President Truman, facing the
possibility of another Air Force
Navy controversy, has let the serv-
ices know in advance he intends to
keep Army Gen. Omar Bradley on
for another two years as presiding
officer of the top interservice COM
mand.
Bait if he has moved swiftly to
make that clear, by nominating
Gen. Bradley for reappointment to
another two-year term as chair
man of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,
the President has been more de-
liberate in selecting man who by
succession might follow Gen. Brad
ley In the Craftsmanship two years
hence. A vacancy on the Joint
Chiefs organization exists because
of the death of Admiral Forrest P.
Sherman.
AT the time the National De-
fenSe Act formally established the
joint Chiefs of Staff organization
the military chiefs of the Army,
Navy and Air Force, with a chair
man-there were some who be-
lieved the Craftsmanship should
be rotated among the services.
Gen. Bradley's friends say he was
one of the advocates of that idea
and that moreover he thought the
tenure should be limited to one
term and to general or flag off,
GERS who, upon completing the
term. would have reached retire
ment age.
If that was Gen. Bradley's idea.
it has been accepted neither by
Congress nor Mr.. Truman. The
law Congress passed provides the
chairman shall serve for two
years and be eligible for one re-
appointment, except in time of
war when there would be no lin
itation on reappointments. The
President has used this provision
to renominate Gen. Bradley for
another term. Senate conf1rma-
ton of the appointment is re-
quired and anticipated.
The terms of the chiefs of staff
of the Army and Air Force and
the Chief of Naval Operations are
-four years. Thus the man chosen
to fill the vacancy caused by
Admiral Sherman's death would
Ibe a Joint Chiefs member when
Gen. Bradley's reappointment ex-
pires in 1858.
II a custom of seniority of the
services Ca policy that appears
predicated on tradition and pro-
tocol rather than law were fol-
lowed the next chairman of the
Joint Chiefs would be a Navy
man. However, there would be
nothing to prevent the President
from turning to Air Force Gen.
Hoyt Vandenberg or Army Gen.
]. Lawton Collins-or from going
outside the present membership
for appointment to the chairman

May Affect Air Force Expansion
The Air Force may have keene1
interest in Mr.. Truman's choice
of new Chief of Naval Opera
tions than the Navy. His attitude
and personality can make a diff
ference In the Air Forces decision
to seek expansion beyond the
present 95-goal group.
OF the field of apparent candi-
dates for the post, the man the
Air Force doesn't want most Is
Admiral Arthur Radford. The
present chief of the Pacific Fleet
was to the fore of the Navy
forces which quarreled with the
Air Force over the B-36 bomber
program and over division of war
time missions.
Two other four-star admirals
appeared high on the list of pos
