[matter omitted]

In regard to the Korean situation, I heard today from a very good source which I cannot quote that the Administration expects to have things under control there within the next three weeks, then business will be as usual again.¹ I gather that once the Administration get materials and men shipped in sufficient quantity to Korea - and that will take roughly three weeks, minimum - they expect to be able to stabilize the situation there fairly quickly. To that end I am told they are requisitioning civil airplanes to carry troops and material out.
