McElroy Rewording Will
Merger of Armed Forces
WASHINGTON (/P)—A compromise rewrite appeared in store yesterday for President
Eisenhower's bill to reorganize the country's defenses.
• Secretary of Defense Neil H. McElroy told critics of the plan he was willing to search
for language affording a common ground, though he stuck to the administration's objectives.

the ex-Comm ist whose de
portation case h. s stirred up a
tempest in the I migration De
partment—was flo wn back yester
day from Helsin I by the U.S.
government to h. ve his full day
in the courts of • emocracy.
Already the co its were in ac

Minnesota durin , the depression
30s—he describe, these activities
as efforts to wi unemployment
insurance and ol age pensions.
Shortly after he stepped out of
an airliner at toe same airport
from which he was whisked one
week ago, a federal judge ordered
the San Francisco immigration
director and his assistant to show
cause why they should not be held
in civil contempt.
Judge Edward P. Murphy told
the director, Biuce Barber, and
the assistant, Stanley Olson, to ap
pear in court May 2.
He denounced as "repulsive and
abhorrent" the' way Heikkila, a
draftsman, was deported without
being allowed to contact his wife
or his lawyer.
Mikoyan Makes Pitch
Against W. German Arms
BONN, Germany (/P)—So
viet Deputy Premier Anastas
I. Mikoyan made a strong
pitch yesterday to the forces
opposed to arming West Ger
man troops with atomic wea
pons.
He declared that if the Bonn
republic would renounce atomic
weapons, the Soviet Union would
never—even in the event of war
with the West drop atomic
bombs on- West Germany.
The issue of arming West Ger
man troops with atomic weapons
is a burning political issue in
West Germany. The opposition
Socialists are bitterly fighting
such a step.

Concluding his appearance be
fore the Senate Armed Services
Committee on a conciliatory note,
the defense chief said "there
seems to be quite an opportunity
for the mutual working out of
language" to clarify what the ad
ministration wants in the way of
Pentagon changes.
The President's campaign to
centralize Defense Department
authority was started April 3. He
has asked Congress for significant
chanes in the law governing the
relation between the department
and the separately administered
military services.
McElroy's conciliatory state
ment followed a charge by Rep.
Paul J. Kilday (D-Tax.) that
the administration's proposals
aye too drastic. Kilday com
plained the program submitted
to Congress contained "too
many dead cats" that had been
offered and rejected over the
years.
Under questioning by commit
tee members, McElroy specifically
agreed to give "sympathetic at
tention" to finding "common
ground" to calm fears that the
traditional military services
might conceivably be abolished
under the proposed reorganiza
tion.
The defense secretary said this
after being asked po in tedly
whether the administration would
continue to insist upon its request
for a change in the law elimina
ting the provision that the mili
tary services shall be "separately
administered."
Mikoyan &Is° told West Ger
many to quit showing hatred to
ward the Soviet Union and to
work to bring about friendly and
peaceful relations between the
peoples of the two countries.
He spoke in offering a toast to
the signing of trade and consular
pacts between Bonn and Moscow.
Heinrich von Brentano, West
German foreign minister, joined
Mikoyan in pledging to work for
better relations.
But in a pointed reference to the
fact the Russians have their own
atomic weapons, he said: "We are
at any time prepared to lay aside
all weapons including atomic
weapons if the Soviet Union
does the same."
Earlier, Soviet and West Ger
man leaders clasped hands over
their first pacts with each other.

the policy will have failed.
"But there is nothing to be
gained by being half-hearted
about the deterrent policy ..." he
said. "Peace has been preserved
so far not because the West has
disarmed but because the present
balance of power is roughly
equal."
Macmillan denounced the La
