Marshall Warns Of
Hazards Risked In
Deferring Fathers
Senators Considering
Compromise Providing
For Re-Classification
Washington, Sept. 20—(AP)
—General George C. Marshall
warned Congress today against
"dimming the power'* of great
Allied offensives >\v forbidding
the drafting of fathers.
"We arc 011 .iic- offensive now."
tin- chict of staff said. •"It would bo
unfortunate to do any'liing th;it
would dim the power of thut of
fensive.
"We have, undoubtedly, very
heavy fighting in front oi lis."
Testifying before the Senate and
House Military Committees on the
Wheeler bill to postpone induction
of prc-Pearl Harbor fathers ur.'il
January 1, Marshall apologized "for
expressing myself rather vigorously."
Tlic general said that whether
army quotas could he met with
out drafting fathers heretofore
deferred was a (iiiestion "fur the
manpower people." hut he to'd
Senator -Austin (It.. VI.) that
failure to obtain the quota "prob
ably would force us to emascu
late some of our units."
Even a postponement of such a
draft by thrc0 months, the chief ol
stafl saitl, would seriously interfere
With the Army's program.
The chief of staff said that 7r>.
000 additional inductees were needed
monthly to keep the armed forces
at par and to bring the army to the
goal of 7.700.0(10 by the end of the
Cilini; losses ill personnel
through sickness ami other
causes. Marshall saiil llicrc is no
way of estimating battle casual
ties accurately. '
"We don't yet know tlie cas
ualties of Salerno," he said. "We
have heen busy fighting—tabu
lating can come a little later."
''If it comes t<> emotion.*, wo in
the War Department don't have tin*
right In emotion," Marshal testified.
"We have sonic 700.0(H) fathers in
ttio Army now. What happens to
them?"
The Rcnei'il reiterated previous
assertions that "men over 3ft aru n !
burden."
Meanwhile, a possible compromise >
by which the drafting of fathers I
might be delayed 30 days while se- I
leetive service reexamines physical
and occupational deferments was re
ported under consideration today l>v
