efficiency. the stepped-up use
of EDP electrical data process
sing) equipment in Government
now taking place may reverse
the decentralization of Federal
activities away from Washing
ton.
At present, about 10 per cent
of the Governments 2.3 million
employes are in the Washing
ton area. During the last 10 to
is years there has been an in
creased trend toward decentral-
izing Federal activities outside
Of Washington.
But Mr.. Jones feels that the
use Of electronic and automatic
equipment In q single concen-
trated central location may
swing the pendulum back To
Washington as far as Govern
ment employment and>activities
are concerned.
In q speech last night before
the New York metropolitan
chapter Of the American Soci-
ETY. for Public Administration,
Mr.. Jones declared:
~Automation poses a chal-
lenge to some of our most sue
cesSful administrative tech
niques Of the past and present
decentralization, for ex-
ample. Attenuation sets up q
counter-pull toward decen-
tralization Of mass operations
so as to realize the economics
Of large-scale processing in q
single location.
I'VE have been saying for
years, and rightly so, that Gov
ernment was brought closer to
the people it serves through
decentralization. We have been
emphasizing the positive aid to
program accomplishment which
is furnished by good commu-
nifty relations. What will hap
pen to these gains II the pull
Is now away from the COM
munity and back to some CEN
tral point = Washington or
whatever the case may be?"
Nevertheless, Mr.. Jones en-
phasized his strong feeling that
the Government must convert
as rapidly as possible to auto
nation. He declared that prob
lens in connection with the
conversion to automation can
be solved by careful planning.
But despite the difficulties
real or imaginary-admini
ton needs the value of auto.
mation now as ever before. We
simply cannot keep public ad-
ministration prompt, respon-
sive and efficient in a techno-
logical age without it. This is
the reason the csc has been
sponsoring ADP appreciation
programs for Federal agency
executives Mr.. Jones declared.
THE ever-present need for
manpower planning becomes
infinitely more acute as a re-
suit Of the introduction Of such

automation machinery" the
csc chief added. I'VE intend
to adapt our hiring practices.
and our selection techniques,
at an early date to the even
tual introduction Of such ma
chinery This may mean differ
ent standards, new sources of
recruitment, and adjustment of
hudgetary considerations.
"It certainly means the in
PRODUCTION of intensive refrain
ing programs and sometimes
fairly massive programs of re-
assignment or out-placement
of employees" Mr.. Jones noted
The csc chief also again
proposed q Federal staf coll
lege to train Government ca
reer executives.
Mr.. Jones also declared that
1t is wrong to try and divorce
Government career executives
from policy and political deci-
sions in Government. The Fed
eral careerist can greatly aid
the process Of Government by
faithful adherence and aid to
their political superiors in de-
veloping and carrying out poll
cies, Mr.. Jones said.

Weak Alliance

TOURS. FRANCE, Sept. Q
(AP)-French Premier Michel
Debre said last night the con-
cept Of NATO as a military
alliance for the defense Of
Western Europe is too narrow
to safeguard the free world.
Mr.. Debre. in an address at
q dinner given by the Inter-

that the French government
favors a broader role for the

Mr.. Debre's insistence that
NATo should shift emphasis
away from the strictly military
and consider also more than
Just the territory and problems
Of the nations that make up
NATo fitted in with recent
criticism Of NATO by President
Charles de Gaulle.
Gen. de Gaulle is known to
favor a global approach to cold
war problems. At the same
time he has been irritated by
NATO's military concept of q
fighting force under unified
command. Gen. de Gaulle Ia
known to favor a looser form
of military cooperation among
