two strongest Western allies to
match its mood.
why does not Britain follow
the Soviet example since so
much is being said about the
Gripping effects of the military
burden on Britain's economy?"
Moscow radio asked.

the House of Commons and out

follow the Soviet example is be-

Sistence it is up to the
West to show by deeds. not

| The Communist Party news
paper Pravda in Moscow made a
similar call on the United States
and ridiculed Secretary of State
Dulles for his reaction to the
Soviet announcement.
Suspicion AssaiIed
1T is clear to any child that
the less men in the armed forces
the more workers available for
construction of new homes, ma
chimes. roads. hospitals and
schools" Pravda said. What
has Dulles seen in these motives
that is criminal? What is sus-
picious or dangerous about it?'
Mr.. Dulles has said the cut
back would not markedly reduce
Soviet military power and added,
the obvious explanation is the
need for greater manpower in
industry and agriculture.
Moscow radio criticized the
United States for pressuring its
friends to maintain Gripping
military burdens"
Britain halted the draft OF
slightly disabled men last night.
II was seen as a first step in a
plan announced earlier TO cut its
armed forces by 100000 men in
the next five years. Britain also
plans to reduce military spend
ing by $40 million next year.
The plan was disclosed a month
ago. long before the Soviet am

Lund, william Bendix, Keefe
Brasselle and Richard Boone
The only female on the premises
is q very heroic one of World
War II named the USS Franklin
She is identified only as a United
States Navy aircraft carrier in
the movie. but it obviously was
inspired by a terrible, terrifying
and ultimately triumphant night
the Franklin's crew brought her
through.
Director Lewis Seller is bust
nesslike but not hurried as he
steams westward through Crane
Wilbur's screenplay taking the
carrier to its rendezvous with

Of this type were more abundant.
Somebody was always having a
rendezvous with destiny.)
He introduces you gradually
to carrier life and to the crew.
There Is first. the new chaplain
GunO, who relates the tale.
There is the tough boatswain
(Bendix). There is the sullen
seaman (Brasselle). who is al
ways in trouble but isn't really
bad. There Is the carriers cap
tain tBoone). who is determined
to pound his crew into fighting
trim.
Most of this is fairly routine,
except for the setting. for which
an actual carrier was used in
much Of the footage. It is when
the vessel joins the task force
steaming toward Japan that the
action picks up in Battle Sta
tions."
The films Columbia borrowed
from Navy and newsreel files
top anything newly made for the
picture. There are some tremen-
dously fascinating shots, some
taken Of the Franklin, others
apparently taken aboard her as
she went through her actual or
deal. Fascinating they are and
horrifying, too. as explosion after
explosion rocks and rips the ship.
Billows Of flaming aviation gas
roar skyward and ammunition
blasts in all directions.
AS the Franklin's crew did in
her day. Boone and his crew
bring their carrier through the
night, with some help from the
rest Of the task force. Then they
turn eastward. with an enemy
