MacArthur broke with preced¬ ent to authorize a reply to the attack. His spokesman said there was "no truth to any part" of the editorial.
He eald MacArthur had re¬ ceived no instructions of any kind from his superiors about Chin¬ ese forces in Korea. MacArthur's only orders have been to destroy the North Korean military forces and restore order and peace to the countrj'.

GEN. IKE thinks RUSSIA NOT READY FOR BIG WAR
DALLAS, Tex—Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower said yesterday he be¬ lieved Russia neither wants nor is equipped to wage global war at the  present   time.
His remarks were made m a speech at the City Club, and Eisen¬ hower stressed that he spoke fot himself, onlv', and that he was not an expert on  Russia.
"But I have .lany friends who know the Russian situation - II," he said. "The consensus among them is that the Russians .-rtill are not in a position, from either pro¬ duction capacity or morale, to pro¬ voke a global conflict."
Eisenhower firmly refused to dis¬ cuss with newsmen a United Press survey of Republican party leaders from coaj^t to coast which showed him a "long-shot" choice for the presidential  nomination in  1952.
"I refuse to discuss politics in any  form."   he   declared.

WASHINGTON — Lund crime comic books have little or no effect! on juvenile delinquency, a nation¬ wide survey of public offlclals and child counselors revealed here yes¬ terday.
Instead, the survey, released by the Senate's special crime investi¬ gating committee, showed juvenile delinquency is largely attributable; to lack of love In the home, eco-; nomic Insecurity, parental neglect, j and  family  bickering. !
