Orders by Gen. J. V. Allard, chief of the defence staff, that the commander of Maritime command report directly to him merely spelled out a_ policy which has applied sinse Aug. 1, 1964, to all six operational com- mands, a spokesman in Mr, Hellyer's office said. The message also promised that officers and men will be given a chance to be heard through their commanders on unification of the forces before Parliament sanctions a single armed service, The spokesman said Mr. Hell- yer and Gen. Allard were as- tonished that the direct line of communication to the chief of the defence staff was apparen- tly unknown to Rear-Admiral William Landymore, fired Tuesday as Maritime com- mander, and to his successor, Rear-Admiral John C, O'Brien. Mr. Hellyer's office said a breakdown in communications applied only to Maritime com- mand and Gen. Allard's mes- sage was intended to make it perfectly clear that the Mari- time commander had direct ac- H\cess to the chief of defence staff. Gen. Allard's message said: to him, manders by the chief of defence} "The Maritime commander is responsible directly to the chief of the defence staff for the em- ployment and operational effec- tiveness of the forces assigned Hellyer Gives Forces Chance To Air Views Minister Denies Change For Maritime Command over all Canadian maritime forces and has full responsibil- ity concerning the functioning of Maritime command. Within this area of responsibility, the Maritime commander will act as adviser of the chief of the defence staff. Within the new machinery being set up by the chief of the defence staff, the Maritime commander will par- ticipate in decision-making and will be consulted personally on all matters affecting Maritime forces." The message on command re- sponsibilities referred only to the Maritime commander and gave no details of the "new ma- chinery"' for communication be- tween the Maritime commander and the chief of defence staff, Mr, Hellyer's office said com- manders of each of the five other commands have similar responsibilities as those set out by Gen. Allard for the Mari- time commander. There had been no prob¥, of communication with to the other commands. The spokesman said Ge lard's message mak@ P change in the status of the six commands nor of the integra- tion policies. At the time Gen. Allard's message was issued Wedniy- day, the department had de- scribed the line of communica- tion between the six commands andthe chief of staff as passing through the branch heads im- mediately below Gen, Allard.
