Cites Financial Need

Increased fares of 5 cents a
zone on most of the routes of
the Washington, Marlboro &
Annapolis Motor Lines, Inc, will
become effective at midnight
tonight.
This was assured today when
the Interstate Commerce Com
mission voted not to suspend the
company's planned increases.
Unanimous Decision.
Participating in today's deci-
sion were Commissioners j. Ha-
den Alldredge, chairman; An
thony F. Arpaia and Howard G..
Freas. The decision of the three
commissioners was unanimous,
the ICC said.
The three commissioners yes
terday held an informal hearing
as a suspension board. Repre-
Sentatives of several citizens as
Sociations protested the fare
boost. Some, however, were SYM
pathetic to the company's prob
lens.
The three commissioners ap-
parently were impressed by the
plea OF Leslie L. Altman, w. M. &
A president, who told them the
carrier is on the brink of finan-
cial disaster. He declared the
firm is heavily in debt and that
he has advanced money out of
his own pocket to the limit of his
ability.

The company's attorney, James
P. Donovan, told the commits
sionerS that banks were loath to
extend further credit to the COM
pany.

with the ICC it's proposed gen.
eral increase of scents a zone.
On some of the routes, however.
no advance is planned, the fare

Japanese Workers
To Strike; M-Hour
Week Is Too Short
BY the Associoted Press

TOKYO, Dec. 15.-Japanese
workmen are going on strike be-
cause they want to work longer
hours than the United States
Army allows.
To them the 40-hour week of
American workmen isn't long
enough. They are paid by the
hour so longer hours mean higher
pay checks.
The Army said today the labor
liaison officer at Camp Yoko-
homa near Tokyo was notified
that 1900 workers would strike
tomorrow because of opposition
to the 40-hour work week"
The liaiSon officer pointed out
that any increase in the work
week would mean some workers
would lose their jobs because
there are only enough funds to
keep the present payroll.

President Reviews
New Arms Spending
With Top Aides Today
Cabinet. Security Council
To Get Briefine on Heavy
Cuts in Monpower
BY John A. Giles

President Eisenhower today
reviewed with his principal adj
visers a military spending pro-
gram for the fiscal year begin
ming July l which calls for heavy
cuts in Army. Navy and Marine
Corps strength.
Top Defense Department off,
cialS presented the proposed
plans at meetings at the top
level of both the National Sc
curity Council and the cabinet.
Another Session Possible.
An official said there was a
possibility of still another Coun-
Gil meeting. probably Wednes-
day, to hammer out the final
outline. Republican congressional
leaders are scheduled to be
briefed on the program at three
days of conferences beginning
Thursday.
Details of the plans were a
closely held secret. But it was
clear that cuts in the Army,
Navy and Marine Corps are 60
ing through despite protests
within those organizations.
Assistant Secretary of Defense
John A. Hannah said in a radio
interview last night that by mid
1855 the armed forces will be
cut more than 100000 from their
present strength of 3.5 million,
according to the Pentagon plan.
To Study Even Lower Ceiling.
After a three hour White
House meeting on the subject
Saturday, the Army was given
yet another ceiling and told to
determine its effects on its
world wide commitments. It
would be given enough money
for about 1,175,000 under that
tentative plan-the lowest figure
yet studied. It now has a total
of is million officers and men
and is scheduled to reduce to
1,423, 900 by next June 80.
The generals have complained
bitterly and repeatedly about the
Army cuts. They say the service
cannot carry out it's interna-
tional commitments with drastic
reductions, that troops would
have to be pulled back from
overseas.
Further. they charge privately
that the administration is taking
gamble that hostilities will not
be resumed in Korea.
