How you can help YOUR ARMY DO ITS PART FOR PEACE

A MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARY OF WAR With the President’s proposal for the discontinuance of Selective Service on March 31, America will rely on voluntary enlistments for the maintenance of the Regular Army at author* ized strength. In view of world conditions today, this is a step «f the gravest importance to every American citizen. Never before in history has any nation raised and maintained a million-man army by the volunteer system alone. Our ideals, our belief in individual freedom, our safety, our duty to promote world peace - are bound up in this decision. This is yovr Army, and voluntary enlistment is your choice. It must not fail. With your help it trill not fail. The Army must continue to provide mle<Riate occupation forces overseas, to supply these forces, and to help in keeping America strong and secure. Your help and understanding can do much to encourage a steady flow of 3-year voluntary enlistments, necessary to sound training and the efficient performance of the Army’s task. When you discuss this subject with your sons, brothers, husbands or friends who may be considering an Army career, bear in mind the advantages offered by a 3-year enlistment. Among them are the choice of branch of service and of overseas theater where openings exist, and the opportunity for training in valuable skills at Army schools. It is a high tribute to the loyalty and spirit us the

In the city's growing Industrial life. Notwithstanding the growth of industrial usage of electrical power In the past few years, he said, still more is being planned. This was definitely shown recently in a survey which he made throughout the city's industries, he declared. In answer to his queries as to whether they expected to demand more electrical power, many of the city's industries listed definite boosts which they expected to ask for in the next few years, he said.

American goldicr that two out ol every three men in the prawnt Army are veteran* - men who have known the hardships of war anti have choeen to continue their service. A job in the new Regular Army is a k<>*kl job - a job that compares favorably with the average in industry, and has more opportunities for promotion than most. You can help by giving your respect and support to the man who enlists voluntarily - to do his part in carrying out your country’s world-wide obligations to build a peace that will endure.
