introduced in Congress on the sub
ject of universal training will prob
ably expose the REASONS for their
fear.
Any program of compulsory
youth training that only PRE-
TENDED adequate military pre-
paredness as it's purpose, and
actually conspired for the REGI-
MENTATION of American youth
and it's impregnation with theological
conceptions alien and repugnant to
American history and tradition,
would be a menace to democratic
America and would be capable of it's
destruction.
AT LEAST SOME of the support
IA for universal youth training
stems from subversive sources con-
spring for that very thing, and the
Congress must use every precaution
not to be deluded or persuaded by it.
That is why there is CONFI-
DENCE in the American Legion bill,
both in Congress and among the
people.
1t contemplates ONLY the giving
of sound military training to young
Americans, the building up of their
physical and mental health, in an
atmosphere rigidly faithful to the
democratic institutions and prin-
ciples of America.
It REJECTS the subversive and
vicious scheming in other quarters
for a program of youth training that
would use the facilities of such
program not to prepare young Amer
leans for the defense of their country
but for its remolding in some totali-
tartan pattern.
There is only one other nation
that has succeeded over long period
of years and through the two great
w9Sld wars in preserving its de-
mocracy and at the same time achiev-
ing military security through
national youth training-and that is
the democratic and still peaceful
Swiss nation.
The American Legion program
now before Congress seems to have
embodied the DEMOCRATIC
PRINCIPLES of the Swiss system.
The ultimate program approved
by Congress MUST adhere to the
democratic principles of the Swiss
system and the Legion bill, if it is to
have public approval and acceptance.
Detroit evening times., 1945-01-20
Universal Military
Training

UNLESS the American people are
~ willing to bury their heads in
the old and familiar sands of unpre,
paredness for national defense after
this war, there must be energetic and
enthusiastic public support of uni
versal military training program in
the present Congress.
There will probably be several
measures proposed to the new Con
gress designed to establish such a
program, and some of them will be
good measures and some bad.
There is in fact one comprehen-
sive measure already before the
Congress, and since it was prepared
by the American Legion-an organi-
cation comprising upwards of two
million veterans of the first World
War and the present war, many of
them veterans of both conflicts-it
should be very good measure, and
is certainly entitled to earnest con-
sideration by Congress.
THE American Legion bill has GER
Il tain merits that are Immediately
obvious, in addition to the fact that
it represents the thinking about war
of men who KNOW about war from
personal experience.
It is, first of all, the program of
an organization that for quarter of
a century has built up record of
consistent patriotic service to the
nation, and has adhered without
deviation to the highest patriotic
principles.
But it's greatest merit is in the
fact that it expresses an intense de-
termination and a profound faith
that a democratic nation can be
militarily prepared, and still remain
democratic.
That is going to be the final test
of public acceptance of any program
of universal training, and it should
be the sole test of congressional ap
proval.
The only reason there has ever
been ANY reluctance among the
American people about accepting
universal military training in peace
time is that they have been afraid it
would NOT preserve democracy, but
would become an instrument for its
destruction.
The people have been JUSTI-a
FLED in this fear.

DOLAND has not yet been made "con-

the process of ingestion is well along.

to recognize" the Polish government-in-

legitimate Polish regime-and that group

However, our recognition" of the gov
ernment-in-exile seems to be faltering,
and British hospitality toward its repre-
sentatives grows precarious.
For in recent days the "Lublin Com
mittee of National Liberation" set up

to dominate Poland, has declared itself to
be the provisional government"
AS such, the erstwhile committee has
asked for formal recognition by "all demo-
cratic countries" would include us.
1t has announced that it has two
armies in the field, both equipped by the
Soviet Union.
1t has served notice upon all the gov
ernments and business concerns in the
world that commitments made by the

in Poland.
