There will be some deep thinking 5oday when White House Secretary Charles G. Ross holds his news conference at President Truman's vacation hideaway in Florida.
 Ross arranged plans for a news conference which may be the first of it's kind in history. It will be held 100 feet below the. surface of the ocean.
 Ross, and the men of the Radio and Press who are accompanying MT Truman. will go aboard a sub marine from the Key West Naval oase Then the Presidents Secre- tary will hold forth near the bot tom of the ocean.
 Ross warned in advance that he would have no really big news at the underwater press and radio conference, and while the newsmen may not be deep in thought, at least theyll be deep down in the ocean
 President Truman is not going along. Instead, he planned to con- tinue his swimming and sun-bath- ing at Key West-and to keep on calling the signals by remote con- irol in the Governments battle with John L. Lewis.

 At present the Army is building Q special wig to Walter Reed hos pital at 18th and Dahlia streets in Washington which will exactly dup licate the Navy's.
 This wing is to take care of the President of the United States.
 Simultaneously, the Navy also has a floor of its Bethesda Naval Hospital reserved for the President It is all set to take care of him at any time. However, medical of- ficers have changed in the White House and a Navy doctor isn't in command any more The Army now runs the show.
 Roosevelt, always partial to the Navy, appointed Adm. Ross Mo Intire White House physician. But Truman, who served in the Army selected Brig. Gen Wallace Gra- ham as White House physician
 And of course any Army doctor does not like to practice in a Naval hospital. Therefore the Army Medi- cal Corps, wanting to avoid the humility Of sending the President to a naval hospital, authorized a new wing to the Walter Reed Army
