Drops
Defense Chief
Cabinet Prepared
For Arms Review

BONN, Germany, Oct. 16 tP.--
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer
dropped Defense Minister Theo-
dor Blank from his cabinet to-
day in preparation for a sweep
ing review of West German
Irearmament plans.
Three other ministers also lost
their jobs.
Mr. Blank, who has spent
nearly six years planning the
new armed forces to strengthen
the North Atlantic alliance de-
lenses. was replaced by Franz
Josef Strauss, Al, the atomic de-
velopmcnt minister.
Mr.. Strauss is known to favor
a thorough revamping of re-
armament plans. An energetic
Bavarian. he has apparently been
put in place of Mr.. Blank, a
trade unionist, to iron out the
snags to meet public criticism.
"A general election is coming up
in 1857.
Mr.. Strauss is reported to con-
slider Mr.. Blanks buildup plans
are overambitious. He said re-
Gently that 100000 well-trained
troops were preferable to $780,

conscripts.
The revised plans may lead to
a postponement Of the unpop-
ular draft, now set to start next
April.
Military experts consider that
would inevitably mean that West
Germany would be unable to
meet it's commitment to provide
5000 men for the North Allan
tic Alliance (NATO) by 1860.

Democrats Confident
The Democrats have no hest

Stevenson. Their estimates Of
the margin of victory range
from $4,000 to 100000. Most
objective observers, however
while admitting that Mr.. Ste
venson seems to be in the lead
content themselves with saying
that Stevenson has a safe

a news conference that a mill
tary mission from his country
accompanied the weapons to
train the Jordanians to use them.
He said more arms consignments
from Syria would reach Jordan
later this month and early in
November.
Syrian Ambassador Fouad
Kadamani said the arms ship
ment began moving into Jordan
after midnight and was still
coming this morning. He called
the weapons an unconditional
gift from the Syrian people to
help defend Jordan's borders,
which he termed the first Arab
line of defense against Israeli
attacks.
Helps Clear Atmosphere
The decision to hold off on the
planned reinforcement of Jor-
dams army by 5000 Iraqi troops
was reported by the Amman
newspaper AL Jihad. 1t helped to
clear the atmosphere in Amman,
where war fears had mounted
after Israeli Premier David Ben
Gurion warned his government
reserved its rights Of freedom
of action if the Iraqis crossed
into the neighboring Arab king
dom.
A Jordan government spokes-
man said King Hussein and
Iraqi Crown Prince Abdul Illah,
in talk in Amman which ended
today, had agreed the Iraqi
troops would be stationed just
outside Jordan's borders, ready
to move in Immediately If Jor-
dan asked for help in an emer-
gency.
IF the Jews attack Jordan, /"
Iraqi Ambassador Baheddin Uri
told a reporter, I'VE are ready
with immediate assistance If re-
quested."
Although the holdoff on the
Iraqi troop movement eased pub
lie feeling in Israel, an Israeli
Foreign Office spokesman said
his government views the sit
uation still with seriousness"
1--WE do not believe this Is the
final stage of the Iraqi plan, -
he continued. I'VE remain as
ever on the alert"
Egypt AsIo Alarmed
Earlier Iraqi plans to send
troops to strengthen Jordan's
government against collapse re-
portedly had Western approval.
The United States and Britain
were said to feel the Iraqis would
serve as a stabilizing influence
during countrywide elections
next Sunday.
Israel, however. saw the move
as a direct threat to her.
1t also caused alarm in Egypt,
where officials appeared to view
such action as an Iraqi attempt
to take over Egypt's kingpin po-
sition in the Arab world.
Israel remained in readiness
and ordered air raid sirens test
ed in Tel Aviv and the six sur
rounding communities.
The Israeli press generally de-
scribed Mr.. Ben Gurion's speech
to Parliament yesterday as mod
crate.

Brushing off in a few indirect
words Mr.. Stevenson's call fol

most attention to wooing the
votes of Minnesota farmers in q
speech prepared for delivery in
Minneapolis this afternoon.

For st. Paul, Mr.. Eisenhower
confined his prepared remarks
to a non-partisan appeal for ''re-
newal of the American vision

imosity and contrived fears" to
help build world peace. out OF
respect for the late Archbishop
John Gregory Murray whose flu
neral was being held there
today.
In nearby Minneapolis, the
President pulled no punches in
assailing the Democratic presi-
dental candidate on farm and
peace issues except to avoid men,
tioning Mr.. Stevenson's name.

both, and then I'll feel better"
The Presidents presence in

ulate a crusading spirit among

evidence in the 1852 campaign.
The rain is vastly needed by
Missouri farmers. Ninety of the

ture Benson, who has been in

Missouri farmers, in many

of low prices and curtailed farm

from the drought and inclined
to take it out on the administra-

that America take the lead in
efforts to end H-bomb tests
which he said may do the human
race "unmeasured damage"

points, Mr.. Stevenson said that

conference he had used the last
word" on his position that such
tests cannot be abandoned be-
cause Russia might not honor
any agreement to end them.

Britain on banning further ex-

Both Britain and Russia. he
added. "have declared their

Mr.. Stevenson declared:

Backed by Anderson
Mr.. Stevenson brought in
Chairman Anderson of the Sem

was feasible and wise to halt
such tests.
He summoned Senator Stuart
