Korean Arms Being Cut? Probe Asked
Two Republican senators demanded to know if arms shipments are being diverted from Korea to Europe and asked military officials to explain why equipment isn’t available to arm more than 100 000 South Koreans who could be pressed into fighting. MacArthur said the release of 120 000 South Korean reserves involved basic political decisions beyond his control and that Korea made the domestic decision. State Department officials said the release was Korea’s decision and not combat troops, while Bridges warned of a potential underlying problem.

House Pigeons Troops for Europe Bill Stalled in Committee
In Washington the House Foreign Affairs Committee pigeonholed one of the Senate troops for Europe resolutions. Chairman Kee and associates said it could stay there indefinitely. The Senate passed the measure authorizing six American divisions under Eisenhower’s European army but urged congressional consultation before any expansion. House Administration leaders oppose action, as the measure would be advisory and not binding. The two Senate resolutions were similar, with only one requesting concurrent House action.
