Member Claims Volun-
teers Exceed Need

WASHINGTON, Nov Senator
Revercomb (D-WVA) said today that
unless the Army and Navy quit
drafting men this week" Congress
should proceed Immediately to end
Selective Service itself.
Reyereomb, a member of the Sen-
ate Military Committee. told a re-
porter figures show that the draft
which took millions Of men into
service-can now roll to a dead stop
without impairing occupation for
ces.
This comment was in amplifica-
ton OF a Senate speech in which
he said the voluntary enlistment
program is getting all the men the
Army and Navy need. Revercomb
added ON the floor that unless the
Services act promptly, There will
he legislation offered"
You recall that President Tru-
man fixed the number of draft
calls per month at $4,000 in order
not to delay the return of soldiers
who have served overseas he said
in the interview.
Now. it is very evident that VOL
unteers are far exceeding the selec-
tive service number 1t is a matter
of reasoning, matter of logical de-
duction.'
Revercomb also plugged hard for
the release of men with dependents.
He said the countrys peacetime
needs make it imperative for these
men to take up their lives in the
civilian economy.

The W ashinqton
Merry Co. Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON - Elder States
man Bernie Baruch revealed some
interesting figures on initiation re-
Gently in an off the-record session
with Ia younger Congressman at
his Shoreham Hotel apartment.
Baruch's prediction was that the
nation was hell-bent for initiation
and soon.
Piecemeal increases in wages,
profits and the cost of living have
been uneven, Baruch said, with
wages tagging behind. For that
reason he no longer favored his
pre-war idea of a freeze on both
prices and wages. Our only hope,
said the elder statesman, is that
we can weather the next six to
nine months without running into
serious Initiation. If we do that,
our chances of strong recovery
from the war boom are good.
THE huge, pent-up demand for
products which we will see during
the next nine months is a very
serious threat" said Baruch, stress
ing the Importance of holding
prices down.
He amazed his listeners by saying
that he is completely opposed to
tax reduction of any nature at this
time. mot only does the govern
ment lose needed revenue, but it is
an unhealthy thing for our gen.
eral economy" argued Baruch.
Representative Andy Biemiller of
Milwaukee asked what Baruch
thought of the statement by
General Motors President C. E.
Wilson that if wages are raised 80
per cent, prices must go up 80 per
cent. Baruch talked at some length
on the general question of raising
prices, but gave no direct answer.
Finally Biemiller repeated his
question.
I'm afraid I can't agree with
Mr.. Wilson," Baruch said.
WAGE, NOT PRICE INCREASE
Isn't it true that industry can
give a 80 per cent wage increase
