Speedy Action
On Compulsory
Training Asked

WASHINGTON. Nov. 81. tSpeciaD
Favoring members of the House
Postwar Military Policy committee,
in a formal report, call for early
consideration OF compulsory military
training. The report, signed by Rep
resentative Clifton A. Woodrum
DD. Virginia, declared universal
training as the most important
item on the calendar and went on
to say 1t should be most carefully
explored at an early date"
Originally slated for consideration
during the current session OF Con-
gress, compulsory training legisla-
ton has been postponed until early
next year.
DELAY ASKED BY ARMY
The postponement, requested by
the War Department, was ordered
because OF growing opposition to
pending proposals requiring every
able bodied youth TO undergo at
least one year of military training
in peacetime.
1T has been found necessary, be-
cause of opposition based on appar-
ent lack CT knowledge. TO educate
the public to the necessity for peace
time training" said an influential
member of the House Military COM
mittee. This educational program
will require about month or so and
will be undertaken by the American
Legion"
Both Woodrum and Chairman An
drcW J. May ID Kentucky. OF The
military committee have expressed
willingness to 20 ahead with the
leeiflaiion as soon as possible.
MAYS COMMENT

more difficult it will be-" May said.

noittee will approve the legislation
DESPITE opposition. In the form of
letters and petitions. which has been
mounting In recent weeks. Most OF
the opposition. he said. comes from
churchmen. educators "and pacifisfs.

aviatorS training. The men who
leave here are the men we are de-
pending on to defeat the enemy.
yet there apparently are land
lords here who won't help these avi-
ators to get the training they should
have by seeing 10 1t that their in
structors have place TO live.
That is exactly what 1 was told
over the telephone. One woman told
me she had a room which she had
been renting for 81 week, and
when the OPA cut her rent to 81
she simply took it off the market.
Il have also in mind the case of
friend of mine. marine captain.
who was forced with his wife, to
leave the house in which they were
living because the landlord insisted
on moving in.
They had to move into an ele-
phant hut out at the base. Under
regulations. they can occupy that
makeshift only until December 81
Thereafter they have TO move, and
so far they have found no place to
mCve TO.
IF there are rental quarters
available i'm FL Centro 1t is the pa
triotic duty of every landlord to rent
them. and to rent them at reason
able prices
