PACIFIC DOCTRINE FORMULATED BY U.S.
Sequel to Wake meeting
Washington, October 22,
The Wake Island conference between President Truman and Gonoral Doug- fas MacArthur hos produced a "Pacific Doctrino" comparable in im- portance to the 1947 "Truman Doctrino", Washington observers believ- od. The "Truman Doctrine" guaranteed aid to Greece, Turkey and other Mid-
dle East countries to help, fight Communism.
The now "Pacific Doctrine" cannot be officially attributed to the Wake Island conference because, under the United States Constitution, no one can share with the President the responsibility for formulating for cign policy.
Interpreting his San Fran.. cisco speech in the light of Press conference statements by the President and his advisers, on and off the record, obser- vers here discern a coherent Pacific doctrine.
