Droftees' and Veterans Guide
BY Mai. Themes N. Niol-

"The men we train under the draft
will not get broomstick training,
the Army says.
If you remember October. 1910,
you recall that a lot Of the draftee
and other training was broomstick
variety. Guns were scarce and the
left-face, rtght-face boys did the
best they could with whatever sub
Stitutes came to hand.
But this time. says the Army, no
broomstick training.
Where will you be sent for your
training, anyway? What kind Of
training are you going to get? How
long does it take? Where do you 60
from there?
Until October there were four
Regular Army training divisions. To
handle the men who come In
through the draft and the regular
enlistees, the Army has opened up
four more. Here they are:
Camp Pickett, near Petersburg,
Va; Ford Ord, Monterey, Calf; Fort
jackson, Columbia, 8. c.; Fort Dix,
Trenton, N. j.: Fort Riley, near To-
peka, Kans.: Camp Breckenridge, in
Western Kentucky; Fort Knox,
Louisville, KY, and Camp Chanee,
Fort Smith, Ark.
With a few exceptions because
there always are some), you will 60
to one Of those training camps from
your induction station. y
So, you want to know, which one?
Evening star., 1948-11-01

Again keeping in mind those rare
exceptions, you will 60 to the train
ing camp nearest your home.
You will stay at your training CEN
ter about 10 weeks. Eight of those
will be given over to basic training.
The other two are saved for process
ing you into and out Of the place.
The former procedure Is the most
complicated. You'll get tests and
tests, shots and shots, talks and in
structions and become accustomed
to getting up very early in the morn
ing.
After basic training, the chances
are you'll get a quick lesson on how
to pack 5 cubic feet of belongings
into AZ -cubic-foot space. Then
you leave your training center and
60 somewhere else.
Or you might not. Here Is a quick
list of the things that might happen
to you after your basic training:
l. Stay at your training center and
go to a school there. Leadership
school, say, or the music school.
2. Stay at your training center as
part Of the posts complement.
3. Go to Oficer Candidate School.
There are many Ifs, ands and butts
to that one, to be explained later.
4. Go to some Regular Army
school.
5. Get assigned to a Regular Army
unit, either here or abroad. That's
what most of you viii do.

Those ,uho oppose the plan claim:
School construction under the
charter would be brought to halt
because of the 7 per cent limitation
on the county's bonded indebted
ness, as proposed in the plan
At present, the county Is over
this figure and, to build more
schools, the real estate tax rate
would have to be raised to "astron-
omical heights" II the charter were
approved.
Residents actually would not have
home rule, since the council would
have no control over the Washing
ton Suburban Sanitary Commission.
which has jurisdiction over sewers
and storm water drainage; the
Maryland-National Capital Park
and Planning Commission. which
concerns itself with parks and rec
reational facilities: the Board of
Education and the Liquor Board,
whose members are appointed by
the Governor.
In fact. the county commissioners
already have authority to do every
thing the council could do, except
issue bonds. under provisions of a
law passed at the 1945 session Of
the General Assembly.
If the charter is adopted, the
local controls held by suburban
area residents through county build
ings in Silver Spring and Bethesda
would be abolished and all power
would be concentrated in the hands
of q county manager in Rockville.
The council could enact legisla-
ton during only one month a year
in May. This would leave nd
loophole for emergency action at
other times. Under the present
system, the General Assembly can
be called into special session at any
time.
The present system Of checks and
balances. with legislation passed
at Annapolis subject to a veto by
the governor. would be eliminated.
The council would pass its own
laws and then enforce them. While
the charter has q veto provision.
it is illogical to assume the coun-
Gil would pass legislation and then
veto its own acts.
