He said it could involve | “far-reaching changes" In the level of American armed forces. But he said this does not mean neeesI sarily that the proposed changes 1 will be accepted and put into effect by the defense department. Quarles was asked if a reported dispute among top Wiilitary lead 1 era on manpower size would be referred to President Eisenhower. He did not answer directly, but said there was no doubt that the final manpower plans would be presented to the President when they are "worked up.” The air secretary said military leaders “always” are studying the question of force levels. He said the “fact that they are considering differeuUjxtssibilities has heen put completely out of focus.” Quarles made the statements to the United Press Sunday as he left for London. He will confer with British officials today and Tuesday and then go to Paris to confet .with Gen. Lattris E. Norstad. new commander of the-North Atlantic treaty forces. July 19-22.
