Staff Chiefs
Urged Ouster
Of MacArthur
General Bradley Gives
Three Reasons For OK
Of Truman's Decision
WASHINGTON P Gen.
Omar N. Bradley told senators
today the foint chiefs of staff rec
ommended dismissal of Gen. Doug
las MacArthur because he was
"not in sympathy" with Korean
war plans.
Testifying at hearings by the
senate armed services and for
eign relations committees on Mac
Arthur's ouster as Pacific com
mander, Bradley listed these rea
sons why the military high com
mand approved the removal:
1. MacArthur's nuhlic statements
and communications "indicated
that he was not in svmDatnv Wltn
thc decision to try to limit the
lhc decision to
conflict to Kor
wouW m,ke jt
ores. He said this
difficult for Mac-
Arthur to carry out directives, add
ing: "it was necessary to have a
commander more responsive to
control from Washington."
' 2. MacArthur "had failed to
comply with the presidential di
rective to clear statements on pol
icy before making such statements
public."
Bradley said the Pacific com
mander also had taken independent
action in proposing to negotiate
directly with the enemy field com
mander for an armistice "and had
made that statement public despite
i j r
level
3. The joint chiefs of staff "have
felt and feel now that the military
must be controlled by civilian au
thority in this country."
Civilian Rule Jeopardised
Bradley said the joint chiefs had
followed this principle and they
fell MacArthur's actions were con
tinuing to "jeopardize the civilian
control over the military author
ities." Bradley, chairman of the joint
chiefs of staff, was back before
the investigation committee for the
first time since his testimony was
interrupted last week by a dispute
over whether he should testify
shout private talks with President
Truman.
Bradley took Ihe attitude that
his worth as a confidential advisor
to the President would be de
stroyed if he did tell what was
said in conferences on the question
of removing MacArthur from his
far eastern commands.
By a vote of 18 to 8. the com
bined senate armed services and
foreign relations committees de
cided last Thursday that Bradley
did not have to relate who said
what at the White House meeting.

TOKYO OP) Reds began
withdrawing from half of the Ko

ing nearly 60,000 men, by allied
estimates, in their five-day-old of
fensive. Lt. Gen. Edward M. Almond an
nounced his Tenth corps killed or
wounded 48,341 Reds on the east
central front. Sunday's toll alone
was 24,700, he said, the biggest
one-day total of the war.
Allied officers estimated 10,220
other casualties were inflicted on
the west-central front, AP Corres
spondent George A. MacArthur re
ported. In this sector, Reds retreated
through a driving rain. Front line
dispatches Monday night told of
Communist withdrawals before ad
vancing Allies across more than
20 miles of the front.
Reds were reported abandoning
their bridgeheads below the Puk
han and Hongchon rivers, and pull
ing back toward Chunchon in the
center.
Most of the Red casualties were
inflicted by the U. S. Second di
vision, which the Communists set
out to destroy. The Eighth army
said the Second division killed or
wounded 37,750 Reds in five days.
"We've taken the starch out of '
the offensive, Almond said. "And
I feel certain that if they come at
us in even greater numbers we
ran handle them again."
Slaughter Terrific
In their new drive, the Reds fell

have a line of fire that operates

Reds' human sea wave attacks.
Almond reported. "And the second
