that / go in my sleep" or, II hope that go quickly when my
time comes. / don't want to linger," and old TICKER
STICKER, DEATHS number one KILLER, or. in polite
phraseology, HEART DISEASE is really calling their bluff.
Sudden death, easy, no pain seems to be a special custom
made job, but if it were possible for you to receive a letter
from some close friend or relative who had died, without
warning, it undoubtedly would go something like this:
DEAR never had a sick day IN my life.
Went all through World War Two without a scratch. Back
home again, all during that trying period when I was getting
my feet planted firmly on ground once more, ] managed to
keep fit, and even the headaches of setting up my own bust
ness did not affect me in any way. Then, as you know, ousl-
ness began to go good. 1t was becoming easier and easier Tor
me to be able to give Janet, who, believe me, is one wife in a
million, and my two swell kids everything they wanted. Life
stretched out before me, a succession of happy fruitful years.
That morning I got up whistling to keep an appointment that
l was sure would mean another fat account. It was just as |
was reaching for my hat that the terrific pains caught me,
live fire shooting through my arms, down my sides and into
my legs. / staggered and gasped and then, before | could 90
anything, something slam-banged into my chest and | crum-
pied in a heap on the floor. / was dead. | saw my wife grab
the phone. Later I watched DR.. Cayne lean over me with his
stethoscope, saw him shake his head sadly. I was dead. I had
died from a HEART ATTACK. | saw my dear wife, dazed
and grief-stricken, on the verge of collapse and | tried to say
something, tried with all my might to tell her how it had
happened, but / was dead"
THE PUBLIC IS becoming increasingly HEART-CON-
SCIOUS, and for a very good reason. HEART DISEASE IS
Deaths number one henchman. Each year at this particular
time, an appeal is made by the AMERICAN HEART ASSO-
CATION for funds with which to carry on its extensive re-
search program. And because RESEARCH is The KEY 10
THE HEART PROBLEM, both the medical profession and
the public are backing the greatest effort ever made in his
tory to find the basic causes of DISEASES OF THE HEARI
which are responsible for more deaths than all other diseases
combined. Imagine!
TREMENDOUS ADVANCES have been made through
research New DRUGS have been created to prevent recur-
FENCES of rheumatic fever, forerunner Of rheumatic heart
disease. There are. other new drugs that slow blood clothing
, 1953-03-12

thus reducing the number of fatalities following a heart at
tack, new drugs that aid in the treatment of high blood pres
sure and other circulatory disorders. Miracles have been
achieved in HEART SURGERY and incredible new INSTRU-
MENTS have been perfected to study and diagnose heart
ailments. In the past decade it has been discovered that much
can be done for the victims of HEART DISEASE bringing
new life and hope to the sufferers.
WHEN WE PAUSE and consider that ten million Ameri-
cans are afflicted with some form of HEART DISEASE, that
the annual death toll from it is three quarter of a million
souls, the fact is brought smashing home to us that there is
a vast amount of work still to be done, that among several
efforts in our fight for survival, thisa a major project. During
the past four years the AHA. has spent four million dollars
for research. It is through the ANNUAL HEART FUND
DRIVE that the organization and it affiliates are able to
function, widening their scope of research in mending,
strengthening, and preserving that vital organ that makes
you and me tick.

am convinced that the
fundamental structure of our
Department of Defense and its
various component agencies
as provided by the National
Security Act, as amended, is
sound. >.
With my full support, the
Secretary Of Defense must ex-
ercise over the Department of
Defense the direction, author
ity, and control which are
vested in him by the National
Security Act. He should do so
through the basic channels of
responsibility and authority
prescribed in that act. No
function in any part of the
Department of Defense, or in
any of it's component agencies,
should be performed independ-
ent of the direction. authority,
and control of the Secretary of
Defense.

Effectiveness. Economy
Is Second Major Goal

In an organization the size
Of the Department of Defense,
true effectiveness with econ
omy can be attained only by
decentralization of operations,
under flexible and effective di-
rection and control from the
center. -.
Such a system of decen-
tralized operations. however,
requires. for sound manage
ment. flexible machinery at the
top. Unfortunately, this is not
wholly possible in the Depart
ment of Defense as now estab-
lished by law. Two principal
fields of activity are rigidly
assigned by law to unwieldy
boards which provide or
ganizational arrangements too
slow and too clumsy to serve
as effective management tools
for the Secretary. -.
Accordingly, I am transmit
ting today to the Congress a
reorganization plan which is
designed to provide the Secre-
tary of Defense with a more
efficient staff organization.
The plan calls for the aboli-
ton of the Munitions Board.
the Research and Development
Board, the Defense Supply
Management Agency, and the
Office of Director of Installa-
tons and vests their functions
in the Secretary of Defense.
At the same time. the plan
authorizes the appointment of
new Assistant Secretaries of
Defense to whom the Secretary
Of Defense intends to assign
the functions now vested In the

