II n A lrillr7 101M mm Ml HOTEL MEDFORD Washington OP) Con gressional military spokesmen today wrote off President Ei senhower's drastic military re organization plan as dead at birth. Some openly suggested he compromise on measures for streamlining the nation's military establishment. The President proposed giv ing the secretary of defense almost complete authority over military strategy, man power, weapons and money. Evident in fir3t remarks by key legislators was the long standing fear of a "Man on horseback" running the De fense Department and of los ing Congress' jealously guard ed "power of the purse." This was seen in critical comments on a key feature which would concentrate great power in the secretary of defense, including authority to shift appropriated funds from one purpose to an other. Hearings Planned The House Armed Services committee will begin hearings on reorganization plans when Congress returns from its 10 day Easter recess. Chairman Carl Vinson (D-Ga.), who rules his committee with an iron hand, was not immediately available for comment. How ever, he has never made any secret of his opposition to building up the defense secre tary's power. A bipartisan group of con gressional leaders already has introduced a reorganization plan which would eliminate many of the civilian assistant secretaries in the office of the defense secretary. This bill, contrary to the Presidents plan, would enhance the posi tion of the Army, Navy and Air secretaries instead of con centrating power in the de fense secretary's hands. ' Private statements by con gressional leaders underscored the virtual certainty that the plan cannot win approval as submitted. Some thought the President asked for the moon in hopes of getting a sizeable satellite. McElroy said specific legis lation to carry out the plan will be sent to Congress in a week or 10 days. The bill itself would offer the ehief execu tive a chance to modify some elements of his plan if he so desired. Wallace Questions Act by Governor Portland m Lew Wal lace, Democratic candidate for the gubernatorial nomina tion, Thursday questioned le gality of preventing an in crease in employers' contribu tions to the unemployment compensation trust fund by a $14 million federal loan. Gov. Robert Holmes Tues day said he had applied for the loan to keep 12,000 em ployers from paying a 2.7 in stead of .6 per cent rate into the fund in a move to help ease the recession. Wallace claimed that the 2.7 per cent rate was fixed for all employers for the sec ond quarter when March 31 found the fund below, the floor of $31,500,000. Mrs. Cecilia P. Galey, chairman of the Unemployment Com pensation commission and an attorney, defended the move.
