General Matthew B. Ridgway
'Unqualified Support' Promised
To Men And Women Of Army
WASHINGTON—General Matthew B. Ridgway addressed the follow
ing message to men and women of the Army after he was sworn in as
Army Chief of Staff:
"TO* THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE ARMY:
"Upon being sworn in as Chief of Staff United States Army I
thought it appropriate to address brief remarks to the small group of
distinguished guests present at the ceremony. In fact however I
was speaking not to them alone but also to all of you—both in and out
of uniform—wherever you may be stationed. The remarks were
these:
"When the President transmitted to the Congress his plan for re
organizing the Defense Department which plan has since become law
he emphasized two essential objectives—the maintenance of demo
cratic institutions and the protection of the integrity of the military
profession.
"The first is clear. It means in my case service under the direct
personal command of a distinguished civilian of highest integrity
Secretary Stevens and through him under another great American
patriot of highest character Secretary Wilson.
"Today more than ever our future depends on the moral stature
of those clothed with great authority. We are very fortunate to have
these civilian commanders.
"The President's second objective while likewise clear to us needs
much continuing explanation to many in our Government and cer
tainly to the American people.
"The integrity of the military profession is indispensable to an
effective efficient military establishment and that in turn 1o the
Nation's security. The term itself 'integrity of the military profes
sion" implies an Officer Corps of such character and competence as
will provide the highest professional and spiritual leadership and a
Non-Commissioned Officer Corps indoctrinated and inspired by the
Officer Corps whose precepts are its guides and whose standards it
emulates.
"It implies fearless forthright expression of honest objective pro
fessional military views.
"It implies completely loyal excution of decisions once announced
by proper civilian authorities.
"To attain this second objective will require a full recognition by
civilian authority of the qualities of integrity devotion to duty and
loyalty and extension by the civilian commanders of a like loyalty to
the military services.
"As a fundamental institution in the development of our national
life the United States Army has played a proud historic role. It has
produced leaders unsurpassed in character competence and courage
—moral equally with physical.
"I accept with pride and trust in Divine guidance the challenge of
continuing the service of great distinction which my predecessor Gen
eral J. Lawton Collins has rendered. It shall be my constant purpose
within the scope of my responsibility and authority to insure that the
highest traditions of the United States Army are maintained in all
their finest aspects that the Army accomplishes in full its assigned
missions and that the men and women who wear its uniform and
their dependents receive the full measure of respect and consider
ation from their country-men which their high-principled devotion and
utter loyalty in both peace and war so fully merit.
"Today my admiration for you the American soldier is greater
than ever and I can find no adequate words to express my own feel
ings of humble pride in sharing service of country with you.
"You will have my complete and unqualified support. I shall ex
pect yours."

The reduction of the Air Force
program for the procurement of
aircraft is not based on a search
for savings according to James
H. Douglas Acting AF Secretary.
Under President Turman he be-
is the result of normal re-examina
tion of procurement and it will
not adversely affect the delivery
of the modern combat planes re
quired to equip the Air Force.
A total of $28.6 billion was obli
gated by the Defense Department
during the fiscal year 1953 for the
procurement of major equipment
and supplies military construction
and expansion of military produc
tion facilities. The Army obligat
ed $6.5 billion Navy $7.8 billion
and the AF $14.2 billion while in-
terdepartmental construction led
to obligation of $0.1 billion.
