WASHINGTON. — The war de
partment announced that its re
placement training program for
ground, air and service forces had
been cut from 17 to 13 weeks in
an effort to speed up the discharge
of veterans overseas.
Under the revised plan basic
training will be completed in six
weeks, and will be followed by 42
days of advanced instruction.
The announcement came as con- ; — —- ■- ■
gressional leaders, concerned over; iMirnTirruriiTr
the current muddle in the army’s IrnAI Al/Vtll MjlMLNIj
discharge prpgram, announced plans
to have Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, :
chief of staff, tell members of both !
houses just what is the service’s de- 1
mobilization system.
The army instituted its 17-week
replacement training schedule after
the fall of Japan. It provided nine
weeks of basic and eight of advanced
instruction.
Those now undergoing training,
the war department said, will have
their schedule curtailed progres
sively as soon as is feasible.
Unde’ - the new program, it is
anticipated that trainees will com
plete their 13 weeks’ instruction be
fore going overseas. Under the pre
vious program, approximately 10.-
000 went abroad with only their basic
training behind them.
Decision to call Eisenhower be
fore both houses was made known
by Chairman Edwin C. Johnson
(Dem., Colo.) of the senate military
affairs subcommittee on demobili
zation.
He said that he and Rep. Andrew
J. May (Dem., Ky.) of the house
military affairs committee, were in
virtual agreement that congress
should be given a chance to hear
the war department’s story of its
separation program.
That chance will come, Johnson
said, when Eisenhower will be asked

Gadget Is Invented for
Automatic Baby Feeding
LOS ANGELES, CALIF. - A. D.
Bloom, 21, former marine sergeant,
got tired of climbing out of bed to
feed the baby, so he invented what
he calls the “baby feeder-ette.”
The gadget is made of aluminum,
and weighs 10 ounces. A bottle is
suspended from the top of the
frame, free moving and unweighted.
The device can be placed in any
conventional crib, buggy or bassi
nette and will not tip, collapse, or
rust, says Bloom.
“I’m working on an automatic
burper as an accessory to this con
traption,” Bloom said in explaining
the invention. “I’m a gadgeteer at
heart, an inventor of simple, prac
tical gadgets.”
Manufacturers See Few
Tires Until Fall of ’46
NEW YORK. — Motorists who
need replacements for threadbare
tires may have to wait until fall.
This prediction was voiced here
by the Rubber Manufacturers’ as
sociation.
j Stating that production is 35 per
' cent behind capacity, the associ
ation declared it will be “a long
time” before the tire supply equals
demand.
One reason for the glum outlook,
the report noted, was labor short

The responsibility of Informing
the farmers of this county of the
provisions of the Federal Cotton
Crop Insurance Program has been
placed with the County A. C. A.
Committee.
Mr. Scaly states that the com
mittee believes that the best plan
to tnake the details of the crop
insurance program available is by
personal explanation, and to do
this work agents have bebn ap
pointed for each district in Taylor
county.
Mr. Sealy states that each agent
has visited most of the farmers in
iris community, but due to the
March 25 closing date for filing
applicatons for Federal Crop In
surance, any farmers who have
been missed by the agent are
asked to get in touch withi their
agent or the AAA Office in time
for them to file an application be
fore the closing date of March 25.
The choice of insuring each
•farmer’s cotton crop rests with the
farmer himself. The Committee
does hope that every cotton farm
er will understand the details of
the program before he decides for
or against insuring his cotton. The
list of crop insurance agents for the
county authorized to accept appli-
oateions for cotton crop insurance
are as follows:
