forces might have to be increased
beyond the present goal of $780,
600 men, no matter what happens
in Korea. Strategic and military
studies are under way but final
decisions have not yet been made
he reported.
"We are reviewing our imme-
diate goals for military strength
and it is quite possible we shall
have to raise them in several i'm
portant respects" Mr.. Truman
stated, in forecasting a $50 bill
lion increase in the annual mill
tary spending rate during the
coming year.
He put upon Congress the main
present responsibility to assure
success of a many-sided but
closely-lin program to stabilize
the national economy and give
economic, political and moral
strength" to the free world.
Asks $40 Billion Revenue.
1--WE now are in a position
where, if Congress enacts ade-
quate legislation, we can continue
to enlarge our defense efforts. to
expand our production capacity,
and to hold imitation in check, y
he declared. "I emphasize that our
success IN these matters will de-
pend IN a series of legislative
measures which the Congress now
is considering. If Congress enacts
sound and strong legislation, as !
earnestly hope it will. we can
achieve our goals"
Mr.. Truman did not specifically
mention major changes or criti-
cism, which the Senate or House
or congressional committees have
made in working on economic
controls legislation, the tax in
crease bill, the $S.5 billion foreign
economic and military aid pro-
gram, ana similar measures.
But he repeated his major re-
quests, including those for a
$40 billion INCREASING bill
which the House has reduced to
$7.2 billion, and for extension of
the Defense Production Act with
far stronger powers than either
House or Senate has voted.
Accompanying his 23-page re-
port was a printed report of more
than $50 pages submitted to him
by the Council of Economic Ad-
visers. His comments applied par
ticularly to economic developments
during the first six months of this
year. They covered, however, a
far wider general range of eco
nomic and defense mobilization
policy.
Pull i'm Opposite Direction.
He warned that 1--WE must avoid
shifting from one extreme of policy
to another with every new de-
velopment, either national or
international, when such develop
ments do not alter the funda-
mental situation" He recalled that
"some extremists in economic and
military affairs" demanded a
1O-million man military force and
a $100 billion budget Immediately
after the Korean outbreak last
year. Those extremists, he said
also urged freezing the entire
economy Gin a straightjacket of
controls more extensive than any,

death at his Naples hotel came
on the eve of his return to Ameri-

Played Major Unification Role.
Celebrated as much for his work
in armed forces unification as for
his fighting prowess, Admiral
Sherman, who was 81, died at
noon after suffering two heart at
tacks.
He had completed talks last
week with Generalissimo Fran
cisco Franco of Spain and, as fur
ther testimony to his highly re-
Igarded diplomatic ability, was
reported to have worked out plans
for setting up United States naval
and air bases in Spain.
A four-engine American plane
will take off from Naples at 4 am.
tomorrow bearing the admiral's
body to Washington, where he
became chief of operations in
December. 1949. The plane is ex-
pected to arrive here Wednesday
afternoon after refueling in the
Azores.
The body will be taken to
Naples airport after simple serv-
ices on the deck of the American
warship Mount Olympus, an
chored in the Bay of Naples.
Today, four United States des-
troyers moved alongside the war
ship for the services, their crews
lat attention along the rails.
Body May Lie in State.
The Navy was drawing up fu-
neral plans here which may in
clude period of lying in state at
Washington Cathedral. The plans
are those reserved for 1ve-star
officers, and call for a funeral pro-
cession from the Cathedral to
Arlington Cemetery.
Should Mrs. Sherman approve
of the arrangements, the entire
program may continue for several
days.
The death of the six-foot New
Englander was as unexpected as
| it was shocking. He appeared
hale and hearty, but tired, at the
conclusion of his weeks Euro
pean tour.
Saturday night he and Mrs.
Sherman had dined at Pompeii
and attended an open air opera
performance. Shortly after awak-
Iening yesterday, he suffered the
first heart attack. A doctor was
called and he appeared to rally.
The fatal attack occurred Just
after noon.
Successor to Be Discussed.
Legislative leaders who saw
the President today said that he
expressed his sorrow at the death
of Admiral Sherman, Senator
MacFarland of Arizona saying
that "the President is despond-
ent as are all of us, over the
loss of the admiral"
Senator MacFarland said the
President gave his leaders a
summary of the fine work" the
admiral had done on his last
assignment.
President Truman will see re-
firing Navy Secretary Francis P.
Matthews this afternoon and it
is assumed that the question Of
successor to Admiral Sherman
will be discussed.
Admiral Sherman looked and
acted like an admiral. He was i'm

