There's something about old
soldiers when they surrender
to their memories of wars long
ago and comrades of those
days.
That was true clear back to
Ulysses the Greek who. home
at last in the dull routine at
Ithaca, still dreamed of the
life of a warrior "far on the
ringing plains of windy Troy"
Nor is the nostalgia comraderie
confined to ones own army.
An old soldier is an old SOL
dier. whatever the uniform. SO
it was many years after the
Civil War with Gen. Joe john
ston, the Confederate COM
mander. Against the admoni-
tion of friends, he took off his
hat and kept his head bare to
the cold, raw winds during the
funeral ceremonies for Gen.
William Tecumseh Sherman,
out of respect for his old foe
of the Georgia and North
Carolina campaign. Not long
after, he was dead Of pneu-
monia.
Gen, Sherman would have
removed his hat for me-" he
had said.
And so today we come to a
couple of old soldiers, our own
President and Marshal Georgi
M. Zhukov. who has become
Minister of Defense in the
newly organized Soviet regime.
Marshal Zhukov's re-emerg-
ence naturally made him the
subject of inquiry at the
Presidents weekly news con-
ference. The President and
he were known to have been
comrades and friends in the
allied occupation of Germany
Immediately after the war. and
the marshal had only recently
recalled an invitation from
then Gen. Eisenhower, back in
1916, to visit the United States.
He never got to make the trip,
though arrangements had
gone so far as the offer of the
Eisenhower plane and our
generals son as an aide.

President Eisenhower, De-
fense Secretary Wilson and
others probably were right
week ago when they decided
to cut down our ground forces
by 10000 men by 1856. But
today. after the changes in
the Soviet dictatorship, with
Nikita Khrushchev and the
marshals taking over, the sit
uation Is such that reduction
of our troops would involve a
serious risk unless we limit our
commitments in Western -Eu-
rope.
When the cuts were decided
on. the most serious military
danger spot was the Western
Pacific. Despite statements to
the contrary by some Army
men and a number of inter-
eSted politicians there was
little-if any-possibllity Of
our deploying ground forces
in that area.
The active opponents Of the
Chinese Communicative Ma
tionalists and South Koreans
have a total organized mil
itary force of about 100000
men. They have additional
manpower which needs Amer
ican supplies to make it into
an effective force. Hence It
would seem unnecessary for
us to contribute other than air
and naval power in the event
of an armed clash wFh the
Communists in the Pacific
theater.

eventuality that Chang Kai-
shek may be permitted to un-
dertake a counteroffensiye in

need American foot-soldlers.
All he needs Is transportation.
additional weapons and am
munition.
Direct Soviet intervention
with Russian troops was dis
counted after careful consid-
Grafton of their logistic prob
lens. Hence. there was some
justification when the admin
istration decided that for econ
omy sake our costly ground
forces should be reduced to a

Butler Proposes Plan
To End Opposition 10
Report on judiciary

A constitutional amendment
which he says would remove all
opposition to having the Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court
address Congress each year on
the state Of the judiciary was
proposed yesterday by Senator
Butler. Republican. Of Maryland.
Senator Butler. member of the
Senate Judiciary Committee,
would make members Of the Su-
preme Court ineligible to serve as
President or Vice President until
five years after leaving the high
court.
His proposal would provide for
mandatory retirement of MEM
bers of the Supreme Court and
lower Federal Courts at the age
of rs. at full pay.
Senator Butler introduced q
similar proposal in the last Con-
gress. 1t passed the Senate by a
vote Of So to 10 last May but
never came out Of the House
Judiciary Committee.

The Senator said:
1.-The adoption Of this pro-
posal by the people Of the

alted post they hold to advance

we have had few such justices

deterrent to any possible po-
litical decisions and preserve
forever our traditional concepts

provision would increase the

"This amendment also is de-
signed to protect the highest
