I told Fbrd it was probably some operational matterand Ford said he frankly didn't see any necessity but since ~the Attorney General made the request he thought we shouldascertain the reason for the delay. �

I have mentioned this to.Ur. Ladd and a check isbeing made. - .

Mr. Hoover: _ -

T? vatelyexp itude aboutfuture political plans as follows:

The General definitely willnot campaign for the presidency and willcontinue his present activities withoutdefinitely committing himself. However, 'if a stalemate arises insofar as theRepublican nomination is concerned and-General MacArthur feels that it will behis patriotic duty to accept the nomination}~he will then agree to be nominated. �o'E§§§��@%§%§§@%§%§g%@

I' The same source also stated thahpaccording to General �1IIIIIIIIIIIII�!D 92§ ..MacArthur and General Eisen ower had $3} �gconference some time in the past. During '�the course of the conference, General Eisedihower allegedly discussed the possibility ifhis being nominated by both the Democratic atand Republican Parties for the presidencyand indicated he would like to run withthis dual nomination. General MacArthur -literally "blew his top" and asked Eisen- .hower if he realized what he was s ying.

General MacArth�f pointed out that thiswould be destroying the twoeparty system,by which the citizen is guaranteed achoice of candidates and that Eisenhower'sactions would be contrary to the wholepolitical philosophy of this country.
