at the same time.
 On the air power question, Els enhoWer said he wasn't in on Pentagon studies that led to the current ''stretchout" of air mobil- ization over a period of several years.
 He went on to say that the re- sponsibility of preparing the na- tion's defenses doesn't belong merely, or even most importantly, to the people in uniform-it be- longs to every citizen"
 Referring to his days as chief of staff, the general said "The calculations Of the Pentagon brains "were not accepted by the civil authority" adding:
 "We would have been very properly criticized had we not ac- cepted the decision of our super iors in government"
 Truman in 1949 impounded $615,000,000 voted by Congress to build the Air Force up to 58 groups.
 Again in 1850, when the ques- ton of expanding the Air Force to 70 groups was before Congress, Truman said the nation could af- ford only a 48-group force.

WASHINGTON, (P)- General Eisenhower said Tuesday he al ways has favored a strong US. Air Force and is convinced air power will be dominant in any future war
 At the same time, in what might have been intended as a thrust at Sen. Robert A. Taft, Eisenhower said: Anyone who finds out that the ordinary foot soldier can be finally eliminated from war, I wish he would show me how to do it.
 He also took an apparent dig at President Truman's action in delaying an Air Force buildup in 1949.
 Eisenhower met with reporters at the Pentagon a short time be- fore doffing the uniform as fiVe-star general to free himself for the political struggle ahead.
 He replied at the outset to a question based on Taft's state ment in a speech last Sunday that a steady deterioration of US. air strength began while Eisenhower was Army chief of staff.
 Taft also hit out in last Sun days radio speech at what he called "the fallacies of our land generals" One of these, the Sen ator said, is a belief that "a war against Russia can only be won on the continent of Europe with bayonets."
 Eisenhower took direct issue with Taft by stating again his view that adoption of a universal military training. program by this country would lessen the chance of war. Taft, campaigning for yes terday's South Dakota primary election, said he was very strong ly opposed to UNIT at this time.
 Eisenhower said, however, that he doesn't see how UNIT and sell ective service could be operated

President Recommends $3,38O,7OO For ACS


 WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman asked Congress Wednes- day for a supplemental appropria- ton of $3,463, ,555, ,44o for the De- fense Department for the fiscal year starting July 1.
 "The amounts are 37 million dollars less than the tentative es- inmates for these items contained in the budget for the fiscal year 1953," the White House announce ment said.
 The sum of $469, ,687 ,OOO was re- quested for increased pay and allowances for military personnel under legislation voted last month. The President recommended $3,380,7O0 for construction of liv- ing quarters, troop housing and operational facilities for the AL aska Communication System.

he is not only right but Repub-
lican in his views.
The famous statement he
took to his conference with the
general gives him considerable
leeway to impress those views
on the presidential campaign.
While Senator Taft explained
that he and the general were
still not completely agreed upon
foreign policy. The Chicago
Tribune has obligingly pointed
out that:
THE generals acceptance of
MIR. Taft's budget figures will
go q long way toward closing
their positions, for with the re-
duced appropriations there must
be a reduction of military ex-
penditures here and of foreign
aid"
All this being said, the
Truman-Taft campaigning is a
calculated risk both candidates
had to take. Mr.. Truman is a
hero to large blocs of voters to
whom Gov. Stevenson is Adlai
the Unknown. Senator Taft's
many followers were sulking in
their tents and hanging on to
their pocketbooks.
The presidential nominees can
only hope that the crowds. won't
unduly excite the President and
Senator. Meanwhile Democrats
and Republicans alike will count
that day gained whose cold
descending sun sees not their
own troops wounding their own
party.

Macarthur Won't Connpoion
General Reluctant to Leave New Job on the Suggestion
Ihot He Make Few Speeches on BehoIf of Eisenhower
Constantine Brown:

Gen. Macarthur, reported to
have spoken approvingly Of
Senator Taft's decision to CAM
paign actively for Gen. Eisen-
hover. will remain entirely aloof
himself. When approached re-
Gently with suggestion that he
make at least one or two
speeches on behalf Of Gen. Ell
senhower. he pointed to the
fact that this would require his
taking a long leave of absence
from Remington Rand, Inc, of
which he has become board
chairman. And he considers 1t
would be unfair to the COM
pany to take leave when he has
just begun to familiarize him
self with its workings.
But while Gen. Macarthur will
not join the political struggle,
he is slated, if Gen. Eisenhower
is elected, to become chair
man of q new agency which the
Republicans intend to establish
by act Of Congress. This agency
will be given the task Of plan
ming long-range foreign and
military policies. In some ways
1t may be compared to the
Hoover Commission. The main
difference will be a much smaller
membership. It will be COM
posed. besides two or three cabi-
net officers, of q dozen or so out
standing citizens from the mill
tary. political. economic and
labor ranks.
The idea was suggested to
Gen. Eisenhower when he first
reached New York from Denver
by the Senate and House minor
ity leaders. Styles Bridges and
Joseph Martin. It appealed to
the Republican candidate so
much that he communicated 1t
to his chief foreign policy ad-
wiser. John Foster Dulles. Last
Tuesday at San Francisco the
former ambassador at large
mentioned 1t publicly for the
first time.
Those close to Gen. Eisen-
hover say that If elected he
would like to employ Gen. Mac
Arthur's great talents in his ad-
ministration. OF course there is
no possibility that he would offer
him such a position as Secretary
Of State or Defense. Had SEN
ator Taft been the Republican
candidate there Is no doubt that
Gen. Macarthur would have
been given the choice of either
position. But If five-Star gen.
eral becomes President the ap-
pointment Of another five-star
officer to an important Cabinet
post would cause considerable

Gen. Eisenhower's speech to
the American Federation Of
Labor will not satisfy either
labor or management. 1t failed
to deal comprehensively with
the problem Of governmental
Intervention in labor disputes
and the regulation of collective
bargaining practices.
It seems unfortunate that,
with all the talent and advice
available to the general. he
should attempt to compress in
a single paragraph the princi-
Piles Of the Taft-Hartley Act
that he thinks should be con-
tinued and fail also to specify
the main things that ought to
be eliminated.
II the general had stopped to
think about it-or If his ad-
visers had given the matter any
thought-they might have con-
suited the record of the United
States Senate, which on June
80. 1949. endeavored to re-
write the Taft-Hartley Act by
means Of 2S different amend
ments. Those amendments were
approved by q vote of 81 to
AZ in what was known as the
Taft-Ives bill.
Gen. Eisenhower said in his
speech:
Here are some of the prin-
ciples I think it is important we
continue in law: The encourage
ment of collective bargaining:
the right to strike: an advance
notice before strike is called;
q requirement that both unions
and employers live up to their
contracts: the assurance that
members Of unions get a regular
report on their organizations
finances"
But are CneSe really the only
important principles in the pres
ent Taft Hartley Act? The most
important Of all was not men,
toned by the general. It is the
provision which protects every
worker from being interfered
with in any way in his right to
join or not to join a union. This
clause in the law has often been
referred to as emancipating the
worker from the tyranny of the
strong-arm organizers of unions
or from union bosses who threat
en- to take his job from him If he
disagrees with the union officers.

But while Gen. Macarthur
cannot be offered an active
cabinet position. he is sure to
be offered the chairmanship of
the new agency for long range
study and advice on our foreign
and military policies. which
these days are interlocked. His
acceptance. of course, depends
on a number of circumstances.
Of which the question whether
he can continue in his present
Remington Rand position is
not the least important.
