endangering the whole defense

A significant and growing pro-
portion Of the military equipment
being provided by the United
States to its NATO partners is
soon to be produced in European
factories. The rate of production
of equipment, such as aircraft

radio sets, is rising and will con-

re-eStabliShing in Europe a level
OF production capable of satisfy

America cannot continue to be
the primary source of munitions
for the entire free world. To do so
would be militarily unsound.
Moreover, the United States can
not long continue such expendi-
lures without endangering her own
economic structure. The sound
ness Of that structure is of vital
concern to the entire free world,
for its collapse would be a world
shaking tragedy.
Still Lack Full Force.

strated by such practical examples
as the European defense force and
the Schuman Plan. which embrace
the same six countries. The
Schuman Plan calls for the pool
ing and production of steel and
|coal-vital commodities of life and
defense.
Morale Is Elevated.
In my opinion, the two plans,
the Schuman Plan and the Euro
pean defense community, mark
historic advances in European CO.
operation. If these could be sup
plemented by Schuman Plan for
electric power and agriculture,
along with a system of standard
izing money values, the benefits
would be profound and far
reaching.
Much has been done in the past
IL months. Viewed separately,
as military, economic, and politi-
cal achievements, these gains may
not be spectacular; but taken as
a whole. they have created a pro-
found change in morale, the
basic factor of all.
Already our active forces have
increased to point where they
could give a vigorous account of
themselves, should an attack be
launched against us. In terms of
army divisions whether in service
or quickly mobilizable, our forces
in Western Europe have nearly
doubled in numbers. g
Supply System Expanding.
Behind them is a steadily ex-
panding supply system, and a
command organization to plan
and direct their co-ordinated ef-
forts. Still far-disappointingly
far-from sufficient for a deter
mined defense. they nevertheless
represent a fighting force in whose
spirit and increasing fitness our
nations can take considerable
pride.
Pursuant to the recommends
tionS of the temporary council
committee. our member coun-
tries have pledged to produce this
year SO divisions for European
defense, exclusive of those to be
provided by the two new NATO
nations. Greece and Turkey.
Roughly, one-half of the so divi-
sions will be standing forces; the
remainder are planned as reserve
divisions available for employ
ment at periods varying from
three to 80 days.
The nations of Western Eu-
rope will never be able to main
tain under arms in peacetime the
regular forces necessary to meet
a Soviet invasion, to hold it, and
to throw it back.
Must Employ Cover Forces.
The defense of the West must
necessarily be based on highly
trained covering forces, backed by
reserve units which can be brought
into action Immediately after the
outbreak of hostilitieS.
Air power is the dominant fac
tor in war today. It cannot win
a war alone, but without it, no
war can be won.
There is still long way to go in
developing air strength in West
ern Europe. A major task has
been and continues to be the pro-
vision of adequate air bases and
communications to link them.
During the past year, some 80
airf1elds have been put into use,
but these were largely an in
heritance from previous European
construction programs and in
Ivolved improvements on fields
Evening star., 1952-04-02

we began to see definite improve
ment in the morale and readiness
of troops. But first and foremost
was the need for more forces.
The United States and Great
Britain alone possessed previously
formed and disposable reserves,
and they proceeded to deploy
additional strength in Germany
four divisions from America and
two from the United Kingdom.
France already had the equivalent
Iof four divisions in Germany.
My personal efforts, therefore,
and those of my deputy, Field
Marshal Montgomery, and men,
bers of the SHAPE staff, were di-
recte6 at the basic problem of get
ting more men under arms and
under training in Europe.
Our central problem was one of
norale-the spirit of man.
To assist free nations. in Europe
and elsewhere, the United States
inaugurated the Mutual Defense
Assistance Program late in 1949 to
furnish items Of military equip
r1ent which the other countries
could not produce. and to assist
in the training required for the
effective use Of these weapons.
Price Rises Are Peril.
Despite this extensive aid, the
rearmament program meant heavy
budget increases in all European
countries. The effect of defense
spending on national economies
was greatly magnif1ed by sharp
world wide increases in the cost OF
raw materials. Food, coal. and
lother basic necessities scared to

