Truman to Give
Congress Plan, f
For Renovation
WASHINGTON, March 11-OV
President Truman will send to
congress, on Monday or soon af
ter, about 20 new plans for reor
ganization of the federal govern
ment, officials said today.
One would abolish the maritime
commission as now constituted, it
was reported. Ship sales, charters
and operations would go to the
commerce department.
The plans, all built on proposals
of the Hoover commission on gov
ernment reform, would become
law automatically in 60 days un
less vetoed by either house of
congress.
Instead of the maritime commis
sion, a new, smaller "national
maritime board" would be set up
to regulate shipping rates and to
grant subsidies under 'broad poli
cies laid down by the secretary of
commerce.
Another group of plans would
build up the authority of' cabinet
officers. A subordinate bureau
chief; could no longer by-pass his
department head as: some how
can and report directly to the
White House or congress.
Still another batch certain to
stir controversy would enlarge
the powers of the chairmen on
most of the nine independent
boards and commissions , which
regulate industry and finance.
The national labor relations
board, already torn by a dispute
between its five members and its
semi-independent general counsel,
Robert N. Denham, may be among
th boards affected.
The agencies involved in the
forthcoming orders may include
some or all of these: Interstate
commerce commission, federal
power commission, securities and
exchange commission, federal
trade commission, federal com
munications commission, civil aer
onautics board, and less likely
the federal reserve board.

May Result in
Less Secrecy
WASHINGTON, March lUPy
The atomic secrets that Dr. Klaus
Fuchs gave to Russia may result
in the American people being told
a lot more about the atom, a mem
ber of congress said today.
This legislator, conversant with
the extent of the English scientist's
betrayals, said; he might favor
more disclosures on the theory that
Americans are entitled to know as
much about their own atomic pro
gram as the Russians.
Another, equally familiar with
the situation, warned against a
possible trap." .
This legislator said that not
enough, information now is avail
able on what the convicted Fuchs
actually passed on to the Soviets,
and whether his confession is com
plete or, altogether true. Any pre
mature disclosure might be dan
gerous, he counseled.
Both I lawmakers, interviewed
separately, asked anonymity.
The confession made by Fuchs
to British authorities was read by
the Joint senate-house atomic en
ergy committee for the first time
yesterday behind closed doors:
At the. same time, the commit
tee scheduled two public sessions
of their j hearings on civil defense
against atomic attack. .
The first, next Friday, will have
as Its first witness officials of the
atomic energy commission.
The second, on April 20, will
take testimony from representa
tives' of the American Legion, Red
Cross, American Municipal Associ
ation and others.
The idea is to give the public at
least some glimpses of the state of
the country's preparedness against
atomic blitz. Another aim is to ob
tain recommendations from nrnmi.
nent persons on what should be
done.

National Guard
To Stage Giant
Maneuvers
WASHINGTON, March 11
Some 300,000 national guardsmen
will stage mock war maneuvers
across the nation this summer in
the biggest peace-time field en
campment in guard history.
The department of defense said
the guardsmen described as "the
best equipped national guard in
history" will use the latest types
of. weapons In their two-week
training periods in 37 state and
federal camps.
Altogether, the guardsmen will
make up 27 infantry and armored
divisions training as complete or
ganizations. The department said the sched
uled program "assures progress
toward attainment of M-day read
iness." M-day is mobilization day.
"For the first time, aome states
are planning to make at least part
of the movement of army units to
the field an air-borne operation."'
said Mag. Gen. Kenneth F. Cra
mer, chief of the national guard
bureau.
Other units, Cramer said, will
travel from their armories to
camp in more than 50,000 national
guard vehicles and by train and
bus, under conditions simulating
a regular mobilization.
Training will be under the sup
ervision of regular army instruc
tors and the guard's own officers,
mostly World War II" veterans.
The units will represent all of the
48 states, and also Hawaii, Puerto
Rico and the District of Columbia

Acth is the ultra-scarce hor

The output from both packing
