In the case of person who
has served two years active
duty, this would mean three adj
additional years in the Ready
Reserve, and three years in the
Standby Reserve.
However, those persons who
complete their active duty be-
tween August 9, 1855 and July
/, 1857, are eligible for the new
one year plan which was created
by the Reserve Force Act OF
1855.
Under this plan. they could
enlist for one years training
with a Ready Reserve unit
In which case they will have
no further Ready Reserve re-
quiremenf obligation. but
would be transferred to the
Standby Reserve for five years
This plan offers an excellent
opportunity for these young
men TO reduce their remaining
Ready Reserve obligation from
three years TO one year.

geet in on this plan can do so

most useful"
Nevertheless, said Mr.. vom
Baur, it is noteworthy that the
Government today contains a
large number Of devoted, patrio-
tic servants, many of them stay
ing on at a personal sacrifice
beyond the point where they feel
they can afford. because of love
for their work and the ''inspira-
ton and drama which Govern
ment work affords"
There is no segment of society
which requires the talents OF
exceptional men as much as the
Government, he declared.
Wedding Out Process
yet" he said, there we see
that today the brutal fact thai
the effect of the present so-callec
system is actually to discourage
the exceptional man from stay
ing on. And the fact of thi:
weeding out process also serves
as a deterrent to recruitment Of
the exceptional man in the first
place."
/ Association members who ex-
plored the subject of the future
of Government lawyers in the
panel led by Mr.. vom Baur were
