Proposal 10 Put Army
lover Guard Recalled
AT White House Order
By John A. Giles

The mystery surrounding a Ma
tional Defense Establishment ere
port which is said to recommend
placing the National Guard exclu-
sively under control of the Army
was deepened yesterday when it
was learned the White House was
responsible for the reports sudden
but temporary recall.
Secretary of Defense Forrestal re-
called the report on Friday and
then, later in the day, reinstated
it. 1t is scheduled to be made
public Wednesday.
1t was learned yesterday that
original distribution of the report
followed a go-ahead signal from the
White House. But, it also was
learned, the White House then sud-
denly asked that the report be de-
layed
Regarded as Politically Hot.
The reason behind the delay and
the subsequent second green light
was not made clear.
The report is regarded as being
potentially hot from a political
point of view, especially in an cleo
ton year.
The Guard now is controlled by
the States and may be mustered
into Federal service only when Con-
gress formally declares National
emergency. In addition to recon-.
mending that the control of the
Guard be assigned to the Army, it
is understood also the report recon-
mends a merger of the Guard and
the Reserve.
The National Guard Association
has strenuously opposed any merger
move with the more numerous Re-
serve.

Maj. Gen. Ellard A. Walsh, as
ISOLATION president, has charged the
proposed merger is grab for

Guard association, has stated fatty
the Guard would not be amalga-
mated"
