S IKE (Continued trom poga ob«) defense reorganization plan could open the way in the future for some individual to take over absolute control of all the armed forces. He made the statement in reply to a question that Defense Secretary Neil H. McElroy had conceded Tuesday that the Eisenhower reorganization bill could theoretically strip an individual service chief of command of everything but his aide and orderly. The President said it would as much sense to say that Congress might suddenly go nuts and abolish the whole Defense Department as to say that the individual services ever would be stripped. He said it just was not possible if we are sensible people. Summit Moves “Puazling” —He said that the Russians had been indulging in a lot of overstatement in their charges that U.S. H-bombers were making provocative flights in the direction of Russia. He said all there was to it was that in times like this the bombers had to be gotten off vulnerable fields as a defensive measure when there is a possible alert. But he added that once they are off they have to get orders before carrying out any attack —He labelled Russian moves involving a possible summit conference as being really puzzling. He said that he could see no good coming from a summit conference just between himself and Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev. He said that all he could see that would result would be division between this nation and its Allies. —He said he had no informa- ; tion to indicate that Russian submarines have been conducting any reconnaissance campaign off i U.S. coasts. I —He seemed sqrpised that GOP National Chairman Meade Alcorn had said that it didn’t . seem to be in the cards for the Republicans could win control of the Senate this fall. He said that Alcorn, just before he made; such ; a statement to reporters at the ' White House Tuesday, had been most enthusiastic and encouraging ' when be bad talked to the chief ' executive. Anyway, the President said that he had never conceded ; defeat in advance.