already in existence. A vast
amount of new construction is
needed.
AS presently scheduled. NATO's
European air arm will include by
the end of 1852 some 1000 opera
tional airplanes. a significant pro-
portion of which will be modern
jet fighters. When realized, this
air strength will amount to a
greatly improved situation over
what we faced a year ago, but it
will still be far from the ultimate
requirements.
Ship Deficiencies Exist.
The naval equation in Western
European waters is still weighted
strongly in our favor. Deficiencies
exist in minesweepers, anti-sub-
marine craft. and harbor defense
installations.
The growth of military strength
reported during the past year has
derived from various sources.
Certainly, it could not have been
achieved without arrival in in
creasing numbers of tanks, air
craft. and heavy equipment from
the United States and Canada.
During the past 18 months
every Western European nation
represented in SHAPE has in
creased the length of its con-
scription period. Defense bud
gets were also raised: and among
these continental members, mill
tary expenditures now average
over twice the pre-Korean level.
Preparations are now in prog
reSs for a coordinated set of
Imaneuvers during the coming
year to weld standing and reserve
forces into integrated, battle
worthy commands.
Other Sea Forces Available.
At this time. the forces assigned
to SHAPE are not of themselves
sufficient to stay the hand of an
Iaggressor. OF some comfort in
this bleak realization is the exis-
tence of other military forces of
the NATO countries in adjacent
areas. At sea. there are the fleets
directed by Admiral Mccormick,
Supreme Allied Commander At
Ilantic: there is the British home
fleet, and other Allied naval forces
in the Mediterranean and Euro
pean coastal waters. From it's
bases in the United Kingdom, the
Raj Fighter Command would
contribute greatly.
The United States Strategic Air
Command. with bases in the
United Kingdom and North Al
rica, possesses tremendous capa-
bility. acting both independently
and in support of European de-
fense forces.
Military strength is of little
worth unless backed by healthy,
expanding economies. Yet from
the very beginning of our en-
Ideavor. we have been able to
draw some confidence from the
knowledge that NATO's economic
potential is superior to that of
the East.
Some Imitation Curbed.
Hanging over the NATO defense
effort has been the menace of in
flation which, if unchecked, could
wipe out all gains.
The picture is by no means
bright. and we are far from being
able to regard the success of the
military budgetary programs as
already assured. In some coun-
tries the pressure Of imitation has
been effectively checked. In others,
imitation Is surging upwards and

Hagerstown And Martinsburg Game Ends
In ALA Tie Friday Night At Stadium
Hubs Take 40 Lead In FhsHalf But Bulldogs Roar Bacl
In Second Half More Than $500 See-Saw Battle
BY ii. Douglas
By III. S. Douglas

At the Stadium on Friday night,
before a crowd of over $500, the
Hagerstown Hubs, in an inspired first
half in which their hard tackling
caused the Martinsburg Bulldogs to
tumble twice and also taking adj
vantage of break when a Martins
burg ball carrier stumbled and fell
on the pitching mound for another
tumble, took a 14-0 lead in the first
half.
In the second half, however, the
Bulldogs took command and aided
by an off-side penalty against the
Hubs after the first try for an extra
point failed, tied the score at IA all
First Quarter
The Hubs kicked off and Netoskie
took the ball on his own 20 and be-
hind fine blocking raced 35 yards to
HagerStown's As. Three line plays,
two by Flagg and one by Netoskie,
put the ball on the Is for the first
first down of the game. Four line
plays gave Martinsburg another first
down on Hagerstown's 10, but then
Hagerstown stiffened and after three
line plays pushed the Bulldogs back
to the 81, Hagerstown took over at
that point when a fourth down pass
was incOnDlete. After being men,
allied IS yards for holding, the Hubs
we're forced to kick and Martins
burg took over at midfeld, but they
fumbled on the first play and the
Hubs recovered. Keeping to the
ground, Hagerstown advanced the
ball to Martinsburg's Is as the first
quarter ended.
Second Quarter
On the first play of the second
quarter the Hubs made their third,

another 15-yard penalty forced them
to kick and it was Martinsburg's
ball on the Hubs 40-yard line Neto-
skie, on two plays, put the ball on
the 30 and then, after a pass attempt
failed, Flagg made another first down
on Hagerstown's 20, but again fun
BILE spoiled their scoring chance and
Hagerstown took over on their own
rs. After line play gained yards,
Cianelli fumbled but recovered for
loss of 10 yards and the Hubs were
forced to kick, with the ball being
downed on HagerstoWn's 40-yard
line. Netoskie made a first down on
the "a and then Hamilton threw
perfect pass to Hawkins for what
looked like a sure score, but he drop
ped the ball. Flagg hen made
first down on the Hubs II and then,
on third down, Hamilton crashed
through for six points. Netoskie's
kick was wide, but a Hagerstown
lineman was off side and Netoskie
made good on his second attempt to
make the score Hagerstown IA, Mar
tinsburg Z.
The Bulldogs kicked off and then,
after two line plays, Hagerstown's
tumble was recovered by Martins
burg on the Hubs 43 yard line as the
third quarter ended.
Fourth Quarter
Two first downs put the ball on the
Hubs 17-yard line, but the Bulldogs
were penalized Is yards for holding
and then, after getting the Is yards
back on a pass, Cianelli intercepted
another pass and raced back to his
own 31-yard line. With Cianelli car
rying the ball the Hubs chalked up
another first down on their own 35.
But the Bulldogs stiffened and the
Hubs were forced to kick and Mar
tinsburg took over on their own %.
Two line plays by Flagg put the ball
on the AZ and then, with Hamilton
carrying the ball, the Bulldogs chalk
ed up another first down on the Hubs
35. A 15-yard penalty set them back
to their own AZ, but then a pass and
fine run by Hamilton gave them
another first down on the Hubs e.
After an incomplete pass, Hamilton,
on three plays, got first down on
the Hubs II. On a pass play, in
which an illegal man caught the ball,
Martinsburg was penalized 5 yards
and then, with little more than a
minute play, Holbruner took a per-
feet pass from Hamilton and raced
over the line for the second Touch
down. Netoskie's kick was per
