King Proposed Idea
For Navyto Gel Space
In Pentagon Building
Marshall Endorsed Plan,
Then Knox and Stimson
Eagerly Approved 1t

/ The surprise move to house the
high commands of the War and
Navy Departments under one roof
In the new Pentagon Building in
Arlington originated with Admiral
Ernest j. King. commander in chief
of the fleet and chief of naval OPP
creations, it was learned today.
Between Admiral King and Gen.
George G. Marshall, Army chief of
staff, the original plan was en-
iarged Secretary Knox and Sec
rotary stimson both liked the idea.
Earlier reports, it was said in Off
icial circles, gave the impression that
the War and Navy Secretaries had
thought up the scheme and that
Secretary Knox had announced it
without any too much planning in
advance.
To set the record straight, it was
explained, Admiral King made the
hrst suggestion some time ago. He
sounded out Gen. Marshall on the
idea that the naval intelligence
staff should move to the Pentagon
Building Gen. Marshall Is to trans
fer his own quarters and staff from
the Munitions Building to the Ar
slington site as soon as Offices on
the third floor are ready for &C.
ycupancy.
{ The suggestion that 1t would bring
about closer cooperation and unity
IF the Naval operations staff oc-
scupied the same building caught
Gen. Marshall's fancy as good idea.
He countered with suggestion that
while this was being done Secretary
Knox should also occupy Offices in
1.-THE Pentagon Building, along with
shis public relations bureau.
: The plan was eagerly approved
fby Secretary Stimson, who, as an
hnounced yesterday, had made the
a"generous offer" to his cabinet
colleague.
Offlcials in both departments ad-
.fnitted today that the new arrange
I ment would result in mutual con-
! venience as we'll as closer co-opera-
ton between the Army and Navy
STATS The two secretaries as we'll
as Admiral King and Gen. Marshall
sare called frequently into confer
kences and for the meetings of the
joint board of strategy for which the
new arrangement also will be more
\ convenient.
5. While Secretary Knox and Ad-
nniral King will be on the floor
directly above the Armys high COM
mand. the plans call for the other
Navy units to be accommodated in
offices adjacent to the corresponding
units in the Army.

Chicago Grain

CHICAGO, Nov. A break in
the rye pit, which sent all contracts
to new seasonal lows, dampened
post-election enthusiasm in the
grain market today.
All grains opened on fractional
gains, and wheat was up y cent
at one time, as professional traders
responded to the election returns.
After the first hour, however, the
weakness in rye became acute, and
prices in other pits fell off in SYM
pathy.
The December rye contract sold
under go cents a bushel for the first
time since October, 1941, when the
price was 81 cents. While there was
no immediate news to cause the
break, grain men said demand for
rye is small and supplies are twice
as large as nomal
Rye closed on losses of ~ 2, with
December at $685. after hitting a

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-Cotton rail-
lied today to the best levels in more
than month on broad buying from
trade and commission houses. The
market was partly influenced by
steadiness in outside markets and by
spot prices for raw cotton under the
large Government textile buying
program. On the advance trade
price fixing against the receipt of
spot cotton was the dominant in
fuence aided by buying from New
Orleans.
Trading slackened later and part
of the gains was erased on light
