"Admiral Hall commands the 14th naval district the navy he does not command Uie army." Hill spoke In favor of armed forces unification, an issue now admittedly dead for this session of congress. As a member of the military committee and ardent advocate of unification. Hill said he de cided to lay the case for the legislation which never reach ed the senate floor before his colleagues as a result of an antl-unificatlon speech delivered in the chamber last week by SenMo- Hart (R-Conn)., a retired admiral. Hill said that naval officers are toasting the failure of con gress to act on the legislation "exactly as they would toast a navy football victory over the army." "The difference between the navy's unselfish devotion to duty in the war and the present selfish attitude of those In high author ity in the navy toward the pres ent and the best interests of the national defense is appalling," he asserted. Hill said Hart tried to make the senate believe that 'this whole scheme of unification is a vast army plot to 'sink the navy,' cooked up by ex-West Point ca det generals bearing an army navy football grudge, against ex middy admirals." Hill contended that the only organized opposition to unifica tion is "the navy department with its Navy league." Ho des cribed the league as "primarily a group of steel and munitions makers whose biggest customers are the navy." "Many of them are also mem bers of the Army Ordnance as sociation," Hill added. "It is interesting to note that the Army Ordnance association is not supporting unification either. Why? Because there is obviously more money in sell ing steel and munitions to two competing and duplicating mill U'y and naval procurement agencies than to only one." He said that while the public thinks of Gen. MacArthur as the supreme commander in the Pacific, he ia not because he docs not command the navy. "We are right .back where we started," he said. Like the Bourbon kings of France, 'wc have learned nothing'." Hill, however, saw hope for enactment or a unification law ta tne next congress. Air Corps Won't Pay For Broken Glasses TACOMA.