The color television controversy
today was in the hands Of the
Supreme Court for decision.
On the outcome will depend the
kind Of sets the public will buy
for this new field of education and
entertainment.
The Supreme Court may decide
to favor the system of the Radio
Corp. of America. which employs
a tri-color electronic tube. 1t
may back the Federal Communi-
cations Commissions approval of
1.-THE Columbia Broadcasting Sys-
tenn plan involving use of me-
Ichanical color wheel. Or it may
send the whole case back, either
to the special three Judge District
Court in Chicago or to the FEC
for further study.
A decision is expected by June,
when the court will recess for the
summer.
Solicitor General Philip B. PERL
man told the court yesterday that
the most important thing in the
case to him is that under RCA's
system not single receiving set
now in use can get color broad
IcaSts.
Warns of ObsOlescence.
That's what they're trying to
conceal" he told the tribunal.
He charged that RCA, manu-
facturer OF radio and TV receiv-
ing sets, wants to get so million
sets in the hands of the public
and then, if it's own system pre-
walls, "the sets will become obso-
Ilete overnight"
Mr.. Perlman asked the court
to uphold the FEC decision IA
voring CHS. Mr.. Perlman dis
sented from an observation of
Justice Jackson that the lower
court, in effect, said there was no
need to decide the case, because
that would be done by the Su-
preme Court.
Mr.. Perlman insisted that the
District Court had given plenty
OF time and study to the case.
That tribunal, by a two-to-one
decision, also favored CHS and
dismissed the RCA complaint.
RCA then asked the Supreme
Court to intercede, contending the
FEC failed to get the whole story
There never has been a mat
ter before the FEC that has been
given such earnest, complete
study that has been given this

particular problem" Mr.. Perlman
told the Supreme Court.
He pointed out that all seven
commission members found that
CHS met the standards for color
TV. and all seven agreed that the
system proposed by RCA was un-
satisfactory. Commission men,
bers again occupied front seats
in the courts spectators section
yesterday and listened to the
arguments.
MI. Perlman said 100000 tele-
vision sets are being produced
each month and that the longer
the final decision is delayed, the
more difficult will be transition
from black and white to color.
He told the tribunal that "RCA
has a commanding position in
this field" for it also manufac-
lures sets, which CHS does not.
He explained that everybody in
the television field pays tribute
to RCA because of patent license
fees.
The Solicitor General contended
that the FEC considered both the
report of a committee of scien-
lists, headed by DR.. E. U. Con-
don, director of the Bureau of
Standards, and RCA's own prog
ress report. This is contrary to
the RCA position. which contends
the FEC did not study them.
Only Three Systems.
Mr.. Perlman said only one of
the three color TV systems
those of CHS, RCA and Color
Television. Inc.-can be used and
that the FEC found that the CHS
system is the only satisfactory
one.
He declared the Supreme Court
must accept the FEC decision. un-

CHS Attorney Samuel I. Rosen-
man. concluding his argument
yesterday, told the court RCA
promised to have, by June 80. a
workable system which 1t had said
it had in 1949.
RCA Counsel John T. Cahill. in
reouttal. said RCA had promised
the commission it would do its
best to manufacture a multiple
receiver, capable of receiving both
RCA and CHS color systems. He
said a diagram of such receiver
was shown to the commission. Mr.

Young Farmers Can
Aid Defense Effort
CONTINUED from nrnr nnn.,

With per capita vegetable con-
sumption now more than 10 per
cent above pre-war levels, and our
population steadily increasing, it's
easy to see the value of such a pro-
gram" he said.
Stevens, who serves as the asso-
ciatiOn's state chairman, said all
Delaware farm youths from 12
through 21 are eligible to compete
in this contest, for which A. & p.
Food Stores annually provide So
600 in cash agricultural scholar
ships. Actually" he explained.
besides getting fine training in
vegetable growing and selling and
an opportunity to win one of more
than 200 awards this contest offers,
contestants will aid defense efforts
in two ways.
First of all, the crops from the
plot each contestant must plant,
cultivate, harvest and market in
order to compete in this event, will
add to our supply of healthy, nutri-
tious foods. In addition, adults who
learn of the fine results these bows
and girls achieve through the use
OF modern, scientific methods. will
be encouraged to adopt similar
practices. The result can only be
a bigger and better vegetable crop
throughout the nation"
Any young gardener may enroll
in the NJVGA's production -market-
ing contest by contracting All Club
leaders, county agents, instructors
in vocational agriculture or num-
erous other farm youth leaders who
are cooperating with the associa-
ton in enrolling members. Youths
also may join by writing directly
to Stevens at the University of Del
aware, Newark. Stevens also ex-
planned that Delaware youths TAX
ing part in the states Junior To-
matO Club project may be able to
use their tomato gardens for this
contest.
In addition to the production
marketing contest, the 1851 pro-
gram will include the annual dem
contest, in which indi-
viduals or teams compete in dem
onstrating new methods of plant

pairing vegetables. Journeys to the
