Mac's Plan Would
Split UN—Marshall
WASHINGTON, May 9—(JP)—Secretary of Defense Marshall de
clared today that Gen. Douglas MacArthur's war proposals • had
threatened to split the United Nations allies and force the United
States to "go it alone" in IlCorea.
He told senators the five-star general's outspoken opposition to
the Truman administration's Korean policy raised the issue of "what
voice "spoke from this country
on foreign policy."'
"By his public statements,"
Marshall testified, he set up a
very serious reaction among our
allies, which threatened our col
lective action with them, and
which threatened our position in
the world in relation to this great
crisis, and which threatened to
leave us in a situation of going it
alone"
'He denied, however, that for
eign governments had dictated
MacArthur's removal by Presi
dent Truman or had even suggest
ed such a step.
Mac Wanted Blockade
MacArthur wanted to hit the
Chinese Reds harder by a naval
blockade, air operations over
Manchuria and the use of Chinese
nationalist troops. The adminis
tration seeks to confine the war
to Korea, hoping to inflict such
casualties on the foe there as will
induce him to make peace.
In essence, Marshall said the
historic dispute boils down to a
clash of opinion over what Rus
sia can and will do in the Far
East.
Only One Voice
"The important aspect of the
matter is there can be only one
voice—there can be only one voice
—constitutional and otherwise in
the decisions , as to the foreign
policy at the time they are given
out," Marshall said.
"I don't•*nean by that that you
don't debate them up here . . .
but you cannot have two voices."

Loyalty Oath Amendment
Is Proposed In House
HARRISBURG, May 9—(JP)—All candidates for elective offices
would be required to take an oath they are not subversives under a
proposed amendment planned to the controversial loyalty oath bill.
Sen. Albert R. Pechan (R-Armstrong) said today the amendment
would be offered to a House committee next week.
The amendment is one of several which would completely revise
the Senate-passed measure.
The Amendments
In general the other amend
ments would do this to the bill:
1. Substitute the federal gov
ernment's loyalty oath for the one
proposed by Pechan.
2. Allow the presidents of the
'Universities of Pennsylvania and
Pittsburgh, Penn State, an d
Temple to report to the governor
once a year on the progress of
their program to keep subver
sives off the teaching staffs of
the colleges.
3. Exempt non-resident or
visiting professors from taking the
oath while they are temporarily
retained as - instructors on the
staffs of the state's colleges.
4. Allow department heads and
school boards to dismiss a person
after an investigation shows the
person is a subversive. The person
dismissed would have right to
appeal his case to the state civil
service commission or the Depart
ment of Public Instruction.
.5. The Justice Department
would not name any groups as
subversive or any persons as such.
At present, the proposed legis
lation gives the attorney general
that power.
Pechan said the oath for candi
dates for elective offices would
be taken when the candidate files
intention petitions. It would be
administered, he added, by the
county commissioner.
