Mr.. Butler described the 1852

most classic. the most hypo-
critical the most comically
tragic example OF all the empty
campaign pledges"
He charged that Influence

been defended and rewarded.

Recalling Mr.. Eisenhower's
1852 promises TO maintain high
standards in the Government,
Mr.. Butler said:

these words seem when APP

crusade five and one-half
years later"
Quotes President
He quoted Mr.. Eisenhower
as having said that If any
member Of his staff was guilty
Of an indiscretion that m
dividual would be gone"
1T would seem to me-" Mr..
Butler added. that the Sher-
man Adams mess would be the
kind Of situation to which this
lofty statement would apply -
Also from the Democratic
side. Senator Kennedy Of
Massachusetts, said Mr.. Adams
usefulness as a presidential
assistant has been seriously
affected "if not destroyed" and
Senator Long Of Louisiana
said:
Il can't understand why Mr..
Adams stays in after all these
speeches he made about how
terrible it was for other folks
to get a deep freeze or a suit
of clothes. or for some girl to
get a fur coat"
Eat His Speeches"
Senator Long suggested Mr..
Adams should hunt up his old
campaign speeches about home

speeches along that line"
He would have a full-course
meal" Senator Kennedy said
The two Senators appeared to-

Senator Neuberger, Demo-
crat Of Oregon, urged an in
CURRY to determine where the

Chiefs Briefed on Lime"
The Secretary disclosed that
he had seen Mr.. Eisenhower last
week on reorganization and
then had called in the Joint
Chiefs of Staff and other Off
Gals to tell them what the line
is"
He said I'VE discussed the
strength of the Presidents feel
ing on this matter"
The Secretary added that he
thought it would be very diff
cult for a chief or for me not to
understand that the President
wants these changes"
In reply to a question, Mr..
McElroy denied that he had
lput pressure on any Defense
Department witness to change
his testimony on reorganization
after it had been placed on the
record on Capitol Hill.
He recalled. however, that
I'VE do have a group" at the
Pentagon which provides fac
tual answers for any people who
might be called to testify"
Deny Clearance Is Mandatory
The Secretary called it a
strictly International group"
and denied that Pentagon wit

Burke Backs House Plan
Just two months ago Mr.
McElroy told the House Armed
Services Committee II think il
it beneath the dignity Of my
office to consider retaliation"
against any officer who might
oppose the Eisenhower plan.
81 would not consider it al
ALL" he said.
There should be full and
frank discussion with the COM
mittee by members of the de-
partment. civilian or in uni
I form. There should not be any
question Of retaliation for such
testimony"
In his testimony before the
Senate committee, Admiral
Burke opposed demands by the
President that the Secretary
of Defense's power to merge,
transfer and abolish roles and
missions of the armed forces
be increased. He backed the
House bills provision which
maintains for Congress a final
say in any alteration OF CON-
Blatant functions of the services.
The admiral also opposed
the Presidents call for ar
amendment which would down.
grade the status of the Sec
retaries of the Army, Navy and
Air Force.
Admiral Burke. who is at
tending the defense leaders
meeting here. could not be

The 56-year-old admiralS
career once before was in jeop-

Of the inteded action against
"3l-Knot" Burke, a hero of the
war against the japanese, got
his name restored and he was
made rear admiral.
In Washington, meanwhile,
Representative Wilson, Repub-
lican Of California, a member
of the Armed Services Com
mittee, commented he hopes
Admiral Burke lis allowed to
freely speak his piece" Mr..
Wilson added in a statement:
Attempts to gag military
witnesses such as Admiral
Burke and others who see the
dangers of a monolithic mill
tary structure are only samples
of what we can expect every
day under the proposed amend
ments to the HouSe-paSsed
military reorganization bill.
Healthy competition between
services would be Stifled by
these changes and the Pen
tagon would become a yes
mans land"
Asks Removal Of Provision
The House bill says that the
Secretary of Defense shall eX-
ercise his authority over the
three military departments
through" the secretaries of
those departments. Mr.. Eisen-
hover wants this provision
stricken from the legislation.
The President, in his attacks
on the House measure, has as
serted that it Invites legalized
insubordination" and causes
bottlenecks to the exercise of
the Defense Secretary's au-
thority. He has written many
pesonal letters to leading citi-
zens throughout the Nation
asking for their active support
of the reorganization plan he
holds is vital.
When he spoke to the con-
ference of defense leaders Fri
day here. Mr.. Eisenhower again
made a pitch for his reorgani-
cation plan.
Sees Merit in Meeting
Mr.. McElroy told his news
conference that the meeting at
the Marine base without ques-
ton contributed to teamwork"
among defense officials.
He said that proper organi-
zation, of course, was necessary
but that you don't get team
work except by the desire Of
people to work together"
The four-day conference ends
with a luncheon given by the
Secretary tomorrow. He hao
originally planned to address
the group at this luncheon but
decided TO do that today so that
those officials who desired to
get back to their families could
leave tonight.
Earlier today the confereeS
heard talks by each of the
members Of the Joint Chiefs oil
Staff and by several assistant
secretaries of defense.

finding the proper analysis fer

far would this go in a 10-acre
