For number of reasons, the
commission said it rejected pro-
posals that the White House

the need has become critical, as
the executive Office has expanded
in size to keep pace with the
growth of Government.
Tracing White House growth,
the report noted that the west
wing was successfully altered
and enlarged after 1902. When
the executive Offices moved into
the State-War- Navy Building in
1947, it said, the problem ZAP
.peared in the minds of those
concerned to be solved. :"
The commission said the
major problem, however, is that
the "makeshift improvements
dictated by the exigencies of
each occasion have never
been sufficient for more than a
brief interval" Its aim, the COM
mission said, was to provide a
plan that would suffice for at
least the next so years.
AS a basis for It's study, the
commission distinguished be-
tween the white House office"
activities related closely to the
President and other allied-but
not so closely related-agencies
OF the executive Office" like the
Budget Bureau. 1t said, for ex-
ample, that:
THE entire executive office of
the President need not be in one
structure. In fact, it is desir-
able from the point of view of
security and efficient !. opera
ton that the White House Office
be in one structure separated in
some degree from the remainder
Of the executive Office. 1t is
exceedingly important, however,

Cost of Mistake" Cited
He added, What a disastrous
mistake it would be for us to
heed such short-sighted, faint
hearted counsel of expediency in
this momentous hour of chal-
lengel Now. of all times, it is
doubly imperative that we stand
firm with our guard up. These
critics would have us believe
that all is lost because some
thing went wrong in Taipei."

financial side of the present

ION studies made in 1855 by the
Cleveland consulting firm of
Robert Heller & Associates, on
the same subject. 1t rejected,
however, the main recommended
ton of the Heller firm: That
virtually all the needed "execu-
tive Office" space be provided in
a massive new building replacing
the old State War Navy Build
ling
A new building this large,
equivalent in size to the existing
structure, would overshadow the
White House. detracting from it's
appearance and dignity" the re-
port said.
Larger Building Rejected
The commission also rejected
fatty a proposal that the present
west wing building be replaced
with a larger building. This es-
sentially was the proposal made
by President Harry S. Truman
in 1916. Actually, this project
was Endorsed by Congress, but
was withdrawn in the wake of
strong public and Capitol Hill
Opposition.
Another of the alternates pro-
posed a medium sized new build
ing on the present site of the
First Division Monument, just
south of the State War Navy
Building. The commission said
this would impair perspective"
of the White House grounds, re-
quire closing IAN important traf-
fic artery"-State place NV
and be too far removed from
the new GSA Building north of
Pennsylvania avenue.
The First Division tract plan,
however, was one of two the
commission said should be stud
led in more detail if "insuperable
objections" prevent adoption of
the recommended plan.
The other plan in this category
would involve renovation of the
State War Navy, Building. and
use Of it's space in conjunction
with the proposed new GSA
building.
Need Becomes Critical
The commission emphasized
that Presidents since 1900 have
been plagued by the inadequacies
of White House Office space.
From the start it said, the White
House has been a Confusing
mixture" of residence and Office
which impinged upon the privacy
OF the Executive Mansion. 1t is

WEST POINT. N. Y, June
Pl-Secretary of the Army
Brucker said today American

He added it is not the kind
of economy that is the servant
of the broad interests of the
United States. but the meat-ax
variety of which immeasurably
increases the Nations peril.
His comment aimed at the
congressional move to cut The
defense budget was contained in
a speech prepared for an annual
luncheon of the Association of
Graduates of the United States
Military Academy.
Mr.. Brucker said prudent
economy is laudable as long as
we recognize that true economy
consists in wise spending" But,
he declared:

efforts to achieve true economy

He spoke of past lessons of
false economy" including a re-

The general situation illus
trated in this hand occurs fairly
frequently and therefore it might
be helpful to follow the reason
ing of a player like Mr.. Masters.
One line of play was to go
over to the dummy with a heart
to the king and return the jack
of spades for a finesse. If Mr..
Abel held the king of spades,
II tricks could be taken. In other
words. the defenders would win
only a club and the ace of dia-
monds. The losing heart in the
South hand could be discarded
on dummy's diamonds.
But following this same line,
suppose Mr.. Meek had the king
of spades. He would win with
that card, cash a club and lead
a second round of hearts, knock
ing out dummy's last stopper. In
this case the defenders would
have a heart winner set up while
they still had the ace of dia-
monds and Mr.. Masters would be
down one.
He was not at all interested in
winning only nine tricks on the
hand. He was only slightly more
interested in taking II tricks. His
prime interest was in making
sure he took 10.
With that objective in mind,
he laid down the ace of spades
at trick two. Mr.. Meek won the
second spade lead, cashed a club,
then led a heart. But now Mr..
Masters had time to pick up the
remaining trump, knock out the
ace of diamonds and enter the