tions-(a) All functions of the

sible to their secretaries for
the efficiency of their services
and their readiness for war.
These officers are clearly
overworked, and steps must be
devised to relieve them Of time
consuming details of minor i'm
portance. =.
The reorganization plan
transmitted to the Congress
today is designed to place
upon the chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff greater
responsibility for organizing
and directing the subordinate
structure Of the Joint Chiefs Of
Staff in such a way as to help
the Secretary of Defense and
the Joint Chiefs of Staff dis
charge their total RESPONSE
bilities.
Specifically. the reorganiza-
ton plan makes the chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
responsible for managing the
work of the Joint Staff and its
director.
The Congress is full part
ner in actions to strengthen
our military establishment.
Jointly we must carry forward
a sound program to keep
America strong. The Congress
and the President, acting in
their proper spheres, must per-
form their duties to the Amer
lean people in support of our
highest traditions. Should. for
any reason, the national mill
tary policy become a subject
of partisan politics. the only
loser would be the American
people.
We owe it to all the people
10 maintain the best military
establishment that we know
how to devise. There are none,
however, to whom we owe it
more than the soldiers, the
sailors, the Marines, and the
airmen in uniform whose lives
are pledged to the defense of
our freeSsNn.

Strategic Planning
improvement Sought

Our third broad objective is
to improve our machinery for
strategic planning for national
security.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff are
not a command body but are
the principal military advisors
to the President, the National
Security Council, and the Sec
rotary of Defense. They are re-
sponsible for formulating the
strategic plans by which the
United States will cope with
the challenge of any enemy.

Joint Chiefs of Staff who are
the military chiefs of their re-
Sective services are reSpon-

Assistant Secretaries
Are Key to Efficiency

The abolition of the present
statutory staff agencies and
the provision of the new as
sistant secretaries will be
the key to the attainment of
increased effectiveness at low
cost in the Department of De-
tense. ..
One other area for improved
effectiveness is civilian and
military personnel manage
ment. In this area certain
specialized studies and actions
are desirable. Accordingly, I

Defense to organize a study of

A partial LeCt OF PTeStGenE
EiSenho,Der's message to Con-
gress on reorganization OF the
Defense Department tollotDS:
To the Congress Of the
United States:
I address the Congress on a
subject which has been Of pri-
mary interest to me through
out all the years of my adult
life-the defense of our coun-
try.
AS a former soldier who has
experienced modern war at
first hand, and now, as PreSi-
dent and Commander in Chief
of the armed forces Of the
United States. I believe that
our defense establishment is in
need of immediate improve
ment. =.
Today we live in perilous
period of international affairs.
Soviet Russia and her allies
have it within their power to
join with US in the establish
ment Of a true peace or to
plunge the world into global
war. To date. they have chosen
to conduct themselves in such
a way that these are years
neither of total war nor total
peace.
We in the United States
have, therefore, recently en-
barked upon the definition of
a new, positive foreign policy.
One of our basic aims is to
gain again for the free world
the initiative in shaping the
international conditions under
which freedom can thrive. Es-
Sential to this endeavor is the
assurance of an alert, efficient,
ever-prepared defense estab-
lishment.
In providing the kind of
military security that our
country needs, we must keep
our people free and our econ
omy solvent. We must not en-
danger the very things we seek
to defend. We must not create
a nation mighty in arms that
is lacking in liberty and bank
rupt in resources. Our armed
strength must continue to rise
from the vigor of a free people
and a prosperous economy.
Recognizing all these ma
tional and international de-
mands upon our military estab-
lishment. we must remain
ever mindful of three great
detectives in organizing our
defense.
First: Our military estab-
lishment must be founded
upon our basic constitutional
principles and traditions.
There must be a clear and
unchallenged civilian RESPONSE
bility in the defense estab-
lishment. This is essential not
only to maintain democratic
institutions, but also to pro-
tect the integrity of the mill
tary profession. -.
tary profession. Profess
sional military leaders must
not be thrust into the political
arena to become the prey of
partisan politics.
Second: Effectiveness with
economy must be made the
Fatchwords of our defense eff
Tort.
Third: We must develop the
possible military plans. These
plans must be sound guides
to action in case of war. :.
To strengthen civilian con-
troll by establishing clear lines
of accountability, to further
effectiveness with economy,
and to provide adequate PLAN
ming for military purposes
these were primary detectives
Of the Congress in enacting
the National Security Act of
1947 and strengthening it in
1949.
