Army May Be Forced
To Cut May Draft Call
To 5,OOO-6,OOO Men
By John A. Giles

The Army may be forced to
trim it's May draft call to 5000
or 5000 men-the minimum
number necessary to keep the
breath of life into the Selec-
tive Service machinery.
The lowest call since the graft
law was re-enacted in 1850 was
1000 in September. 1851. A total
of 1000 are being drafted this
month and 5000 will be indicted
in April.
The fact that the Army must
cut its overall strength by more
than 100000 by June 80, COM
bined with heavy re-enlistments
in recent months. brings about
consideration of further cuts in
the draft calls
There were 1,298,034 officers
and enlisted PERSONAL in the
Army on February %. The bude-
ct calls for the strength to be
IL million on June 80. While it
will not be necessary for the
Army to reach that exact total
by the end of the fiscal period
it must be fairly close to that
figure
Re-enlistment Rate
Seventy-two per cent of the
regular Army personnel who
were eligible re-enlisted in Sep
TENDER The rate in January is
estimated to have been better
than so per cent. This compares
with only Is per cent last Sep
TENDER. The number of volun-
teers being recruited also is
holding up we'll.
Army officials are greatly en-
couraged by this turn of events.
The armed forces much prefers
to keep well trained men in the
ranks, which impreSSeS overall
efficiency and cuts down training
costs. They also prefer to recruit
volunteers for long-term enlist
ments rather than induct men
for only two years.
More Money
Three factors are believed to
be causing the increase in re-en-
1istmentS and the good recruit
ing rate:
l. The prospect of pay raise.
1t is felt that if Congress passes
the military pay increase, the re-
enlistment rate will continue at
present levels and may even I'M
prove.
2. The larger re-enlistment
bonus which was passed last
year.
3. A new personnel policy
which assures soldiers of more
steady Army careers and less fire.
quent moves from post to post.
Under this system. an individual
may choose his unit, which is
moved to pre-designated areas
with plenty of advance notice.
Soldiers now serve with fewer
separations from family and
home and have permanent jobs
assigned.
In addition to cuts in draft
calls, the Army already has an
nounced accelerated releases
from active duty for draftees in
order to cut down on the overall
total to keep within budget linn
itationS.

Reno's Marrying Judges
Stripped OF Lucrative Fees
By the Associated Press

CARSON CITY. New, Mar. Is,
The Nevada Legislature has
stripped Reno's marrying judges
of their wedding bells and put
them back on the benches wnere
they belong"
The solons simply cut off the
lucrative week end and night
wedding business at the pocket
book by making it illegal for
jurists to accept either fees or
gratuitieS for their services
The judges regularly relieved
each happy bridegroom of a $40
bill-as a gratuity. That totaled
$4,000 to $4,000 a year
The bill approved by the Leg
islature yesterday, forbids &C
ceptance of gratuities, but raised
the salaries of the district Judges
from $1,000 to $4,000 a year
The bill applies to all Nevada
judges. but only those in Reno
ever got much of the marrying
business.

FOLLOWING TOO CLOSELY


Leonard was driving his car
down an arterial street.
Johnson was in a car behind and
travelling in the same direction.
AS the two cars approached Il
signal light, it appeared to be
safe for Leonard to pass through.
But the light turned red as he
was about to go into the intersec-
ton, and he stopped.
Johnson, thinking that Leonard
would zoom on through, had kept
a constant speed, and was unable
to stop his car which crashed into
the rear end of Leonard's auto.
johnson was indignant He wanted
to know why Leonard hadn't gone
through the light. Johnson sued.
Will he recover? The answer is
mo-. Leonard might have gone
through the intersection safely on
Oil dIllOCA 1ASAN, Dul JOtilloOli was
negligent in following too closely.
The law in Washington lays
heavy duty on the driver of a We
hicle following another vehicle.
The law says the driver of fol-
lowing vehicle must keep a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead of
him and maintain such observa-
tons of the vehicle ahead that by
exercising reasonable care an
emergency stop, as may be die
tated by ordinary traffic condi-
tons, may be made safely.
Johnson should have been able
to stop, and not being able to do
so, is barred from recovery by his
negligence.

ROTARY HEARS
C.. C.. MARKER
Tells of Poultry Industry in
Delaware at Meeting Thurs
day Night
ONE OF OLD BUSINESSES

Charles C. Marker, of near
Smyrna, a guest of the Smyrna
Rotary Club on Thursday night,
talked on the poultry industry in
this state, saying that it is one
of the oldest businesses in exist
ance, dating back to the earliest
days of the earth. The business
was not thoroughly organized un-
til the 18th century, the speaker
stated. 1t now comprises 63 per
cent of the total state farm in
come. The poultry industry did
not ask for government support
during the years of the recession,
he continued, and mechanical in
ventions have been introduced in
the raising of chickens to assure
the professor a margin of profit.
It takes two and one-half pounds
of feed to produce one pound of
meat through given period, the
speaker stated, and the poultry
industry has now become scien-
tific business, knowing how to
produce meat at the lowest possi-
BILE cost. Experiments are always
being conducted to improve the
product, he said, as he explained
the diseases of chickens and the
latest drugs used to combat dis
ease. Reynolds Pratt was chair
man of the evening program. Mel
son Everhart directed group sing
ing with Robert Reed as accom-
panist. Howard Pletsch presided
and birthday greetings were ex-
tended to Elmer P. Corrie, chair
man of public relations for the
club. william Richardson, Cam
den-Wyoming, was visiting Ro-
tartan.
