Billions for Defense
Washington Post)

(WaShlngJon PoSt
 The three-billion- dollar addition to the defense budget called for by Secretary Forrestal would finance of 350000 in the statutory strength Of the armed forces revival of the draft universal military trai Ing and immediate start new aircraft pro- curement Tn broad outline think it is an essential military backstop to American foreign policy. The recommendations represent integrated approach each component suppementing the other Particularly impressive is the 200 striking force detailed by General Bradley.
 There is some disposition to criticize the armed forces for springng these proposals suddenly upon the people. Much of the criticism is unjust fer Che services have been pleading for three years for such measures UNIT without much attention being given them. The coup in Czechoslovakia merely served to arouse popular recognition of the seriousness of the deterioration of American military power Neverthe- less 1t is impossible to avoid the impression that the services themselves have done certain amount of laundering if only for the that they had not agreed among themselves until recently precisely what they needed. For example after MT. For restal had echoed President Trumans request for enactment of seectve service and had also asked increase in authorized strength of the services he unable immediately to present draft legislation and specific figures.
 Aside however from the failure to achieve genuine unifcaon which must be laid at the doorstep of the defense chiefs themselves, there several good req sons for the apparent military disjonedness One is the manner in which military budgets have been pre- sented to Congress Because of pairing by the Bureau of the Budget, they almost never nave represented what the persons actually charged with defense deemed essential This not only has encouraged pad ding; it also has given Congress false picture of the considered opinion of the military men. Further more there has been widespread misunderstanding of the uses to which the current Oblliondollar appro priation has been put If American defense is "hol- low she'll" as has been charged at least part of the reason is that after deducting extensive occupation and recruiting costs relatively little has been left for building up defense establishment Out of the billion Army Air Force appropriation for instance, less than one billion dollars has been available for meeting Army payrolls well as planning all new developments.
 This does not that the military should now be handed blank check There must be careful scrutiny of expenditures especially since the present request undoubtedly represents only first instalment in military expansion The burden of justification is primarily task for the defense chiefs. But the necessity for reinvgorating our military arm is so clear that every reasonable request the armed forces make is certain to have sympathetic consideration

TOO MANY CHARITIES

Although not specified in the constitution, the right to ask neighbos for money for charitable purposes is something rather fundamental A good many of the fine institutions that make America great country are supported, not by government and not by the profit motive, but by the contributions o individual citizens in great numbers
 Nobody wants to interfere with this pattern of cooperative charitable effort but somebody going to have to interfere to limited degree at least if the whole structure of private giving is not to collapse
 Juneau is faced with many appeals for charity With rare exceptions they will be wholly worthy projects If the demands increase however the typical citizen will be inclined to pull his shell and ignore them all The most necessary philanthropic enterprises will suffer- along with those marginal projects of dubious value
 Theoretically, the problem was solved in some communities many years ago by the Community Chest The Chest however, has not expanded with the pro- Iteration of good causes It could not conceivably spread out to cover all these charities
 The immediate answer may be a tighter enforce ment of the licensing requirements discouragng all public appeals which inefficiently managed or which have no legitimate for public appeal in this particular community. A further answer may possibly be found in q reexamination of the Con- munity Chest with an eye to making it cover some what broader field There is still another possibility
 system of publicity by which every newspaper reader can tell at a glance what drives at the moment and what share of his contribution actually will go to the charity after campaign expenses are met
 The problem is important one, for the pro- lection of the everyday citizen who cannot make his own investigation of every chalN9be appeal. It is important aso to protect the very important ma for charities which will suffer when the competition

FAIRBANKS WOMAN HEARS OF BIG GIFT; HAS TROUBLES, TOO

From a led in St. Joseph's hospi- tai yesterday afternoon, Josephine Chamlis dreamed about the things she could do with $132,O00, says the Fairbanks News-Miner of April G..
 What makes Mrs. Chamlis dream different from most is that she is going to have her chance.
 For the Fairbanks woman, who had been informed about an inherit ance two weeks ago, just last Satur- day received confirmation that she was ore of the heirs of great uncle, James Price. There are three other heirs. and each one, according to the San Francisco law firm that is hand ling the estate, will receive approxi- mately $132000 .. . and that's after taxes.
 But Mrs. Chamlis' luck has not been all good recently. Shortly after she received the first letter on the inheritance she slipped on some ice and broke her ankle.
 Then last Thursday, while going up stairs on the crutcheS neces- sitated by the ankle injury, pro truding bolt on a crutch caught on her coat and she lost her balance. The resulting fall ended in broken arm and Mrs. Chamlis ended in St. Joseph's Hospital.
 I'm not going to do like ioJs Of people take the money and run Outside" the Fairbanks woman said. T have homestead at 14-Mile that I'm going to keep right on develo- ping, and I've made inquiries about some property just outside of Fair banks. might build a roadhouse there not nightclub ,. hut a restaurant with accommodations for tourists"
 There's one thing however I'm going to do before I buy anything, Half of the money is going in trust for my daughter Rosemary who is now IT. I'm going to make sure she has things easier than I've had them"
 Mrs. Chamlis may have to wait a while for the money, the attorneys said, as the fourth heir has not yet been located. But they assured her there was no doubt but that she would receive it.
 The Fairbanks woman saw her great uncle only once, and that was 24 or 9 years ago. No one in her family realized that he was wealthy.
 I've always managed to get along so far, and guess I can wait another couple of months" she said.

