Urges Junior R0TC
In D. {. High Schools

Formation of Junior Reserve
Officers Training Corps for public
high schools in the Washington
area was urged last night by men,
bers of the Interfederation Confer
ence of Citizens Associations.
The proposal favoring compulsory
military training was referred to
constituent units of the conference
for further discussion and action.
G. Stephen Duvall of Montgomery
County, chairman of the Military
Training Committee, in his report
to the group pointed out that such
action would provide instruction in
military science and tactics for high

IMcNutt Undertakes
Task Of Finding Jobs
|For Ex-Servicemen

Deprived of control over the draft
War Manpower Chief McNutt has
jumped into another full-size job
the task of returning millions OF
soldiers and sailors to civilian life.
While McNutt's United States
Employment Service is only one of
more than dozen agencies now
working on the problem, the VINO
director told press conference
yesterday he expected no jurisdic-
tional dispute in handling demobil-
ization.
There has been speculation over
who would coordinate the task Of
converting the Nations manpoWer
to peacetime pursuits. 1t was ex-
pected the assignment would come
eventually from the White House
Mr. McNutt outlined plans for:
l. Placing veterans in jobs. About
100000 persons now are leaving the
armed services every month, VINO
officials said Placing them now is
simple" Mr.. McNutt said in a
statement, therefore, the program
during wartime will be designed to
gain experience for the huge as
signment when peace comes.
2. CounSeling veterans in all their
problems, Mr. McNutt said the en-
ployment service Office in each COM
munity would serve as a single place
where the veteran can 60 to get all
the answers and services to which
he is entitled,
8. -ordinating Government ac-
tivitieS.
Mr.. McNutt said the only de-
mobilization function which Con-
|gress delegated to Selective Service
is returning servicemen to their old
jobs, if they want them. He said
his program does not conflict with
that function.
Mr. McNutt's experimental de-
mobilization program will begin in
January at six local Offices of the
employment service, in New Haven,
Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Fort
Worth, ST. Louis and Los Angeles.
Evening star., 1943-12-21

Federation told members of the con-
ference that training for the Junior
ROTC would include three hours
a week during the school year and
three summer months in camps
for two years. An alternative was
suggested whereby boys could COM
plete the compulsory training by
attending a military camp for one
year.
Daniel M. Greene of Prince
Georges County reported that his
federation had voted against COM
pulsory military training, proposing
a year of physical training instead.
Reporting for the Arlington
County Federation, E. L. Bennett
announced that his organization had
approved an increase of from $3.50
to 81 200 annually from the State
for school teachers and proposed a
more strict enforcement OF the law
prohibiting lettering around polling
places on election day.
Conference officers for the coming
year will be elected at the January
meeting, it was announced.
DR.. Victor Meyers presided at the
meeting, which was held in the
Board of Trade room in The Star
Building.
