100 Million Voters
Seen in Primary Plan
BY the Assoeioied Press

Senator Smathers, Democrat, Of
Florida said today the Nation
could have 100 million voters TAX
ing part in the 1856 presidential
election if the people were given
the right to select party nominees
This would be twice as many
as are expected to ballot next
November, he said.
Senator Smathers gave his
views in a statement prepared for
a Senate Judiciary subcommittee
hearing on his constitutional
amendment setting up a Nation
wide preferential primary.
Under the proposed amend
ment, all 48 States would hold
preferential primaries in June
during presidential election year
Results would be binding; a can
didate would get his proportionate
share of a States delegates de-
termined by his vote.
The national conventions, usu-
ally held in July, would ratify the
result of the primaries and write
party platforms.
Only Is States now have pref
erential primaries and most are
not binding on the delegates.

NAT0 Strength al Sea
Insufficient for War,
Mccormick Declares
By John A. Giles

The Western Allies have insult
flcient ships in the Atlantic to
face a war In Europe, according
to Lynde D. Cormick.
The Supreme Allied Command
er, Atlantic, told a Pentagon news
conference yesterday that with
present estimates of potential
enemy resources, chiefly in sub
marines, he would have a grave
problem in controlling the Allan
tic tomorrow" If he had to do SO
with nothing except the surface
and air forces which he would
have on hand tomorrow"
He added that the forces which
Gen. Eisenhower would be able
to maintain and operate on land
would be determined in large
measure by the naval support
which is assured them.
Stresses Difference.
The admiral, who has just re-
turned from a tour of North At
lantic Treaty Organization cap
itals, made clear one essential
difference in the intensity Of
control exercised in the European
command. as distinguished from
his Atlantic command. Definite
forces are assigned to Gen. EiSen-
hower-approximately so divisions
of one sort or another by the end
of 1852.
On the other hand. Admiral
Mccormick has forces only ear
marked to him; he exercises nc
control whatever over any of them
in normal times (other than the
American) except during the pc
riod of actual naval exercises
The first of these maneuvers prob
ably will take place in the fall.
Had to Disabuse Nations.
Admiral Mccormick said that
on his recent NATO tour he had
to "disabuse" some treaty powers
of the impression that they could
call upon NATO for vessels to pro-
tect their home waters. He said
he told them all nations would
have to defend most of their own
coasts.
The admiral suggested that his
f1rSt recommendation to the other
NATO' nations which will furnish
naval forces to the combined fleet
would be modernization of the YES
sells so earmarked. Most of the
undermining, he admitted, un-
doubtedly would have to come
from the American pool.
The whole force will be roughly
so per cent American and 80 per
cent British, with the remaining
10 per cent coming from all
others, notably Canada, France
and the Netherlands.

On Purchasing Policy
To Meet Criticism

Defense Secretary Lovett today
signed an order forming an armed
services procurement regulation
committee in the wake of con-
gressional criticism of military
purchasing policies.
The committee replaces an un-
official and informal group, which
had been appointed by the Secre-
taries of the Army. Navy and Air
Force and over which the Num-
tions Board had no authority.
The disclosure of the existence
Of the former committee before q
House subcommittee investigating
waste in military procurement
brought demands by Chairman
Hebert, Democrat, Of Louisiana,
for a revision of the setup.
Would Recommend Policy.
Mr.. Lovett directed that each
service appoint two representatives
to the group and that Chairman
John D. Small Of the Munitions
Board appoint its chairman. The
committee will develop and pre-
sent recommendations to the
board regarding procurement pol
icy, procedures and practices '.to
the end that the maximum uni
formitN and effectiveness will be
attained in procurement pro-
grams of the Department of De-
fense."
Any conflicts that cannot be
promptly resolved by the commit
tee will be taken over by the
board.
Different Prices Cited.

If any. changes were contemplated
in military purchasing policies,
Several members of Congress have
suggested further Use of the sim
gle purchase plan for all the
armed forces. The Hebert SUBJ
committee has spoken of the sin
gle purchase of clothing.
However, military procurement
officers have said such a plan did
not always bring about the de-
sired result of huge savings, since
the services buy in such large
quantities anyway that they al
ready benefit thereby.
F. The subcommittee has been es-
Ipecially critical of the fact that
sometimes the services buy iden-
tical items at different prices.

st. Stephens School in Alex
andria puts only six men on the
football field. but it's team scored
485 points to the opposition's go
last year.
This season Coach Albert
(Sleepy) Thompson has prospects
of another successful campaign
with st. Stephens six-man foot
ball team. Using the wing T
with a 220-pound fullback to sup
ply power. Sleepy is hoping to get
st. Stephens its second straight
Interstate League championship.
Not many people know much
about six-man football or even
that there is a team in the area.
However, in some parts Of the
Middle West and Northwest there
are more six-man high school foot
ball teams than regular elevens
and the sport has its own ma
tional magazine.
It's a Rugged Game.
With few important changes
the game is like football as played
everywhere and it's not touch but
tackle with all the hard blocking
of the regular game. Every play
er is eligible for a pass, the field
is 80 yards by 40 and Is yards is
required for a first down. In ad-
dition. because of the speed of the
game, a running play cannot be
executed without one back pitch
ing the ball out to another back
to give the defense time to catch
up with the offense. Punts and
passes may be made with direct
pass from center.
Sleepy, former st. Johns ALL
Prep basketball player and a
pitcher with Silver Hill on the area
sandlots. uses quarterback di-
rectly behind the center. q full
back and a wingback with bal
anced line. On defense, although
most clubs use q 3-2-1, Sleepy
thinks he will use a AZ and hold
in the offensive ends.
Last years team won seven
games, sweeping the conference,
and tied with Christ Church, Va,
1918 in the rain. c. j. O'Conner,
coach of Boys Latin in Baltimore
and editor of Six-Man Football
Magazine, said st. Stephens was
the best team he had seen in the
10 years of the sport. His maga-
zine lists the scoring records of
all the schools in the United
States, and the 425-point spread
mug up by st. Stephens last
year was the biggest in the coun-
try.
This seasons club is powered by
Leonard Newton, 220-pound full
back, who is the fastest boy or
the team. College elevens have
been scouting Newton, but it look.
as if the University of Virginia ha.
the inside track on this fine pros.

i Randy Heflin, 140, and Parker
Bracken. a 160-pound left-handec
passer, share the wingback spo1
!; and Bill Brophy. 178, gooe

Holcombe at 6-foot-7 and 18l
