Truman Reiteraies
Desire for Peace as

ABB EEN PROVIN
GROUND. Md. Feb. 17.-Presi-
dent Truman today saw the grow
ing might of the armed forces
translated into the guns and tanks
and other vital cogs Of a power
full war machine. But he empha-
sized anew, that in building
strength. this Nation seeks only a
peaceful world.
In a crowded five-hour trip over
the vast 78,000-acre ordnance ex-
peirmental center here, the Presi-
dent got closeup view of some
Of the weapons being put to the
test in Korea. He saw other
equipment that is moving from
the blueprint stage toward the
production line. and then stood
by for the brief ceremony at which
the Army took all the wraps off
of its new TAI light-gun tank.
This tank was formally christened
the Walker Bulldog" in honor
Of Gen. Walton Walker, late COM
mander Of the 9th Army, who was
killed in an accident in Korea.
The President told again of his
hopes for peace in a brief talk
after he had lunch in the en-
listed mems mess, midway in his
inspection tour-carrying his own
tray through the chow line, in
cidentally.
No Reference to Stain Blast.
There was no reference what
ever to the Stain blast Friday,
when the Russian leader charged
that this country was leading
the United Nations toward war
and disintegration along "the in
glorious road Of the <League OF
Nations.
Expressing satisfaction with his
visit here. the President said he
hoped it had been equally "edu-
cational' for those who had ac-
companied him, then added:

O'Conor Subcommittee
Urges Revision of Entire
FinoncioI Structure

A Senate Executive Expendi.
lures subcommittee last night
scored the United Nations fol
wastefulnesS and duplication, but
noted that the international Or
ganization had more than justified
its existence.
The report was released by the
five-man group, headed by Sem
ator O'Conor. Democrat, of Mary
land, after a three-year study of
relations with the U. N.
The subcommittee found fault
with IL different types of ''exces-
sive and unwarranted" allowances
granted to U. N. employees in ad-
dition to take-home pay, and de-
manded that the salary. allow
ance and leave system be put on
a ''more economical and realistic
basis"
Staff Costs Held Excessive.
Heading the list of salaries was
the $4,000 net paid Secretary
General Trygve Lie. The subcom-
mittee did not criticize that salary
but said staff costs were excessive
1t pointed out that last year, out
of a total expenditure of $44.-
$40, 1888, the U. N. paid out $685.
094 $40 in staff costs.
"At present, the various allow
ances paid to staff members OF
the U.N. and the specialized agen-
cies bring their already high sal
aries considerably out of line with
those paid to United States ma
tionals and nationals of other
countries from similar work." the
committee reported.
The group learned that a total
of 9,790 persons was employed by
the U. N. and its 10 agencies. but
said:
Outstanding men and women
are definitely needed. However
it hardly seems in order to Offer
them such extraordinary induce
ments in view of the fact thei,
basic salaries are clearly ade-
quate."
U. s. Contributed $424 Million.
During the past five years the
United States has contributed
about $424 million of the 1857
million spent by the U. N. and an
additional $12 million dollars for
attendance at meetings and spe-
cial assignments. The present
fiscal year will cost the United
States $120 million more.
The cost of the U. N. has stead
lily gone upward, from $28,310, ,107
in l945 to more than 1925 million
last year. The United States share
of the overhead will amount to

Services Face Loss
As EnIistments Start
Expiring in July
Bor to Second Extension
Moy Cut Active Duty
For Many Reservists
By George Beveridee

ACLlVe OuGy Clmc OF thousands
of enlisted reservists probably
will be cut short or they will not
be called into uniform at all be-
cause their reserve enlistments
are due to expire after next July,
a check of the armed forces re-
vealed last night.
Summer of 1851 will be the first
time the question of expiring en-
listments has posed a problem
since the Korean war started
The reason is that all regular ano
reserve enlistments ending ,aftel
last July 9 have been extended fol
one year-the maximum permitted
at present. So after next July 9
large numbers of extended enlist
ments will start to expire.
Draft expansion bills before both
houses of Congress. meanwhile
ask authority for two years be-
yond next July 8 to extend ex-
piring enlistmentS. But the meas
ures in their present form specify
that no enlistment can be extended
more than once, nor for period
OF more than one year.
Policies Being Considered.
The Senate Armed Services
Committee already has approved
this extension provision. If it
should fail to pass Congress, how
ever, the result would be that
thousands of other enlistments of
men. both on active and inactive
duty, would come to an end this
year.
After July 8, officials said. re-
servists affected will move out of
the reserve program-even If
they are on active duty-unless
they re-enlist voluntarily or the
law is revised.
With each service carrying out
an active reserve recall program,
some policies for handling this
situation already have been set
up and others are in the mill.
The Navy, it was learned, re-
Gently instructed its district COM
mandants not to call up reserv-
lists who have less than one year
OF obligated service" left in the
reserve. This. officials said, will
apply to reserve quotas for active
duty beginning next April, May
and June.
Only Enlisted Men Affected.
Purpose of this order. officials
explained. is to prevent calling
into uniform a man whose ex-
tended enlistment would be up in
q few months, after which he
could go home. Even with the
one-year provision. however, Of

should help smooth the troubled
relations between the administra-
tion and labor. But, alone, it will
fall short of appeasing the angry
union chieftains.
Although the letter was not
made public, it was learned that
1t was dated last Thursday
shortly before the three union
members withdrew from the Wage
Sterilization Board, move de-
signed to dramatize general dis
satisfaction with the way the de-
Tense program is being run.
Just when it was mailed was
unclear, although the labor people
said they received it yesterday.
Call on Truman Planned.
In the letter Mr.. Wilson said
that earlier he had told the labor
officials that he would be glad to
consider their proposal for ap-
pointment of high-level labor as
sistant. But AFL President Will
liam Green said that he knew of
mo such suggestion" being made.
That tended to further cloud the
situation.
The Labor Policy Committee.
representing the AFL, CIO and
independent rail unions, planned
to call on President Truman to-
morrow.
AT 2 pm. the committee will
meet to consider withdrawing
their representatives from all of
the Federal defense agencies as a
further protest against the way
the mobilization program is being
run. A vote on such action was
postponed Friday when the COM
mittee instructed its wage board
representatives to resign.
The designations reached the
White House yesterday but off,
cials refused to reveal contents
Of the letters until the President
had seen them. The labor mem
bers first broke with the board
over adoption by public and in
dustry members of formula
limiting future wage increases to
10 per cent over levels of a year
ago.
Big Business Domination Claimed.
The wage ceiling order was in
the form of a recommendation to
Economic Stabilizer Eric Johns
ton who now must act on it. That,
vt was indicated, will not be done
for several days. The labor Of
f1cials made 1t clear that Mr..
Johnston would have to make the
formula less rigid before they
would accept it.
While the labor leaders feel the
administration has by-raSsed them
in fixing defense policies in gen.
eral. the bitterest blasts in an
angry statement issued by the
committee Friday were reserved
for Mr.. Wilson. 1t said big busi-
ness representatives were running
mobilization and mot a single
policy decision so far has reflected
in any way the recommendations
of labor or any other group except
big business"
The Wilson letter to the labor
committee referred to a letter of
February 9 in which the commit
tee first put in writing it's request
for representation high on Mr..
Wilson's staff.
II previously advised members
of the United Labor Policy Com
mittee with whom I met" Mr..
Wilson wrote, that I would be
glad to consider this proposal. and
I suggested that the committee
suggest 9 union leader who they
could recommend for appoint
ment, OF course stating that the
leader so appointed should be one
who could spend practically full
time on the assignment"
At the end, Mr.. Wilson added:
