Doris Fleeson-

President Eisenhower has
struck at the pretender to his
power and challenged Repub-
licans in Congress to enact the
Eisenhower program or face
deserved defeat.
It was anticipated that the
President would indorse Sec
retary of State Dulles who had
earlier attacked both Senator
McCarthy's interference in
foreign policy and the whole
theory of iSolationism for
which Mccarthy is a spokes-
man.
That the President would
conclude with a warning to
his party that it would stand
or fall on it's legislative ac-
complishments was a stirring
and unexpected whiplash to
that Endorsement. 1t is an

Secretary Of Defense Wilson'S
order that the Army attempt
a drastic cut in its strength runs
counter to the October recon-
mendationS of the Joint Chiefs
Of Staff, it appeared today.
Mr.. Wilson has given the Army
orders to see if it can get along
with 1,281,000 officers and men
in the fiscal year beginning next
July l. The chiefs figured the
ground forces should have some
LIS million-its present strength.
Presently, Secretary of the
Army Stevens and Gen. Matthew
B. Ridgway, Army Chief of Staff
are maintaining steadfastly
that the ground forces cannot
cut to the figure given by Mr..
Wilson as a target" without
destroying combat effectiveness.
The chiefs recommendation
came to light IN a speech in
New York last night by Admiral
Arthur w. Radford, their chair
man. He spoke of an interim
look" at the armed forces by
his group and failed to mention
the new look" or complete sur
vey which the administration
ordered after it ousted the old
chiefs last August.
Oppose Sudden Change.
Admiral Radford said the
chiefs were fatty opposed to
any sudden and drastic change
in the defense system, believing
the best plans will come by evo-
luton.
This fits in with the comment
Of a top administration official
that there's certainly been no
new look as the President
promised there would be-"
He added that Secretary of the
Treasury Humphrey and Budget
Director Dodge were still "look-
ing for a new look"
In his speech Admiral Radford
reviewed the continuing military
threat of Russia; said it was
within the power of small
group of men in the Kremlin" to
decide on a shooting war; noted
the Russians have a three-prong
system for gaining objectives-
-politico-economic, military and
psychological-propaganda = and
that if one is turned back
another is used. Then he
announced:
''In view of these, and other
planning factors. the new Joint
Chiefs of Staff considered it
absolutely mandatory that we
not make any recommendations
for radical changes-especially
not on any overnight basis.
All Factors Considered.
"In discussing this with Sec
retary Wilson, we agreed that the
best defense plans and programs
will come about through evo-
luton, if we plan deliberately
and with wisdom. We further
agreed that. even though our
military plans are based prim-
arily on military factors, we
must also take into account a
wider range of policy and
economic factors. as we'll as the
latest chronological developments
Therefore, in accordance with
our established national policies
and commitments, the Joint
Chiefs of staff submitted in
October their recommendations

to be extremely careful in his
language or he could easily
have appeared to be repudiat-
ing Mr.. Brownell. The kind
of language some Mccarthy
foes would have liked to see
would have obliged him to dis
charge his Attorney General.
A very interesting thing
happened later in the press
conference which showed that
the President had been hav-
ing some kind of heart-to-
heart talk with the Attorney
General.
The President was asked if
he knew of recent Democratic
charges that Attorney Gen.
eral Brownell had hamstrung
some Investigations of crime
and politics in various West
ern States. The President re-
piled with a good deal of en-
phasis and no smile whatever
that he had talked to Mr..
Brownell who would soon re-
lease the facts on that. He
added that he would go after
corruption anywhere. Then,
seeming to realize he was
speaking strongly, he hastened
to say that his confidence in
the Attorney General was ex-
actly the same as his conf
dence in other members of his
cabinet.
During this exchange, more
than one old Army type in the
audience felt that he was back
in ETO or NATO where a su-
preme commander of the
allied forces named Eisen-
hover used to let matters de-
velop just so long and then

Operational Cost Factors.
The reasons the temporary
buildings cost more to operate,
they said, include:
Floor maintenance: The sur
face is serviced, repaired and re-
placed periodically.
Window problems: There is
more caulking required around
the windows, in an effort to make
them weatherproof.
Snoring: Because the build
ings were erected hastily in war
time, they settle in places and
must be jacked up to keep them
on an even keel.
Walls: Cracks appear in the
walls. There is warpage from the
weather, as thin construction

MIAMI. Feb. 14.-At this time

principally by the $150.000 in
prize money being hung up by
the association for the McLeh-
nan and Widener Handicaps. In
the first OF these, after being
prominently placed for six fur
longs, he tired badly in the last
three-eights of a mile, but the
performance was good one.
First Start in Months.
Last Saturcay's McLennan
was the first race for One Count
in about four months and he
definitely needed such a tight
ener.
Because of the rains and the
off-track which followed, /

wanted with him. in preparation
for the race" Trainer Oscar
White said" I expected him to
tire and he did"
However, the effort should do
him much good and. with that
one under his belt, he'll be
tougher to handle at a mile and
a quarter in the Widener. The
extra. furlong will be in his
favor and. with a promise Of
plenty of pace. look for him to
make it mighty interesting for
Crafty Admiral and Spartan

to fear"
