And some Congressmen sug gested Truman meet with both Elsenhower and MacArthur to try to achieve a program for peace, NO DETAILS MacArthur gave no details of any Korean peace plan In his New York speech last Friday. He did say It would not lead to unduly henvv Allied casualties. MacArthur did not say flatly that he knew a way to end the Korean war. What he said was: ! am confi dent there Is a clear and dolmiie solution to the Korean conflict." Truman told his news conference that he thinks the Joint Chiefs of Staff know what MacArthur's pro posal Is all about and he thinks there Is nothing new in It. A Defense Department spokes man said Tuesday ne was not aware MacArthur had supplied any plan for peace to nis em players" meaning his military superiors through the Army sec retary or chief of staff. In New York. - General MacAr thur's office said MacArthur was unavailable for comment on Tru man's press conference remarks. A sookesman snld he doubted that. ' even if contacted, MacArthur would make any comment. Truman came to his news con ference obviously ready to do bat tie with the two generals.

There was no live telecast of the news conference The conference opened with a question asking the President's re action to a suggestion by Sena tor Waikins iR.-Utahi. that he in vite Eisenhower and MacArthur to a conference on Korean strat egy. The President said he could not see any good purpose would be served by such a conference, but he said either man would be welco-.nc if he had something he wanted to discuss. Then, referring to a statement Elsenhower made after complet ing his visit lo Korea last week that he had no panacea or trick solution to ending the Korean war, Truman said that was a quotation from one of his own iTruman's) campaign speecnes.

Asked about a report that the attorney general of Massachusetts had said Truman was urged to sav during the recent campaign that hr himself would go to Korea, the President said such a step was suggested. But, he said, he rejected the suggestion deciding 11 would serve no good purpose and It wouitf De 1 Just a piece of demagoguery. And he added, with a touch of I acid in his voice, that Is Just what it turned out to be. I Atty.-Gen. Francis E. Kelly of Massachusetts told the National Association of Attorneys General at Sea Island. Ga.. earlier this week that Truman had rejected a Korean trip proposal during the campaign. Reporters pres-sed Trnman as to whether he considered Elsenhow er's trip announcement a piece of demagogucry. The President said the announce ment was a piece of demagoguery and of course Eisenhower had to make the trip after saying he would. At that point, Roger Tubby, act ing presidential press secretary, got up to talk briefly with Tru man. Truman then turned back to uie i reporters and said Tubby had sug aested some good may come out of the Eisenhower trip. If It does, Truman said, he will be the happiest man In the world.
