5000 Air Force Reserves
Extend Active Duty Tours
By The Associated Press

The Air Force said today that
about 5000 enlisted reservists,
called up since Korea. had elected
to extend their duty tours or had
volunteered for further service.
OF the $4,000 men called in
voluntarily from the Reserve, some
$4,000 already have completed
their one-year duty and have
been released. the Air Force
added. About 1000 more airmen
will be returned to their homes
before Christmas.
The Air Force said earlier this
week that it has been able to
discharge these numbers because
of the success of the volunteer
campaign for new recruits.
Several months ago, Air Force
officials said they saw the pos
Sible necessity of taking a share
of the monthly draft quotas to
meet expanding manpoWer re-
ouirements. But the current rate
of volunteering makes this un-
likely in the immediate future,
a spokesman added.

however, including the Atomic

Alien Gains Rehearinq
In Citizenship Effort
On Language Plea

The claim of a visitor from
Uruguay that he did not under
stand English when he signed a
form exempting him from mill
tary service and barring him from
becoming an American citizen to-
day won him a rehearing in his
efforts to become a citizen.
The United States Court Of Ap-
peals directed District Court to
hear the complaint in which the
man seeks a ruling that he is
eligible for citizenship.
The man is Artigas Battle
Roberto Machado. Long Island.
N. Y. District Court recently dis
missed his suit.
Entered as Business Visitor.
The Court Of Appeals said MIR.
Machado entered the United
States in March, 1914, for a period
of one year as a business visitor.
In June, 1914, he registered under
the Selective Service Act. When
notified of his classification of
IA in July. 1914, he signed a
form which relieved him of mill
tary service as a neutral alien.
This action also barred him
from a citizen.
Subsequently. the court pointed
out, Mr.. Machado married, de-
cided he wanted to become a
United States citizen and re-
quested to withdraw his exemp-
tion claim to serve in the United
States Army.
Failed Physical Test.
Permission was refused" said
the Court Of Appeals but later
when Uruguay entered the war,
Mr.. Machado was "reclassiied
Ia, called for induction and re-
Jected because of physical unfit
ness"
The Appellate Court said 1t ap-
peared that all that keeps him
from now becoming eligible to re-
main in the United States is the
fact that he signed the form which
exempted him from military serv-
ice.
The opinion was written by
Judge David L. Bazelon. judges

DawaIbi's S Failure 10 Form
Cabinet in Syria Reported
BY the Assoeioted Press

CAIRO, Nov. 23.-The Arab
News Agency said today that DR..
Maruf Dawalbi. who urges closer
cooperation between the Arab
world and Russia, had failed in
his efforts to form a cabinet in
Syria.
Premier Hassan Ell Hakeem re-
signed two weeks ago because of a
split in his cabinet over the West
ern proposals that Arab states
join a Middle East defense COM
mand. Premier Hakeem favored
Arab cooperation with the West.
DR.. Dawalbi is a member of the
Populist Party, which has a plur-
ality but not a majority in the
Chamber of Deputies. His in
ability to form a cabinet did not
stem from his foreign policy but
from dissatisfaction over failure
of Populists to carry out promises
to loosen the Army's political con-
troll over the Government, the
news agency dispatch from
Damascus said.

While not disparaging previous in

tiers made by other congressional

points out that these studies were
made on limited funds and there
fore comprehensive study of the

ture never was accomplished.

gram and the resultant bump
ings" that occur down the line.

zation. supervisory selection, an
nual and sick leave, pay scales,

ures, appeals system and various
other phases of Government per-
sonnel activities.
In giving the unit a total of
$195,000 the Senae extended its
life to next March 81. And the
Senate hinted that if the investi-
eating group at that time filed an
impressive report and recon-
mendations for modernizing per-
sonnel practices in Government,
then additional funds might be
voted the group to extend its in
Ivestigation.
Some members Of the Senate
Civil Service Committee feel that
| it would be a good idea to main
tain a permanent investigating
unit that could keep a current
icheck on personnel practices and
correct any inequities that are
found.

Agreement Reached
On Ending Occupation
Of West GERMANY
BY the Associated Press

PARIS, Nov. %. - Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer goes home to-
day to tell West Germany the
way is open for her to become
Junior partner with her Western
conquerors-but only if she fur
nishes troops for a European
army.
Mr.. Adenauer and the Big Three
Foreign Ministers agreed here
yesterday on the main principles
of contract to end the occupa-
tion of West Germany and give
Adenauer's government more free
dom. But the agreement falls
short of the full independence the
Germans want.
The agreement-drafted largely
during negotiations at Bonn-was
approved by Adenauer, United
States Secretary of State Dean
Acheson. Britain's Foreign Sec
retary Anthony Eden and French
Foreign Minister Robert Schuman.
Details Kept Secret.
Details were kept secret, because
five supplementary agreements
must first be drafted before West
Germany gets her new status.
Among them is one covering Ger
many's contribution to the pro-
posed army which will serve un-I
der Gen. Eisenhower's Atlantic
command.
One part of yesterdays agree
ment provided that "the occupa-
ton statute with its powers of
intervention in the domestic af-I
fairs of the German government
will be revoked"
The three Foreign Ministers now
go to a Rome session of the North
Atlantic Council to deal with the
defense problems that made the
German agreement necessary.
Anti-Cartel Plan Pending.
The Germans say they can
furnish IL divisions of troops by
the end of next year.
Another of the five agreements
still to be drafted is to cover the
trust busting anti-cartel program
long pressed by American occupa-
tior authorities and resisted by
many influential Germans.
The Western Allies also will
maintain their rights to: /
Station troops in Germany at
German expense and look after
theAr security.

and Germany's eventual borders.
