Carter i
chiding
WASHINGTON (P)--President
Carter ordered the immediate
recall of the third-ranking U.S.
Army general in South Korea
yesterday after the general
questioned Carter's plans to
withdraw Anerican troops from
that country.
Cater ordered the general to
report to him at the White
House.
THE RECALL order was sim-
ilar to the action Harry Truman
took in 1951 when he recalled
Gen. Douglas MacArthur in a
dispute over the handling of the
Korean war.
Deputy Press Secretary Rex
Granum, who announced Car-
ter's action, declined to say
whether Maj. Gen. John Sing-
laub, chief of staff at U.S.
recalls general for
presidential policy
Nixon calls crimes
by a President legal
Forces Headquarters for Ko-
rea, would be reprimanded,
fired or reassigned.
A White House official, asked
if Carter was upset by.Sing-
laub's public questioning of the
President's policy position, re-
plied:
"HE WASN'T happy. Here
you have a general making a
policy statement when he (Car-
ter) is the commander-in-chief."
Another Carter aide urged a
reporter to keep in mind the
President's own former career
as a professional Navy officer
"and the attitude he would have
toward one who said something
like that."
Sin glaub got his orders
through the chain of command
yesterday morning, Washington
time, and was boarding a com-
mercial airliner last night for
the long flight home. He is ex-
pected here late today.
A WHITE HOUSE spokesman
said he did not know whether
Carter would see the general
Saturday or next Monday.
Granum acknowledged that
Carter had acted on the basis
of a Page one dispatch from
Seoul in yesterday's Washington
Post that quoted Singlaub as
questioning the President's plan
to withdraw American ground
forces, from South Korea in the
next four to five years.
"If we withdravy our ground
forces on the schedule suggest-
ed, it will lead to war," Singlaub
was quoted as saying.

had evidence that somebody at
Brookings was going to put
something out, I would have
taken very strong methods to
get them back."
The first part of the interview
focused on the war in Vietnam
and the invasion of Cambodia
but the forrfler president offered
little that was not known before.
NIXON RESERVED his bit-
terest comments for leakers and
protesters.
Referring -to the protesters
who continually picketed the
White House to protest the war,
Nixon said: "Oh, I could hear.
I could hear even if I had plugs
in my ears; it was that loud at
times with people marching
around."
And at another point in the
interview:
"NOBODY CAN know what it
means for a president to be sit.
ting in that White House work-
ing late at night, as I often did,
and to have hundreds of thou-
sands of demonstrators around,
charging through the streets.
"No one can know how a pres-
ident feels whep he realizes that
his efforts to bring peace; to
bring our men home; to bring
our POWs home; to stop the kill.
ing; to build peace, not just for
our time, but, for time to come,
is being jeopardized by indi-
viduals who have a different
point of view as to how things
are to be done."
If it had not been for leaks,
Nixon said, "the war in Vietnam
would have been brought to a
conclusion sooner than it was
. . - their actions had the effect
of delaying the negotiations by
giving the eniemy hope that they
would win in Washington diplo-
matically or in Paris what they
could not win on the battlefield
in Saigon."
FROST ASKED about the
White House atmosphere ibat
caused one staff member to note
in a metmdo "those who are
against us, we will destroy."
The atmosphere, Nixon said,
had to be understood in the con-
text of the time. He recalled a
conversation w it h Kissinger,
then his national security ad-
viser, when the New York Times
disclosed the bombing in Cam-
bodia in May 1969.
"We said, 'Henry, it's pos-
sible, it might be somebody on
your staff,' and Henry said, 'i
will destroy them,' " Nixon re-
counted.
When Pitt's Tony Dorsett was
a 1973 freshman he set a col-
lege record of rushing for 1,516
yards
