Military Must Draw
On 1S-Year-0ds,
Legion Head Says

The military services must draw
heavily on the 18-year-old age
group to give the Nation the
finest available fighting stock" !"
National Commander Erie Cooke.
jr., of the American Legion be-
lieves.
Mr.. Cooke, addressing a Ma
tional Press Club luncheon yes
terday, predicted the Armed Forces
will reach 5 million by next year
and will level off at z million by
1854, providing Russia does not
attack.
1.-THE buildup in manpower
should be limited only by the
ability of the armed services to
absorb new recruits" the 29-year-
old World War II veteran de-
clared. I'VE cannot gamble again
on time to train while we fight"
ITO Become Habit of Life"
Bearing arms. he said. "is going
to become as much a habit of
American life as studying in school
and paying taxes" Military serv-
ice, he added, is IAN opportunity
for the individual to increase his
recipe for national survival" In
yesterdays last edition the plan
enormously was printed as
timely
Mr.. Cooke criticized Senator
Tafts advocacy of large sea and
air forces with a relatively small
army as IAN old chestnut" that
was pretty well buried by World
War H."
Il am sure that million ground
troops who helped bring victory
to America in that war do not
consider they were either unnec-
essary or unessential." Mr.. Cooke
said. And I am equally certain
that our ground forces in Korea
feel they are doing an important
job
Gives Stand on Issues.
The Legion chief who was once
a prisoner of war and won the
Distinguished Service Cross IN
Europe, also made these points to
newsmen:
Former President Herbert Hoov-
er's plan for defense of the West
ern Hemisphere is IAN untimely
recipe for national survival"
United States approval OF the
proposed United Nations cease
fire plan in Korea is lone more
link in a chain of misadventure
In the Far East" on the part OF
the State Department.
Regardless of the outcome in
Korea, the United States should
blockade the China coast, give all
possible aid to the Chinese Ma
tionalists in Formosa and to guer-
rillas within China.

Informed Americans appreciate
that Great Britain, with her Com

exemptions.
