Army Leaders Say Draft Is
Needed for Post-War Force
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON, May 12.- Con-
gressional advocates of a peacetime
draft said today Army leaders are
convinced the draft is the only way
a post-war military force of 4,500,000
"availables" can be maintained.
While the Army aas insisted that
Fine Arts Show
Of Indian Art
WIl Oen Here
Rajput Brush-Drawing
To Be Central Work
An exhibition of examples of 18th
century Rajput Indian art, spon-
sored by the University Institute of
Fine Arts, will open tomorrow and
continue through May 26 in Rm. B,
Alumni Memorial Hall.
The exhibit is centered around a
brush - drawing, entitled "Krishna
Dancing with the Milkmaids", which
has been loaned to the Institute by
the Brooklyn Museum. Mrs. Ralph
E. Gregg, who received her master's
degree from the University this year,
has used the hands of the dancing
girls in the drawing as models for a
series of 30 studies of various hand
expressions.
The Detroit Institute of Fine Arts
has loaned a second drawing from
the same school entitled "Krishna
Sporting with the Milkmaids".
Another feature of the exhibit is a
tapestry .:zbroidred with dancing
figures, similar, although of a cruder
nature, to those of the brush-draw-
ing. Indian students on campus have
contributed several authentic Hindu
costupnes and pieces of jewelry, which
are being used as background mater-
ial for the drawings.
The exhibition is open to the pub-
lic from 2-5 p.m. EWT (1-4 p.m.
CWT) Monday throgA Friday, and
from 10-12 a.m. EWT (9-11 a.m.
CWT) on Saturday.
Auto Manpower
Available Soon
WMC Believes No New
Cars in Three Months
By The Associated Press
DETROIT, May 12-Edward L.
Cushman, State Director of the Wars
Manpower Commission, said todayi
that manpower for automobile pro-
duction will be available in the De-c
troit area within the next three
months but that he was convinced
car manufacture will not start on
July 1.1
The War Production Board has in-]
dicated it expects to give the car in-
dustry authorization by that date to
go ahead with car production.
At the same time George F. Ad-
des, Secretary-Treasurer of the Unit-
ed Automobile Workers (CIO) as-
serted that a number of factories
that formerly produced automobiles
and parts could be returned to such
production within three months. He
said the assembly lines in those
plants, because of the nature of war
production, need little change, and
added:t
"If the managements are interest-
ed in avoiding chaos and demoraliza-
tion, these changes can be done in a
hurry."
T has no definite plans for the size
f the post-war military establish-
ient, it submitted to the House
nilitary cmmittee this week a writ-
ten statement containing these
words:
"The active reserve will be com-
pcsed of those individuals and un-
its sufficient in types and numbers
which will, together with the other
componerts, constitute an over-all
balanced force in the Army of the
United States of four and one-half
million (4,500,000) men."
'that figure, an Army spokesman
said, is strictly "a planning figure"
and represents the - "availables" who
could be called upon in a future
emergency cr "M-Day"
Reserves, Guardsmen
Under present War Department
plans, committee members said, at
least 4,000,000 of the 4,500,000 would
be reserves and national guardsmen
and, if the entire quota is to be filled,
the reinaining 500,000 presumably
would Pre regular Army personnel.
The War Department issued a
statement last night, however, in
which it said it was "not the fact"
that it plans a peacetime standing
Army of 500,000 men.
"The size of the regular Army,"
it added, "ivhich the War Dpart-
mclt will recommend after the
war will depend upon the condi-
tion of the world, the commitments
of the United States at that time
and the military policy adopted by
the Congress."
Two Alternatives
Committee members represented
Army spokesmen as asserting there
were these two alternatives to the
building up of a huge reserve through
a peacetime draft law: an "inade-
quate" defense establishment, or a
huge standing Army which would
cost billions annually.
Hearings will start June 4 on
peac etime draft legislation broadly
requiring every able-bodied male citi-
zen to take a year of military training
as scon as he becomes 18.

