Eisenhower Declares Strength Of Army Found Low In Tour Of Posts WASHINGTON, March 6 W) Gen. Dwight D. Elsenhower said today he found on a three-week tour of army posts that "in ac tual operating organizations the army's strength is very low" as a result of rapid demobilization. The chief of staff told a news conference he wanted to avoid painting too black a picture, but advised: "There is not an efficient ground and airforce existing in the United States today." Eisenhower noted, however, that commanders and staff ofi cers who led American forces to victory in the war. were still on duty and that the United States had a great body of trained men available. The army airforces have been particularly hard hit by. the loss of trained men, Eisenhower said. "Maintenance is a problem the airforces have simply not been able to solve," he commented. Hospitals also have been hard hit' by loss of competent person nel and are handicapped in use of civilians who work on a 40- hour week, he said, as "patients are sick on 168-hours a week." The chief of staff said it was his personal opinion that the draft would have to be extended beyond its scheduled May 15 ex piration date to meet army man power needs, Dut dismissed me problem with the observation that "it is not the 'brass hats' job to raise armies. Eisenhower said maneuvers this summer would be on a smaller scale than in 1940 or 1941 but added that because "things change so fast" in the way of military operations it would be necessary to extend the scope of maneuvers next year.
