Famine Threat In Believed To Be Receding

New Delhi, May 22.

POLICY IN KOREA IS STILL ONE OF "WAIT AND SEE" Gen. Bradley's Testimony

The first indication that India may have turned the corner and that the famine threat is receding was given tonight in a guardedly optimistic speech by India's Food Minister, Mr K. M. Munshi.

Addressing the Food Com- mittee of the Congress Party, Mr Munshi said that India hat now secured steady supplies of about half a million tons of good grains for each of the critical months from May to

August

spring harvest in Inida had also nearly doublet stock? from the almost starvation level of 750,000 tons in January to 1,400,000 tons in May.

"We have lived so far from Munshi said, "but in view of the improvement of

Washington, May 22. General Omar Bradley told Senators today that the major American political and military policy in Korea is still a wait-and-see proposition which hinges on how the current Communist offensive turns out.

General Bradley made this statement to the Senate committee investigating General MacArthur's dismissal in response to questions by Senator Leverett Saltonstall (Republican) who told General Bradley it appeared to him the nation was following a negative policy in Korea.

Mr Saltonstall read from reports of the Joint Chiefs of Staff that on Feb. 13 and again on March 15 the military high command was not able to get the State Department to define the political objectives in Korea.
