ForresfaI Office Awaits
Hoover's Unifieafion Data

Any proposal from the. National
Defense Establishment for changes
Id the unification act will await a re-
port from former President Hoovers
governmental reorganization COM
mission, the Office of Secretary OF
Defense Forrestal said yesterday.
MIR. Hoover has appointed Ferdi-
nand Eberstadt, of New York, as
head of a committee to study the
military establishment.
Congressional critics have attacked.
the unification set-up, charging that
its sole accomplishment has been
to set up an independent Air Force.
Senator Morse, Republican of
Oregon, has introduced a bill to
create more centralized authority
via an overall defense secretary,
one chief of staff, and assistant Sec
retaries for the Army, Navy and Air
Force.

tissue is fuzzy" from legal point
/ of view. When one authority wa!
pressed for a definition of an Eek
ecutive agreement" for instance, hi
could only say the term applied tt
all international acts of the United
States Government which are moi
submitted for advice and consent
to the Senate"
Avoid Necessity of Vote.
The reason for the rising popu.
larity of these agreements, as in
struments of our international re-
lations, is obvious They get around
the often crippling necessity of the
two thirds Senate vote. Where they
require an appropriation or some
other legislative implementation to
make them effective, this can be
secured through a joint resolution
of both houses of Congress, backed
by simple majority.
Where, as in the case of this west
German agreement, no appropriation
or other congressional action is re-
quired to enable the executive
branch of the Government to carry
out their terms, they do not have
to be submitted to Congress at all.
Technically, therefore, in case
such as this one, there is nothing
Congress can do to force the admin
istration to submit the agreement to
it for approval. This would be true
even if both houses of Congress were
of the unanimous opinion that the
matter should come to them. AS
long as the agreement is one which
the administration can carry out on
it's without having to ask Con-
gress for additional money or addi-
tional powers to do it-there is no
mechanism by which Congress can
challenge the executive decision.
This is, however, a technical power
which is not likely to be exercised
often by the executive branch. There
are always politics, of course, and
the need for maintaining speaking
relations between the executive and
legislative branches of the govern
ment. Congress would not find it
hard to retaliate against an execu-
tive who ignored it's wishes in mat
ter of major Importance and concern
Nevertheless, the executive under
our system has more latitude in
deciding whether to submit diplo-
matte arrangement to Congress for

Accord on Germany, Without Senate Approval,
Revives Old Question of Treaty Authority
Taft Group Believes
Vote Was Desirable,
Challenge Unlikely
By NewboId Noyes, Jr.

There is an under the surface
dispute in progress here as to
whether the six-power agreement
on the setting up of a provisional
government of Western Germany,
announced last Monday, has or
hasn't the official approval of the
United States Government
Secretary of State Marshall says
| it has. But a number of Congress
members, under the influential lead
ership of Senator Taft, Republican
of Ohio, are taking the view that
Gen. Marshall cannot grant this
approval himself-that it can only
come from two-thirds of the Sen
ate
| The State Department considers
this London decision-the most i'm
portant taken on Germany since
the end of the warts an executive
agreement, and that it need not be
submitted to Congress at all. Sem
ator Taft thinks otherwise.
This agreement is of major i'm
portance, he told a reporter last
week. 1T is practically part Of a
peace treaty with Germany and,
from present indications, will be
effective for number of years. 1t
certainly should be submitted Ito
the Senate) as treaty"
Unsettled for 160 Years.
The constitutional question which
underlies the dispute between Gen.
Marshall and Senator Taft has been
kicking around now for about 100
years. 1t has never yet been an
sWered. The Constitution clearly
states that a treaty undertaken by
our Government is effective and
binding only when it has been ap-
proved in the Senate by two
thirds vote. 1t does not say what a
treaty is. 1t does not specify that
all agreements between our Govern
ment and governments abroad must
be in treaty form. Since George
WaShingtons first administration, it
has been assumed, therefore, that
the Government has tacit constitu-
tional authority to make "agree-
ments" with foreign powers-agree-
ments which are not treaties, but
which are no less binding on the
governments concerned.
At first these executive agree
ments" we're applied only to rel
atively minor or temporary ar
rangements. But their scope has
gradually widened over the years
until today there is no recognized
distinction between what can be
dealt with in a treaty and what can
be dealt with in an executive agree
ment.
The courts have been extremely
reluctant to lay down limitations
on the power of the executive to
make these agreements. The whole
