Hurl Charges of
False Economy
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
Defense Department order clos
ing 33 military bases from New
York to California brought a
barrage of protests today from
Congress, including charges of
false economy.
But Defense Secretary Robert
S. McNamara indicated Thurs
day that the closing ocders were
part of a new economy cam
paign that would gear savings
to spending.
Until now, that has not al
ways been the case. In the past
because of a steady buildup in
Polaris submarines and other
defense programs, the Defense
Department had to explain with
each cost reduction why spend
ing was increasing.
Bill To Block Closings
Nothing placated Congress,
however. Sen. Kennedy B. eat
ing, R-N. Y., introduced a bill
to block the base closing? in
economically depressed areas.
Rep. Samuel S. Stratton, D-N.Y.
promised to turn the Pentagon
upside down before accenting
the cutbacks. New York stands
to lose seven installations.
Rep. Bob Wilson, R - Calif.,
said the decision to close Ihe
San Diego naval repair facility
lacked logic in view of other
"pump-priming" programs. Wil
son said he has asked Assistant
Navy Secretary Kenneth BeLieu
to reconsider the closure on the
basis of "economic horse
sense."
Under McNamara's order, a
total of 33 bases would be shut
down over a three and one-half
year period. Twenty six of the
bases were in the United States.
The seven others were in three
foreign countries, but were not
idntified until the governments
concerned can be informed.
'Net Loss' of .Iritis
In bis news conference, Mc
Namara said the closings will
result in a "net loss" of 8,500
civilian jobs. It was evident,
however, that many other civil
ian workers at the bases will
have to make long distance
moves in order to keep their
government jobs. In these cases
the government will pay for the
moving expenses.
McNamara talked of actual
reductions which will bring de
fense department civilian em
ployment to the lowest level in
15 years.
The increase in mili
tary spending since McNamara
took office has been from S
billion proposed by President
Eisenhower in the last budget
he submitted to Congress, to an
estimated $51 billion for the
year ending next July 1.
