Statement Of
Gen. MacArthur
Presents Puzzle
w ASmlvuTON, Sept. 22 (AP)
ueneral Douglas MacArthur
nas usual military and naval
news sources professedly puzzled
uu,iy uy ins siatement from Aus
tralia that however subordinate
his role In the war may be from
nure on, no hopes "to play it
mantuny."
inese sources Insist that the
siaiement, viewed In its entire
ly, aoes not fit any particular
snuiuiun Known to them with re
spect io assignment of com
mands such as Lord Louis Mount-
oatten for Burma or General
Georgo-C. Marshall for allied
gioDai director of Anglo-Ameri
can offensives.
Authorities here profess knowl
edge oi no enanges in the rela
tionship between the naval com
mond in the south and central
Pacific areas and MacArthur's
command in the southwest Pacl-
' fin Thnu bmii .
of the Pacific war remains un
changed. , One suggestion advanced is
that MacArthur had been advis
ed within recent days of 4iow
much strength trained . men,
ships, planes and such he could
expect in coming months and
that he was dissatisfied with his
allocation. , . . i -
The MacArthu r s t a t ement
made two main points: ,-
1. mat MacArthur would car
ry on the fight regardless of
how "subordinate" his assign
ment might lie.
2. That ho feels his strategy
of advancing on Japan by taking
key island positions offers one
of the cheapest and swiftest
ways to win the war, particular
ly as against "island hopping."
One Possibility Seen
ThOSO Who hnlinvn thnf Man.
,! Arthur's statement is In reality
a report ot Ms decision to ac
cept the Mountbatten command
for Burma concede that Mount
batten would have nothing to do
with island hopping and the
statement therefore would not
apply in that respect.
Nor do they profess to think
it had reference to General Mar
shall's selection for appointment
as allied grand commander be
cause MacArthur's statement ap
parently was based on press re
ports and . MacArthur could not
then have known of the disclo
sure of Marshall's assignment by
the Associated Press in Washing
ton about the tune his statement
was issued late yeterday.
This left the possibility that he
was displeased cither with the
navy or with the allocations
promised him by the allied high
command for the continuation of
his present offensive in the
southwest Pacific which is aim
ed at returning allied forces to
the Philippine islands.
