Mr. Lovett and General Bradley believe that a meeting
with me, some of my colleagues and the JCS is urgently
needed on Korea. They have asked General Ridgway to send
some high officers here who may arrive about January 28.
We should urgently prepare ourseives for a meeting to
consider what steps to take in regard to the armistice, what
steps to take if the armistice seems to be bogged down. They
would like very much to have General Ridgway here for these
discussions but that does not seem to be practical.
They discussed with me the desirability of periodic meetings
between all the commanding generals responsible to the JCS.
The idea met with favor but it was thought advisable to postpone
the first meeting for some months, perhaps putting out now a
general statement saying that such periodic meetings would be
held beginning say in May or June.
