Little Possibility
Of Raising Doriu
Seen by Experts

NEW YORK. Aug. 8 (P.-
The big question in maritime
circles today is whether the
Italian liner Andrea Doria can
be raised from its watery grave
$50 feet beneath the Atlantic.
4 A spokesman for the American
Hull Insurance Syndicate de-
scribeS the 29,000-ton luxury
liner as an absolute, total loss"
completely unsalvageable. The
Andrea Doria was built at a cost
of $29 million.
One thing is certain: s No
precedent exists for raising a
vessel the size of the sunken
queen of the Italian merchant
marine.
Assuming the work could be
done. experts say the cost would
make salvaging hardly worth
while.
The greatest salvage project
IN history, so termed by the
United States Navy, was the
Irighting of the 79,280-ton French
liner Normandie after it capsized
at a 79-degree angle following a
fire at its New York pier in 1912.
This was an $11 million opera
ton that took 16 months in the
relatively sheltered North River
waterfront of Manhattan. Fifty
specially trained divers were

strength.
Il do know that they have
ample people now to do the job"
he replied.
The Air Force now has 916, 900
men, $4,000 under its authorized
ceiling.
Quarles Poses Sufficiency Angle
Air Secretary Quarles, in a
speech last Saturday in New
Orleans, said There comes a
time in the course of increasing
our air power that we must
make a determination of suf-
f1ciency."
He said he returned to the
military service their proposals
that they spend a combined
$48.5 billion in fiscal 1858, tell
ing them they were "unrealistic"
and that such sum could not
be handled without a great big
increase in taxation and prob
ably some controls" on the
economy.
Mr.. Wilson repeated an earlier
denial-Which also has been
made by President Eisenhower

By JOHN A. GILES

The Suez Canal situation will
bring about no material change
in this Nations military man
power and spending plans.
This was made clear by De-
Tense Secretary Wilson at a
Pentagon news conference yes
terday as he declared the United
States must have "a stable. long
range defense plan not affected
by rippleS" in the world
situation"
1--WE can't flip up and down
with such relatively small
things" Mr.. Wilson asserted, re-
lferring to the Suez crisis.
Emphasizes Relative View
While he maintained it would
not be the right Interpretation"
to say that he minimized the
Importance of the Suez Canal
or the impasse that has erupted
there, he called it nevertheless
"a relatively small thing"
BY that, he said, he meant
that hopefully. it would be a
local friction and not something
that involves the East and
West"
He said the United States
should exhaust all its means to
bring about the fair settlement
rather than wave big stick
and threaten people"
This is what Secretary of
State Dulles is trying to ac-
complish, he added.
Some Cuts Probable
The Secretary repeated pre-
dlctions. which he made first at
his Quantico (Va) conference
on June %, that there probably
VIII be some reduction in mill
tary manpower in the fiscal year
beginning July l as more en-
phasls is placed on nuclear
weapons and airpower. He also
forecast some increases in de-
tense spending over this years
S38 billion, largely due to higher
costs, including steel.
But he emphatically denied
that any firm decisions have been
made on just how much man
power will be cut or how much
spending will go up.
1t was clearly indicated that
the manpower cuts also will apply
to the-Air Force as the increased
power and variety of nuclear
weapons and guided missiles
make such reductions possible.
At Quantico. Mr.. Wilson was

cut in the armed forces by 1860
The New York Times has re-
ported that Admiral Arthur w
Radford. chairman of the joint
Chiefs of staff, proposed such a
cut. But Mr.. Wilson repeatedly
asserted at his conference that
the four-star Admiral had made
no such recommendation as far
as he knew.
II think there was some dis
cussion along that line" Mr.
Wilson said, but he added he
wanted to wash it out as any
reasonable forecast of anything
that will be planned definitely
He was asked if he could in
dictate the grange" of man power
cuts that could be expected.
II cannot" he replied. 1T still
is too nebulous-there has beer
no decision from the Joint Chiefs
and it is still under review"
Praises State Of Readiness
Mr.. Wilson said this Natior
has a very powerful military
organization" He added that cit.
state of readiness is of a high
order"

The petition continued:

in a position to pass safely port

but it was impossible to avoid

CarelessnesS Charged
The petition accused the Doria
of carelessness, failing to keep a
proper lookout. speeding, veering
without warning and failing to
sound proper signals.
Giuseppe Ali. general manager
here for the Italian Line, said in
a statement:
The SWedish-American Line
does not deny that the Stock
holm was far off the usual and
agreed track for eastbound YES
sells. 1t admits that the Stock
holm was proceeding at high
speed, l8 knots !. :, and at least
tacitly admits that she was not
blowing fog signals. although
everyone knows that there was
considerable fog at the time.
1T admits also that the
the Stockholm made severe
turn to the right without sound
ing any whistle signal such as is
required by the rules to prevent
collision and which, of course
was the act on its part that
actually brought about the
collision"

the peace abroad and freedom
at home" he declared.
When asked to comment on
some reports that United States
troop strength in Europe would
be cut, Mr.. Wilson said that
when the NATO organization
was set up many planners"
were moved in. and II am sure
if we looked over them now some
of them could come home"
1t is in the headquarters and
planning organizations that cuts
can be expected, Mr.. Wilson said.
But he added that combat forces
also could be streamlined in the
light of development of new
weapons. He said he could not
forecast any numbers to be cut.

The opposing statements came
as preliminary to court actions
that will argue blame for the col
lision. Millions of dollars in dam
age claims are at stake.
81 Dead or Missing
Fifty-two persons are dead or
unaocounted for in the July rs
collision south of Nantucket
Island, Mass. The Doria sank,
but more than 1000 of those
aboard were rescued. The Stock
holm suffered a crushed bow, but
crept back to port here for re-
pairs.
The SWedish-American Line
filed legal papers in Federal
Court asking that the firm not
be held responsible for airy
losses, damages or injuries re-
sulting from the crash. At the
same time the line said it would
sue the Doria owners for dam
ages.
A spokesman for the Italian
Line said the court action by
the Stockholm owners was lob
viously made in anticipation of
an Italian Line suit to recover
damage resulting from the sink
ing Of the Andrea Doria.'
Differ About Weather
Both lines not only disputed
the blame for the crash, but also
differed about the weather on
the night Of the collision.
The Italian Line said dense
fog covered the water at the
time But the Swedish-American
Line said the moon was out and
