REFUSED TWICE

1t was further disclosed that
Bernstein had been refused liquor
licenses on at least two occasions.
The more recent was Nov. 30,
1874, when he appeared openly
and asked the commission to
license him as a partner in Turks.
G. a. Parrish, director of the
liquor commissions bureau of Ii
censing and enforcement, reported
to the commission that the
change was not recommended by
Detroit police because of his I'M
favorable reputation and charac-
ter, because he is a known po-
lice character and because Of his
police record" -.--------------
Bernstein's record dates back
tc 1881, when he was placed on
two years probation for attempt
ing TO break and enter in the
daytime. He was fined twice in
1885 for traffic violations. and in
1886 was sentenced 10 90 days
for obtaining money under false
pretenSes. .N>
lie was arrested on eight other
occasions for investigation, but
none of those arrests resulted in
conviction. One arrest was in con-
nection with an armed robbery
two with breaking and entering
Jobs, two with fraud cases and
another with a liquor law viola
ton.
Aaron said Herman Prujansky
registered proprietor of Turks
Bar had been cited TO appear
Thursday on charges of serving
minors and 10 discuss allegations
that Bernstein was q co-oWner.

Truman Asks. !.
Training for :.
18 70 20.

WASHINGTON, Oct. "a
INS)-President Truman, in
a message to Congress, today
called for early enactment Of
Legislation that would guar
|antee the nations future se.
|curity through q program Of
one years universal military
training for all American
manhood between Is and 20.
The President recommended
that every American man be
required to enter upon q year Of
military training on his eighteenth
birthday or upon graduation from
high school, whichever Is later.
but, In any event. before his
twentieth birthday.
These trained men would be.
come members Of q general re.
serve for q period Of six years
after their year W training.
In event of war, the trained
youth of the country would b
subject to call through the Sc
lective service system as In the
conflict just ended.
The President personally ad.
dressed Congress in a joint ses-
sion.
S-PONT PROGRAM
For the nations future defenses,
the President recommended this
three-point program:
"FIRST-A m o r atively
small regular army, navy and
marine corps.
\ SECOND A KrsatIy
4 strengthened national guard and
organized reserve for tho army,
navy and marine corps.
"THIRD-A general reserve
composed Of all the male citi-
zens OF the United States whe
have received training"
The President said that the
general reserve would be avail
able for rapid mobilization In
time of emergency, but II would
have no obligation to serve,
either in this country or abroad,
unless and until called to the
service by an act of the Con-
gress."
ASKS TRAINING PLAN
To provide this general reserve,
: the President asked that Congress
adopt "a plan for universal mill
tary training"
He asserted that "those who ars
loudest in their opposition to uni-
! versal training" have offered no
alternative suggestion to furnish
$ the protection and security the
nation must have. They have
offered, the President said, "noth-
: ing but pious hope and dangerous
wishful thinking"
Mr.. Truman told Congress that
universal training Is the only
means by which we can be pre-.
pared right at the start to throw
out great energy and our tremen-
dous force into battle"
