KILLIAN, Owner Phr.ne 205 Boyd Avenue WASHINGTON With nearly 1, 000.000 volunteers in uniform, the Army has declared a draft holiday for the rest of 1946. Tile War Department notified Vlaj. (Jen. Lewis It liershey. Selec tive Service Hi rector, that some liO.DOO men who alrcadv had been (idled up for induction the last half of October, and 15,000 men in the November quota, need not report For December there will be no (liiota. but no promises were made i hevond the (irs( of the year. The War Department said the suspen sion did not prejudice its fit; hi to i renew calls it tulure volunteer en- lislinen's fail to maintain ade quate military strength. The 1'ilid.iv was the second Ibis ear: there were no calls in July and August. Congressional Issue This action promised to figure in congressional debate if the War Department should ask a further extension of the Selective Service Act beyond next March 111. its pre sent expiration date. I'oes of the (haft arnued vainly when the issue was up last spring that with the Army in the process of icdiiciiu; from I ,.".i() 000 to 1 -070000 this fiscal sear, volunteers' alone would meet the need for re placements". One argument oil the other side was that the draft law whs necessary to spur enlistments. 'the War Department's action will halt the draft machinery en tirely for the rest of the year: the Navy lias received no men hv in duction since last May. Selective Service officials said the last 194IJ draftees would be inducted Oct. IS. Those under induction orders for that date will be required to report, but tele grams to local boards directed the cancellation of "Presidential Greet ings" for indue: ion on Oct. 16 or later. Volunteer Army The War Depart nienl said in an announcement that its action was based on Secretary Robert I. Pat terson's ".xpressed intention to keep the Army a volunteer one in sofar as po. sible and to induct men I only w hen induction was absolute- . ly required to enable the army to fulfill ; i co'iniiiiments." Accordingly Maj. (Jen. W. S. Paul. War Department Director of Personnel and Administration, no lifit d General liershey that "Sep teinl) enlistments in the regular Army, as well as inductions through Selective Service, have exceeded the expectations of the War De partment," and added: "There is ful l her evidence that the trend of enlistments will con tinue to exceed the numbers which had hitherto been anticipated the last quant r of this calendar year." ?'