soFT-soAPING TABER

After failing with Vinson, For restal next tried to sott-soap nickle nursing Appropriations Chairman Taber who usually can't see beyond a dollar sign. Torres tal's arithmetic easily convinced Taber that TO air groups would cost money, and he promptly started to prune down the air force appropria- tions bill. The S922, 100000 neces- sary for the 7o-group program was omitted.
 Scarcely had Taber reported the bill out of committee. however, than Vinson called in Johnson and Kilday.
 "Forrestal has pulled the rug out from under the Air Force" he announced. Now we'll have to pull the rug out from under Forrestal. We've got the votes, but Forrestal has Taber. All we have to do is get Taber."
 llcl ocliiC cAlNlltOOlA AlloOAl OAt" tonholed Taber, If Taber would support a 7O-group air force, Vim son said that he would back an ecCncmy measure to trim the pro- curement costs by Sl00000,000 This could be done by reinvoking the wartime clause which gave the Air Force authority to renegotiate pro- fits Tn other words, if manu- facturer was able to produce cheaper plane than estimated, the Air Force could re-examine the contract and cut excess profits.
 Taber called in Symington, asked whether he could get along on S822 100000 for 70 groups. The youthful Air Secretary, however, said that 1922 100000 was the rock bottom figure. Next morning Vim son himself called Symington. des- cribed the plan to renegotiate pro- fits. Symington then agreed to do his utmost to keep within the S822 100000 figure.
 So an amendment was offered, raising the plane procurement fund by $822 ,o00,0o for a 7O-group Air Force.
 Believe it or not, but the author Of the amendment was Taber, himself.
 Note While the House was pass ing the 70-group Air Force by 343-to-5 vote, President Truman publicly rebuked Symington for up- ping the administration 55-group program Ironically, Truman thus climbed into the same political bed with Henry Wallacites Vito Mar cantonio.

Don't Be Alarmed
Seattle Times

(SeattIe IlmeSJ
 Some neadway is being made in Congress toward reducing Federal expenditures. The House appro- pratons bill for the Department of Justice State and Commerce and for the judiciary is about 84 and half million dollars below the Presidents recommended tions and more than 128 and half million dollars below the appropriations for those departments for 1948 This was the third 1949 appropriations bill passed by the House but the first to show reductions below 1948 levels.
 Now the bill goes before the Senate, the clamor will begin restore expenditures the House has elimi- mated or trimmed At this point the public has sponsiby. If the American people really want of government-and taxes-cut where they can be cut they will refrain from joining the hue and cry to undo the good work the House has done

Y, next door to the Congressional district of Syming- tons father in-law, COP. Jim Wadsworth of Geneseo, N. Y. Nevertheless Andrews did no. want Symingten to talk.
 Wait a minute" snorted Vim son We don't want any censor ship
 The Secretary for Air, he claim ed, had a right to say what he " shed Finally Andrews gave in. As result Symington was able to deliver his sensational warning that Russia is building planes 12 times faster than the USA.
 This enraged Symington's boss, Secretary of Defense Forrestal. Actually Forrestal has taken sides with the admirals and did his best to sabotage Symington's testimony.
 First he sent an appeal to Vim son. urging him to come over to his office in the Pentagon Build ing at once, They had been close allies in fighting for q powerful, two-ocean navy. and Forrestal hop ed to appeal to Vinson's old navy loyalty.
 But the leathery Georgian was Ill no mood to hack down He went to see Forrestal, but he brought along two close friends Congressmen Lyndon Johnson and Paul Kilday, both Texas Democrats, Johnson had served in the navy during the war and helped to straighten out army navy riyalries
 Forfestal was cordial but insis- tent Referring to the Congress men as "air seamen," he complain cd that they had gone back or him, urged that they delay their proposal for a 7o-group air force until he got report from the joint chiefs ot staff.
 We have been getting reports on this for three years snapped Vinson. He reminded Forrestal that l8 months ago, General Eisen- newer had testified that the Air Force should not be allowed to fall hsloN 70 sroap-.

ly 20 per cent higher than the pre-
vious 1946 peak.
The bureau said there may be
some improvement this year over
last in both the farm labor supply
and the general skill Of workers, but
farm wage rates will continue high.
New farm machinery plants, COM
ing into full production, should al
leviate the general labor situation
The bureau said seed prices will
vary widely by areas. Higher prices
are reported for red clover, Ladino
clover, Korean lespedeza, crested
wheat grass. corn, rapeseed and a
few seed grains. Lower prices are
being asked for alfalfa, timothy
Kentucky bluegrass. orchard grass,
white clover, bronze grass and rye
grass.
Fertilizer prices are higher than
year ago. Nitrogen and potash
supplies are likely to be shorter than
current demand.
The bureau said supplies Of farm
building materials, insecticides and
| fungicides and some other materials
have been improved and should be
easier to get than last year.
Farm rentals, land values and
farm real estate taxes have con-
| tinued to rise.
Farmers should realize" the bu-
