Inductions Will Continue Even Under Partial Demobilization

WASHINGTON; Sept. (U. P.).~Members of ‘the house military affairs committee St general satisfaction today . with the army's plan for partial demobilization after Germany's defeat but warned that it would be some time before the men would get- home and that inductions would still continue, Rep. John J. Sparkman (D, Ala.) said two things should be made clear to the public: 3 1. It will take some. time .fo complete demobilization in Europe because the number of men discharged will depend tq an extent on the amount of shipping space available, 2. Selective service will continue inductions to build up new units and’ take care of replacements. “I'm afraid a,lot of people will get the®idea there will be no more indué€tions,” he said.
