Name Gen. Trudeau As Gavin Successor Pledges Utmost To Defend Army Budget TOKYO (IP) — Lt. Gen. Arthur G. Trudeau, newly appointed U.S. Army research and development chief, said today he would do his best to defend the Army budget if called upon to do so by a congressional committee. The 55-yi‘ar-old former Army intelligence chief was notified today that he'has been chosen to replace Lt. Gen. James M. Gavin, who decided to retire in protest over lagging Army missile development. Gavin said he would not defend the new Army budget, which has raised questions as to whether the administration -is allowing the Army adequate money for development of new weapons. Trudeau, who was taking a break in Tokyo from his post as a corps commander in Korea, said at a news conference that he had defended the Army G-l and G-2 budgets. “If I have to do it here regarding the budget as a whole,” he said, "I will do the best I can.” in commenting on Russian missile develpoment, Trudeau'. said: “The greatest thing that happened in this situation was to destroy or at least reduce the complacency that has existed in many places. It gives us the hope that through a vigorous and positive attitude we can win out in solving the problems that face us.” Trade in a good town — Decatur SLEEP TONIGHT WITHOUT PAINS OF ARTHRITIS RHEUMATISM i or Your Money Bock! r “Take Pruvo tablets as directed today, f Prove to yourself there Is ho better . non-.narcotic relief from minor aches and pains of arthritis and rheumatism attacks.
