Aug. 9 (U.R) War Department records show today that in the three months s nee V-E Day the Army had ais- charged under the point system only 40,000 more men than It had drafted. Meanwhile, the overall army size has dropped 190,000 during the same period because of losses from all causes. Including the nnlnt system, which have not been replaced. It was also disclosed that 750 000 of the 3,500,000 Americans in Europe had been returned to this country for discharge or re deployment. Since Germany quit, the army has drafted 210,000 men, or 70V 000 per month. To offset this about 250,000 have been given point discharges, while another 150,000 have been separated from the army because of age, casualty status or other reasons Slow on Releases Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson has promised that 1,- 500,000 men would be released from service by June 1 of next year under the point system. He also warned that the rate of dis charge would be slow until re deployment to the Pacific was well in hand. These facts, studied in con junction with the present record, indicate clearly that there will be only a slight reduction in the army's two-war strength of more than 8,000 men until after tne first of next year. One of the most boiling and complex Washington controver sies of the war has grown out of the War Departments man power policies. Stimson's figure of 7,000,000 men to fight the battle of Japan has been constantly attacked as "unnecessarily high" and "man power hoarding." Also, practi cally every bloc In the capital has brought pressure on him to release skilled men without re gard for arduous service for use In private industry.
