As Secretary Of Army

SO doing I can now only ac-
cept with deep regret your re-
quest to resign about the end of
July
Cites Personal Gratitude
CAS- Secretary of the Army
during the past two-and-one-half
years. you have contributed ex-
tenSively to the vital task of
Ireshaping our military forces to
conform to the conditions of our
time. Secretary Wilson and I
have been grateful for your de-
votion and strong support in
carrying it through.
"As you return to private
affairs. you carry with you my
personal gratitude for your fine
service along with every wish for
your health and happiness in
the years ahead"
Mr.. Brucker, former Governor
of Michigan, was born in Sagi-
nav, Mich, and will be 81 years
old tomorrow. He is married
and the father of one child.
In World War I Mr.. Brucker
served in France with the 42d
Rainbow Division and took
part in engagements including
Chateau Thierry, st. Mihiel and
Meuse- se-Argonne. He was awarded
the Silver Star.
Governor From 1898
A graduate of the University
OF Michigan, he served as prose-
cutting attorney of his home
county and later as Michigan
attorney general. He was Gov
ernor from 1881 to 1888. Since
then, he has been a practicing

can National convention.
AS Defense Department gen.
erai counsel, Mr.. Brucker has
been charged with general super
vision of the Pentagon's secu-

been made and that he expected
no change which would shift |
the emphasis to lesser degree |
of protection of the security in
terest of the Government"

ficials, two consulting engineer:
and the Roosevelt Association
Mr.. Spencer excluded the press
because he said he wanted those
present to talk more freely"
Views of officials
Later, officials said, these were
the general positions taken by
those present:
Mr.. Hagedorn, Roosevelt AS
sociation-Favored a span across
the north tip of Roosevelt is
land. Strongly opposed the new
District plan showing a cross
ing at the islands center.
Harry T. Thompson, National
Capital Parks - Favored the
northern island crossing. Also
favored"a tunnel at the Constitu-
tion avenue location south of
the island, a proposal vetoed by
the Budget Bureau.
Mr.. Finley, Fine Arts Com
mission-Favored the northern
bridge. and called for a vote in
favor of it.
Mr.. Bartholomew. Planning
Commission-Indorsed the north
efn over the island, but strongly
contested District plans showing
it connecting with E street NV.
He urged a District connection
much farther north.

lington County highway engineer

Senator Mccarthy demanded
whether John Adams, then Army
counsel, would be permitted to
testify freely" in connection
with the promotion of DR.. Irv-
ing Peress. labeled by the Sena-
tor as a Fifth Amendment Com
n1unist."
Mr.. Brucker laughed at the
question and Senator Mccarthy
angrily told him:
There's nothing funny about
it Mr.. Brucker You may
laugh at it, but I will not"
At that point, Mr.. Brucker
chuckled again and told the
Senator that a presidential di-
rective would prevent certain
testimony by Mr.. Adams which
the Senator was seeking.

Rheumatic Fever
Curb Is Predicted
Within 20 Years

Rheumatic fever. which causes
more longtime crippling illness
lin children than any other dis
ease, may be placed in a corner
by medicine in the next 10 to
I20 years
The hopeful prediction was
sounded yesterday by q panel of
medical authorities who dis
cussed the problem at a meet
ing of the Washington Heart
Association.
Penicillin has been the big
weapon IN the hands of doctors
concerned with the disease, par
ticularly in the treatment of
certain sore throats which pre-
Iceed attacks of the fever.
The panel discussion followed
the associations annual business
neeting and saw the presenta-
ton of Hercules Heart" statu-

make any such further studies
as the basis for any agreement
with Senator Stennis. Gov. Lane
said that after the Capitol meet
ing the Commissioners simply
told Mr.. Finley that they would
examine any further ideas" Mr..
Finiey's group has on the matter.
| District officials made plain
that they weren't about to go
along with a plan costing so
much more than the $24.5 mil
lion Constitution avenue span.
Has Reservations
Mr., Bartholomew said he had
considerable reservations about
the fiat reimbursement of the
Constitution avenue bridge be-
cause he was afraid it would i'm
| ply that span was viewed as the
only solution to Washington's S
bridge problems.
He noted that when the COM
mission first approved the bridge
last summer. it also called for
the Reaches Run crossing and
other bridge improvements. He
said he wanted it understood
that is still the commission S
position.
The vote was taken, however,
after Mr.. Remon declared:
II feel that approval now of
the Constitution avenue bridge
is the current solution to this
whole problem. What comes
after is another matter"
If Congress does permit con-
struction of the Constitution ave-
nue. span it will be over, objec-
tions from the Fine Arts Com
mission primarily. That was pre-
cisely the action taken last year,
however, when Congress author
lied the bridge.
The main compromise pro-
posal-a $43.2 million span over
the north tip of Roosevelt Is
land-was greeted enthusiast
cally by Federal Planning, Park
and Fine Arts Commission of
f1cials and the Theodore Roose-
welt Association at a closed door
meeting of virtually all the prin-
cipals in the bridge squabble.
But it hit heavy opposition
from Virginia highway men, be-
cause of both traffic handling
and cost questions. And the
District Commissioners Indicated
they would not go along because
of its excessive cost to taxpayers
of the city.
Yesterday was as frustrating
a day, as far as q solution is
concerned, as any during the

matter in whatever manner was
satisfactory to you and the Sec

Wilson and I believe I can ac-

of me before the end of July
If this is satisfactory to you, ]

will work out the precise effective
date of my resignation with Mr.
Wilson who, I am sure, will keep
you informed.
Expresses Admiration
"I cannot submit my reSigna-
|tion without expressing my pro-
found admiration of your lead
|ership during these last two and
la half years and my deep ap-
|preciation of the opportunity you

In accepting the resignation,
the President wrote:
Although I have known for
some time that personal reasons
would not allow you to extend
your service as Secretary of the
Army indefinitely, I am indeed
sorry that you find it necessary
at this time to return to private
life In view of your co-opera-

the northern end OF the island
had been supported by the Fine
Arts Commission. Federal Parks
and Roosevelt Island officials
Planning Commission Chairman
Harland Bartholomew said he
also thought some acceptable
plan for that route might be
worked out. but opposed connec-
tions shown in the city highway
plan.
Was Under Instructions
Douglas Brinkley, District
highway planner, stressed to the
planners that this plan had been
drawn by his Office under instruc-
tions in the search for an agree
ment. But he emphasized that
city highway officials do not sup
port 1t and that he did not think
any acceptable plan could be
worked out in that area.
1--WE don't believe there is any
good substitute location for the
Constitution avenue bridge" Mr..
Brinkley declared.
A specific Endorsement of the
Constitution avenue span then
was voted. with John A. Remon.
Washington citizen member, and
Assistant Engineer Commissioner
Harry Hansen arguing for it
most strongly. Mr.. Wirth was
the only dissenter In the voting.
Mr.. Bartholomew emphasized
that while he went along, he
did not feel it was wise to keep
concentrating traffic in the Lin
coin Memorial area" and urged
early construction of the Reaches
Run bridge.
Just before the meeting broke
up, Mr.. Bartholomew received a
phone call from Mr.. Finley who
had attended today's Capitol
Hill meeting with the Commits
sioners.
Agree to Further Studies
Mr.. Bartholomew came back
and told the planners Mr.. Finley
advised me that the District
Commissioners will agree to
make further studies Of a
bridge over the north end of
Roosevelt Island and wants to
know what our position is.
In view of this, the planners
resolved to consider any further
plan but did not overturn their
previous rejection of the $43.5
million scheme presented by Mr..
Brlnkley.
