UNIFIED CONTROL ADVOCATED (Rec. 8 a.m.) NEW YORK, Oct. 17. The merging of the War and Navy Departments into a single agency was advocated by Mr 11. P. Paterson,* the War Secretary, at a meeting of the Senate Military Affairs Committee. He said, the atom bomb and other lessons of the war indicated the desirability of a unified control of the land, sea, and air forces. Such a control was exercised through the war by tlie joint chiefs of staff after the Allies had learned from hard experience the difficulties of divided control.
