POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF SEPARATE MINISTRY

પ

New York, April 10,

The recent establishment of a separate Ministry of the Navy by the Soviet Union is-potentially, at least one of the most significant military developments of the year.

It would seem to mark a definitive step in what Admiral Forrest P. Sherman, Chief of Naval Operations, has described as a reawakening of mari- time ambition in Russia.

RECOVERY COLOR BY PROGRESS

Washington, April 9, Senator Millard Tydings, chairman of the Senate Arm-

ed Services Committee, re- porting today on his recent trip to the Hague for the meet- ing of the North Atlantic Pact Defence Committee, said that he found post-war reconstruction advanced to wpoint where Europeans could do a little more for national defence.

Economic recovery was visible "Hames are going everywhere. up, factories are being revitalised and reopened, bridges destroyed by bombing are being rebuilt There are many signs of life and renaissance, one might say, in all these countries.

"It has been gradual and slow because it takes money and re- venue to do I, but they are. com. ing to the front with increased speed and now it is possible for them to devote a little more time and governmental revenue to na Honal defence."
