Secret Korean war report fuels wartime policy rift
During postwar hearings General Wedemeyer told senators the United States kept a crucial China and Korea assessment secret for months. He criticized Truman era Korea policy and urged possible withdrawal of U.S. forces, while weighing a Manchuria trusteeship and harsher actions against Communist China. He faced questions on wealth rumors about Chinese Nationalists and shared details of wartime decisions with McMahon Knowland and others.

The Chicago livestock markets show higher shipments as government price cuts loosen controls. Cattle raisers and feeders moved 16,800 animals in 32 major markets, up from 26,312 last week and 87,599 a year ago. One day of increased receipts may ease beef shortages in cities, though sustained gains could tighten meat supply before planners can adjust.
