acArthur Removal Legal, Professors Agree

"Evidence is strong that MacArthur was not accepting directives | either from the Pentagon, or the President as his commander-in-chief,’’ said Wilbert Hindman, associate professor of political science.

in Chief, United Nations Command; Commander in Chief, Far East; and Commanding General, U.S. Army, Far East.
He has been charged with violating written military instructions from the Army Chief of Staff and the Joint Chiefs of Stafff.
In his statement removing MacArthur from command, the President made public a hitherto secret record of orders that had been sent the general by the Joint Chiefs of Staff. These ordered him not to make pronouncements that concerned foreign policy without submitting them for an OK first.
This record of specific orders sent to MacArthur began last December and extended through March 20 of this year.
The outcome of the Korean war during the next few months may have much to do with possible political kickbacks in this country, according to several professors.
"Whether or not Truman can get away with this politically depends chiefly on the outcome of the Korean war itself.” said Hindman. "It can serve to strengthen our position with Britain and France.” he said.
“These countries have repeatedly accused MacArthur of being the biggest obstacle eo peace in Korea. Now if the war continues, the po-
litical whip can be applied for more troops and material support from them,” Hindman said.
The general's removal is expected to become one of the big political issues in this country between now and the coming presidential election in 1952.
One opinion is that the Republicans will use it politically to discredit the Truman administra-

tion’s handling of military and foreign matters.
“It will develop into one of the biggest political issues before this country,” said Carl Christol, visiting associate professor of political science, “with the Republicans generally backing MacArthur, and the Democrats generally supporting Truman.”
"The Republican party has an unusual opportunity to exploit Mac-Arthur’s dismissal in-a political way by furthering their attack on the present American foreign policy,” said Anderson.
Over the question of whether MacArthur’s behavior was in line with his duty, Anderson saw no reason why the general’s removal should have been a surprise.
“MacArthur had the right to resign his command, come home, and engage in politics if that’s what he wants,” said Anderson. “Or he could have retired from the Army, and then criticized the administration in any way he chose.
“Instead,” he said, "MacArthur insisted on staying in uniform while he severely criticized administration policies, and did it knowing the UN also disagreed with his views. In the light of these things, MacArthur should not have been surprised at his removal.”
Reorganization Croup Probes Voting Slash

Popcorn Sale Nets $65 for Trojan Chest
The first clink of money in this year’s Trojan Chest drive could be heard yesterday afternoon when Spurs turned over the S65 profits from Tuesday’s “Crackerjack day.”
“Crackerjack day,” an occasion for Spurs to sell the candy-coated popcorn balls, on campus, was the first fund-raising event of the drive.
Of the three gift certificates which were hidden in the crackerjack boxes, only one has been claimed, according to Lucy Tom-boulian, chairman of the project.
ence thought Harvey’s appearance was part of the final curtain.
Miss Callahan, who played the role of Elwood's sister, was not for comment, but her stage brother, Elwood. told the Daily Trojan reporter that she "was frightened out of her wits.” Guesses of Harvey’s identity varied. Earle thought it may be one of his rooming companions at Aeneas hall. Some thought it might even be movie actor Jimmy Stewart, who played the lead role in the movie version of Harvey.
The DT, however, believes that Harvey may be found, minus his fur, cavorting in the Phi Delta Theta fraternity house.

Science Talk By Void Set Tomorrow
Dr. Robert D. Void, head of
resolution, introduced by Debate Captain Dave Cooney, read: Whereas, the principle of freedom of free speech remains as one of the fundamental and indispensable tenets of democracy, and Whereas, any undue restriction of that principle exemplifies a negation of the spirit of democracy, and
Whereas, any undue restriction of that principle tends to feed the flames of Soviet propaganda in the ideological battle of freedom vs. totalitarianism in the world today, and
Whereas, the SC student is mature and intelligent enough to evaluate the validity of political ideas and concepts, and Whereas, the open discussion of communism only tends to decrease its number of supporters, therefore be it resolved that The ASSC Senate regrets that the Polish Delegate to the UN General Assembly was denied the opportunity of speaking before the student body, and that this feeling should be directly communicated to the President of the University of Southern California.

The mobile unit has many vacancies for donors between the hours of 11:20 and 1:20, Miss Dillon said, and there are a few vacancies at every hour between 10 and 3. Those who wish to sign up today should get a card from the table in front of the Student Union, fill it out, and take it to the social hall of Town and Gown dormitory where the mobile unit is stationed.
Miss Dillon said that neither NROTC nor AROTC had come near their pledge marks of 130 each. The School of Law had 25 donors. No other first-day tabulations were available, Miss Dillon said, and it will probably be Monday before the top organization and living groups are known.
At noon yesterday, it was estimated that 75 per cent of the donors were "repeaters.” Miss Dillon said that the students should not let these people, alone, carry the burden of keeping the Red Cross blood bank insurance “paid up” with contributions . She ur^ed everyone to give and said that if they are reticent about donating they should drop by the mobile unit and see how easy it is.
To be a donor, one must only be between the ages of 18 and 60, weigh at least 110 pounds, and be in good health. Those between 18 and 21 will have to secure the permission of a parent or guardian.
Engineering Gear On Exhibit Today
Students from 210 local junior colleges and high schools will view the equipment displays at the School of Engineering open house from 2 to 5 and 6 to 9 today.
The technical exhibits will be shown in the seven departments of the Engineering building and are open to the public.
Robert E. Vivian, dean of the School of Engineering, stressed the need for more engineers today and said that the nation faces a shortage of 40,000 in the next five years unless more high school graduates turn to the profession.
Even if defense needs were not so pressing, more engineers would be needed, he said.
Some of the exhibits to be shown include an experimental color television display, a wind tunnel setup, Geiger counters, a cutaway Jet display, and gasoline knock-testing equipment.
Dr. Void says that he believes science is a condition of mind and has a primary aim of discovering1 new general relationships.
“To the layman, science is usually thought of in terms of such end products as television and automobiles,” he said.
In relating this to his topic for tomorrow, “The Role of Structure in Colloid Chemistry,” Dr. Void! pointed out that the scientific viewpoint is concerned with the broad background rather than the end result.
Judges to View Crew Queen Snaps
The judges who will pick the Crew Queen will be present at 2:30 today at the Alpha Chi Omega House when the Crew Auxiliary elects new officers.
Members in the running for the queen's post should bring snapshots of themselves for the judges’ scrutiny, it was announced.
Jack Rider, Paula Rowlands Mencken.
Gene Griffin was out of the chambers during the voting.
The Polish delegate had been tentatively scheduled by the ASSC ! Forum committee to speak last week, but arrangements did not clear through the Faculty Committee on Student Activities.
A Selections committee for picking yell leaders was set up under a by-law which was approved by the Senate and will be on the May ballot.
Members of the committee will be the dean of students, ASSC president, Amazon president, Rally committee chairman, and most recently elected yell king.
Applications for positions of assistant yen leader will be submitted to the Rally committee if students vote the by-law. All applicants would have to attend a yeld leader's school.
Four assisant yell leaders would be selected before the end of the spring semester, and a freshman yell leader will be selected in the faE.
Senator-at-large Art Wexler proposed a substitute by-law. The law was beat down amid hints that the yell leaders’ jobs had “languished in politics.”
