Program
Shifts Scored

NEW YORK, Dec. 8 (Pl.-
Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor. Army
chief of staff, urges a more
stable defense program. saying
that sudden changes in the arms
budget can throw our military
machine out of gear.
Speaking last night at the an
Inual dinner of the American
Ordinance Association, Gen
Taylor said the defense pro-
gram should be designed for
the long pull and be unaffected,
in its main lines. by short-term
adjustments in foreign and do
|mestic policies.
The association presented
Gen. Taylor with its Crozier
Gold Medal for outstanding SER
vice in the field Of military pre-
Iparedness.
President Eisenhower sent a
message to the association,
'praising it for "immeasurable
contributions to national Sc
curity."
In his talk. Gen. Taylor re-
called that nothing went right
on Pearl Harbor day. including
dictation to a War Department
stenographer.
He told a story about what
happened on December Z. l941.

when he was a major in the
office of Gen. George c. Mar
shall. then the Army's Chief of
Staff.
At the end of the busy day. he
related, Gen. Marshall buzzed
for a stenographer to dictate his
first war communique to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, reporting his
estimate of the situation after
the japanese attack on Pearl
Harbor.
The only stenographer avail
able. Gen. Taylor said, was the
prettiest one in the Office. but
also the one who seemed to
make the most errors"
In due course. Miss Jones Il

typewriter and began to type. :"
Gen. Taylor said. After Is
minutes Gen. Marshall buzzed
and asked for his dictation. l
returned to Miss Jones and
asked her how she was doing
and she said. oh, quite well, ma
jor.'

not well. So / returned and

tary lawyers-l,300 of them

lishment.
Certainly no partner, however
senior. in any private law Arm
would ever attempt detailed ad-
ministrative supervision over
even 100 lawyers, he comment
ed. Such an assignment would
leave the general counsel no
time for his real job. even If he
had a substantial staff to help
him"
He was unwilling to place
judge advocate generals, who are
military officers. under the civil
ian general counsels as recon-
mended. He said it was impor-
tant to preserve the prestige of
the Judge advocates as admin
istrators Of military justice.
.Unwise Move
Mr.. Wilson agreed that there
should be the legal career service
for civilian Government attor-
neys. But he said he thought 1t
unwise for all Of them to be adj
ministered by the Justice Depart
ment instead of their own de-
partments and agencies.
In line with a recommenda =
ton, he ordered the Navy and
Air Force to participate fully in
and share the expenses Of the
Army's 4-year-old law school at
the University Of Virginia in
Charlottesville. The Navy al
ready is participating to some
degree.
The Secretary concurred in the
plan for establishment of a SAL
airy classification system with a
top for attorney Of $l7,500 a year.

The commission recommended
that all Government attorneys
be prohibited from engaging in
outside legal practice except for

son thought this would be "un-
duly narrow and should be
broadened to include civic,

He then advised that he would
issue an order to this effect

work for the Defense establish
ment.

land r. Hughes. Mr.. Wilson
turned down a proposal that
the Pentagon add one assistant
secretary each in the Army,
Navy and Air Force departments
for the sole purpose of riding
herd on Defense attorneys and
generally administering legal
matters.
Apparently taking notice of
some congressional criticism of
the burgeoning Pentagon bu-
reaucracy, which has jumped
from eight secretaryships to 80
in the last eight years. he wrote
the House, and Senate Armed
Services committee that:
In view Of the recent increase
in assistant secretaries in each
department the
Department of Defense is not
to endeavor to obtain
the rank Of assistant secretary
for the general counsels."
The Hoover Commission rec
