Deputy Attorney General Tells
Need of Keeping 'America Safe/
By Rl'THE REAGAN
The need to keep America safe
and to give her the power to up
hold what she symbolizes must
supersede all other consideration,
according to Rex Kimmel, deputy
attorney general for Oregon, who
discussed the affirmative side of
universal military training in his
speech, “Training or American
Security and Citizenship,” Tuesday
evening.
“National Security is a contin
uous process" Kimmel told his aud
ience, “and our reservoir of
trained men is fast eaking away.”
He stressed the need for a sel
ective service act, which would
provide military and educational
training for boys between the ages
of 18 and 21.
“There are five measures which
guarantee national security,” Kim
mel stressed. “We need in contin
uous operation a highly efficient
intelligence service to predict
world situations, a modern and up
to date scientific research depart
ment, industrial mobilization and
unified armed force, and the un
iversal military training pro
gram.
“We must be willing to fight a
war if we would have peace,”
Kimmel added, “and therefore it
is necessary to have a highly
trained body of men to work on
air, land, and sea. These men must
be ready to act instantly, to han
dle choatic situations, and fire
fighting, and be able to combat
sabotage and radio activities.”
Measure 4278, which is pending
before Congress, will help increase
life expectancy, combat juvenile
delinquency, and further educa
tion .according to Kimmel. Fin
ancially the annual cost of such
a program would be slightly less
than three days of World War II.
Drawing his examples from Am
erica's past history, he said that
the cost of the first world war
was increased because of our lack
of military preparedness. If the

United States had been stronger,
World War II might have been
prevented; as it was, America's
military weakness contributed to
prolonging the war. Kimmel men
tioned that the selective service
act of 1940; which was passed by
only one vote, was responsible for
saving a great number of lives.
After asking rhetorically, “Have
the hopes of the world been ser
ved by the last war and the UN?”
Kimmel pointed out that peace
exists nowhere on the globe, but
is shadowed by outright war, im
pending war, ascension, or invo
lution.
“Weakness on our part, weakens
the UN,” he added. “Let’s wage
peace; we must be stronger than
the totalitarian nations, because
they do not want peace. The world
stands on the threshhold of the
most dangerous period in history,
and America again faces the res
ponsibility of bringing peace into
the world.”
Kimmel pointed out that in the
event of a third world war, Am
erica would lose, and her enemy
would lose because victory in an
atomic age is impossible. “Like
fire, war can be prevented, but

“American youth are entitled to
