the Rogers Act which would do
away with the 15-year rule and
substitute for it merely the quail
fication that foreign service en-

efficiency and loyalty. This would
enable the Government to utilize on
permanent basis the services of
citizens Of German and Japanese

Peace Outlook Dark,
Mrs. Luce Says in
Talk 10 churchwomen

-- '.I intend to vote for the principle
of military training because with
what I know about Europe and
Asia, I think 1t looks very black
ahead" Representative Clare Boothe
Luce, Republican, of Connecticut
told meeting of the United Coun-
Gil of Church Women last night at
the First Congregational Church.
The council is holding its Confer
ence on Uprooted Americans" here
through tomorrow.
Blaming the President and the
State Department for not taking
"the people of the United States in
to their fullest confidence on the
international situation" Mrs. Luce
said the whole argument on military
training will be fought on false
premises.
Only One Argument.
IT do not think the arguments
that military training aids health,
discipline or training in citizenship
are very Valid" she declared. There
is only one argument that will stand
up and that is we may be faced with
the likelihood of war in the next 10
years"
Mrs. Luce said "war is not in
evitable and can be prevented If we
can find some moral basis for peace" !"
She referred indirectly to the re-
cent OAR controversy and praised
the United Council for it's activity
in racial brotherhood. "I wish
this were true of all such women's
groups" she said, adding "those
who have read the papers recently
know it is not true"
Earlier, Representative Chase Co.
ing Woodhouse, Democrat, of Con-
necticut said the call for compulsory
military training makes us wonder
how we can work out our obligations
AS a leader of peace rather than of
war"
Hits Training Program.
At the afternoon meeting DR.. Joy
Elmer Morgan, editor of the Ma
tlonal Educational Journal, declared
adoption of the peacetime military
training program would be 1.-The be-
ginning OF the end of democracy in

serted, means I'VE shall 60 into every
home in the country and take young

life and faith and outlook is in the

State Department Maps Plans
For FOREIGN Information StuH

State Department officials were
unable to say what percentage OF
the Owl and OIAA stats would
be integrated into the permanent
foreign service. They are now pre-
pairing statistical studies on the sub
ject.
Some employees Of the two agen-
cies, it is understood, are worried
over the section of the Rogers Act
OF 1924 providing that aid career
foreign service officers must have
been citizens of the United States
for at least Is years.
Many owl and OIAA workers, ac-
cording to the State Department,
do not meet this requirement, and
have been employed because of their
knowledge of languages, habits and
psychology of their native countries.
In selecting members of the war
time auxiliary foreign service
which now numbers 900 compared
with 300 for the career service-the
State Department has been guided
by the principle of the Rogers Act,
but has not followed it in strict
practice. The rule has been to
screen people for intelligence and
loyalty to the United States.
