Marshall Thinks
If Political Factors Required
By United Press
WASHINGTON, May 12—Defense Secretary George C.
Marshall said today he thinks
offered to hold Korea until his armies were destroyed if
political factors required. Gen. Marshall, testifying Senate committee investigatin was questioned by Sen. Harry P. Cain (R. Wash.) about the General's requests for policy directives after the Chinese Communists entered the war. ‘Numerous References’ Gen, Marshall said Gen. MacArthur made ‘numerous references” to decisions which had to be made by this government because of the Chinese intervention. President Truman in a message to Gen. MacArthur Jan. 13 stated the importance of holding Korea and endeavored to “make clear” to the General the international political considerations involved, Gen. Marshall said. Sen. Cain asked whether Gen. MacArthur, before getting the Jan. 13 message, had said he could hold on in Korea “for any length of time up to the complete destruction of his own forces, if political considerations or political factors dictated such a course.” : “I think that is included in one

Reds Expected To Hit Again ‘Momentarily’
Thousands of Chinese Stream Across 38th
TOKYO, May 12—Chinese Reds streamed across Korea's|; 38th Parallel by the thausands today and were expected to renew their costly spring offensive “at any moment.”
Two huge smokescreens over the central and western fronts cloaked the enemy's final preparations, but-he may throw 500,000 men against the 8th Army in a supreme attempt to destroy it or drive it into the sea.

Marshall about the relation between’ Mr. Truman's message covering political factors in the Korean cam, and the Jan. 12 directive from the Joint Chiefs of] Staff detailing steps to be prepared in event of a forced evacu-
ing front. Gen. Marshall said the chiefs’ mi dealt “with possible actions in “a great dilemma,” while Mr. Truman's letter sought a “complete understanding” - with Gen. MacArthur on political factors. In reply to Sen. Cain’s questions, Gen. Marshall said statements by the supreme military commander of United Nations had to be “in= timately related” to established policy, not in conflict with it. (Gen. Marshall has asserted frequently that Gen. MacArthur's public statements and press interviews were so contrary to established United Nations war policy that he had to be removed from command. ‘Not My Intention... Sen. Cain asked if Gen. Marshall had withheld any information or comment from the committee because “it might seem to reflect upon the Democrat administration in power which you have called the constituted authority.” He suggested that was the implication of Gen. Marshall's statements that Army officers and military commanders should not supply: fuel for criticism of the way the Armed Forces are used. “That was not my intention... I don't think I can recall anythat I have withheld along Hine,” Gen. Marshall replied.
