Possible Asia Caiastrophe
Told By General Van Fleet
WASHINGTON OB Gen. James!
A. Van Fleet says the United
Slates has failed to capitalize on
iree world strength in the Far East
and faces the strong possibility of
a catastrophe in Asia.
"Our real strength in the Far
East rests in Korea, Formosa, the
Philippines and Japan." Van Fleet
said in a copyrighted article in the
magazine U.S. News and World
Report, "Southeast Asia has little
to offer in either military or moral
strength. .
"But in the eastern area of
strength, we have (1) prevented
Japan from rearming, 2 im
mobilized our power in Korea by
an armistice.
"So now Red China, with com
plete Immunity in the north and
east. Is free to (II consolidate
within, (2) move south against
Weakness and (3) talk tough at any
and all conferences."
Van Fleet, former commander
of the 8th Army in Korea, said he

ty Fair held at Cedarville came to

wrote the article a year ago but
did not make it public. Now, on his
return from a president! mission
to Korea, he said, it "is just as
timely ... as when written."
Denouncing the armistice in
Korea as one of political expedi
ency, Van Fleet said the loss of
Korea and Indochina to the Com
munists would mean that they
would "irresistibly overflow" Ja-I
pan, Formosa, Thailand, Burma
and the .Philippines "probably
without firing a mortar," and he
added:
"Once the free world is shut off
from these priceless raw materials
. . . what hope -remains for the
Middle East, for Africa or for Eu
rope or for us: As a soldier I can
only admire the brilliant simplicity
of their battle chart."
Van Fleet termed the Korean ar
mistice a profound mistake which
"the American people . . . should
greet . . . with a sense of shame."
"For an armistice is indicated
only when a political settlement
is in sight." , he con'ined. "And
clearly, to me at least, we had no
basis for one either in Korea or
anywhere else in Asia, for the
Kremlin's major plans remained
unchanged . . - -
"In our obligations to our United
Nations Allies, I see nothing which
compelled us ' to surrender to the
Communist Chinese the initiative
in the war, And with these distant
(U.N.) political committees in
command of our battle lines, we
had to put aside all the great les
sons we had learned from Ameri
can military history.' . . .
"Our superb fighting men plus
the equally superb divisions of the
Korean Republic might have en
gaged and destroyed the enemy.
Instead they became pawns of that
diplomatic caucus."
Van Fleet said he does not be
lieve the Russians would have
come to the aid of the Chinese
Reds had the U.N. war effort been
extended to bomb Chinese bases.
"During the next two or three
years." he said, "it is inconceiv
able that they will risk major war
while they still lack the atom bomb
stockpile and those intercontinental
bombers necessary to knock us
out. , , .
"But if we still have time. I don't
say that time is on our side . . .
"We have been solely preoccu
pied with preparing for that full
scale, global war which may never
come, and have been blind to the
tepid wars which the Kremlin is
winning-, and which now threaten
to outflank the free world.
"If this trend of the last eight
years continues, we would ' lose
World War III long before it
begins."
