Eisenhower is on his way to Korea by ship. Security on his trip
has been well maintained by press - radio and television. Has had brief-
ing with Chas Wilson (GM) his successor as Secty of Defense. Thinsk Wil-
son is hard worker but was startled by scope of Defense Program. Situa- -
tion in Indo-China is very serious from our point of view.
Korea-Chinese are entrenched in mountains - have tunnelled through
and planted guns in mountains which are very difficult to knock out.
Commies how have jet bombers which can only be knocked out by bombing
above the Yalu River. If we do that it might be World War III.

Said New York Grand Jury presentment on Disloyalty of U. N. em-
ployees is a tempest in a teapot.
