Short Would Block
UNIT Legislation
Al Next Session
BY III. A.seeie,ed Pres.

Chairman Short Of the House
Armed Services Committee said
yesterday he would fight any
move to establish Universal Mil
itary Training during the next
congressional session.
He made this statement in
commenting on an American
Legion resolution calling for
establishment of UNIT program
alongside selective service. The
Legion adopted the resolution at
it's st. Louis convention.
Even with all our wealth."
Mr.. Short said, UNIT and selec-
tive service together mean a lux
ury we can't afford"
President Eisenhower has or
dered a review of UNIT to deter
mine whether it is feasible now.
Plans to Bar Action.
But Mr.. Short, a consistent
opponent of universal training,
said. "If I can sit tight enough
the House will get no UNIT legis-
lation during the next session.
He added that UNIT legislation
would have to be blasted out of
his committee.
Representative Van Zandt, Re-
publican, of Pennsylvania, a
member Of Mr.. Shorts commit
tee, has expressed belief that
Gen. Eisenhower intends to ex-
plore UNIT as a possible means
of cutting down the cost Of main
tanning a large standing army.
Mr.. Van Zandt said it costs
about $4,000 a year to keep a
soldier on active duty as against
only a few hundred dollars a
year for a reservist.
Predicts Cut In Funds.
Several Congressman, includ-
ing Mr.. Short, have predicted
that the present $34 billion mill
tary budget will have to be cut
more next year if Government
expenditures and income are to
be balanced.
Mr.. Short said he agreed fully
with the Legion's stand for strong
defenses. but he contended UNIT
would weaken, not strengthen
our defenses."
I'm this day of A-bombs and
H-bombS," he added, large
armies are a thing of the past.
We depend upon skilled techni-
clans, properly paid and given
the right incentives. =.
"We need enough forces to
hold off an enemy until we can
mobilize. But the men we trained
now under UNIT would have to
be taught all over again in five
years to keep abreast of devel-
opments."

Accuracy of Kinsey Report
Questioned by Expert Here

he felt marriage counselors nor
mally got a more accurate pic
ture Of sexual practices because
the people involved came for
help and were not sought out
to answer questions.
Mr.. Everett said he did not
think the report had scientific
validity, that it was not repre-
sentative of American females as
a whole and was not worth
what it cost.
He commented:
Many think DR.. Kinsey a
psychiatrist, doctor, anthropolo-
gist or SociologiSt. He is none
of these. His primary profession
is zoolgy.
'It is but logical to surmise
that. to the zoologist, the more
casual reproductive processes
and practices of the plant and
animal worlds seem safe and
sane patterns for human guild
ance.
But, to a large group of
scientists in other fields as well
as to most doctors. clergymen
and parents, the monogamic
family is still the basic social
unit and as such well worth
preserving"
PrOmiScuity Dangerous.
Mr.. Everett said he had the
opinion that sexual anarchy
can endanger National security
and progress" He defined sexual
anarchy as promiscuity and a
deviation from the conventional
social customs.
"If you are interested SO worth
in learning about the sexual
lives Of an essentially selective
group Of women (for that's all
that can logically be secured via
solicited interviews). well, it's
your money" he said.
But, don't expect any con-
siderable amount OF valid Sclen-
tif1c content. because the fun
damental methodology is un-
scientific. Both the female with
a Cleopatra complex and the
disgruntled sexual wallflower in
dulging in wishful thinking will
exaggerate the numbers and ex-
tent of their sexual adventures. "
Mr.. Everett also disagreed with
DR.. Kinsey's views that the sex
laws of the Nation are out
moded, and added:
ANY conscientious socioloigist
would agree with the present sex
laws. They have been developed
over a long period"

255 Donate Blood

Quoted by the Red Cross Wash

Defying temperatures that at
times reached 108 degrees. 255

ing the bloodmobile's first visit
there. Electric fans sent by buSi-
nessmen and residents to the

ton more comfortable.
During the same period, the

lected only 285 pints of blood
in contrast to the normal $50

Douglas Questions
Postal Rate Raises
As Publisher Payoff'

Senator Douglas, Democrat, Of
Illinois. yesterday asked whether
the administration request for
higher potsal rates was a "payoff
for the publishers.
He urged Congress to "put on
the heat" if the administration
persists in this type Of rate in
crease along with continuing
huge subsidies to the wealthy
and failure to increase postal
efficiency"
The rate boost requested by
Postmaster General Summerfeld
failed to get through the House
Post Office Committee before
congressional adjournment last
month. The plan to obtain an
additional $24O million a year
for the department has been
listed by Committee Chairman
Rees as the First order of busi-
ness IN january.
Says Biggest Backed COP.
"Is the administrations postal
rate plan a payoff for the pub
Iishers?" Senator Douglas asked
in a statement yesterday. ut
is a fact that the 10 top maga-
zine publishers in the country
account for over three-fourths
of the total volume of second
class mail. It is also a fact that
10 of these publishers supported
the Republicans in 1852. The
previous Democratic administra-
ton has sought to cut their
subsidies drastically in order to
protect the taxpayer.
II doubt that the new pro-
posals are a Republican quid pro
quo. But nevertheless it is strik-
ing how the political philosophy
of the publishers comedies with
their continuing to receive hun
dreds of millions in mailing
subsidies"
The Illinois Senator attacked
the rate increase plan as a de-
vice to saddle subsidies for the
wealthy onto the backs of the
average citizen" He asserted
that the Republican administra-
ton resorted to the plan after
backing down" on promises to
improve service and efficiency.
Calls Letter Raise Tax.
Increasing the letter rate
from three to four cents would
impose a postal tax on every
person who sends personal let
ters through the mail, he
charged. This type of mail
already more than supports it
self.
Personal letters would con-
tribute an extra $3.50 million, 40
per cent of the total increase
proposed. Parcel post would pay
an added $160 million. or Al per
cent. But the recipients Of the
huge mailing subsidies, news
papers and magazines (second
class maiD and direct mail ad-
vertising (third class) would re-
spectively pay only 5 and IA
per cent of the contemplated
irnreaSe.
'T have worked since coming
to the Senate to cut down the
roe+ol deficit which now amounts
r. some three quarters of a bill
ion dollars a year. This deficit
mast be pared by increasing
efficiency and drastically reduc-
ing subsidies.
Strangely enough, the Re-
publicans who have opposed sub
sides to those in need-the poor.
the sick and the slum dweller-
apparently think that subsidies
to the wealthy and powerful are
quite justified. The big maga-
zine publishers. mail advertisers
and the air lines reap hundredS
of millions in mail subsidies paid
for by the taxpayer"
