4 Senators Demand
Universal Military
Training Be Passed
—
WASHINGTON, (/P)—Nine Sen-1
ators who form more than a ma
jority of the armed services com
mittee demanded yesterday that
Congress stay in session until it
approves universal military train
ing legislation.
The Senators said one by one in
brief statements that the safety;
of the nation can be secured only
if young men are trained in massj
to bear arms.
Their statements came as secre
tary of defense Johnson told the
committee that Western Europe
lacks sufficient military strength
to slow down an aggressor until j
American help arrives. I
He said the United States does
not now have enough trained men 1
to “meet the threat of total war
within the time limits which pres-j
> ent conditions impose.”
Gen. Omar N. Bradley, chair
man of the joint chiefs of staff,
also testified that universal mili
tary training “is the only satisfac
tory long range answer” to the,
need for a reservoir of trained.
men to meet the “many years of
tension in international affairs” j
he said that probably lies ahead
after the Korean situation is set
tled. #
Senate Approves
Control Power
For Truman

WASHINGTON, (TP) — Over
whelming Senate approval of a;
home front mobilization bill vir- ^
tuallv assured President Truman j
yesterday the power to invoke j
wage-price-rationing controls and >
otherwise gear the nation to a
wartime footing.
The Senate passed the emer-!
gency measure Monday night by
a whopping 85to 3 vote. It did so
after writing in some restrictions |
on the President’s authority which
►' administration forces battled
against in vain.
The Senate bill and an econo

House approved on Aug. 10 are
vastly different in some essential
details, but both authorize Mr.!
Truman to impose wage-price

curbs and other inflation controls.
So the bill which finally goes
to the White House—after a Sen
ate-House conference committee
irons out differences between the
two versions—certainly will carry
wage-price-rationing authority.
Overriding vigorous administra
tion opposition, the Senate*" voted
50 to 38 to require the President
to invoke wage and price controls
simultaneously and virt u a 11 y
across the board if he imposed
them at all. The amendment was
sponsored by Republican Senators
Bricker (Ohio) and Wherry (Neb.)
That directive killed a section
of the administration bill which
would have let Mr. Truman'put
v. age and price controls into ef
fect on a selective basis if he
cared to, in advance of any over
all program.
The House bill permits selec
tive controls.
