COL PATTERSON of USAAF

Briefed Cabinet on Korea.

Nothing in response to queries by President from any member.

THE PRESIDENT

Is following the Senate debate on foreign policy. In the meantime thinks the administration's position is being maintained satisfactorily.

STATE

In past 3 weeks has been working on a pact to brand China as an aggressor by the U.N. However we have not been able to get a majority. We have little hope that China will go along on the adopted resolutions calling for cease fire in Korea. After China turns down we will press for our own resolution naming China as an aggressor as a final step.
