Page 6 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Saturday, December 6, 1952 Navy Seeks Appease Wrath Of Air Force By ELTON C. FAY WASHINGTON (#—The Navy has given a soft answer to turn away | new Air Force wrath over the sea service’s plans for bigger carriers and more planes. Practically all hands, including Navy Secretary Dan A. Kimball and the Navy League (unofficial civilian voice for the Navy) started out yesterday to make sharp an- swer to recent critiques by Air Force proponents of naval sea Power. But the apparent moderating in- fluence of unification in the Penta- gon, plus the fact that Defense Secretary Lovett has had some kind words for the Navy’s projects, |. brought progressive changes in what Navy speakers had to say. Thus, Kimball originally pro- posed to say at a Navy League dinner that he was “more than slightly disturbed” by people (he meant Under-secretary of Air Ros- well Gilpatric) saying “we have four Air Forces” instead of one Then Navy public relations an- nounced the text had been amended to say Kimball was “somewhat disturbed when I hear people in @ spirit of criticism’ imply that when any of the services has a weapon that another service is also using, this is a great waste” and that he disagreed with that. By the time Kimball actually made his speech last night he had dropped even the toned-down ref. | erence. Frank A. Hecht, League presi- dent, in a statement he read, be- gan by noting “several statements by high officials of the Department of the Air Force, by prominent retired Air Force officers and by officials of the Air Force Associa- tion, all of which have been criti- cal of Naval and Marine aviation and the purpose of which is appa- rently to cast doubt as to the use- fulness of carrier task forces and to question the need for any form of military aviation outside of the Air Force.” However, with this introductory remark disposed of, Hecht fol- lowed up with the assertion that: “We believe a public contro- versy between the Navy and the Air Force would serve only the interest of Joe Stalin. © “Furthermore, we decline to be | mouse - trapped into a position where the public will get the im- pression that the Navy is foment- ing disunity in the armed forces by any action on our part. . . In| these critical times the Navy League will not pour sand in the! gear - voxes of unification in the Pentagon.” Public ‘Warned Of Chlorophyll Intake Danger NEW YORK ® — Chlorophyll | compounds sold to be taken by | mouth for deodorizing may be | harmful if taken in large quantities | says Dr, Alsoph H.
