Penfdgon Told
To Gear Plans
To Industry
~ the Associated Press

The Pentagon has been ad-
vised to gear industry more
closely into its mobilization
plans 10 industry will be better
prepared to switch quickly to
wartime production IL neces-
sary.
"A buildup Of weapons pro-
duction after . nuclear attack
is not sound" said the National
Security Association in a re-
port sent to Assistant Secre-
AIRY Of Defense j. Perkins
MCGUIRE.
The report was prepared at
he Defense Departments re-
luest by q committee repre-
ienting 70 companies engaged
in defense production. The
yroup was headed by Z. B.
English Of the Caterpillar
Tractor Co. Of Peoria, III.
More Freedom Urged
The industrialists said I'VE
lust be able to literally push
uttons and effect almost in
tantaneous momentum toward
ne immediate mobilization de-
lands"
They stressed that produc-
on ALLEGATION planning must
e based on both military and
villain needs for small, Pc
oheral wars"
Some of the things they rec
amended we're:
|. More freedom from Gov.
nment supervision to carry
1t their mobilization missions
2. Coordination Of Govern
snt information to determine
ltical needs and mobilization
capabilities.
3. Government guidance on
he probable availability OF
lanpower, machine tools and
Material at mobilization time.
4. AS little secrecy as posi-
lie so industry can be told its
ole and thereby plan intelli-
entity.
r. N. Mcfarland, executive
irector Of the association.
'rote Mr.. Mcguire that be-
ause the report was being
made public it could not re-
lew the latest plans for adj
1inistering the country In the
vent of a devastating nuclear
tack"
Delay Seen as Fatal
However. he wrote, cit seems
Imperative that defense sup
lliers be told who they should
ook to for immediate instruc-
ions under such conditions.
The report said that while
n the past delay in getting the
'ull United States industrial
potential to support the mill
tary effort was q handicap,
lnder present conditions 'it
could be fatal" 1t added:
I'VE believe it is no longer
Jossible to develop the neces-
airy close alignment between
the military and industry in
each separate emergency on. q
lash basis.
In either cold or hot war
1 strong military-industry team
imperative.
The best way to develop
and maintain a vigorous and
able military-induStry relation
ship is to have q continuing
program Of Joint effort dedi-
Gated to this purpose.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Jan. 21.-It is
almost a certainty. The Baptist
Convention U. S. A., Inc, will have
a new president in 1857.
That much seems certain after
a pre-convention sampling of opin-
ion of state presidents and repre-
sentatives who form the nucleus
of the organization. The caucus
shows that the overwhelming ma
jority of these leaders are unal-
terably pledged to supporting a
constitutional amendment, passed
in 1852, limiting the term of the
national presidency to four years.
(The constitution provides that the
president stand for reelection at
the end of each year, but he cam
not succeed himself more than
three successive times.)
The convention opens in Hot
Springs, Ark, Wednesday Of this
week.
The center of the controversy is

ident of the convention, whose bid

And Increase Negroes Taxes

Capetown, South Africa, Jan. 18
Eric H. Louw, Minister for Ex-
ternal Affairs, warned today that
South Africa could close her ports
to Indian ships if India continued
attacking her racial policy.
He also suggested that South
Africa's strategic minerals and
command of the Cape of Good
Hope sea route could be used to
bargain for support of the Western
nations.
The reference to minerals ap-
peared aimed at the United States,
which is South Africa's principal
customer for uranium, manganese
and chrome. Mr.. Louw mentioned
all three.
Furthermore, he called upon his
countrymen to reduce their depend
ence on foreign capital, thereby
making the Union (of South
Africa less vulnerable to pressure
that may be exterted upon a Union
Government from abroad"
