listments in the Army are dropping
steadily, Secretary of War Patterson
says.
Addressing the Reserve Officers
Association last night, Mr.. Patterson
appealed anew for extension of the
draft without exemption for teen
ayers.
He said the biggest month for
volunteers was last November when
$4,000 enlisted and that there has
been a constant decline ever since.
The March figure was 72,OO0, and
April 10000, Mr.. Patterson said,
adding I'VE will be lucky if we get
10000 volunteers" in May.
The Secretary said an attempt to
meet Army manpower needs without
selective service, which now is due
to expire July /, would be "at best
a gamble"
The exemption of all men under
20, If continued, will Illustrate the
purpose of providing assurance of
adequate strength" Mr.. Patterson
