Korean Envoy Appeals For Military Aid
Washington, June 26.
The Korean Ambassador, Mr John Chang, went to the White House today to deliver to Pre- sident Truman an appeal from President Syngman Rhec of South Korea for United States aid. The Secretary of State, Mr Dean Acheson, was with the President at the White House when Mr Chang made the appeal.
Mr Chang said that although the "hour is late" and the Communist forces already may be in Seoul, he hoped that the United States would aid South Korea. He pointed out that military as- sistance has been authorised by Congress, but Korea has not received it yet. Congress still has not appropriated funds for the foreign military aid programme. Mr Chang said the factor of time is vital.
The Korean Embassy re-allowed no regular enliers to- leased a statement from the day so that he could concentrate
