ed a television set installed in
their rooms.

to let newsmen talk with his
bride.
The husky blonde skier ack

questions, he invited the report

quickly.
Hotel employes and other
guests said the couple's presence
naa created little stir around
the hotel.

gratuities at the fashionable
playgrounds of Reno, Miami,

Den f eld A Hacks Defense
Setup in Collier's Article
Admiral Louis E. Denfeld, former chief of naval operations,
says in a signed article in Collier's today that his removal from
the navy s top command position means that national detense "is
to be rigidly controlled by political appointees as distinguished
4rfm lha rnnflrpM "
I am unimportant, but what
happened to me, and the manner
of its happening, are of the
greatest moment to the nation,"
Denfeld writes in the national
weekly.
"If it goes unchallenged, it
may mean the passing of civil
ian control of government from
the hands of the responsible, el
ected representatives of the
people. '
The former CNO reveals that
he was "fired" because his tes
timony on unification of the mil
itary services before a Congres
sional committee last fall of
fended Secretary of Defense
Louis Johnson and Secretary of
the Navy Francis P. Matthews.
He says that "the doctrine of
removal for opinions has appar
ently become official Navy policy."
At the same time, Denfeld
challenges Secretary Matthew's
testimony last January before
the Senate Armed Services Com
mittee that Denfeld's commission
for a second two-year tour as
CNO (effective December 15,
1949, six weeks after he was re
moved) had never been issued
and that the President had re
frained from issuing it on his
recommendation.
"The facts are that the com
mission, dated September 14
1949, signed by the President
and Secretary Mattnews, ana
bearing the official Navy seal,
was brought to me by the naval
aide to the President," Denfeld
states.
"Shortly after I got It, I
called on Secretary Matthews
to thank him for my commis
sion. 'There's nothing I have
done since I have been Sec
retary, he said, 'that has giv
en me more pleasure than
letting you appointed.' "
In the Collier's article, first of
a three-part series entitled
"Why I Was Fired," Denfeld
says that never in his 41 years
in the Navy had he seen even
the most culpable seaman given
the disdainful treatment that he
received following his testimony
on military services' unification
before the House Armed Serv
ices Committee last Fall.
"Despite assurances that the
Secretary of the Navy and the
Secretary of Defense would do
nothing to prevent Congress
from exercising its rights, or to
deprive American citizens of
their constitutional privilege of
free speech, swift vengeance was
taken upon those whose testi
mony offended the secretariat,"
Denfeld writes.
Denfeld says he learned of his
summary dismissal after 41
years' naval service from the
news services on October 27th
last, and that on the next day
Secretary Matthews offered no
explanation of "my cavalier
treatment" when Matthews call
ed him to his office.
Later, Denfeld declined i
European assignment, as com
mander in chief of naval forces
in the eastern Atlantic and Med
iterranean, and retired.
In the Collier's article. Den
feld maintains he was in favor
of unification, and that in his
definition unification contem
plated a co-ordination of effort.
In his opinion, co-ordination
of effort did not mean merger,
absorption or elimination, and,
he added, it should not mean
that two services can control a
third.
He continued:
"While there is a law saying
ing that there shall be naval
aviation and a Marine Corps,
in the councils of the Defense
Department the opposite view
has often been evident.
"Regardless of laws intended
to preserve naval aviation and
the Marine Corps, if the funds
to sustain them are choked or
the composition of the Navy is
determined by a two-to-one
vote regardless of funds avail
able, then naval aviation and
the Marines will be out of busi
ness as surely as if there were
no law."

1st Jel Turbine
Auto Unveiled
Towcester, England, March 10
(U.R) A British motor car com

jet turbine engine automobile to
day at the isolated Silverstone
test track near here.
A carefully selected audience
was not permitted to look at the
still secret engine of the auto

Car company of Birmingham.
Official observers of the Royal
Automobile club examined the
power plant to verify that it was
not of a conventional type.
A streamlined chasis of con
ventional roadster design encas
ed a gas turbine engine which
ran through an impressive series
of tests.
Rover officials said it was only
an interim model, and they did
not expect commercial produc
tion for at least 18 months, and
probably much longer.
The dimensions of the test car
were given as: Wheel base, 111
inches; width, 52 inches.
"The power plant," an RAC
observer said, "which is im
mediately ahead of the rear axle.

ardize aviation in the immediate
vicinity of the Albany munici

The council will appoint two
members, and the four will
select the fifth member and
