R.C.A.F. squadrons for operations in the Pacific theatre would be on ta voluntary basis. And he didn't ‘expect any trouble in raising the required number of 54111811113051 which he didn't stipulate.

The new announcements followed a trend cf general curtailment that wax first indicated Feb. when Maj. Power disclosed a new Commonwealth air agreement en. visaging provision of an even flolv of trained personnel tooperatlons over a long period While BI; the same time reducing the intake of trainees and closing out training (units behtna‘ graduates.

Since then he has said that B8 ‘schools and 23 relief landing fields ‘will be closed by the end of the .year. He followed up this by re- tcently announcing the amalgama- ttlon of training commands and re. louction in membership cf the all" (council — responsible for the ad. fministration of the plan.

The word on the end of recruit-

ing answered a question‘ left in abeyance since Oct. l. date of the scheduled resumption of recruiting after a slimmer moratorium. , The 4,200 aircrew reserve. wait- ‘ing to start initial training, will lbe given a chance to volunteer for (either the army or navy but those ‘who do not volunteer will be sub. ject to draft regulations.

Reason For Surplus

explained the res. son for the surplus of aircrew trainees. Plans had been made far in advance because men went into action as much as 20 months ‘from the time they started train- ing. - He now has “in the mill)’. ready for reinforcement when training is completed, a potential of about 14.000 aircrew members. These |will be enough to fill commitments |for the German as well as the Japanese usr.

The men released will receive all credits which they have earn-

_ ed, such as the S1.5(‘ a day rate

which army personnel normally receive onlv after six months ser. vice. The release will follow the pattern adopted by Britain and United Slams where large num. hers of potential trainees were made 3"BllilbI” to other services.

Curtailrnent Program

The curtailment program would have no lmaiediate effect in reduc- ing the numbe; of graduates com- ing from lne schools throughout Canada. for tnere were “many thousands" in varying stages of training. The plan would con. to produce trained men un. til “well into" 1945.

The reason for the surplus in air force manpower, he said, tvas the following up of the training plan and "ae lowering of the in. cldence of overseas casualties.

He gave no indication as to when the general demobilization Dian would start out a reasonable speculation seemed to be (ha! this

lwould follow the end of the war

in Europe. This Is based on his remarks that the force that wen! lo the Pacific would go on a volun- tary basis.
