Washington Post seems to have
even more idifficulty than the
Herald-Tribune deciding whether

torial berating MacArthur for is-
suing his statement and for talk-
ing confidentially to members
of the House Military Affairs
Committee, who later warned of -a
possible -surprise attack by thein Korea or elsewhere;
The Post editorial even de-
nounced _-.~i_ publication =. of an of-
ficial document predicting that
Russias- fighting-age "manpower
will reach-32-million by 1970. The
legislative reference service of the
Library of Congress published the
booklet in response to a Houseresolution. q ' -" _ 3 V
.It is hard to see how this sort

-
I told Fbrd it was probably some operational matter
and Ford said he frankly didn't see any necessity but since ~
the Attorney General made the request he thought we should
ascertain the reason for the delay.
I have mentioned this to.Ur. Ladd and a check is
being made. - .

Mr. Hoover: _ -
T? vately
exp itude aboutfuture political plans as follows:
The General definitely will
not campaign for the presidency and will
continue his present activities without
definitely committing himself. However, 'if a stalemate arises insofar as the
Republican nomination is concerned and-
General MacArthur feels that it will behis patriotic duty to accept the nomination}~he will then agree to be nominated. o'E§§§@%§%§§@%§%§g%@
I' The same source also stated thahp
according to General 1IIIIIIIIIIIII!D 92§ .. MacArthur and General Eisen ower had $3} gconference some time in the past. During '
the course of the conference, General Eisedi
hower allegedly discussed the possibility ifhis being nominated by both the Democratic atand Republican Parties for the presidency
and indicated he would like to run with
this dual nomination. General MacArthur -
literally "blew his top" and asked Eisen- .hower if he realized what he was s ying.s-'25 c 1* @1@=r~<s:.4a%4. e - ma w, £Q§§k lb R2 ,

General MacArthf pointed out that this
would be destroying the twoeparty system,
by which the citizen is guaranteed a
choice of candidates and that Eisenhower's
actions would be contrary to the whole
political philosophy of this country.
