the American people and the
Government on behalf Of any
armed forces program.
Nevertheless. enlistments into
the program still average only
1000 per MONTH" it continued.
Monthly enlistment rates must
be carbohydrates tripled-to
meet the requirements for ma
tional security"
But despite the dismal show
ing, the commission would not
as yet advocate use Of the draft
to fill the youthful ranks. That
was the course that the Army
demanded without success on
Capitol Hill when the reserve
forces act was under debate early
last year.
Face Facts Squarely
Said the commission:
IF by the end Of this year the
facts justify it. we should funda-
mentally revise the program and
take steps to provide the neces-
sary manpower. All of us must
face the facts squarely and real
istically. We must fish or cut
bait.
At another point the report
said that if voluntary enlist
ments failed to produce the
necessary manpower. I'VE should
have an illusion and not the
substance Of security"
The program permits young
men between the ages Of II and
1872 to enlist directly in the re-
serve and to take six months
basic, advanced and specialist
training at regular installations.
They then must remain in active
reserve units for seven and half
years.
The commission, whose chair
man is David Sarnoff of New
York. was set up solely to keep
a check on the program. This in
cludes their personal safety,
health, welfare and morals.

The report showed the COM
mission had been keeping tab on
the % Army installations and
two Marine Corps training sta
tons to which the Six-month
trainees have been sent.
In the section on the Paris
Island (S.C) Marine base it
stated:
While no six-month reserve
trainees were involved in the
unfortunate drowning of SIX
recruits E, the commission
realizes that it is quite possible,
due to the indignation of trainees
with regular units, such could
have been the case"
The commission found very
few instances of bad behavior or
problems related to morals"
Whether the passes of the
traineeS should be stamped
minor" is left up to individual
commanders, but at most posts
the course is taken. the report
showed.
At Fort Sam Houston, Tex,
there were some complaints from
trainees that they had been

basic and advanced training but
had not received it. mo one
seemed to have any particular
reason for taking the leave-they
just thought it would be nice to
go home for awhile" the COM
mission said.
Morale Is High
Morale among the trainees is
high largely because 80 much
attention has been focused on

eluded that if the six-month goal
