I have come back from this conference with increased confidence in our long-range ability to maintain world peace.Īt Wake Island we talked over the Far Eastern situation and its relationship to the problem of world peace. I also felt that there was pressing need to make it perfectly clear-by my talk with General MacArthur-that there is complete unity in the aims and conduct of our foreign policy. For Korea has become the symbol of the resistance of a united humanity against aggression. Events are moving swiftly over there now, and I did not feel that he should be away from his post too long.Īt the same time I believed that my trip to Wake Island would give emphasis to the historic action taken by the United Nations on Korea. I went out to Wake Island to see General MacArthur because I did not want to take him far away from Korea, where he is conducting very important operations with great success.
He has information at his fingertips which can be of help to all of us in deciding upon the right policies in these crucial times. There is no substitute for personal conversation with the commander in the field who knows the problems there from firsthand experience. The best way to see him and talk to him is to meet him somewhere and talk to him. I went because I wanted to see and talk to General MacArthur. I understand that there has been speculation about why I made this trip.
