MONDAY, MAY 5, 1958 The HURONITE and THE DAILY PLAINSMAN, Huron, S. D. PAGE NINE Truman Says Ike's Plan Originally His WASHINGTON (UP)- Formci President Truman has added Kiel to the controversy over President Eisenhower's defense reorganization plan by calling it "a duplicate" of one he proposed nine years ago. The ox-President said Eisenhower had merely copied a plan submitted to Congress in 1949 as a follow-up of the original Armed Forces Unification Act which set up a loosely knit Defense Department in 1947. Truman was questioned about military reorganization 'and otliei subjects 'on the NtJC television program "Youth Wants to Know" Sunday.

President Eisenhower has given the Truman plan credit for helping "coordinate our armed forces under one civilian head." But he made clear in submitting his new proposal last month that he felt Truman's move did not go far enough. Retired Army Lt. Gen. James M. Gavin Sunday had a similar criticism of Eisenhower's plan.

Interviewed on NBC-TV's program "Meet the Press," Gavin said the new proposal "is not very signicifant. We have got to go further than that bill." Gavin, who resigned five weeks ago in protest against the downgrading of the Army's role in overall defense planning, said the Pentagon must be changed to speed up decision- making processes. As things are, he said, decisions often are delayed for 10 months or more.
