Post: War Force Backed By Reserves.
WASHINGTON, 3 Bept. 2 (U. P)— Gen. George C.. Marshall, warniig at & lrg gal dry in ult) Jeace, “has np no/place among the 3 bas of a’modern democratic state,” has told post-war army planners that the American army must consist of the smallest possible professional Srganization packed by
In & drive issued as basic policy for army officers planning the permanent pdst-war army. cr-
_ ganization, Marshall warned, how"ever, that a large army be needed long after the axis powers fall to establish whatever armistice conditions are agreed upon by the Marshall said his directive gress will approve a system of universal military training. - “Two Types of Armies The chief of staff pointed out , that there are two types of military ~ organization through which =the manpower of a-nation may be developed. The first of these is the army system used by Ger-
many and Japan.
“It produces highly efficient armies, but it Is open to serious political objections,” the directive said. “In a nation maintaining such a system, intelligent opinion as to military policy is concentrated in a special class. “Under such a system the people themselves are competent to exert only a limited intelligent influence on the issues of war and peace. Under such a system only the brawn of a people is prepared for war,
" there being no adequate provisions -for developing the latent military
leadership and genius of thé people as a whole. “The, second type of military in-
‘stitution through which the na- ‘ ‘tional manpower can be developed,”
Marshall said, “is based upon the
‘conception ‘of a professional peace
establishment * (no larger than necessary to meet normal peacetime requirements) to be reinforced in
. Ume of emergency by organized.
units drawn from a citizen army reserve, effectively organized for this purpose in time of peace; with full opportunity for competent citigen soldiers to acquire practical experience through temporary. active service and to rise by successive steps to any rank for which they can definitely qualify.”

VATICAN CITY, Sept. 2 (U. P). —Pope Pius, in a broadcast message noting the fifth anniversary of the war, offered a 10-point peace program last night, warned against vocated social and economic re-
acknowledged that force may be necessary—even desirable—to maintain peace. ~The message, ane of the most outspoken ever delivered from the | Vatican, was addressed to the Christian peoples of the worid— Catholics and non-Catholics—who he said were shocked at the “road {of tears and blood” and the “abyss of misery” brought upon humanity by war, Although he did not mention| communism or Russia, the Pope probably referred to communism in commenting on totalitarian measures. ; “Do we, perhaps, intend to jerpetuate economic conditions of wartime, whereby in certain countries the state controls all means of production and provides for everybody and everything at the cost of severe disclipline?” he asked, Warning against political extremes at the moment when a new world is about to be created, the Pope emphasized that Christian principles should be the basis of a post-war world and cautioned the people against being led into accepting atheistic principles.

Judge Rhoads declared “the ¢ommissioners had no legal right to change any budget estimate of my court or any other court.” Judge Rhoads submitted a budget calling for salary increases of $10 monthly for seven probation officers and a $600-a-year boost for the chief probation officer. These items were cut out by and the council now is forced to pass the altered budget since it has been advertised as required by law. Councilmen said the study of the budget will be completed today and that the levy will approximate the 44-cent levy now in effect.
