Unified Command Of
Army, Navy Big Issue;
Pros, Cons Are Given
Second OF Ta0o Articles on a
United Military Command
(By JACK sTINNETT)

WASHINGTON, May 24.-Oppo-
sition to a unified military COM
mand, with single overall chief
of staff for the Army, Navy and
Air, will come in Congress from
those Military and Naval Affairs
Committee members in both cham
bers who will be afraid their senior
ity on those committees will be
jeopardized.
If we had unified command,
it wouldn't be reasonable to sup
pose that the separate committees
for the Army and Navy would be
continued. The alternative would
be a single committee of Military
Affairs in each chamber with sub
committees for Army, Navy and
Air
In the Senate, Sen. Robert r.
Reynolds Military Affairs commit
tee has Is members; and Sen. David
l. Walsh's Naval Affairs commit
tee a like number-more than a
third, in all, of the entire Senate.
In the House, Rep. Andrew j. Mays
Military Affairs Committee has 80
members; and Rep. Carl Wilson's
Naval Affairs Committee 80. Here,
then, are SO members of Congress
who visualize their committee as
signments being shaken up; and If
the unified committees retained
the same number of seats, half OF
them would see their seniority on
those committees vanish.
Other opposition in Congres
could conceivably come from Ad-
ministration supporters for a very
important reason President Roose-
welt. whether he expresses himself
or not, is a Navy man." He was
undersecretary of the Navy in
World War I. His interests since
boyhood have been with the sea
and seafaring men. His collection
of gadgets, relics and mementos in
the White House and Hyde Park
smack heavily of the sea. All his
vacations have been taken on the
sea or at the shore.
1t may be assumed that if the
Navy vigorously opposes unification
any time soon, the President will
string along with his favorite
branch of the armed services as
long as It doesn't jeopardize the
war effort.

should Wendell Willkie be criticized
for stepping out of Commonwealth

holders under Roosevelt who have
stepped into lush utility jobs:
William Hickey, former chief of
the registration division of the

j. P. Morgan.
John Burns, former counsel of
