quota of trainees who have COM
pleted their six months Of basic
training under the proposed Uni
versal Military Service law.
Additional Training Urged.
Those National Guard units
which remain at their home sta
ton while awaiting their turn of
active Federal service should be
given additional field, weekend
and school training in order to
reach the highest possible state
of efficiency"
Gen. Anderson said the United
States is entering upon a period
of partial mobilization of man.
power and industry that may last
a generation.
Such a mobilization will neces-
state the adoption of some form
OF compulsory military service to
balance the industrial and mill
tary requirements of the Nation,
the report read by Gen. Anderson
said. Korea has proved, he con-
tinued, that the Soviet govern
ment does not fear the military
potential of the United States, but
only its actual strength.
His remarks followed a report
by Maj. Gen. Ellard A. Walsh. of
Minneapolis. Mimi, president of
the association, who said it had
taken Korea to demonstrate that
the Nations expenditure of $50
billion dollars between 1945 and
1850 had been in vain.
Had but a fraction of that sum
been expended on a system of uni
versal military training and serv-
ice. Gen. Walsh said, 1--WE would
nave had an armed force in every
sense of the word, and there would
be no necessity of a proposal to
draft veterans of World War II.

Organizational activities took
up most of the morning session.
Brig. Gen. William H. Abendroth,
commanding the District National
Guard, welcomed the 800 dele
gates from all parts of the coun-
try and it's territories. He was
followed by John Russell Young,
president of the board of District
Commissioners, who welcomed the
delegates on behalf of the Ma
tional Capital.
Operation of the Selective Serv-
ice System under present condi-
tions was declared by Gen. Ander-
son to be unrealistic, both mill
tarily and financially. He charged
it with numerous inequities and
damaging ultimate effects on the
National Guard
THE selective service principle, +"
he continued, should be retained
by all means, in its proper place
as an emergency measure for total
military and industrial mobiliza-
ton"
Asks Vigorous Program.
He urged that the association
institute a vigorous program dur
ing the next year to prove the
desirability and necessity for some
form of universal military service
legislation in the next Congress,
which will meet and solve the
present and future problems of
the National Guard"
Gen. Walsh told the conference
that the Korean situation had
raised the question as to whether
additional units of the Army and
Air National Guard will be or
dered to active duty. But he
added. nobody seems to know the
answer.
Secretary of the Army Pace is
scheduled to address the confer
ence this afternoon. He will be
followed by Gen. j. Lawton Col
Inns, Chief of Staff of the Army,
and Maj. Gen. Raymond H. Flem-

Denounces Acheson.
Mr.. Vishinsky charged that
Western attacks on Soviet policy
are an attempt to smother"
Soviet peace efforts. He denounced
Secretary of State Acheson for
saying one can deal with the
Soviet Union only by creating a
situation of strength. Total diplo-
macy stresses opposition to good
hearted cooperation" between
the United States and Russia,
he continued.
Mr.. Vishinsky's resolution calls
for the conclusion of Big Five
peace pact and a one-third re-
duction of armaments by the ma
jor powers. 1t is similar to a
resolution defeated by the 1949
Assembly with the addition OF a
new section which would have the
U. N. tag the first country to drop
an atomic bomb as war crimi-
nal"
Declaring that force is the foun-
dation of the foreign policy OF
American officials, Mr.. Vishinsky
said: The army, the navy, the
air force-these are their argu-
ments.'
Defeat of Move Seen.
American sources have charged
that the Soviet resolution is an
attempt to blacklist the only
weapon in which the West has
superiority. while maintaining the
legality of war material which
Russia possesses in great quantity.
They predicted that Mr.. Vishin-
sky's latest move would meet
defeat.
The American sources pointed
out that the United States de-
modified at the end of World
War II while Russia kept her
armed forces up to strength. They
claimed the call for reduction
had little validity coming from
the power which has more troops
than the rest of the world put
together.
The sources pointed out that
the U. N. Charter, whose fifth an
niversary Is being celebrated this
week, is. in effect, a Big Five
peace pact and no new one is
needed.
