As the ceremony commenced, Defense Sec’y Will Address New Congress WASHINGTON W#—Secretary of Defense Lovett will appear before the House Armed Services Com- mittee next week to outline views |; that may start Congress working on a new blueprint for the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Lovett said in a report yesterday that the Joint Chiefs, the country’s top military planners, were among the military agencies that should be improved, possibly by law. Rep. Short (R-M0), chairman - designate of the House committee, told a reporter today Lovett would appear either Thursday or Friday. The session may be closed to the public. 78 Short said the secretary’s ideas might start a congressional investi- gation of the problem. The defense secretary said some legislation might be required and also urged a review of the Unifica- tion Act, which integrated the serv- ices under the Defense Depart- ment, to make it more flexible. Lovett has not indicated what suggestions he made in a recent memorandum to President Truman Proposing military changes. But on Capitol Hill the Joint Chiefs have been criticized mainly because each member, except the chairman, is head of his service as well as its representative on the major planning board. Some congressmen say this means carrying inter-service rival- ries into the top military echelon, s well as requiring each service ead to occupy two demanding and sponsible positions. They advo- jcate separating the two jobs, so |that the Joint Chiefs can devote full time to overall planning.
