitement of disorder and
I chaos to disrupt normal economy
' and thereby to undermine popular
confidence in government and
leaders; seizure of authority with
out reference to the will of the
people—all the techniques sk.il
fully designed and ruthlessly im
plemented in order to create fav
orable conditions for the impos
ition of totalitarian ideologies.
This pa* tern is present in the Far
i East, particularly in the areas con
tiguous to Siberia.”
There is a tendency abroad, un
doubtedly stimulated and acceler
ated by the friends of Dean Ache
son, to blame our unreadiness to
meet the onslaught in Korea on
!he Department of Defense, on
Louis Johnson, and on General
Douglas MacArthur.
This attack is obviously unfair
and even dishonest and for these
reasons:
1. The foreign policy of the
United States is composed by the
President and implemented by the
Secretary' of State. Prom Teherar.
(1943) until Soviet Russia attacked
us in Korea (June 1960 >, that
policy was one of abject appease
ment of Soviet Russia.
The Secretary of Defense docs
not make the foreign policy. It
I has been known ever since he took
I office that Louis Johnsn has been
I opposed to the general policy on
the Far East pursued by the State
Department.
That policy supported the Com
munists in China; insisted upon
the withdrawal of our forces from
Korea and our eventual withdraw
al of General Douglas MacArthur
and his forces from Japan. It
practically proposed the abandon
ment of the Japan-Okinawa-Phil
ippines line.

ment of Defense opposed this pol- 1
icy. Their ideas were based to a
large extent on the Wedcmeyer
report which the State Department j
and the President rejected. Louis
Johnson continued throughout this
period to oppose the abandonment
of Formsa. In the record, as it
now stands, the Department of De
fense was correct.
2. The fiscal policy of this coun
try is made by the President, the
director 'of the budget and the
Secretary of the Treasury. The
Department of Defense was praised
generally when it sought to utilize
| its allotted funds to the greatest
advantage by eliminating traditional
waste.
The current attack on Louis;
Johnson that the economies prac- i
tised by the Department of De
fense are responsible for our lack
of troops and supplies in Korea
will not stand up under investiga
tion. The troops and supplies were
withdrawn not because of econ
omies but* because of a policy to
appease Russia.

bination halibut and seine boat and
