ACHESON APPEALS FOR A U.S. SPIRIT OF CONSISTENCY

Dangers Of Great Debate On Far Eastern Policy

Washington, Apr. 19.

On the eve of General MacArthur's speech to the U.S. Congress, Secretary of State Dean Acheson appealed to the nation to conduct its Great Debate on Far Eastern policy in a spirit of consistency, and Presi- dent Truman made what shaped up as a declaration of the Pacific govern- menta.

Mr Acheson appealed to the nation to remember that the Comin- form is listening. He advised friends of the United States abroad not to be dismayed by the number of views expressed. He termed the debate "a national discussion."
