Pearl Harbor Fear If Russia Expands In Pacific
Six House members on a Pacific inspection trip voiced grave concern over Russia's aims and warned of an imminent Pearl Harbor risk. They urged a stronger, mobile U S force in the Pacific, based on a high command briefing from Gen. MacArthur's staff, and pushed for long-range bomber bases to counter Soviet encroachment. The panel viewed Russia as maintaining far more occupation troops than the United States in the Far East and termed the situation alarming. The group toured Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, Saipan, Iwo Jima, and Japan, with plans to visit Korea, China, Manila and Australia.
