Become Dasp For U.S. Far East Military 1 Tuesday. sums MEDFORD (OREOOsT) NATL TRIBlTirE TREES Tokyo 0J.B The United States may move its Far East military headquarters' -from Tokyo to Okinawa, it has been learned from reliable sources. The matter has been discussed and now is receiving serious con sideration. - " ' There 'are 'several reasons for making the move, but one very important factor is to improve U. S.-Japan relations. . . U. S. ambassador John Allison is diplomatically, quiet on the point but some lesser State De partment officials make no secret of their desire to see the transfer take place as soon as possible.' -With the Korean armistice signed and with Japan no longer serving as the big staging base for a hot war, many - persons argue there Is no need for keep ing the United Nations Command here. There have been rumors that it would move to Korea. With Japan again a sovereign nation and with the Korean war stopped, many persons say there is no real reason for, the U. S. Far. East Command to remain here. American-held and strong ly fortified Okinawa is most fre quently named as the most logi cal place for it Because of the unavoidable friction between foreign troops and the Japanese, State Depart ment officials would like to see American troops in Japan lim ited to those serving here as se curity forces. They are here by treaty with Japan here at Japan's request to protect this island nation until Japanese se curity forces can handle the Job alone. Considered as a whole, rela tions between American troops and the Japanese people have been good. Most of the trouble has resulted from the Iwhavior of troops from Korea here for short leaves. And there, is another point Many Japanese dislike the idea Salt lake Fliers In Fourth Day Aloft Salt Lake City (U.FD A tiny monoplane droned through clear skies over Salt Lake valley to day, carrying two Utah airmen on the fourth day of their assault on the 47-day record for-sustained flight Capt Cal Cowley, 29-year-old airline pilot and Don Bean, 23-year-old mechanic and commer cial pilot radioed that they were confident they could stay up until Nov. 14, their goal of 50 days aloft Ground crews reported ' that refueling and food hoisting tech niques had been improved to a point where the plane now could remain in the air 17 hours with ou taking on new supplies. - Adrienne's 214 E.

Okinawa Built Up "The basic idea," one State Department official said, "Is to eliminate as 'many American military establishments here as we can and keep only those which have a mission to accomp lish in the direct interest of Japan." .- Since the end of World War II, the United States has spent millions 'of dollars building up Okinawa. Construction work of all types still is being pushed. Once Okinawa was so terrible that nobody .wanted to serve there. Today, conditions . are greatly improved. American dol lars have practically remade the island. . Typhoon-proof office buildings and homes have replaced the tin shacks and tents.. Many of the officers and men now have their families with them. Strategically, Okinawa is well located. It could serve well as a Far East GHQ in case of war.
