Volunteer: Army, Economy” Are Purposes.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 18 (U, P.) =~ * The army estimated today its move to speed up discharge of draftees wilt save the nation approximately $50 million between now and the * end of the year, Maj, Gen. W. 8. Paul, war de partment director of personnel, sald all draftees taken in during 1045 have been ordered discharged by Dec. 31. The order affected about 235,000 men; Another 200,000 are on ters minal leave or en route home for discharge. The army had 1745000 men on Sept. 30, Gen. Paul said, and will be cut down to 1,310,000 on Dec, 31, He said this was a part of the drive to reach a goal of an all-volunteer . army.’ It must be down to 1,070,000 by July 1, 1947. . Reliable army sources said the speed-up of discharges was an economy move dictated by Presi. dent Truman's effort to balance the national budget. Secretary of War Robert P, Patterson announced that the army’ had passed its recruiting goal of 1,000,000 volunteers on Oct. 7. But he said the army would require approximately 40,000 men a month of new volunteers to meet commitments, Gen. Paul said the success of the recruiting program would determine whether the army would be forced to resume drafting men on Jan, 1, 1047. A draft holiday has been declared for the remainder of this

year,
