cordance with Army induction calls, General Hershey said. Now, he declared, mounting needs for military manpower make it desir- able to complete all classifications as soon as possible so that Army acquisitions for men, no matter how large, may be met promptly.
 A factor preventing quick change in the order of induction with re- lation to dependency, General Her shey asserted, is that the Army must make provision from 2 to months in advance for the recep- tion of inductees. Army Induction Stations and Reception Centers must be equipped and staffed con- siderably in advance of the arrival of recruits, he pointed out.
 Since calls for inductees are sent to the States from National Headquarters 50 days in advance, {" General Hershey said, lat least that period of time is required to conform to any change in policy or to carry out any revision of the order in which men may be in- ducted."

BY DANIEL DE LUCE
RANGOON, BURMA, Feb. 5
-(R-Balked from Martaban
by the swift-flowing Salween
River and the busy British artill-
cry on its west bank, the Japan
ese invaders of Burma today ap-
parently were forced to press 9
second-best bet: q Northward
push along the East bank while
continuing their air raids on this
capital.
The japanese already were at
Paan, q town on the Salween's
East Bank about 80 miles above
captured Moulmein.
The British said Smelling was
II, progress there, with the de-
tenders, artillery and planes re-
taiiating vigorously.
s(The Japanese claimed cap
tpre of Paan, but this was not
specifically acknowledged by the
British.)
In any case, the result was of
little value to the Japanese, since
! they remained thwarted in their
aim of crashing across the river
to cut off the city Of Martaban,
which sits on a peninsula formed
by the Salween and the gulf of
Martaban.
HEAVY FIRE
Since the first of the week
they have been trying by heavy
artillery fire and bombing to
make Martaban untenable for its
British and Indian garrison, but
British headquarters said this
effort had failed.
japanese skirmishers were re-
ported strung out all along the
lower Saiween front, but there
