Ike Realizes
Korean Trip
Hazardous
President - elect Eisenhower
knows he is taking a great risK
when he vi:":j the Korean battle
field. But that risk is not so much
to his own life as to the morale of
both soldiers and American citi
zens. Frank McNaughton, Washington
correspondent for Time magazine,
pointed out this risk in a joural
ism convocation in Love library
Auditorium Wednesday.
If no immediate solution to
the war appears after Ike's Ko
rean visit, McNaughton said,
there may be a definite letdown
in morale. But be said that to
write-off a two-year war in no
time" is impossible. Die has no
formula or panacea in mind, be
added.
McNaughton said that Eisen
hower believes that "if one man,
even a GI, could give one thought
of solution, it would be criminal
(of Eisenhower) if he did nrt go
after it"
Speaking on the subject, ''Wash

praised Ike's governmental ap-
pointments.
He said of:
1. John Forter Dulles "If
any man can pick a better man
than Dulles" for Secretary of
State. "I'd like to know." Dalles
