Need For Universal
Training Told

The necessity for universal mi
litary training in the Unit e d
States was discussed by Parham
H. Williams in a speech before
the Lexington Rotary Cub, Tues
day. He was presented by 30
Melvin, January program chair
man.
Mr.. Williams said this country
is now engaged in a war for
survival with "the most ruthless
envy the world has ever
known"
There will be three and one
half million men in the armed
forces of the United Staets by
June, he said. If this country had
engag e d in universal military
training as advocated by tn
American Legion for the past sc
years it would be. a great deal
easier to raise such a military
force-and it could be done much
more economically.
The speaker pointed out that
we are starting virtually from
scratch planning to spend seven
ty billion dollars on rearmanen'
this year alone. If we had en-
gagged in universal military train
ing in conjunction with oul
schools much Of the equipment
that was strapped or wasted at
the close of World War II could

fit to our country.
Mr.. Williams said he thought

" should let their congressman
hear from them in regard to COM
pulsory military training in or

der that a permanent plan may
be evolved whereby our young
men receive the necessary train

defense of their country and ours.

Agricultural Aid to Israel
BY DAVID NUssBAUM

(Jewish Telegraphic Agency Correspondent
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1951-01-26

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y
Israel will shortly receive its
first technical assistance from the
United Nations. It has signed an
agreement with the Food and
Agriculture Organization for the
sending to the Jewish state of two
agricultural experts, who will
spend one year in semi-arid Israel
helping in the analysis of proper
land use to get the most from the
rugged Middle Eastern soil.
Israel was born with the silver
spoon of expertness in its mouth.
Specialists of every kind swarm
ed into the new land and went to

work on its problems. But it was
not only a new land but new
kind of land, land of collective
enterprise in agriculture. Hence,
on both counts, although the
country is still very much an
underveloped one, it has built up
a rich experience already in at
lacking the profound problems of
aridity and semi-aridity.
This experience Israel has more
than once offered to put at the
service of the United Nations for
the benefit of others. In signing
the agreement with FAC, chief
Israel UN delegate Abba Eban
reiterated 1srael's anxiety to
share what he called ''the know
ledge and experience gathered in
the course Of our memorable per-
iod of constructive pioneering"
