PACE SIX. Defense ABC's HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON MONDAY. OCT. 31, 194? Here Is Services Unification Setup; Johnson Absolute Boss i The the root t In Br JAMES MARLOW . WAHHINHTON. Oct. 11 Un juarrel between the navy and other armed services ns its In tha unification act. nmffiwi fimt named that act loav miA thn tightened and tough tned It thl year. It ha thla pur pone: To make the armed ervlce work together better aa a team, product better planning save money oa pur chasing equipment, and o on. TraoMe Thla U a brlel explanation of how the act and the trouble grew: Until 1947 the army and navy were completely Independent of each other. The air force wa part of the army. . Each had two heads, military and civilian. Thla way: army, chief of atatt and aecretary of the war de partment; navy, chief of naval op erations and secretary of the navy department. In both case the ci vilian bead were over the military chief. Further, the two secretaries op erated Independently and each wa member of the president' cabi net. Thla meant they could go directly to the president with their problem or complaint against each , other. Change Thl et-up wa changed by the unification act of 1947 and further changed by the revised law passed thl year. This 1 the set-up now: The air force was separated from the army. Now there are three mili tary agencies: the army, navy and air force departments. Each ha It own top military man: army chief of staff, air force chief of staff, and chief of naval operation. And each department has Its own civilian secretary. But power was taken from the secretaries. They no , longer are member of the presi ; denf cabinet I " That's because congres created ' something new: ', L A department of defense. The ' army, navy and air force depart ' menu are aU part of the depart- Bent of defense. ; J. A secretary of defense (Louis Johnson) to head up the whole ' show. He' a member of the presi . denf cabinet He' boss over the ; three civilian secretaries. And those three civilian aecre- tarie cannot carry their complaints ', to the president unless Johnson ap- proves. And they cant go the the ' president over Johnson's head. So he's top man of all. , ' The only one who can overrule him on questions of the army, navy 1 or air force is the president who ' I commander-in-chief. Example Por example: Navy Secretary .Francis B. Matthews may think t Johnson Is wrong In wanting to drop SO ,000 navy men and officers from ' their Jobs, and he may tell Johnson ', so. But if Johnson still says they are dropped, they're dropped. " . Something else wa added by the '.unification act That's the body ; called the Joint chiefs of stall ' (JCS). It's made up of: The army chief of staff (General 3 Lawson Collins): the air force chief of staff (General Hoyt S. Van denberg): and the chief of naval ' r.tinn This lob was held by ! u.ini Tsniix B. Denfeld until President Truman fired him Thurs .' day. , There's a fourth top man in fact the top military man of the t country In the JCS. He's the chairman (General Omar Bradley) . His Job is to act as moderator. He has no vote. " . Final Authority what final authority do the mem- bers of the JCS have? Suppose the army and air torce cnieis uiins we navy strength should be cut down, although the navy chief disagrees. 1 1 that 2 to 1 vote final and Is the ' navy cut down? ' No. say Secretary Johnson. H e told congress the JCS members have final say-so on nothing, that they can only recommend what should be done. He mskes the final decision. The admirals squirmed but were unable to block decision after de cision to cut down navy strength and ambition. Before unification. It had been hi a an lndeDendent agency to do Its own planning, subject only to decision by the president and congress. Finally, unable to do anything un der tha unification law to let what they wanted for the navy, the ad mirals finally protested by maung their feelings public ills Music Going on Air Th fimt of the fall and winter series of music department broad cast will be given by Mills school over Station KFLW Tuesday, at I P-m.
