SOUTHWEST TOM SALES While the President was'e working abroad for peace, some of us in the Congress had the same goal as we discussed military man-Bower needs. In the louse Armed Services Personnel Subcommittee, we discussed in detail problems arising as our all-volunteer military force say all branches of service fell below quotas months, National Reserve 500,000 sonnel. military for example, our tary planners say within 30 days would be Guard and units for men to replace combat casualties. If they did that, we would have very limited manpower here at home to train military inductees. mili-that they tapping Reserve ions by re-establishing the Selective Service System, with local boards classifying registrants so that their physical amd mental status is determined. One or both of these stages could be completed with minimal effect on the young people most concerned and at minimal cost. report on future pro gress. KAZEN IN WASHINGTON it recent our over enlistment in while Guard and are short in per-We need a force adequate to deter any other nation’s aggression, so we must not only have active duty forces in strength, but other trained personnel who would be needed immediately if war should come. We cannot know how much time we’d have to prepare for war; certainly, it would be shorter than we have had in the past.

In a dramatic substitute for gunboat the President went abroad, worked long hours on difficult problems, and in the closing hours of his travels, he apparently achieved his goal. men invited to the White House to meet with the President in the last hour before he left on his mission, and then to attend a briefing session with him the day after he returned. He was obviously tired, but happiness at his achievement overshadowed his fatigue. of their strengths. I feel very sure that President Carter recognized their difficulty in yielding on any point, yet ne persuaded them that the cause of peace had to be served first.

I have sat in meetings with both President Sadat and Prime Minister Begin, heard them state their fiositions, and gained irst-hand observations A new Egypt-Israeli war could envelop the Middle East, disrupt an already reduced oil supply, and perhaps even lead to a Great Power confrontation. I do not welcome the increases in aid that our nation may have to make, but I accept them as an alternative to conflict that could have a much more drastic and profound effect on us. of of the Rentals.
