Misled Cain charges staff over MacArthur testimony
Washington reports Senator Cain accuses the Joint Chiefs of Staff of misleading Congress about a December message to General MacArthur. He urges recall for further testimony and contends the paraphrase falsefully underrepresented the full contents and urgency of the original message regarding Korea.
Dispute Over Korea Evacuation Hint Dates From Hearing
General Bradley and Chairman Russell of the inquiry group weighed in on who first raised evacuation prospects in Korea. Cain pressed for a formal vote on the issue but was told the matter could not be put to a vote. The December timing and differences in paraphrase remain disputed as to whether MacArthur or the Joint Chiefs first raised the idea.
