Secretary McElroy To Reword Military Reorganization Bill

WASHINGTON, R - Secre- tary of Defense McElroy agreed today to try to reword President Eisenhower's defense reorgani- zation proposal to rule out any possibility it would merge the armed services into one force.
 McElroy was a witness before the House Armed Services Com mittee in a session that sounded much like a negotiating confer ence on possible compromises with critics of the White House plan.
 The secretary, however, care fully emphasized he was only talking about attempts to work out suitable language and not agreeing to any changes in ad- vance.
 McElroy was asked today whether, if all the forces in the field were so organized, it would be possible for the separate mil itary departments to lose their identity.
 ''I don't see how they could lose their separate identities if the legislation provides that they must continue to exist" McElroy replied.

ELM To Issue Grazing Leases
 To Alaskan Reindeer Herd Owners

Bureau of Indian Affairs in man. aging the herds. the reindeer appear to be on the increase, and are now estimated to to number approximately 30,000 head.
 The action is expected to foster better management of domeSti- cated reindeer, the secretary said He added that by the issuance of regular grazing leases the natives will be granted more secure ten ure on specified areas of suffi- cient size to carry on an economic operation.
 The Bureau of Land Manage ment expects several thousand head of reindeer may be covered in the first dozen grazing leases to be issued through it's Fairbanks office. With the reindeer indus try reported to be expanding, more may be issued later.
 The primary interest in rein deer grazing leases centers on and around the Seward Penin- sula, north and east of Nome, and on the islands of St. Lawrence and Nunivak.
 Before issuing reindeer graz ing permits, ELM will consult with the Bureau of Indian Ali fairs and the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife to assure leased areas do not conflict with caribou migration routes.
 Under the reindeer act of 1887, herds in Alaska were ac- quired by the government for exclusive use by the native popu- lation. Government management of the herds has been made. In some places, however, particu- larly on St. Matthew, Umnak and Atka Islands, the reindeer have increased until critical over-pop- ulation exist.

 Reindeer were first imported in to Alaska from Lapland late in the nineteenth century. The herds thrived and the govern ment purchased approximately 100000 head under the 1887 act. After this time, however, the herds declined rapidly and be- came almost extinct through ab- sorption into migrating caribou herds and depredations by wolves.

 Chairman Howard Smith D-Va) said later he would put the bill on the committees agenda for
