II personally, consider you to
be q great Secretary Of De-
fense," Senator Douglas, Dem
ocrat Of Illinois, and chairman
of the Senate subcommittee on
Defense Procurement, said to
Secretary Of Defense Robert s,
Mcnamara.
yours is an extraordinary
achievement" Senator JavitS,
Republican Of New York, COM
mittee member, said to Mr.. Nc
Namara.
You're an unusual Secretary
Of Defense" Senator Proxmire,
Democrat of Wisconsin, another
committee member, stated.
Why this praise from econ
omy-conscious Senators in view
Of the fact that Mr.. McNamara
has submitted the biggest
peacetime defense budget ever?
Because Mr.. Mcnamara openly
agrees with the Senators that
there Is enormous waste, dup
lication and extravaganza in
the Defense budget; because he
has initiated major new pro-
grams to cut the excuses; be.
cause programs he has launched
are already producing annua
savings Of $l.o billion and Mr.
Mcnamara expects to step VI
the rate Of annual saving Il
over $3.4 billion by fiscal 1885
because he has had the courage
to put through reorganization
which, in the words Of an earlier
Defense Secretary, are mo morI
painful than backing into
buzz saw"
Mr.. Mcnamara isn't promis'
ing that the defense bulge
won't rise to all-time peaks =
on the contrary. He is, though
trying to curb the costs Of de-
tense by eliminating bad prac'
tees and malpractices - In thu
face Of stern opposition ant
dedication to the traditiona
ways Of doing things in the De
tense Department. Thus, tn
compliments of the budget

The Bomarc was a $6.4 bill
lion project for anti-bomber
defense which Canada and
Congress distrusted. Fabulous
sums were ordered spent in
Canada by an excited Penta-
gon and an emotional Con-
gress when the CHA reported
that the Soviets were plan
ming to build thousands Of
Bison long-range bombers.
The Bison and its engines
turned out to be "clunkers. +"
Only a few prototypes were
built.
The United States spends
$2.1 billion annually on those
early warning lines. Ex- Presi-
dent Eisenhower referred to
the Soviet long-range bomber
threat as fiction"
Canada built two sites and
accepted only Sc Bomarcs with
out the nuclear warheads.
Representatives Minshall, OF
Ohio, called the weapons O
three -billion-dollar blunder'
and Congress halted further
funds.
Representative Laird, Repub-
lican Of Wisconsin, a fiscal ex-
pert, explains "the members
who halted this project did a

Also Of fundamental import
ance has been Mr.. McNamara's
drive to change the method of
a warding defense contracts
from negotiation and cost
plus fixed fee to formal or
competitive bidding wherever
feasible.
In 1862, almost 81 per cent
Of all military purchases were
still by negotiation. The esti-
mate is that Is cents can be
saved on each dollar shifted
from non-competitive to COM
petitive buying and that shifts
under way will be saving nearly
$500 million a year by fiscal
1865. The changes are starting.
In 1861, only Is per cent Of
aircraft spare parts we're
bought comparatively; in 1862,
the percentage was doubled to
80 per cent and the trend is
upward.
The cost cutting probe is
touching the most delicate areas
duplicate weapon systems, re-
search and development. AS q
dramatic illustration Of what
this can mean, basic to
the now famous controversy
over the Tx experimental tao
tical fighter plane is not just the
question Of awarding Of defense
contracts. Basic is the fact that
Mr.. Mcnamara chose General
Dynamics over Boeing because
he insists that the General Dy-
manic design was closer to q

by the Air Force and Navy anc
that Beings design actually
was two different planes which
; would have made an award tt

Methods Outlined

Mr.. McNamara's most signif-
icant single cost-cutting move
has been the creation Of the
Defense Supply Agency to buy,
stock and sell supplies common
to all the services.
BY wedding out excess In
ventory items - the Defense
Department has 4 million items
valued at $40.6 billion. Of which
$13 billion Is excess or long

and by controlling purchases,
the Defense Supply Agency, Mr.

system. A minor but memorable

History and HoPeweII
Go On Marching Along

HOPEWELL, Va. - History
stepped Virginia gets another
milestone this year-the 350th
anniversary of the Oldest per-
manent English settlement in
America.
1t was here that City Point,
now a part of Hopewell, was
founded in 1913 by Gov. Sir
Thomas Dale and here that
venerable Appomattox Manor
was built by the Eppes family
in 1853.
The manor, which opens to
visitors tomorrow for eight
months, played a prominent
part in the history of Colonial
Virginia.
During the Revolution, q
British force, under the traitor
Benedict Arnold, shelled the
manor and set it afire. but
servants put it out without
great damage.
City Point and AppomattoX
Manor became world renowned
during the Civil War. Early in
June, 1854, Gen. U. 8. Grant
set up his headquarters, there
to direct all the Union armies
in the field. Appomattox Manor
became the Pentagon of the
Civil War. President Lincoln
visited 1t often during the pc
Rod from June, 1864, until
April, 1865.
One of the interesting items
on display at the manor is the
Grimsley saddle which Gen
Grant used. At the end Of the
war, he presented 1t to Col
A. H. MARYLAND, who had served
with him the entire war, as a
token of esteem and respect
The heirs Of Col. MARYLAND
took the saddle from the
Smithsonian Institution, where
it had been for many years, to
display 1t at AppomattoX
Manor.
The manor is situated on q
high bluff overlooking where
the Appomattox River meets
the James. 1t is surrounded by
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-03-31

IA acres Of grounds, filled with
beautiful and interesting old
trees and shrubs, ancient box
and a Reconstruction" garden
When DR.. Richard Eppes re-
turned to Appomattox Manor
after the Civil War, he found
his beautiful Colonial garden
completely destroyed. He built
a Reconstruction" garden -
vegetable plots bordered and
surrounded by box, figs, grapes
roses and other flowers.
The manor is entirely fur
nished with Eppes family fur
niture and furnishings, except
for the room Gen. Grant used
as an office. This has been re-
constructed as much as possible
like 1t might have been when
Grant used it.

County farmers and others
who specialize in such things as
baked goods and handcrafted
articles have found a new and
different outlet for their wares
"a farm market" now operat-
ing twice a week at the Atomic
Enegry Commission near Ger
mantown.
Every Tuesday and Friday,
from IL am. to 2 pm, part of
the Acc parking lot now bustles
with miniature farmers market
activity. Acc employees can buy
everything from fresh fruit to
Dutch Delft tiles, smoked hams
to homemade bread and pies,
crisp vegetables to homemade
chill sauce. The only restric-
ton is that the foods must be
homegrown and other items
homemade in the area.
Some Acc employees live as
far away as Virginia. Grocery
shopping is a problem since the
new plant is surrounded by
acres of lush Maryland farm
land devoid of shopping facili-
ties. The large, sprawling brick
and glass building could not
move closer to a shopping cen
ter, so local farm and dairy
