Wage increases would have

straight evening, Negroes staged
another demonstration In a

One Of the marchers, Alton
Jones, 20, a laborer, was
knocked to the ground by a
solid blow to the jaw from a
white man who was standing
in a cluster of other white men
on the sidewalk opposite Hotel

Mr.. Jones was near the end

Morale Problem at Defense

hearted man, This reporter has
always found Mr.. Mcnamara
to be friendly and smiling, and
some top officers who see him
regularly say he is generous
and kind.
Nevertheless, the fact is that
most military people believe Mr.
Mcnamara does not under
stand people, that he is not
interested in people.
This, accurate or not, is their
image Of him.
Advisers Concerned
The situation is beginning to
trouble some of Mr.. McNa-
mara's top civilian advisers. II
is true, Of course, that Mr.,
Mcnamara was hired for his
management skill, not his per-
sonality. But some Defense
officials believe the image is
important enough that the ma
tional defense could suffer from
q poor one.
They say q Defense Secre-
tary with no heart Is being
equated with q Defense Depart
ment with no heart. Service
people question whether they
want to work, or can work ef-
fectively for q heartless organ
ization.
Some valuable soldiers will
quit because Of this image
Some wives will say they are
fed up and will nag until an
otherwise satisfied husband will
be fed UP, too. Old timers will
discourage young men from
making a career Of the serv-
ice.
No one can count the ncm-
der Of skilled soldiers who are
quitting or going sour on their
Jobs because Mr.. McNamara
does not have a more lovable
image. But the experts OH mo-
rale say they do exist.
List OF Problems
These are some of the COM
plants you hear:
Visits. Mr.. Mcnamara sell
dom visits the troops where
they work and live. He makes
occasional quick trips to var
ious command headquarters,
but these are for briefings
from the top military men.
He cannot learn much about
the mess halls or the state Of
training during visits, but he
could show the soldiers that
he Is interested In them.
Statements. It Is rare that
Secretary Mcnamara sends q
well done" to his troops,
either through q speech or spe-
cial message or by pinnlng a
medal on some representative
hero back from a hazardous
post.
Service families noted, for
Instance. that Queen Elizabeth
and even Halle Selassie sent
prompt condolance messages
after the sinking of the sub
marine Thresher; Mr.. McNa-
mara made a sympathetic
statement four days later.
These gestures take little
time-in fact, some aide nor
Evening star., 1963-05-17

Imally arranges them-but they
show military families that
someone up high appreciates
special sacrifices.
Pay. Mr.. Mcnamara has re.
quested q 81 billion dollar pay
increase for the military, but
In the process he has managed
to dissipate the morale effect
Of the coming raise. He can
not get as large a raise as
the Civil Service Commission
gets for its people, and he has
ignored the recommendations
of military advi5e-s whom he
had asked to review the pay
scales.
Housing. Mr.. Mcnamara is
trying to improve military
housing. but again the image
is spoiled by reports that the
Secretary IL siding with the
servicemen largely because he
resents the opposite pressure
from the real estate industry.
Military families will be
pleased to read about Mr.. Nc
Namara's strong personal plea
before the House Armed Serv-
ices Committee for more and
better military housing. But
they probably will wonder why
the number Of units requested
was reduced from 14,475 last
year to 12,l00 this year.
Promotions. Service people
have been waiting two -and-a "a
half-years for congressional ap-
proval Of q promotion reform
plan adopted by the admini-
stration. Military men believe
II Secretary Mcnamara had
pushed 1t hard he could have
got the plan through Congress.
Transfers. Mr.. Mcnamara
has reorganized the Defense
Department and some major
reorganizations have resulted
in crash transfers of people.
Most military transfers are
in the summertime, between
school terms. When q shift
comes at some other time,
service wives react Just as in
dignantly as would civilian
wives, and they put the blame
on the boss.
Question Of Morale
Some Of these complaints
are important, some minor.
There would be less dissatis-
faction, however. If the service
families thought the Secretary
of Defense was doing his best
for his people and was sin
cerely worried about the per-
sonal problems.
/ Mr.. McNamara's spokesmen
say he is doing his best and
that he is sincerely concerned.
But 1t is not in his char
acter, one spokesman said, to
make public gestures that are
unnatural to him Just to Gre
ate q special image.
He believes that his job,
basically, is to stay at his desk
IL hours a day and direct the
administration of the vast de-
tense establishment.
The President thinks he is
handling this job well, and this
satisfies Mr.. Mcnamara.

friends. They get up at the crack of dawn, leave

time with us. Then they fly off for the day and
leave me blessedly alone until dusk, when
they fall into the house in state of utter ex-
haustion, without the strength or the remotest
desire to help" with dinner
The problem is purely and simply, to get
house guests out of the way long enough to
do your own chores in peace. It just calls for
little imaginative planning.
An obvious solution is to recommend the
morning boat to Mt. Vernon. The boat leaves at

to give themselves plenty of leeway.
If you want to get them off even earlier,
try the special congressional guided tour of
the White House. They're entitled to il. Of
course, you may have to spend few hours
trying to call your Senator or Representative.
But it's well worth the effort, because your
guests will have to appear at the East Gate at
8:45 am, and if you're lucky enough to live in
Virginia or Maryland everyone will have to
breakfast at $50 in order to beat the morning
rush hour traffic. A week on the phone or half
an hour of your precious sleep lost is small
enough price to pay for a blissful morning
doing the breakfast dishes by yourself and
reading the newspaper over few cups of
coffee.
A far more ambitious project, but good for
at least eight hours of quiet, is to convince your
guests to tackle the C&O towpath. After all, the
canal hike is now definitely "in," and how else
will your guests get the feeling of official gov
ernment? Tell them charming little inside

Justice Douglas being turned away from res
taurant because of his disreputable-looking
rain-SOaked clothes, or share the joke about
welsher Pierre Salinger and the train of cigar
bearers who were to have accompanied him
on his hike. You'd be wise to play up Attorney
General Kennedy's 37-mile stamina, and the
Presidents extensive fitness plans. After all,
the longer your guests stay out, the more you'll
get done at home.
To take care of that awkward period be-
tween breakfast and actual leavetaking turn

When he finally showed up,
the former Pitt star took the
