New Defense Program Might Help
To End Squabble In Armed Units
By BRUCE BIOSSAT
To American! who may have felt the armed services were
moving iteadlly toward unity despite the inevitable inter-service
barriert, it must come as a Jolt to realize how far off that goal still Is.
That awareness must surely

have followed from the disclosure
that three navy admirals believe
navy morale and effectiveness
are being seriously impaired by
un'fication efforts.
Up to now the service bicker
ings have been of no little con
sequence to those worried over
the future of our defense estab
lishment. But the general feeling
prvalled that the nation would
ride out these storms and get the
healthy cooperation it wants in
that field.
This latest development, how
ever, it likely to blot out any op
timism about an early reconcil
ing of differences. The rift be
tween the navy and the air force
is deep. It seems to have grown
out of Issues that cannot bp set
tled quietly within the halls i t
the Pentagon.
The problem at the bottom Is
not whether the navy shall have
its day in court, whether its "in
terests" shall be protected In any
drawing together of armed serv
ice functions. Properly speaking,

(he navy can have no Interests
of its own; the only interest to be
considered is the effective de
fense of the United Stales.
The prime issue is what the
navy's role should be In that de
fense. The outcome of World
War II and the new strategic sit
uation that confronted the nation
afterwards left the navy in an un
certain position.
It had defeated the only mator
surface force regarded as a threat
to American security the Japa
nese navy. In effect, it had work
ed itself out of a Job.
In the postwar era Russia has
loomed as the mighty potential
adversary in some future war.
But the bovlct union, except for
her undersea fleet of unknown
size, is not a great naval powiv
nor believed likely to become one.
The U. S. navy therefore has
laid great stress on its own carrier-based
air arm in its plan
ning for the future, on the theory
that this is the best role it can
play now that its standard sur
face baltlewagons have no more
worlds to conquer.
Yet Secretary of Defense John
son's rlprisinn not In allow rrtn.
struct Ion of a proposed navy su
per-carrier dealt these plans a se
vere blow. Since that time the In
denendent air force, committor!
to long range strategic bombing ! onr
with land-based aircraft, has
gained the ascendancy In overall
military planning.
It is at least possible that our
defense chiefs are putting too
much faith In strategic bombing,
especially in the light of Russia's
development of the atom bomb
which we had rated one of our
trump cards. There Is less pros
pect today that strategic bomb
ing would give us a decisive ad
vantage in war.
But for laymen to speculate on
the Issue will not Help much.
What we need is a tremendous
new attempt to create a rational,
realistic defense plan that will
evaluate more carefully than has
yet been done the respective roles
suitable for the three armed sr
vie branches.
Only whpn that kind of plan Is
framed will there be well-founded
hopes for an end to harmful inter
service rivalries.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 13.-f,P
The nresent Conpress has wasted
more time than it has used. Rep. I Dartmcnt
In reviewing Its work, he said:
"Congress could well have fin
ished its work and adjourned
three months ago. 1 am told that
never in the experience of old
time members has a session
dragged, along so slowly, accom
plishing' so litt.e
"The appropriation hills fur-
l nlshing the money to operate the
government for the year ending
next June 30 have Just been pass
ed. They should have been law
before the current fiscal year
started July 1."
Stockman told reporters he
hoped that the Congress will end
Saturday for the voters of the n i
tion "are fed up with It staying
In session."
"It has accomplished little but
keep the country and the world
in turmoil," he said. "When the
members get back home and talk
with their constituents they will
find them expressing the very
same sentiments I have express
ed. The people want relief from
Congrss and it's a pity they can
get only a little more than two
months of it."
Stockman said he believed that
the ending of the first session of
the 81st Congress was in a lar,7e
part brought about by the mem
bers who went home during the
August September recess and
learned first hand that the "folks
back home want an end to the
wrangling that has been going
nee the first or tne year.
The congressman said he be
lieved that If Congress does not
adjourn Saturday there "will not
be enough members left to get
a quorum in either the House or
Senate."

Military Bill For
Alaska, Okinawa
Given House OK
WASHINGTON, Oct. 12 (.
The House passed unanimously
Tuesday and sent to the Senate
a hill authorizing $203,000,000
worth of military construction in
Alaska and Okinawa.
The bill would authorize a lit
tle over $70,000,000 for imprlv
ing the Army and Air Korce bas
es on Okinawa. The rest would
be spent by all three services
in Alaska.
The bill does not carry anv
actual money, but simply autho
rizes the projects.
Congress would have to vote
the money in a separate bill In
order for the work to be carried
out.
In a letter to Congress, Presi
dent Truman asked $60,000,000 in
appropriations, and authority to
make contracts up to $92612.470
for use in military construction
in Alaska and Okinawa.
A Budget bureau report accom
panying Mr. Truman's request
did not state how much would
be spent by each branch of ser
vice nor how much in either Ala
ska or Okinawa.

would authorize the army to
