Senate Investigator
Watches Textile Strike
BY The Assoeios.d Pres.

GREENSBORO N. c., April 10
The Senate Labor Management
subcommittee had an investigator
observing" the textile strike at
Dan River Mills, Danville, Va.
today.
But the violence that flared at
the first Of the week, apparently
had passed, at least for the mo-
ment. Pickets were reported quiet
and orderly. r
The picture was generally the
same all along the strike front
that now has extended into a
seventh Southern State.
This was the 10th day Of the
strike that was called after man
agement failed to meet demands
of the CIO- Textile Workers Union
of America for a 13-cents-an-
hour wage increase and other
benefits. About 41.000 workers at
almost $4,000 mills have Joined
the walkout.
States In which mills are struck
are North Carolina, South Caro-
lima. Virginia, Alabama, Georgia.
Louisiana and Tennessee.
The strike spread to Tennessee
yesterday with the walkout Of a
majority of workers at the Hol-
liSton Mills at Kingsport.

Territorial units couldn't take the
field in any strength In much less
than a year, just as with our Ma
|tional Guard. That time-lag Brit
ain can no longer afford. The new
Territorial Army outfits will be
able to move out in, 80 to so days
that is, as quickly as they could
be moved to the continent in any
case. The anti aircraft outfits will
be able to man their guns almost
on an hours notice.
There Are Complications.
This is the general outline of the
scheme. but there are complica-
ltions. ~ ~. -.
It has taken four years to get
the plan to the point where. at
last, tangible results are being OBJ
tanned. The National Service Act
was passed on July 18, 1947. 1t
provided for the first Gallup on
January /, 1949. in order to give
time to establish the complicated
system of registration.
The extension Of the full-time
service period to two years (Which
came last fall. after Korea) has
worked out so that it will not be
until .June$of this year that time-
expired men in any numbers viii
begin passing into Territorial
Army units. It will be another
year before these men will be
present in T. A. units in sufficient
numbers to swell the present skele-
ton establishments to something
like a basis of fighting strength.
Great Care Taken.
The British are going about all
this with great care. When man
is first called up for service, he
is assigned to an arm of the serv-
ice which has a Territorial unit
in or near his home town, so that
if he does his two years regular
service in an infantry battalion,
he won't find himself pushed into
a T. A. artillery outfit where he'd
have to be trained all over again.
Men whose homes aren't comfort
ably near a T. A. drill hall may
be assigned to the supplementary
reserve instead. The r. A. has
been completely reorganized and
readjusted in order to give men
as wide a choice Of arms as, pos
sible-a job, Of infinite complica-
'tions. Like fitting together a jig
saw puzzle of thousands Of pieces" /"

in willy-nil1y. Gen. Herbert
thinks the scheme will work all
right, on the evidence of last sum-
mer (before the extension to two
years., when several thousand con-
scripts did come into the T. A.
and fitted In very satisfactorily.
OF course, the future Of the
T. A. will largely depend on how
many Of these men will re-enlist
after completing their 31a years
OF compulsory T. A. service, and
go on to become senior non-coms
and officers. As to that, only time
will tell.
Britain's Territorials have ira
lditionally worked harder than our
National Guard - which is sup
posed to turn out for two weeks
camp In summer, and for 48 eve
ming drill periods a year. The Brit
lish have their two weeks camp,
too, but man isn't considered a
satisfactory volunteer who doesn't
show up for at least two drills q
week during the rest Of the year.
The national service men are
going to be required to do only 20
drills a year plus summer camp; it
lis hoped that many Of them will be
keen enough. as the British put it,
to do more drills, meeting the pres
ent volunteer standard.
Forces in Germany Increased.
Meanwhile. the extended period
of active service ftwo years. has
added $4,000 men to the regular
army. and has enabled the British
forces in Germany to be raised to
four divisions cd Infantry Divi-
