BY GARNETT ID. HORNER
Star Stan Correspondent

AUGUSTA, Ca, April IA
President Eisenhower today
urged Congress to authorize
United States membership In u
proposed 34-nation world trade
organization to advance free
world cooperation in the "strug-
gle against Communist domina-
ton"
known as the Organization
for Trade Cooperation, the new
agency would administer and
police the fair trade rules estab-
lished through the General
Agreement on Tariffs and Trade.
in which this country has been
a leading participant for the last
seven years.
Declaring that the reasons for
American membership in the
OTC are overwhelming, MIR.
Eisenhower told Congress in q
special message today that fall
ure to join would play directly
into the hands Of the Commu-
nists."
He sent the message from his
vacation headquarters at the,
Augusta National Golf Club
where he plars to stay until next
Wednesday

He arranged a conference this
afternoon with Senator George.

work as chairman of the Senate

George we're purely social" II
provided opportunity. however,
for discussion of such issues az
the Folmosa problem as well as
the Administrations foreign
trade program.
Proposed American member
ship in the OTC is a separate
issue from the administration
program for revision and extern
sion of the Reciprocal Trade
Agreements Act. although the
two have been linked by op-
ponents of the reciprocal trade
legislation now pending before
the Senate Finance Committee.
Asks Role for U. s.
Instead of asking mere
Senate ratification of the OTC
agreement, the President urged
both Houses to pass legislation
authorizing American member
ship.
The general agreement on
tariffs and trade, which the pro-
posed new OTC would adminis-
ter. came into being in 1947.
Basically, it is mutilateral
trade agreement incorporating
tariff concessions and rules
against unjustif1ed trade restric-
tions similar to those which the
United States had been negotiat-
ing with individual countries
through bilateral reciprocal
trade agreements.
Mr.. Eisenhower told Congress
today that particiation in this
general agreement enables the
United States to obtain more
tariff concessions on its exports
than would be possible from
bilateral negotiations. He said
concessions obtained so far

world strength is in air power,
sea power and a vast arsenal OF
atomic weapons. Consequently,
we must rely on the manpower
resources of our NATO and other
allies, and our own forces already
deployed overseas, to Withstand
the initial onslaught of an enemy
launching another world war.
Reserves Seen Vital
Many other factors are In
volved, of course. But they all
add up to the thinking that
Army strength can be kept
safely at a minimum as long as
the country maintains adequate
reserves. a strong continental de.
fense and the ability through air
power to hit back devaStatinglv
at an attacker.
Therefore, the administra-
tiOn'S military program Is ell
phasizing these things. Already
before Congress is a request to
set up a national reserve plan
under which the services, and
the Army in particular, would be
backed UP by a reserve force OF
5 million men.
The House Armed Services
Committee now is struggling over
the plans several controversial
features. One would permit
young men II and ,18 years OF
age to volunteer for active duty
fo1 six months and then spend
eight or more years in the active
reserves. Another would require
active participation in reserve
training even from service and
combat veterans.

Will the next President of the

boil of the partial mobilization

If necessary.
While some cuts are proposed
in the Navy and Marine Corps,
the most controversial are those
scheduled for the Army. BY
June. 1856, Army strength is
scheduled to drop to 1.027. 900
nearly 100000 less than today's
strength.
Certain to come up during con-
sideration of the manpower cuts
is the broader question: Are we
buying enough security?
There are members of Congress
who fear the answer is no. Mr..
Eisenhower, on the other hand,
is convinced that we are, and
he has stuck to that opinion
despite the critical developments

Pentagon Argument
Behind the thinking that a
reduction in Army strength at
this time will not endanger the
country's security are some per-
Suasive considerations.
One of the major considera-
tions is this: Even with the cut
back, says the Pentagon plan
ners, the Army will have avail
able all the men it could deploy
to battle areas in the first sew
eral months after the outbreak
of war. In that time reserve
forces called up under total
mobilization could be organized
for combat. SO there is no need
to maintain an extremely large
active Army as long as the man
power it would need in case Of
war is available in reserve forces.
Another big consideration rec
ognizes the collective nature OF
the battle against communism.

Unbeaten Boston Doge became
a doubtful starter in Saturdays
Chesapeake Stakes at Laurel
when it was learned today that
the colt suffered a slight injury
in winning the Governors Gold
Cup on Bowies closing program
for his 10th straight victory.
The 3-year-old son Of The
Doge-Boston Lady was struck by
another horses hoof behind the
right knee and scraped along the
tendon. Some of the swelling
had gone down this morning, but
there was evidence that Boston
Doge could not be breezed until
later in the week. Obviously, he
would not be at his best If he
was sent to the post for his first
distance test.
Trainer Frank Andolino said
at Laurel this morning that the
injury proved the colts courage,
for otherwise he might have
stopped running after being in
jured. He performed like a
champion in running 6 furlongs
in 1:103s, and was breezing at
the finish.
II Boston Doge passes up the
