Enlistments Are
Extended Again
The enlistments of some 125,
000 persons in the armed forces—
those whose regularterms,are due
to expire in the year beginning
July 1—have been extended for
an additional nine months. The
rule covers all volunteers in the
army, air force, navy and marine
except Selective Service regis
trants who enlisted for twenty
four months instead of awaiting
induction. By services, the affect
ed groups consists of 60.500 in the
army, 25,000 air force, 35.000 navy
and 4.500 marines.
The Defense department said
not all the men will be required
to serve the full period of exten
sion, but that none will be kept
on duty longer than is absolutely
necessary. The extension was or
dered under the terms of an exec
utive order signed by President
Truman. It applies to all compon
ents of the armed forces, includ
ing the reserves and the national
guard, whether the men are on
active duty or not.
Unemidoymcnt Insurance

reserve, as of the year's end, was
$7,800,000,000. That was an in
crease of $191,000,000 in the Sfst
'quarter of the year.
