Cards Travel
To Sundusky

Still smarting from their
last minute setback at the
hands of old rival Collinwood,
the Cardinals of Shaw wind-up
t h cir pre-league exhibition
schedule when they travel to
Sandusky tomorrow night.
The Cards are due to open
defense of their Lake Erie
League crown at Shaw Stadium
on October 3rd when the highly
rated Parma Redmen invade.
Last Friday before some
1900 fans, it was a matter of
"going for broke" for Shaw and
that they did as the Railroaders
posted a tainted" 8-6 victory
in the 31st meeting of the two
schools.
With the score knotted Go,
less than a minute to go, Shaw
had recovered a Collinwod fun
BILE inside their own four yard
line. On the first play, Shaw
quarterback Bill Morris faded
back seeking a receiver for his
desperation pass. Before he got
it off, he was hit by a charging
Railroader.
The officials called Morris for
Intentionally grounding the ball
and as a result, awarded Col
linwood a safety and two points
giving them an SO victory.
Coach Don Drebus protested
the decision of the officials but
it stuck. Though upset by the
call, Drebus defended his quar-
terback's action stating that
the pass play was called since
he wasn't satisfied with a tie
game, I'll go for a victory
everytime".

States Spend
AT Rapid Clip

NEW YORK, April 7 tR.-
Some states probably will raise
taxes during the coming year
and some may have to do with
out spending programs they
planned. the Tax Foundation
Inc. says.
The States are spending four
times as much as in 1916, &C
cording to a 48-page study pre-
pared by the Foundation and
released yesterday. 1t asserts
that state governments have
spent their way out of a rela-
lively healthy economic condi-
ton at the end of World War
II into a precarious financial
condition.
The Tax Foundation is a
non-profit organization en-
gagged in research and public
education on all aspects of gov
eminent spending and taxa
ton.
The Foundation says state
taxes have been driven upward
by increased spending for
population growth. the rising
number Of automobiles, higher
prices. a backlog of needed
capital improvements delayed
first by the depression and then
by war, and an expanding
number Of Federal aid programs
requiring matching state funds.
The study indicated ex-
penditures of State and local
governments are likely to rise
more rapidly than the total
national output. The school
age population (5 to 19 is ex-
Ipected to increase 81 per cent

Senators See
Defense Plan
Compromise
By JACK BELL
Associated Press stan Writer

Two Senators said yesterday
President Eisenhower is going
to have to compromise on some
major points If he hopes to get
congressional approval Of his
defense reorganization plan.
Senator Mansfield of Mon
tana. acting Democratic
leader. said that while Con-
gress may be willing to hand
some increased authority to
Secretary of Defense McElroy.
he and his colleagues won't go
along in making the cabinet
officer a car.
Senator Francis Case of
South Dakota. a Republican
member of the Armed Services
Committee. expressed belief in
a separate interview that the
legislators will be unwilling to
write a blank check for Mr..
McElroy to spend military
funds as he sees At.
Mr.. Eisenhower has proposed
a far-reaching Pentagon re-
vamping which would give the
Defense Secretary full author
ity over military spending:
downgrade the service depart
ments into administrative
agencies. and give additional
command responsibilities to
the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Sees Rivalry Increase
Senator Mansfield. one of
the authors Of a compromise
bill which would cut deeply
into the present staff of the
Secretary of Defense, voiced
the opinion that Mr.. Eisen-
hower's plan will decrease CO.
operation. increase rivalries
and deter competition at the
Pentagon."
He said Congress faces the
issue Of whether it is going
to surrender its constitutional
power over the purse, as well
as over designation of the roles
and missions of the military
services.
1T appears to me-" Senator
Mansfield said, that under the
reorganization proposal and
the powers which will be given
to the Secretary. he could force
into being a single service. that
he could create a supreme
command. and that he could
bring into being a chief of
staff based on the German
pattern.
Il would not be averse to
giving a man like Mr.. McElroy
who, on the basis of his record
to date. has been outstanding.
increased power and additional
authority. But every Secretary
Of Defense will not be a Noel
roy. and therefore 1 think it
would establish a bad prece-
dent"
100 Par, Not Far Enough
Senator Mansfield said that
while he could commend Mr..
Eisenhower for laying, his
cards on the table, Il think he
goes entirely too far in advo-
eating what he does and not by
any means far enough in bring
ing about a reorganization
within the Pentagon ITSELF"
Senator Case said he is GER
tain Congress will not agree to
give Mr.. McElroy the power to
spend money as he chooses or
even broad authority to trans
fer funds from one service to
another.
y don't think Congress is
going to turn over to the Sec
retarv anv limn-SiiYf1 anrro1ri
ation." Senator Case said. 1T
might approve some limited
authority for him to transfer a
fixed percentage of the money
it appropriates, but it is not
going to write any blank check"
Senator Case said he thinks
Mr.. Eisenhower's proposals for
shortening the line Of command
are well worth looking into.
