and Gen. MacArthur is said to have initialed. It was issued in the name of the President, but he probably did not see it. Ambas-| sador-at-Large Philip C.

Ross, the President's press secretary, sald that Formosa was not discussed during the full conference. Asked whether the full conference reached the Indo-China situation, Mr. Ross replied that he could not go beyond the President's statement. Centered on Korea The official statement noted merely that the President and the General talked privately before the full conference. It then went on to say that the discussions

centered on Korean problems, “which are Gen. MacArthur's most pressing responsibilities.”

Korea. was the principal business and took most of the conferees’ time together, » As far as could be told from the statement or from Mr. Ross’ running account of the conference before the statement was is-| sued, nothing was taken up with regard to Korea which had not already been blueprinted by the United Nations or which ordi-| nary correspondence. could not! have covered. At one point the conference turned to Gen. MacArthur's views on the future of Japan, but that| hardly seemed to justify the ex-| traordinary length to which Pres-| ident Truman had gone to see Gen. MacArthur. As the Presi-| dent's statement itself pointed] out, Mr, Truman already was in-| formed . through the General's written reports.
