Navy Seeks $4,000
Men, With Age Limit
Extended 10 SO
Demand Exceeds Drives
Of World War Days;
Campaign Ends June 80
NJ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, MAY l6.-1n the
most sweeping demand for men in
the Nays history, even exceeding
the drives of World War days, the
Naval Recruiting Service has issued
a Nation wide call for $4,000 addi-
tional enlistments by June 80.
Orders were dispatched by Comdr.
FIX. OBrlen, officer in charge OF
the recruiting service, to 3l9 stations
throughout the country asking for
an immediate campaign to meet the
urgent needs of the expanding
United States feet.
The commander also announced
that the enlistment ages for Naval
Reserves, with or without previous
naval service, had been extended
from the II to SO year limit to 17-50.
"New units of the tWo-ocean Navy
are being commissioned daily, far
ahead of schedule Comdr. O'Brlen
said. 1T is imperative that the
enrolling and training Of the new
personnel proceed at an accelerated
pace in order that the essential
man power will be available"
In accordance with ruling
promulgated this week by Assistant
Secretary of the Navy Ralph Bard,
the newly enlisted Reserves will be
released from active duty as soon as
possible after the emergency ends.
The Nays total man power this
month was announced as 227 ,089 and
fleet Reservists and Reservists of all
other classes totaled $4,000 men. To
facilitate the new enlistments of
Reservists all IS main recruiting
stations and 284 substationS in the
country have been authorized to ac-
cept ReservistS, who previously were
enrolled only at IA Reserve centers.
Comdr. O'Brien said that Re-
servists with training as electricians,
radiomen or in other technical lines
would be given an opportunity to go
Into service with ratings as spe-
cialists, and that every new man
would be considered potential petty
officer material eligible for the
highest pay possible.

sess little significance, for the loca-
ton of training camps is matter
of common knowledge.
This holds good for new ships,
new planes and Navy construction
projects ashore, for shipyards and
aviation factories are not of a size
to be hidden, nor of nature to be
located in some remote mountain
fastness. In addition to thousands
of workmen, other thousands see
these yards and factories every day
and have a fairly good idea of what
is going on in them"
