EquuI Rights
BuIwurk for the Free
World Our National
Defense

The military strength of the
United States has been a key
factor in the preservation of
world peace during the past four
years. We are determined to
maintain that strength so long
as our security and the peace Of
the world require it.
| This administration, within six
months after President Eisen-
hower's Inauguration, ended the
war in Korea by concluding an
honorable armistice. The lesson
of that war and our lack of pre-
paredness which brought it about
will not be forgotten. Such mis-
takes must not be repeated.
AS we maintain and strengthen
the security of this Nation, we
shall, consistent with this adj
ministration's dedication to
peace, strive for the acceptance
of realistic proposals for disarm-
ament and the humanitarian
control of weapons of mass de-
truction.
Our country's defense posture
is today a visible and powerful
deterrent against attack by an
enemy, from any quarter, at any
time.
We have the strongest striking
force in the world-in the air
on the Sea-and magnificent
supporting land force in our
Army and Marine Corps. Such
visible and powerful deterrents
must continue to include:
az A jet-powered, long range,
strategic Air Force, and a tacti-
cal Air Force of the fastest and
very latest type aircraft, with
striking capability superior to
any other;
b. The most effective guided
and ballistic missiles;
- A modern Navy with a
powerful naval aircraft arm pre-
pared to keep the sea lanes open
to meet any assignment;
d. An Army whose mobility
and unit firepower are without
equal;
e. Bases. strateg.cally dis
persed at home and around the
world. essential to all these OPP
erations.
We will maintain and improve
the effective strength and state
of readiness of all these armed
forces.
To achieve this objective, we
must depend upon attracting to,
and retaining in our military
services vigorous and we'll
trained manpower, and upon
continuously maintaining in re-
serve, an enthusiastic and we'll
informed group of men and
women. This will require incen-
tiveS that will make armed Serv-
ice careers attractive and re-
warding. A substantial start has
been made toward bolStering the
rewards and benefits that &C
company a military career. We
must continue to provide them.
In order that American youth
| in our armed services shall be
provided with the most modern
weapons. we have supported. and
will continue to support an eff
fective and well-directed pro-
gram of research and develop
ment, stated by men of the
highest caliber and ability in this
field. There is no substitute for
the best where the lives of our
men and the defense of our ma
ton are concerned.
We fully appreciate the i'm
portance of scientific knowledge
and its application particularly
in the military field.
We pledge ourselves to stimu-
late and encourage the educa-
ton of our young people in the

Sewer Cost
May Be More
Than Plan

Rockville's Mayor and Council
were informed Tuesday by City
Manager John MARYLAND that the
cost to the city for its share OF
the Cabin John trunk sewer line
would probably exceed the $780,
600 bond issue for that project.
{ But the city will not be in the
red, said Mr.. MARYLAND if it gets
4 proportion, estimated at $780,
900 of a possible $250,000 Federal
grant-in-aid for which the sewer
project qualities under the anti
pollution of streams act.
Rockville is paying for an IS
inch pipe line, engineering and
tight-of-ways under \ an agree
ment with the Washington SUI
burban Sanitary Commission on
the total cost of 1891 900 WSSC
pays for the difference between
the IS inch and the larger pipe
that Is being used.
A strange case of two sets of
Mayor and Council minutes, one
pasted on top of the other was
revealed this week.
An agreement by the city on
April 8, 1854 to surface 200 feet
pf Redding Avenue with the
Builder of Doth Century Homes,
Inc. putting in curb and gutter
was found in the minutes of that
date with another agreement un-
der 1t in which the city would
pay only half the cost of surfac-
ing estimated to be around $1,000.
1t came to light this week when
the city was called by one OF
the property owners to fill in the
holes Of the street which has
curb and gutter but no paving.
Since none of the present mem
bers OF the council were in office
at that time, the Mayor and Coun
Gil is requesting the complaining
property owner to appear with
his information in order to clear
up the puzzle.
City Attorney David Cahoor
was authorized to negotiate with
Walker and Dunlap, brokers fol
property on East Middle Lane fol
the front foot assessment Of inn
proving that street.
The city has been in the process
of an exchange of land with Wal
ker and Dunlap in order to move
the right-of-way to straighter
Middle Lane for the past year.
With the exchange almost com
pleted, the real estate. firm
brought up the matter ofsan ole
agreement with the city to waive
the assessment in return for 9
previous gift of land.
