Word of MacArthur’s dismissal, reached Eisenhower as he was watching French troops maneuver \V ’ \ in Coblenz. o -o— — MacArthur's Dismissal. The biggest news story of the year is and will bei President TruIran's removal of Gen. Douglas MacArthur as commander of military forces in the Ear East, which includes the army in Korea. Opinions on the. ouster of the famous general arp shaded with ' political views. Republicans;- who although they did not support MacArthur’s demand for more / tioops and invasion of tiie China mainland, are the meet vociferous in denouncing the president for his action.' • President Truman- paid personal to MacArthßr as a general and military leader, r "MacArthur's place in history as one,; of our greatest commanders is fully established,” the chief executive said. ' j Dismissal came because MacArthur, the military commander, differed with the government’s foreign policy. MacArthur waited Chinese Nationalist troops to join UN forces in Korea. He also advocated the bombiijg of Chinese bases on Ihe mainland. The administration had a different policy — that of bringing peace to the Far East as rapidly as possible. With our republican form of government', the elected head of our nation is the president. He is, responsible for setting foreign . policy. The military does not and should not, run our,country. Our civil authorities ar? responsible to the people. Our* constitution iioes not provide fbr two presi1 > dents, } MacArthur has been replaced . by Li. Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway, commander of the Eighth Army in Korea, a most capable and daring'soldler. ; , ' f The colorful plans to return to the United States in three weeks and may appear bei tore a joint session iof congress.

Mourns Her Dog Dear Editor: I hope that a certain person is satisfied since they have killed my dog. What I would like to know is how can anyone stoop so low as to do a thing like that. I have a heart, but I gm sure he hasn’t. Is a dog guilty when he is enticed by the of fallings of slaughtered rabbits. I am not for any dog that kills rabbits, but yet why not let the guilty dog take the pap. My dog has paid the price for a crime that other do»s have committed, so let this be a warning to all neighboring dog owners. * A Very Lonesome Pal of Buster’s Farmer’s Reports Ralph W. (fripe, collector of internal revenue for the district of Indiana, reminded farm and household employees that they must report wages atid pay federal social security taxes oh those farm and household epi pldyes who were brought Into the old-age ‘and survivors* insurance system on January 1, 1951.
