COLONEL N0YE5 TO KEEP ARMY RANK AS
 ALASKA ROAD CHIEF

Col. John R. Moves, head of the Alaska Road Commission. will be able to keep the Col" in front of his name.
 The colonel has been on loan from the Army engineers to direct work of the road commission since August, 1948, and in April last year the question arose if he could legally keep his Army commission.
 The question finally went into the hands of the comptroller-general last August for decision. and just today the colonel got word of the outcome.
 He may remain in the Army. the opinion said, because he is not hold ing an office. but merely employed. An office-holder may not keep mili- tary rank under the law.
 Colonel Moves was sent here be- cause of his intimate knowledge ot road work, coupled with his ac- ouaintance with Alaska's defense needs-the two being inseparably paired. Since his taking over in ARC headquarters, the roads in Alaska have heightened each sea son to take in not only strategic military needs but to open up new agricultural lands, new mining areas, and winter travel is now ar ordinary thing.

Socialists Boil Over
 On Leopold
Thousands of Workers Pa rade in Brussels = Ab-
 di(ation Demanded
(By Associated Press)

Belgian Socialists wrath against King Leopold boiled over today in Brussels, where 15,000 workers demonstrated against the exiled King who wants to come back to the throne. They carried banners saying "abdication" and chanted death to Leopold
 The Socialist labor unions staged a 24-hour strike and were joined by workers across the nation. The Socialists want Leopold, in exile since he surrendered Belgium to the Germans 10 years ago, to abdi- cate in favor of his son, Baudoin 19.
 Despite police ban against a parade in downtown Brussels the workers marched in force. They stoned street cars manned by some transport workers who did not heed the strike call.
 The Belgian nation is a house divided over the royal question. Ir an advisory referendum Leopold won 5768 percent of the votes. bul this is not deemed sufficient show of confidence in a monarch, the Socialists contend.
 Elder statesman Count Henr Carton De Wiart called a meeting of the Council of State yesterday to try to solve the crisis but tht council found no solution.

The W ashingion Merry -Go Round
iCopyrisht 1880. by Bell Syndicate. Inc By DREW PEARSON

VASHINGTON-The chances ot war with Russia were summed ur the other day by the nations No soldier, Gen. OnNlr Bradley chairman of the joint chiefs oi staff.
 He gave his views behind closed doors to a Senate appropriations subcommittee, but afterward. Sen Elmer Thomas of Oklahoma rushed , out and told reporters that Bradley wasn't worried about war with Russia.
 However, this wasn't what the General said.
 Because this question is so inn portant, this column has carefully checked Bradley's remarks. Anc here is his testimony, just as he gave it off the cuff-supposedly not to be broadcast by headline seeking Senators. Sen. Homer Ferguson, Michigan Republican, started the discussion by inquiring: Generally speaking you are up here supporting $1; billion budget. I gather from tht testimony that you don't think thi: is a hot-war budget"
 No" agreed General Bradley "if I thought there was going te be a hot war, I would be up here asking for $50 billion or $40 bill [ lion"
 Tt obviously isn't peacetimt

HOUSE ARMS BILL READIED;
 TOPS SENATE
Sums Concentrated on Air Defense = All Items -ln-
 creased Over Senate

WASHINGTON, March 24-lR- The House Armed Services Com mittee voted today to authorize $689, 9,058,l81 military construction program. Sponsors said it would greatly strengthen the air defense of the United States.
 The bill, a much amended version of Senate measure, is now ready for House action. The Senate in January passed a military public works bill of less than $500,000,000. During hearings on the Senate bill in the House committee, the Defense Department requested am- endments totaling $187,142,771 for projects described as of highest priority"
 Among the new projects are a number that the Air Force, Army and Navy aye anxious to start building as soon as possible. All relate to air defense.
 The omnibus appropriations bill, now pending in the House, has in it an item of $3O0000,00o for mili- tary public works available in fis- cal 1851, which begins next July 1.
 The Defense Department plans to tap this for projects considered of key importance.
 Later additional appropriations would be sought to carry out the balance of the authorized public works bill, if it is approved by Congress.
 Grant For Air Force In the bill just approved the Air Force was granted the largest authorization-$257, ,975, ,055, an in- crease of S49, ,735,451 over that in the Senate bill.
 The Navy's projects totaled $243,- 542,3o1, an increase of $75,623, 800.
 Army authorizations total $751; j40,S25, stepped up from $89,9o9.- 880.
 In addition the committee au- thorized $l2,439,3O0 for the Army's special weapons project, an increase of $625, ,000.
 Of the overall total, the sum of | S447 ,314,993 is authorized for con- struction within the United States of which S87,800300 is for the Army, 1 s158, ,OO8, 800 for the Navy and S201,- 5O5, 1892 for the Air Force. Military Proposals The military forces propose to spend nearly half, or 29,325, 1888, of the committee-approved total outside the United States. This indicates the plan to build up outside bases, especially in AL l aska.
 The Air Force proposes to build l long range weather and commun1- cation stations and links in the radar fence" as soon as the money ] becomes available.
 It wants to establish three in terceptor stations having pickup range of 1000 to 2,000 miles, that could listen in on far distant com munications. It wants to build a well-guarded cent%l intelligence center.
 The Army and Air Force propose as soon as possible to put $l0O,- 100000 in housing and operational buildings in Alaska. These two ser- vices as well as the Navy want to build storage and repair facil- ities in strategically located spots some of them secret. A S1O0,000,0O0 housing and opera tional building program in Alaska for the Army and Air Force were among items approved today by the House Armed Services Committee as it passed the s689, ,O58,181 urgent military construction bill.
 These two defense branches as well as the Navy, it was revealed, want to build storage and repair facilities in strategically located northern spots-some of them sec ret.
