PROPOSED ORDER TO GENERAL MacARTHUR TO BE SIGNED BY THE
PRESIDENT
I deeply regret that it becomes my duty as President and Commander
in Chief of the United States military forces to replace you as Supreme Com-
mander, Allied Powers; Commander in Chief, United Nations Command;
Commander in Chief, Far East; and Commanding General, U. S. Army, Far
East.
You will turn over your commands, effective at once, to Lt. Gen.
Matthew B. Ridgway. You are authorized to have issued such orders as
are necessary to complete desired travel to such place as you select.
My reasons for your replacement, which will be made public concur-
rently with the delivery to you of the foregoing order, will be communicated
and am
to you by Secretary Pace.
