Navy viii Offer Plan
TO Take in 1000
|Trainees Each Year
Bv NiIIiom J. WheotIey

The Navy has formulated pro-
gram for building up q reservoir OF
trained personnel under q universal
system of military training, follow
ing, In general, the plan recently
announced by the Army, 1t was
disclosed last night.
The plan will be submitted to
the next Congress. It provides for
an annual quota Of 250,000 men to
be taken in for training at the
rate of 62,500 every three months,
OF the total each year, 10000 will
be turned over to the Marine Corps
for training. Insofar as 1t Is possible
to keep within the quotas for these
two services, the young men will
be permitted to select either OF the
two services.
| The plan has been worked out
under the direction of Rear
| Admiral Felix L. johnson, assistant
chief of the bureau Of personnel
for plans, and Capt. T. F. Darden,
director of the planning and con-
troll activity of the personnel bu-
reau.
The plan proposes six months Of
active duty for each trainee. This
would provide basic period for
all, including indoctrination and
disciplinary training at boot camps
or stations In various parts OF the
country. The program has not yet
crystallized sufficiently to determine
the amount of time the trainees
would spend In boot camps. but a
portion of the six months will be
spent either aboard ships of the
fleet or at naval aviation stations.
An elaborate school system is to
be worked out so that men can be
educated along specialist lines to
operate and maintain the very in
tricate technical apparatus with
which the Navy is equipped now
and which it expects to have for
the wars Of the future. Because OF
the intricacies Of modern machinery
and electronicS such as are found
on modern ships and In aviation
the. Navy believes 1t is necessary to
begin now to train the young men
to the point where they will be able
to take definite stations in the fleet
at shore stations and In the air arm
Immediately upon the beginning oil
another war.
Upon completion Of the intensive
active duty training and the school
ing, the trainees will be given the
option OF joining the Naval Reserve
or entering aviation candidate OF
other schools for the remainder OF
their training. The Navy does not
have a counterpart to the National
Guard. in which it is proposed to
assign Army trainees upon compile
tion Of their first six months OF
training.

especially in the larger cities.

been placed in a difficult position
because their employees could not
enjoy the f1ve-day week granted
most Government workers and most
employees of private industry. For
that reason, he said, the banks we're
finding it increasingly difficult to
engage employees.
Prevalent in Other Cities.
Representative Smith, Democrat,
of Virginia commented that the
arguments in favor of a fve-day
week for banks here would apply
equally to every bank in the United
States. If they should close here
Saturdays, he added, they should
close everywhere else.
Mr.. Addison pointed out that the
tlve-day week was becoming in
creasingly prevalent not only in
Washington but in other cities.
Bankers here in particular, he told
the committee, were finding it diff
cult to compete with the Govern
ment in hiring the necessary help
because the Government offered so
many advantages, including every
Saturday off in addition to regular
holidays.
The banks are compelled by law
to stay open unless Congress au-
thoriZes them to close on Saturdays,
he explained.
At present. Mr.. Addison said,
while local banks close at noon Sat-
urday, their employees are unable to
leave until later in the afternoon
and actually work about five and
three-quarter days every week.
No Opposition Appears.
He said the bankers would be will
ing to lengthen their public banking
hours during five days of the week
to make it more convenient for their
clients if there were no banking IA
cilities on Saturday. He also pointed
out that the Treasury, the banks
chief source of money, is closed Sat-
urday throughout the year and the
New York banks now are closed Sat-
urday four months out of the year.
The legislation also was indorsed
by the District Building and Loan
Associations.
No one apparel in opposition to
the bill today, and Mr.. Mcmillan
said he had received no communi-
cations opposing it.

said, "the alliance among the United

proposed amalgamating the League
of Red Cross Societies and the

into one strong international organ

Count Bernadotte pointed out the

had proposed that some members

members from neutral countries. He
