Major Dispute Denied
On Unification Plans
For All Sea Transport
By John A. Giles

Army and Navy officials are not
In ANY major controversy" in
their negotiations to bring about
Navy responsibility for operation
Of all military sea transporta-
ton, Vice Admiral Robert B. Car
ney, deputy Chief of Naval Opera
tons for Logistics, said today.
The talks have been taking place
over the last seven months and
there have been reports that the
plan had begged down in inter-
service pickering.
Involved is an active Army fleet
of 800 transports. The Navy's
auxiliary" fleet is composed of
229 ships, which includes 27 pas
senger vessels, cargo ships. tank
ers, etc.
There have been some diver
gent views but absolutely no lack
of goodwill by everybody to solve
the problem" said Admiral Car
ney when asked about the report
ed stalemate in the negotiations.
1T is a question of a time-con-
suming study on very complex
matter rather than any major
controversy. he said. 1T is my
personal belief that very sub
stantial arrangement will be fin
ished this fiscal year lending June
80, 1880 and that we will go into
the next fiscal period with the
whole thing wrapped up"
A recommendation of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff that responsibility
for operating all sea transporta-
tion of the armed services be dele
gated to the Navy was approved
last December Is by the late De-
fense Secretary James v. For
restal. But Admiral Carney said
that joint Army-Navy studies on
: the subject actually had been un-
derway for two years. Presently
the Joint Chiefs Joint Military
Committee is working out the
written agreements and charters
for the transfer which then must
be approved by Defense Secretary
johnson.
The Army uses civilian person.
mel to man its transports; the
Navy operates with uniformed
personnel. This is one of the
major problems facing the COM
mittee in its consolidation ar
rangement, Admiral Carney said.
Army Ships Listed.
The Army now owns and oper-
ates 129 transports. 66 of them
passenger ships, So cargo vessels
and S tankers. In addition it has
under charter and is operating
four passenger transports, 1875
cargo vessels. one tanker and one
REFER or refrigeration ship.
Admiral Carney said some of
the other major complexities of
the consolidation plan involved
the accounting for expenditures
of millions of dollars annually un-
der widely divergent fiscal set-ups
of the two services. organizational
structure. personnel management,
and a large number of legal
problems.
He indicated that the Army's
ports of embarkation might not
Evening star., 1949-07-18

be taken over by the Navy. Rather
they will be considered and en-
ployed under the same principles
of consolidation and joint use as
that now being invoked through
out the National Military Estab-
lishment," he said.
The unif1cation Of sea trans
portation will follow the pattern
laid down in the merger of all air
transportation facilities in the
Military Air Transportation Serv-
ice under the Air Force. A similar
plan for transfer of all military
rail transportation to the Army is
being studied.
Wellings to Head System.
It was learned from other
sources that Rear Admiral A. J,
Wellings, Chief of Naval Trans
portation. likely would head up
the combined military sea trans
portation system when it is finally
worked out.
Meanwhile, the Navy has de-
cided to allot cabin class facilities
to some of its enlisted personnel
travelling on its transports when
their dependents are on the same
ships. Heretofore, the dependents
rode cabin class while the hus-
bands were in the troop class
spaces and were not allowed to
join their families except during
certain periods. This has been
brought about by lack of sufficient
cabin space.
Because of the "hardships and
inconvenience" of this arrange
ment the Navy selected the Gen.
William Mitchell, in Pacific Ocean
service, as the transport on which
troop class passengers would be
carried "experimentally in cabin
class" The Army also is expert
menting with this plan.

Notes
By Donald n. Muoridoe

All five games in the third round
Of the championship tourney of
the Washington Chess Divan
were finished, and all were. char
acterized by sharp and lively, if
not always accurate, play.
The shortest game was that be-
tween Oscar Shapiro and L. Rus
sell Chauvenet. The latter played
the Sicilian defense in an unusual
communicating manner, and
opened up the game prematurely
with advances in the center on
his 9th and 9th moves. With all
the lines clear, scope was given
to Shapiro's ingenuity in attack;
on the 17th move his queen
threatened both mate and an ex-
posed bishop, and Chauvenet re-
signed.
Against Hans Berliner's Sicilian
George s. Thomas employed one
Of the newer lines. but did not
fare we'll with it. He obtained in
succession a congested position. a
backward queens pawn and a
pinned knight on O., all of which
Berliner exploited in excellent
style to secure an overwhelming
attacking position. An oversight
by Thomas on move "a fastened
his defeat.
Against D. H. Mugridge's center
counter, Richard S. Cantwell went
In for a rather dubious attacking
line and was already in difficulties
when he dropped a whole piece on
the 9th move. He succeeded in
maintaining a stubborn resistance
until the 25th move, by which
time his king had come under fire.
Harry E. Cimermanis played a
kind of queens Indian defense
against Martin c. Stark, but not
very expertly; Stark got a powerful
position in the center and Cimer-
manis had trouble with knight
offside on the kings wing. On his
18th move Cimermanis sacrificed
the other knight to relieve his diff
flculties, but the compensation
proved quite insufficient and Stark
speedily broke through with an
attack that brought victory on the
33d move.
John R. Rice got strong attack
against Ernest M. Knapp's Slav
defense to the queens gambit and
had much superior game when
he went into an unsound COM
bination on move "a. He came out
a piece down. but still should have
held the ending had he not mis-
takenly offered the exchange of
rocks on move 33. The game was
adjourned after 80 moves, but
Rice resigned without resuming
play. Standings: Mugridge, 80;
Berliner, Shapiro and Stark, 2h-
"; Chauvenet. 81; Knapp, 11a-
IN.
