HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FAfeLS, OREGON SATURDAY, FEB. 21, 14 ACE FOURTEEN MacArthur Too Busy To Come Home WASHINGTON. Feb. II I4V-The ioum foreign affaire committee had l touchy political decision lifted 1cht out of Its handi today by 3rn. Douilas MacArthur. The general's name got tangled IP in the committee's ald-to-Chlna llwuMlons yesterday wlien some nembers suggested inviting him to (Vathlngton to testify on Far East tm problem. That started an argument. Con rressmen opposing the move said it rould e used as an attempt to boom MacArthur for the OOP presiden tial nomination. But others insisted that Mac trthur should be asked home from fapan to give valuable advice on sow to help China overcome its satfve communist armies. The general settled the whole sroblem himself. He said he is too usy to make the trip. Pressing Duties "Wliile I deeply appreciate the wnfldence reflected in the sugges tion I return to the United States M state my views to the house for ign affairs committee on the China .-elief plan," he said in a Tokyo itatement. "I hope the committee will not further the idea. "The present Japanese political iltuation involving an imminent thange of government and the heavy pressure of my duties render it impracticable for me to leave my post at the present time." That seemed to settle the fight efore it really got going. A MacArthur man. meanwhile, announced in Chicago that he is going to establish a national head quarters in Washington for backers sf the general. The Chicagx.n is Warren Wright, banker and former Illinois . state treasurer. "The objective of me and my friends," he said, "is to create a popular demand for General Mac Arthur that will compel the re publican national convention to nominate him this summer."

And what Is so intriguing as the momen tary arc ot a clear rainbow on dark storm clouds, or the delicate play of the gauzy shafts of the auroral lights above the northern horizon?
