WASHINGTON C en-. George
c. Marshall, chief of staff, told the
senate military affairs committee,
1t would be absolutely impossible"
to build the army to its essential
strength unless civilians are
drafted.
Marshall said that in his opin-
ion the voluntary system is I'M
democratic, unscientific. unbusi-
ness-like and inefficient because
1t prevents the army from obtain
ing men when they are needed and
ascertaining 1.-The quality of the
tools we must work with"
The army, he added, must have
a period of preparation for
strengthening the national de-
Tense, and lay proper plans to feed,
quarter and maintain the health
of its men. Only on planned
basis can this be done intelli-
gently, he said.
Our situation today is utterly
different than that of 1917" he
said. I'VE felt no peril then. We
could plan deliberately, send troops
to Europe and train them after
they got there. The security of
this country now depends on hav-
ing trained, seasoned soldiers in
adequate numbers at the time we
need them. We cannot speculate
with the security of this country"

which Gen. Gamelin was quoted:
I'm my opinion, operations in the
Middle Orient must be led by the
British high command and in the
Caucasus by the Turkish command,
since the latter operation will be
carried out through Turkish forces
in cooperation with the air force
and possibly special contingents."
The document relating to the
projected Finnish campaign said
that in an inter-Allied military dis
cussion of January 31-February 2
the English decidedly favored opera
tons against Northern Sweden ore

operation was renowned by the
Allied Supreme War Council Febru-
airy 5.
The document gave purported de-
tails of Allied plans for operations
In Finland, with the cooperation
of the British and French fleets,
and said, Opening of the Nordic
theater of war offers extraor-
binary interest. Aside from the
moral advantages, the blockade be-
comes more effective, but foremost
1t is cutting off ore transport to
Germany which counts.
I'm this connection, the operation
in the Balkans, if combined with
the Scandinavian undertaking,
would be apt to strengthen economic
throttling of the Reich Mill
tarily, action in the Balkans would
be more advantageous for France
than in Scandinavia"

Labor Bodies 10 Make
Inventory Of JobIess

Representatives Meet
With HiIImun to Work
Out Unified Policy

Labor organizations cooperating
with the National Defense Advisory
Commission prepared today to sub
init an inventory Of their unem-
ployed members who would be avail
able Immediately for defense In
dustries.
The c. I. O., A. r. L. and indie
pendent organizations appointed
committees which met yesterday
with Sidney Hillman, chief of de-
Tense personnel for the commission,
to work out unified labor policy in
the production of arms, ships and
aircraft.
The Is members were formed into
q labor policy advisory committee
and Mr.. Hillman announced that
their first recommendation called
for the ALLEGATION OF orders for de-
Tense materials in way to make the
fullest possible use of workers now
unemployed Individual committee
members declared they would urge
that preference be given to unem-
FNNS ~ avn Al VIC piOSI Oil W VI dIIl
workers in new skills for defense,
a policy already in effect at voca-
tional schools which opened Mon
day.
1t was considered likely that one
representative from each group of
organizations would perform the
duties of the Labor Committee. The
committee recommended Van A.
Bittner, chairman of the Packing
House Workers Organizing Com
mittee, c. I. O.: D. w. Tracy, pres
ident of the International Broth
erhood of Electrical Workers, A. F
L.. and Samuel j. Hogan, president
OF the National Marine Engineers
Beneficial Association, to recon-
mend policies leading to mainte-
nance of labor standards and slim
ulation of employment.
The various organizations agreed
to make an inventory of experience
and skills Of unemployed members,
so that they would be available in
stantly to private industry. Each
reported large numbers of techni-
cally skilled men were now unem-
ployed.