DIE-1IARD NIPS LINGER'
Yanks Huint Japs on Corregidor
Two Months After Invasion
CORREGIDOR, Manila Bay-/P)-
More than two months after this fort-
ress island was invaded by American
paratroopers and amphibious forces,
a visitor still gets an escort. Some
die-hard Japanese soldiers still ling-
er in Corregidor caves.
The escort consists of a truck load
of helmeted, green-clad men of Maj.
Gen. William C. Chase's 38th Divi-
sion with carbines ready for instant
action. Near the point to be visited
they fan out, peering down slopes,
keeping eyes on cliff sides, wary about
thickets.
Only a day before a group of
American war correspondents, tour-
ing Pacific bases, visited Corregi-
dor, soldiers came upon a Japanese
sitting near the shore, holding a
machine gun. The Yanks opened
up but he dived for a cave, pulling
his weapon after him. Grenades
were topped in but the foe, willing
to live a rat's life, probably was
safe within the recesses.
"If they were Germans, they'd know
the jig's up," said General Chase.
"But these dirty little Nips have to be
picked off."
A week before the correspondents
visited Corregidor, a group of sol-
diers, finding a shaft leading from a
cliff top to a big cave, poured oil into
it but before the fuel could be ignited,
Japanese in the cave committed sui-
cide by touching off the biggest explo-
sion yet to rock the island.
Corregidor, its barracks, its facili-
ties and structures such as Gen.
Douglas McArthur's demolished home,
is conquered. There's no mistaking
that.
But the dirty, desolate business of
hunting the enemy night and day
co.nstitutes a capsule picture of what
is happening everywhere that Japa-
nese are to be found.

fluence making for separa-
tion and divorce will be the
hasty and ill-advised mar-
riages after the war. Many
young people will wish to
make up for what they
have missed of marital bliss
because of the war, and will
marry after only a short
acquaintance, courtship,
and engagement. Burgess
said that to insure strong
family relations after the
war it is necessary to have
economic security for fam-
ilies, education and coun-
seling in such problems as
child development, divor-
ces, juvenile delinquency
and knowledge of human
behavior.
THE ENGINEERING,
SCIENCE and Manage-
ment War Training pro-
gram, which has trained
more than 12,000 men and
women since November;
1940, will be discontinued
after July 1, the engineer-
ing college revealed. The
purpose of the program was
to supply additional per-
sonnel in technical fields
and to upgrade skills of
those already in industry.
All courses were given on
non-credit basis with the
armed services were pres-
ented here on campus. l-
though most of the traine'es
at first were men, women
were trained to a great ex-
tent. The University train-
ed 1,500 inspectors for
Army Ordnance and the
Army Air Forces. Survey-
ing, topography mapping,
and photogrammetry for
women college graduates
were offered here to train
them for work with the
Army Map Service. Men
were sent here from Wright
Field, Ohio, for courses
dealing with radar and
radio for the Signal Corps.
ESMWT took over much of
the college level work of
training men in technical
fields that many large cor-
porations had been doing
because the Universities
and college could handle it
more conveniently and ef-
fectively.

(USMC), who wrote a new
page into Michigan sports
record books last year when
he hauled down major let-
ters in four sports, return-
ed to the scene of his ath-
letic triumphs this week
on his way to his home in
during his short one-year
span in a Maize and Blue
uniform, but he also left
his mark as one of the fin-
est sportsmen and compet-
itors in the nation. After
being transferred to the
Michigan campus from the
University of Wisconsin,
Hirsc:i promptly went out
for football and disting-
uished himself on the grid-
iron despite a succession of
injuries, climaxing his pig-
skin career by running off
the bench to kick an extra
point against Wisconsin
without the knowledge of
the coaches.

RAY "RED" LOUTLHEN
breezed through his fourth
win of the season as his
teammates banged out 17
hits off two Notre Dame
hurlers. Coach Ray Fisher's
nine trounced the Irish in
a style that has been char-
acteristic of the Wolverines
all season. Jack Barrett,
Notre Dame slow ball artist,
was the victim of the Mich-
igan base hit barrage in his
second meeting of the sea-
son with Louthen. He was
relieved in the eighth inn-
ing when 14 Wolverines
came to the plate to put
the left fielder's head.
Leading hitter Tom Rose-
ma also came through with
a triple and a single in 5
trips to the plate. It was
the third meeting of the
two teams and the third
time Michigan has come
out on top.
The final score was 12-3.
Michigan scored their 12
runs on 17 hits and com-
mitted 2 errors, while Notre
Dame had 3 runs, 4 hits,
and 2 errors. The second
game of this series was
called off because of rain
and Coach Fisher has an-
nounced that it will not be
played off at some later
time.
MICHIGAN opened its
home outdoor track season
by playing host to Great
Lakes, Illinois, and Ohio
State in a quadrangular
meet. Great Lakes emerg-
ed the victor with a total
of 43% points. Next came
the Wolverines with 41 1/3,
followed by Illinois with
35% and OCU with 31 5/6.

enhart, former Buckeye
