group Of prospective transit OPP
orators.

by Robert E. Mclaughlin, presi.
dent of the Board Of Commits
sioners after an hour-and-a.
half conference with Morris Fox,
president Of a local trucking
company. and his attorneys, Ed
ward F. and D. c. Colladay.
Mr.. Fox said he would confer

/ He said, This is the only
group which has met (the COM

and which has demonstrated
financial ability to go through
with the transaction.
I'VE feel the conference COM
Imittee wants the firmest rec
ommedation we can make and
I'VE feel it is justifiable."
Conferees Hold Key
Observers have pointed out
that if the conferees should re-
ject franchise terms requested
by National City Lines, it pre-
sumably would wreck the Ma

board of directors will hold its
regular monthly meeting at $3.50
am. Thursday, the observers
pointed out that Congressional
rejection of the National City

, tors free to seek a new buyer the
following day.

Chalk-Fox group had abandoned
their previous insistence on a
written stipulation that Capital

valued for fare-setting purposes

Quar|es Insists
Budget for AT
Is Sufficient
Testifies as Senate
Prepares to Vote on
81 Billion Boost
BY ia. OyLEARY

Air Force Secretary Donald A.
Quarles insisted today the adj
ministration's $15.6 billion Air
Force budget for 1857 is "suffi-
Gent" as the Senate prepared to
vote to boost it.
The Secretary also told a
Senate subcommittee that the
air power of the free world is
today "solidly sufficient" to pre-
vent war by discouraging any
potential aggressor land our
1857 program is designed to keep
it that way"
Despite this testimony, DEM
ocrats were confident they have
the votes to add $1.1 billion to
the defense bill this afternoon.
Republicans were making no
claim that they will carry their
substitute to limit the increase
to 100000. They said only that
the vote would be close.
Under questioning by the
Symington subcommittee Mr..
Quarles said he would agree with
earlier testimony about the
progress Russia has been making
in air power in the last few years.
Doesn't See Equality
But he insisted, 'it is not a
logical conclusion to Say they
have overtaken us or that they
will"
1.-THE fact that the second run
ner in a race is moving up does
not mean he will win the race, +"
Mr.. Quarles added.
Senator jackson, Democrat of
Washington, wanted to know if
the conclusions of the Secretary
are supported by the top military
men in the Air Force.
Secretary QuarleS replied that
they do not all agree with him.
He said the Chief of Staff, Gen.
Nathan F. Twining, and the Vice
Chief of Staff, agree with him.
But he added that he could not
say his views are supported by
the commanders of the Joint
Command.
Senator jackson called atten-
ton to earlier testimony by Gen.
Curtis lie May. head of the
Strategic Air Command, that as
of today he can carry out his
mission, but that by 1859 or
1860 I'VE cannot"
Statement Left Out
Senator Jackson told Mr..
Quarles. "You left that out of
your statement"
II left that out because it
is not my opinion or the opinion
of the Chief of Staff of the
Air Force" Mr.. Quarles replied.
The Secretary admitted that
Air Force appropriations will
have to be increased in 1858
to meet the desired 1859 and
1860 goals, but insisted no more
money is needed for the coming
year.
Senator Saltonstall asked the
Secretary what he thought would
be the strategic capability of the
Soviet air force by 1860:
The strategic capability of
the United States will still be
superior to any other country
according to our best information
OF the intentions of other coun-
tries" the witness replied.
Mr.. Quarles made it clear his
opinions were based on a COM
parison of the air power of the
free world and of the Commu-
mist bloc rather than a limited
comparison of the Russian and
the United States Air Forces. :
Meanwhile, Democrats were
confident of victory in their fight
to boost Air Force funds by more
than 81 billion as the Senate
prepared to vote on the issue this
afternoon.
Republicans, who want to hold
the increase to $500 million.
