Harry Truman: “I think we ought to do it.”

I do not. General MacArthur is in the Army, and on active duty, and if he has anything that is of use to the Defense Department, he ought to tell them so they can make use of it.

Of course I would. I wouldn't be discourteous to anybody. I never have been.

The ultimate responsibility is mine in any event.

I wouldn't take any, now. It's a little late.
