Mcnamara at a news briefing
today.
Service secretaries and mill
tary chiefs were directed to re-
port between the end Of June
and next March on the topics.
Mr.. Mcnamara said the studies
were all directed at carrying
out a general instruction he re-
ceived from President Kennedy
at the outset of the present
administration.
This instruction, Mr.. Nc
Namara said, was to provide a
military system in support Of
our foreign policy, and to do so
at the lowest possible cost.
Gold Reserve First
Although he declined to set
priorities of importance on the
various projects in the list, Mr.
Mcnamara made it clear that
he regards the gold-reserve
problem as a major one. He
characterized it as very seri-
ous," even with cutbacks which
have reduced The net unfavor-
able balance from $2.75 billion
in fiscal 1861 to 50 billion now.
THAT isn't low enough" Mr..
Mcnamara said. I'VE must take

Mr.. Mcnamara emphasized
that withdrawal of combat

Gen. Eisenhower's farm home
"Mr. Eisenhower expressed
a very angry reaction to some
of the original Kennedy farm
programs because they con-
tained jail sentence penalties
for farmers who refused to CO.
operate" she wrote, adding:
After going into some detail
about how he had never asked
for and never taken a cent of
Government money on his
farm, he declared that if any
Of these proposed regimented
programs became law he would
be darned if he wouldn't rather
go to jail than to submit"
A Good Idea
At this point, Mrs. May
wrote, she told Gen. Eisen-
hover quite earnestly" that
she thought it was "a splendid
idea"
"If you would be willing to
go to Jail, it would make a
wonderful example to prove our
point about control farm pro-
grams" she said she told Gen
Eisenhower.
For a minute" she added
"he looked taken aback, and
then burst into a roar of laugh
ter, in which we all Joined. and
he assured me that he agreed ii
might be the best way TO strike
a blow for our cause, and he
would be perfectly willing to
submit himself for the expert
ment."
John c. Bagwell, general
counsel for the Agriculture De-
partment. said in discussion OF
Mrs. Mays letter that there are
no criminal penalties for farm
ers who fail to comply with
regulations in present farm law
or in the new Kennedy farm
bill which recently passed the
Senate.
Only civil penalties are pro-
vided for those farmers who do
not comply with the regula-
tionS.
Provisions Of Bill
There was a provision in the
original Kennedy farm bill for
criminal penalties under the
dairy section. Under this, a
dairy farmer failing to keep
required records would have
faced criminal penalties lncluQ-
ing q Jail term.
Secretary of Agriculture
Freeman, however. agreed to
withdraw that section from the
bill when objections were raised
against it. Then the entire
dairy section was dropped be-
fore the Senate passed the bill

Alcoholism Ranks In Top Diseases

Alcoholism ranks among the four major diseases, along with cancer, mental illness and heart disease.
 Governor William A. Egan made this statement this week in citing the National Council on Alcoholism for it's noteworthy achievement in alerting the public to the danger of alcoholism.
 Governor Egan also proclaimed the week of November 26-Decem- Der 1 as Alcoholism Information Week for Alaska.
 In doing so, he pointed out more than 5,0O0,000 Americans are afflict- ed with the disease, alcoholism.
 "The cost of alcoholism in human suffering, in disintegration of fami- ly life. in economic attrition to the individual and the community is incalculable.' he said.
