Acheson had previously exchanged of the conviews with member gressional foreign relations committee. Those present at the meeting agreed unanimously to pledge support to the "general line which the secretary would follow" evidently the administration's aim at arming western Germany. The three also appeared to be in agreement on President Truman's proposal to send more American troops to Europe as an Important contribution to the common defense of the continent. Schuman indicated that France was prepared to make comparable contributions and Great Britain was expected to contribute also.

Johnson as secretary of defense and nominated Gen. George C Marshall to succeed him. The move was surprising in that the President had insisted up until a few days before the announcement that he would not ask for Johnson's resignation. Johnson had been under attack on Capitol Hill and elsewhere on the ground that he was fundamen t illy responsible for defense weaknesses brought Into glaring focus by the Korean war. There were rumors also of a wide breech between the defense chief and Secretary of State Dean Acheron which added to the confusion and demands that Mr. Truman ac cept his resignation. Under the existing unification law, no person who had been on active military duty within the past 10 years was eligible for the post of secretary of defense.

ACHESON: West Can Hold Reds Secretary of State Dean Acheson, in a major radio and television speech, asserted that modern weapons and ingenuity can build outnumbered western allies a defense that will stand firm against the hordes of communism. Observers saw another important move in Acheson's radio talk. He warned the Chinese Communists against getting into the Korean war. "There is nothing in it for them, he said. The secretary went on to explain unthat the Chinese Reds are doubtedly under heavy pressure from the Communist movement to get into this Korean row. In these remarks observers saw one of the major tasks the state department has set for itself. An all-oeffort to keep the Chinese from giving the North Koreans aid in their fight against U. N. forces. The department is undoubtedly making every effort to discourage the Chinese from sending troops Into Korea. Acheson also hit at reports of a defensive war, calling such talk dangerous and immoral. I think we must put our major effort at the present moment," he into creating strong North said, Atlantic defense forces.
