such a training program.
Each State would be given q
quota but how the youths will
be selected has not been finally
decided. After basic training
they will go either into reserve
outfits or the National Guard.
The Guard is State-controlled
in peacetime and several States
do not accept Negro guardsmen
In those States, under present
planning, Negro trainees would
be placed In reserve outfits after
the six-month period.
The estimated cost for the
six-month training of 100000
men annually is $3.50 million. The
total cost for the new reserve
program is estimated at $1.2 bill
lion.
Pentagon officials are setting
out to persuade Congress and
the public that the new reserve
program, including the training
of 100000 young men is not a
universal military training pro-
gram"-to which both the law
makers and the public have been
cool.
Carter Burgess, Assistant De-
fense Secretary for Manpower,
emphasizes that the new pro-
gram is presented as a four-year
project in contrast with the un-
specified duration Of UNIT pro-
posals and is designed to meet
an existing situation.

Defense Department and Army
officials are in disagreement on
how to train 100000 youngsters
annually under the adminiStra-
tion'S new reserve program.
The youths would be required
to serve 912 years in the reserves
or National Guard after receiv-
ing six months basic training.
Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway,
Army Chief of Staff, favors sep
arate camps for training the
youths. He forwarded proposal
that three camps be reopened to
take care of the training load
and has argued that the Army
can't absorb such a training pro-
gram in its regular organization.
But a top Pentagon official said
today the Defense Department
did not favor opening new camps
at least at the start of the pro-
gram. should Congress approve it.
The department wants the
youths trained along with
draftees and inductees at reg
ular camps. Such a program,
officials say, would be less ex-
pensive and cut down on travel
for the six-month trainees. The
youngsters would not be quar-
tered in the same barracks, how
ever.

listed men would be required for
