Poinciana To Act; Board
Advised Keeping Project

b Indignation continued to soar
today among Poinciana residents
at the possibility of the Navy
taking over the housing project
and there is little question that
the matter will be taken to
Washington by a Poinciana COM
mittee if developments warrant.
Although The Citizen has
been informed from an authori-
tative source that the Navy is
considering some action regard
ing the project, no definite word
has yet been released by the
service.
That Poinciana residents will
appeal to the Key West Hous-
ing Authority is highly likely,
as is the possibility of their car
rying the case to Washington if
no satisfaction is obtained here,
In the meantime Wallace B.
Kirke, director of the local
housing authority, disclaimed
any knowledge of even an offer
of the project to the Navy, as
sorting that he had nothing to go
on other than rumor.
This is all out of the clear air,
so far as I am concerned" he
said. Il called the Atlanta Of
flee this morning for verification
and that office has no knowledge
of the matter. 1t seems odd that
the project would be offered the
Navy without first contracting this
office"
Mr.. Kirke emphasized that the
local authority 'had planned to
have the Poinciana project as an
integral part of Key Vests pos
war housing"
'In fact" he added, "all the
maintenance equipment, appara-
tus and buildings are on that
project, 1t would hamper our en-
tire housing plans to lose it,
He said that "the Key West
Authority recommended the re-
tention of the Poinciana project
in the final Key West postwar
housing plan and it is so recorded
on file in Washington"

GRIPPE BOARD FOR ERASING
 ARMY CASTE
Narrowed Gap Between Ranks Called for-Bet-
 fer Officer Training

WASHINGTON, May 27.-The Army's CT Gripe Board recon mended today that the very terms officer" and enlisted man. be abolished as one step to narrow the official and social gap between 1 them.
 1 Reporting to Secretary of War Patterson, on it's sitting of postwar complaints, the inquiry group head cd by It. Gen James H. Doolittle proposed a revision of existing diff ference in pay, promotion, furloughs decorations and food. It called toe 1 for new measures aimed at raising the standard of leadership in the army.
 i All Just Soldiers"
 But the big break with tradition came in the proposal that all mill itary personnel be referred to mere ly as soldiers"
 Abolition of the hand salute ex- cept on army posts and in overseas occupied areas, and wiping out any rules or customs which make rank barrier to social associations were among other recommendations made by the Board, composed ex- clusively of veterans.
 The six-man board was named by Patterson in March, following demonstrations overseas by men i'm patient to return to civilian life. It heard 42 witnesses and examined more than 1000 letters, mostly crit ical of the the army
 The Boards own criticisms were tempered with the assertion that the army, in meeting problems of a 4O-fold wartime expansion, did a truly magnificent job" and there were guarded indications that the War Department was not upset by the findings.
 Some Steps Already Taken
 Patterson announced that some steps already have been taken" to remedy problems set out in the re- port, but he noted that Congression- al approval and appropriations would be required to carry out some of the suggestions.
 The Board ascribed poor relation ships between commissioned and enlisted personnel to two main fac tors: l. "Undeniably poor leader ship on the part of small per oentage of those in positions ot responsibility and 2. "A system that permits and encourages wide official and social gap" between officers and men.
 To improve officer leadership, the Board recommended specifically that previous military training = preferably one year in the ranks i he required of all aprointees, except technicians not placed in command positions.
