Lovett Says No Need For UN To Okay Air Strikes
Washington defense chief Lovett stated in an emergency the joint chiefs could authorize bombing Manchuria without UN Security Council approval. In London Churchill said he was not consulted on Allied raids on Yalu river plants and suggested possible representations to the U.S. He warned of debate in Commons on Korea and emphasized UN policy limits on hostilities while acknowledging ongoing air operations to reduce enemy war potential in Korea. Attlee pressed for immediate debate, questioning whether consultations with those fighting in Korea were ignored and noting impacts on Manchuria.
