Jackson, United prosecutor, requested the international military tribunal today to substitute Alfred Krupp, son of Gustav Krupp Von Bohlen Und Halbach, as a defendant in the war crimes trials. Jackson filed his motion because the elder Krupp, head of the huge German armaments and steel trust, is too ill and aged to appear for trial If Jackson's motion is granted, a postponement of 10 days two weeks in the start of the historic trial is almost certain.

First of all, this official who asked that his name not be used, told a reporter that the War Shipping administration merely follows orders from the joint chiefs of staff, picking up troops "when and where we're told." He insists that WSA is meeting all schedules of the joint chiefs of staff. There was no comment from the joint chiefs, but Army spokesmen said a scarcity of seamen is an important factor in troop movements. These spokesmen said that on the west coast, for example, the lack of men for crews is so severe that the Army has assigned 280 soldiers to mess duties and 200 others to radio work on troop carriers working out of San Francisco. They added, however, that the Army expects to be only seven days behind its overall troop return schedule by Jan. 1.

Atomic, Training Measures Cause Rift in Congress WASHINGTON, Nov. 12-(P)- Atomic energy and universal training--two of the hottest issues on Capitol Hill have the House military committee split in two closely-balanced factions. The questions, both of which may be answered at a committee session tomorrow, are: 1. Whether to reconsider bill creating a federal commission with vast control over use and development of atomic energy. 2.

Whether to shelve until next year proposals calling for every American youth to take one year of military training. In each case, the outcome appears to be a toss up. Chairman May (D-Ky.) told newsmen he has the votes to stand back of the atomic energy bill as it is written and to continue hearings on the universal training measure. Committee Republican leaders, however, claimed that they have both plans blocked, at least temporarily. They emphasized that in each case they are not attempting to kill the legislation but are trying to get more time for its consideration.

Hearings on the universal training bill began last Tuesday but were interrupted when Representative Short (R- Mo.) moved to postpone them until next year. A vote was delayed until this week.

The First naval district in Boston today confirmed that Kiefer was one of the victims.

Several hours earlier a municipal official who declined use of his name had reported the commodore was among the dead. The plane, twin-engined craft, was enroute from Caldwell, N. to Quonset and was last heard from yesterday afternoon as it flew over Stewart field, West Point, N. Y. It crashed 15 minutes later.

The wreckage was found at 3 a. m. today. When 240 marines and Navy men reached the scene this ing they found the battered remains of Commodore Keifer, face downward with his splint -bound arm stretched out over a pile of soggy brown maple leaves. The body was 25 feet from the fuselage.

A cold, miserable rain beat down, a continuation of the fog and rain that prevailed through the area when the plane crashed. Bits of underbrush stuck out over the commodore's body. Nearby an uprooted tree lay flat on the ground, a root sticking into the air. On the root a Navy man hung Kiefer's muddy, gold-breaded hat. One of the commodore's arms has been in a cast since it was broken when Japanese suicide planes struck the aircraft carrier "Ticonderoga" during a battle off Formosa.

Kiefer was hit by 65 pieces of shrapnel as he stood on the bridge of the ship. Five feet from the commodore's body was another victim, face down with one foot sticking straight up and covered with a torn white sock. A hundred feet away lay another battered body, Bits of flesh and clothing hung from tree limbs 50 feet above the ground. Forty marines and 20 navy men from Quonset Point trudged two and one-half miles through mountainous underbrush to reach the bodies. It took them nearly two hours and many of them fell as they moved through the slimy mud and over slippery stones.

They could see only 50 feet because of the rain. They slashed through the brush to prepare a path to bring down the bodies. Tree tops near the scene were snipped off as if by a giant razor. Farther along the course of the plane trees were clipped in the center or split down the middle.
