SECRETARY ACHESON outlined the situation in accordance with the memorandum
which had been preparede
MR. LOVETT said they had received nothing from General MacArthur to
indicate he could not accomplish his missione He inquired about the attitude
of other members of the UN and whether we could count on their continuing
supports
SECRETARY ACHESON and MR. RUSK pointed out the anxiety which other
friendly members of the UN felt about our becoming more deeply involved
perhaps finally in war with Communist Chinae
GENERAL MARSHALL expressed satisfaction that Mr. Acheson had stated his
belief that General MacArthur should push forward with the planned offensive.
He expressed some doubt about the establishment of the zone and assumed that

based on the premise that General MacArthur will succeed in his pending
military offensive. The time for making political proposals would be after
MacArthur had had such a successe
