Navy Lays up Ships In Latest Cut WASHINGTON Wl The Navy says it is laying ud the cruiser Quincy as the first of 50 ships to ue pui into momoaus. Almost simultaneously with this announcement Wednesday, Secre tary ot the Navy Robert B. Ander son said Russia is outbuilding the United States and other North At lantic Treaty Organization (NATO) nations in cruisers, destroyers and other high seas warships. The Navy's budget has not been disclosed, but it is expected to take a substantial gut as part of the new-look program in military ex penditures, featuring more reliance on airpower and economies in other directions. The Navy said the. 13,600-ton Quincy, "the least modern of the Navy's active cruisers" and now at the Long Beach. Calif., navy yard, will be Inactivated soon and that the other ships will be laid up during the next 18 months. No others were named, but there was speculation the four 45,000-ton bat tleships were likely candidates. The U. S. fleet now numbers about 409 combat ships. In a speech Wednesday night to the Wichita Falls, Tex., Chamber of Commerce, Anderson said the "threat posed by the Soviet Union's 350 submarines" Is well known. He continued: "But did you know that the Soviet navy is, next to our own, the largest navy in commission in the world? Did you know that more Soviet cruisers are now being built annually than are being built by all the NATO nations combined ... or that since World War II the Soviet Union has built over 50 large fleet type destroyers as against our own five?" National security will not be Im paired by the laying ud of the U. S. ships, two members of the House Armed Services Committee said.

Strike Vote Plan Rods WASHINGTON tf A poll of the Senate Labor Committee indi cated Thursday practically no sup port for a proposal calling for strike votes among employes who have already gone on strike. Some advocacy of a ballot to take place before a strike could be called was noted, but even that appeared to fall short of the seven committee votes needed to send such a proposition to the floor of the Senate for a vote there. The committee has 13 members. President Eisenhower told his news conference Wednesday he wants Congress to decide the ques tion of when the strike vote should be taken by the government. He said all he had in mind when he recommended in his special Taft Hartley message secret, govern ment-supervised elections in strikes, was the principle.
