President Says Threat
From Reds Is Growing
Propaganda,

Gains Cited
BY FRANCIS p. DOUGLAS
star stan Writer


President Eisenhower said to-
day that Russia, through its
propaganda and economic pen
etration programs. as well as
its military strength, poses q
broader threat than it did q
year ago.
But, he told the Advertising
Council. that II we help our
friends In the world to get q
satisfactory economic base and
a spiritual base, they can stand
with US sturdily. He added
that, in this case, the threat
Of communism will be seen
for what 1t is and we will be
nearer to world peace.
The meeting Mr.. Eisenhower
addressed was held in the build
ing Of the District Chapter
of the American Red Cross.
The Advertising Council has
been holding a conference to
plan a campaign for conf
dence in a growing America"
The President stressed the
Importance of his reorganiza-
ton plan for the Defense De-
partment and the necessity
for maintaining international
trade. To promote the latter
the administration is urging
the extension Of the Reciprocal
Trade Act.
Faith In Prosperity
On the economy, the Presi-
dent said he is one Of those
who has faith in this country
becoming continually more
prosperous.
mo one can ever lose by
buying America" by money,
by services or In other ways,
he asserted.
He added that it cannot be
pretended that everything is
going as we like 1t but that
a number Of things have been
done and win be done to get
the country back on a better
ROAD road going higher in-
stead Of somewhat downward.
He said he could think of no
greater opportunity for service
than just to make every Amer
lean understand he is not
afraid and can go ahead If he
wants to.
Business Analogy
In explaining his program for
defense reorganization, he said
it would not make the Secretary
of Defense car. The President
said a friend who is the head
of one of our greatest corpora
tons, had given him an analogy
between defense reorganization
and business management.
He explained that most peo-
pie know that good business
is conducted by board of di-
rectors, which channels policy
and executive authority to the
president of the corporation.
The president, Mr.. Eisenhower
pointed out, has broad author
ity within the limits of the poll
icies established by the board.
He went on to say that, If
the board did not hold the
chief executive officer to the
policies it establishes but brings
in other department heads and
gives them general or specific

Vinson Cites Totul,
Warns Mcneil to
Limit Authority
BY L. EDGAR PRINA

@N--@
Chairman Vinson Of the
House Armed Services Commit
tee today advised Pentagon
Controller wilfred j. Mcneil to
stick strictly to fiscal matters
and not attempt to pass on
"every phase Of national de-
Tense"
Pointing out that there are
more than 100000 persons en-
ployed in the budget and fiscal
field in the national military
establishment. Mr.. Vinson as
serted:
Il don't want the controller
visiting and trespassing in fields
where it is going to cause con-
fusion and uncertainty"
Center Of Criticism
There has been criticism
from some service officials and
Congressman that Mr.. Mcneil,
who has been the top Pentagon
fiscal officer for more than a
decade, has at times exercised
too much influence over budg-
ct requests the military has
been allowed to make.
In revealing the total of
100000 persons working on fis-
cal matters within the military,
Mr.. Vinson. a Georgia Demo-
crat, observed that this is
pretty large"
Mr.. Mcneil denied that deci-
sions on weapons are made "by
the budgeteers," but Mr.. Vim
son made it clear that he did
not agree.
Nov the whole trouble is
that you step into an area
where. as I interpret the law.
you have no business" the
chairman said.
Sees Excess Supervision
He insisted that the con-
troller exercises supervision
over the types of weapons pur-
chased by the military.
Mr.. Mcneil said he felt he
should bring it to the atten-
ton Of either the Secretary of
Defense or a particular unit of
the department IF something
looks completely cockeyed" in
the budget request.
Representative Gavin, Re-
publican of Pennsylvania, ac-
cused Mr.. Mcneil of having
employed tactics in the past
which resulted in delaying a
lot Of projects"
The controller conceded that
his Office sometimes had caused
delays but that it often had
been accused unjustly. In this
connection he cited congress
sional testimony by Assistant
Navy Secretary Garrison Nor
ton.
Don't Do Homework"
Mr.. Mcneil said Mr.. Norton
had complained that ''he
couldn't get the last $34 mil
lion which Congress appropri-
ated for the Vanguard" satel-
lite program.
Congress never appropriated

The way was cleared today
for early redevelopment Of
Project Area CT in Southwest,
when the Redevelopment Land
Agency agreed to seek legisla-
ton to permit the District to
waive certain taxes, as required
by the Urban Renewal Admin
istration.
John r. Searles, jr., exec1-
tive director of the agency, ex-
planned that this removed a
hurdle which has been holding
up the program. The area is
bounded by Delaware avenue,
I street. South Capitol and M
streets S.W.
The District government
proposes to erect a new fire
station in that area, as well as
a new motor vehicle-testing fa-

Support Of Members

Support Of Members
While Senator Smith con-
ceded that Labor legislation Is
highly controversial" he said
the Presidents program should
have the support Of the great
majority Of labor union MEM
bers."
The President, through Sem
ator Smith, asked for legisla-
ton which would, in part:
Require unions to report to
the Federal Government on
their finances and certain
other internal matters: drop
the requirement for non-Com-
munist affidavits by union ofii-
GERS; require election Of ofii-
GERS by secret ballot at least
every four years; punish brib-
cry, embezzlement and other
offenses; tighten restrictions on
secondary boycotts and organi.
rational picketing; permit eco
nomic strikers to vote in union
certification elections; permit
certification Of construction
unions without elections, and
close the gap between Federal
and State jurisdiction in labor
management affairs.
Seeks Union Democracy
Senator Smith testified the
program would encourage union
democracy while correcting
some 'long-standing ineQuities
and dificiencies" in basic labor
law.
The panel is trying to keep
its bill relatively noncontro-
versial, and parts Of the Presi-
dents program are opposed by
leaders of organized labor.
Even more controversial is
Legislation sponsored by Sena-
tor Curtis, Republican of Me-
braska, who was also questioned
today. His bill would ban Sec
'ondary boycotts.
Partly Restricted by Law
Senator Curtis called these
practices, which are partially
restricted by existing law. IAN
offense against the public" He
said these union tactics hit espe-
cially hard at small businesses
and violate the rights of
workers.
Secondary boycotts bring
economic pressure against the
struck employer through third
