our national strength we must act
with great prudence insofar as ex
tending the arap 'ol hostilities is
concerned.
“Steps *Whichmiight in themselves
be justified and which might lend
some assistance to . the campaign
in Korea; would not be beneficial if
they thereby involved Japan or
Western “Europe in large-scale hos
tilities.” |

ed off by MacArthur’s dismissal

inevitable. Marshall' siid the ex
pectation was that oitce this waveij
passed “there would be some sober
thinking.”

any respect r^corhfriendations rfutfle
by the Joint Chiefs of Staff as to'
Formosa's future or the admission of

Joint Chiefs “emphatically recom
mended" that terms of a Korean

admission to the UN, but "did not
recommend that there would be no
discussion of yiem >n the final set
tlement.”
