Compromise
 Reorganization Bill Approved

WASHINGTON, LR The House Armed Services Commit tee today unanimously approved a compromise bill to reorganize the Defense Department. Prsi- dent Eisenhower objected to two key features of it.
 The bill largely followed Eisen- hower's recommendations as to command over military forces made up of more than one ser vice. It contains two major pro- visions to help establish clear line of command from the Presi- dent through the Secretary of Defense to the forces in the field.
 It does this by providing an operational joint staff of up to 400 members for the Joint Chiefs of Staff and by limiting com mand powers of the individual service chiefs.
 But the committee refused to go as far as Eisenhower wished in authorizing the Secretary of Defense to reassign military functions among the services. 1t wrote in provisions saying the head of any one of the separate services-the Chief of Staff of the Army or Air Force or the Chief of Naval Operations-can object to such a transfer and in effect refer the question to Con- gress for determination.
 Congress could then block the change by simple resolution in both houses, not requiring the Presidents signature. As sub mitted by the administration, Eisenhower's proposal would have required only that such changes be submitted to Con gress. The lawmakers then could stop it only by passing a bill.
 The President could veto such a measure and a two-thirds vote in both houses would be re- quired to override the veto.
 Thus, in the language of a committee announcement, the group preserved to the Con- gress it's Constitutional respon- sibility to provide for an Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps"

Nationalism In Canada Threat To U. s. Relations

Wf1o1l11N0 O1N, uI O' o. Ambassador Livingston Merchant told Congress today nationalism is growing in Canada and any implication that Canada is "sort of a 18th state" infuriates the people.
 U. S.-Canadian relations are basically sound, the envoy to Ottawa said, but went on:
 ''The growing nationalism in Canada can result in difficulties, particularly if knowingly or un- knowingly the United States or it's representatives act in ways which appear to Canadians to infringe on their sovereignty or appear to overlook economic in terests which Canadians regard as vital"
 Merchant made particular appeal, in testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Commit tee, for extension of the Trade Agreements Act under which the government negotiates recip- rocal tariff reductions.
 The United States and Canada, he said, are each others best customers, and failure of the ex- tension bill to pass Congress would be disaster for the two countries relations.
 q do not believe that we can expect to hold our position there unless the United States govern ment pursues liberal trading pol icies," Merchant said in a state ment notable for frank comment on U. S.-Canadian problems.
 Prime Minister John Diefen- baker, who will play host to President Eisenhower i. in Ottawa in July, was described by Mer- chant as a persistent advocate of vigorous remedies and strong approaches to the United States in finding solutions for Canada's economic problems.
 Merchant told the Senators that Canada buys far more goods from this country than it sells here. He said Canadians are worried over mounting U. s. ownership in Canada, that they fear protectionist trade measures here, that they are upset by U. S.. surplus wheat disposal abroad, and that they want no limits on U. s. imports of Canadian oil.

Urues All Over Is Years
Of Age To Check In For
A Free Chest x-Ray

tor Of health for East Cleve-
land, pointed to the goal which
has been set for the community
and said that while he still had
hopes that the 1900 would be
reached, he was more concerned
with those who were not taking
advantage of the chance which
is being offered to them. DR..
Winkler urged that older people
in particular visit the chest
X-ray units. He said that tu-
berculosis is a disease that
strikes at many people but that
particularly those in the older
age groups are susceptible.
In discussing the use Of the
X-ray units, Miss Barthold
stated that by visiting the big,
white bus early in the day,
it was possible to avoid any
rush. She said that experience
showed that a visit to the
X-ray units could take as little
as two minutes and added that
it could give hours and months
of mental relief to those who
made certain that they had not
become victims Of tuberculosis.
Check the schedule for the
balance Of the time the units
will be located in East Cleve-

in East Cleveland is rapidly
drawing to close, and while
many residents of this area
have taken advantage of this
opportunity to participate in
the chest X-ray program, there
are still many who can and
should be X-rayed.

man Of the East Cleveland
Chest X-ray program, has
urged that everyone who is Is
years Of age and over should
visit the Christmas Seal X-ray
unit during its stay in the East
Cleveland area. According to
Miss Barthold, "The results we
have had thus far in the cam
paign have been quite crafty
ing, however, there is much
room for improvement and it
behooves all Of us to do all we
can to protect our own health
As we'll as the health of our
neighbors." Miss Barthold
pointed out the presence of the
chest X-ray units in East Cleve-
land provided an opportunity to
the people of the area to get
their chest X-ray taken with a
minimum of effort.
