WASHINGTON When General MacArthur din- appeared into the applauding platform crowd after deliver ing hi keynote speech at the Republican National Conven tion he may really have begun his fade away froln American public life, or at least its political life. .' ' He was a Taft man. So long as the senator had a chance for the presidential nomination, MacAr thur had a chance for the vice presidential spot. There was even talk MacArthur might be consid ered for President if Taft and Gen ei-il Eisenhower stalemated each other. But the door slammed shut on all hopes MacArthur misht have had for high elective office when the nomination went to Eisenhow er. Two generals on one ticket would have been one too many, anyway. And there was no reison why Eisenhower should want him on the ticket. There was no love lost between them. Because his pre convention hos tility to Eisenhower was no secret and because their foreign policy views were so opposite. i"t t m likely MacArthur would offer to stump for Eisenhower or that Ei senhower would want him to.

In his memorable address to Congress 15 months ago he indicated he would just fade away, like other old soldiers. Martyr Role Not Gained Instead of fading, he remained conspicuously in the public eye with either other major ".peeches which, although he denied he was in politics, were political speeches. They were directed with increas ing heat against the Truman ad ministration o d nt bridge snzw ministration which humiliated him. But they contained another main theme: Defense of himself.
