Army 5 Merger Called
Inferior 10 Nays
National Security Idea
By the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
The Navy Department argued to-
day that the Army plan for merg-
ing the armed forces under q single
civilian cabinet member Is inferior
to the Nays alternative plan for
national security"
The Navy plan was submitted to
the Senate Military Affairs Com
mittee in an elaborate brochure,
which summarized Army proposals
on comparable points. The COM
mittee, which was not In session
today, will consider the document
when next 1t meets.
Rear Admiral Thomas II. Rob-
bins. jr., declared the broad reor-
ganization OF national defense UNI
der this security plan-with Army
and Navy still separate-"could save
dollars where, comparatively. the
Army plan might save pennies"
Compares Points.
The former commander of the
carrier Lexington, in statement
which accompanied the Navy bro
chure, made these comments:
/. The Army would reduce the
number of cabinet members by one
and provide no new assistance for
the President.
The Navy would provide him with
National Security Council, to deal
with foreign and military policies,
and National Security Resources
Board, to handle domestic and
economic matters.
2. The Army would weaken civil
ian control of the military establish
ments by reducing the number of
civilian executives.
The Navy would strengthen civil
ian control by creating new policy
making agencies.
3. The Army would provide no
plan for migrating foreign and
military policies.
The Navy would accomplish this
through the National Security
Council composed of the President,
Secretary of State and Secretaries
Of the military departments.
4. The Army has no proposal to
integrate a military program and
civilian economy.
migration Provided.
The Nays National Security Re-
sources Board would do so by bring
ing together such functions as those
Of the War Production Board, War
Manpower Commission and ONCE
Of Defense Transportation.
S. The Army would leave CO.
ordination Of procurement and sup
ply to an assistant secretary for
procurement and industrial mobi-
lization, and q military ofiicer-the
director of common supply and
disqualification.
The Navy would create a Military
Munitions Board, consisting of a
high civilian" and representatives
Of each military department, which
would coordinate plans OF the joint
chiefs Of staff and policies Of the
National Security Resources Board.
6. The Army plan offers no means
Of co-ordinating intelligence.
The Navy would set up q central
intelligence agency to serve all Gov
eminent departments.

A Ford proposal, rejected by the
union rs "unrealistic," would have
assessed the union S. day for each
member participating in unsanc-
toned work interruptions.
But as the union hopefully went
into conference with Ford officials,
its relations with General Motors
dipped to a new low. George F.

urer, said the corporation informed
him yesterday that local agreements

Meanwhile, financial support for
the 175,000 GIN strikers appeared
forthcoming from at least three
sources.

Preview Of Program.
Secretary Byrnes made 1t clear at
q news conference yesterday that
the subjects to be discussed at Mos
COW will not be agreed on formally
until Mr.. Molotov. Mr.. Bevin and he
get together. But from his own COM
ments and from the list of his ad-
visers this preview Of the Moscow
agenda emerged:
Il. Atomic energy-Dr. James B.
Conant, president of Harvard Uni
versity and adviser on atomic prob
lens, will accompany Mr.. Byrnes
In the Secretary's view the need for
q Big Three understanding on this
whole subject has top priority.
2. Peace conference.-the. Byrnes
intends to revive his compromise
proposal, first offered at the London
= Foreign Ministers Council meeting
in September. This plan called for
preliminary Big Three study of
peace treaties for Europe-within
the framework of the Five-power
Foreign Ministers Council-to be
followed by a general peace confer
ence. He said that at the moment
nothing is more essential than to
restore, stalled peacemaking ma

3. Japan Some diplomatic au-

powers. Secretary Byrnes is taking

4. Balkans-A report from Pub
Usher Mark Ethridge on the extent
Of Soviet domination of the govern
ments of Romania and Bulgaria is
being taken to Moscow. Mr.. Byrnes
said he had decided not to publish
the report but to take it along for
the possible basis of an approach to
Mr.. Molotov on broadening political
representation of the two Balkan
governments. His adviser on this
problem will be H. Freeman Mat
thews, State Department European
chief who already is in Europe.
S. Iran-Mr. Byrnes has ordered
to Moscow from the American En-
bassy at Teheran the second secre-
tary, John D. Jernegan, to advise
him on the current Iranian situa-
ton. Presumably the Secretary
will go along with British pro-
posal for co-ordinated withdrawal OF
Russian and British troops from
Iran as soon as possible. London
proposed this to Moscow after the
Kremlin rejected an American sug-
gestion that they all get out by
January l.
3. China-Mr. Vincent will serve
as the adviser on Eastern Asia prob
lens as well as those of Japan. The
main problem appears to be for the
powers to come to an understand

Ford Co. of Canada
Rejects Negotiation

WINDSOR, Ont, Dec. IL (P.-
The Ford Motor Co. of Canada an
nounced today it had rejected a
proposal of the CLIO United Auto
mobile Workers of America to ne
gotiate and arbitrate all differences
in the union security strike that
shut down the plant September IL
The proposal of Local Union 200
submitted to the company last Fri
day, asked that arbitration to end
the strike be started on the union
security issue and suggested that q
decision be given within "a hours oil
the opening of negotiations. 1t also
proposed that the 10000 involved
remain on strike while the issue was
under arbitration.
In rejecting the offer, the company
announced it had forwarded its
views to Labor Minister Humphrey
Mitchell December II to allow time
for the minister to receive the COM
munication before public an
nouncement was made.
The company called the union
proposal impracticable and added
that it preferred to have the strike
end while points in dispute were
negotiated.
