.» They know they have a task ahead in getting across to the people back home Gen, Eisenhower's warning that more men than now in sight will be needed in the army's job of pacifying and occupying (fermany and Japan, plus guarding billions of dollars worth of American property overseas, | The writing public, in it§ anger over wanting all veteran sens and husbantis home, has expressed strong opposition to universal training but bas shown little awareness that the draft act has an early expiration date. Deluge of Letters The moment action on it begins in congress another deluge of letters and telegrams is certain to follow. : Gen. Eisenhower's newest occupation figures—335,000 men in Europe and 375,000 in the Pacific after July 1—still leaves a serious problem" for the army to solve. Those forces will add up to 710,-
in addition to those overseas. 7 Some Fancy Magie Unless that over-all figure is materially reduced and if the draft is allowed to die off May 15, the government will have to learn some fancy magic if it is to meet its needs. About 150,000 men have been drafted since VJ-day another 150,000 are to be called before May 15. Thus far fewer than 400,000 have enlisted, as regulars, and the international uproar over demobilization has slowed veteran volun. ring to less than 10 per cent of harges. {Like draft war veterans, peacetime draftees cafinot be held under selective service act for more n six months gfter the war offilly ends. President Truman Was utioned congress against. hasty declaration of the “end of the tion.” Agitation for that act of congress now begifining to be felt. £ Furthermore, although the army s plenty of top grade officers; 1s short of lieutenants and captains, and few veterans are listening to bids to become regulars. ' What that adds up to is an army and state department headache, especially since the President is yet to negotiate the American portion of the United Nations organization world police force. Navy and marine corps troubles are slight compared to the army's. | navy am is 550,000 officers and | n by Sept. 1, and the marine goal:is 100,000. Voluntary enIstments and an officer surplus to select from. promise to take care of those totals. t According to the census bureau, 1,170,000 youths will reach 18 in this country in 1946, as against dn alltime high of 1,281,000 in 1940.
