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."

Secretary Sullivan said today the
navy must recruit or reenlist 70,000
men before July 1.
"That Is the minimum we need to
keep our ships and planes and shore
stations operating," the secretary
said in a speech.
"Upon these men. these ships, and
these planes depend to a large extent
our security and the peace of the
world. We must not fail."
Sullivan said the men are needed
because of short term enlistments
now expiring.
