One Year III Training Feature.
The main feature OF the STAFF bill
will be its provision for one year Of
intensive military training for all
youths subject TO its terms II IS
expected that exemptions due 20
physical disqualification and for
other reasons, including possibly
the CONSUMPTION Of certain men for
work in Industrial plants necessary
In war times. would leave available
for army training between 100000
and 100000 Of the 100000 boys
who reach the age Of IS years each
year
In fixing upon a year as the min
imum time for training. the gen.
eral staff has followed the theory
that the United States seeks to pro-
vide only for an army Of defense. 10
has been stated 20 the house com
mittee by Maj. Gen. Hugh l.. Scott
that. although European nations
give every soldier at least two years
of hard work before turning him
into the reserve because Of the geo.
graphical position OF the country. a
year will suffice here. The argu-
ment advanced TO support this view
was that there would be sufficient
time TO give finishing touches TO the
military education of reservists after
war had broken out and before in
vading expeditions could be landed
in force.
