Show THE SALT LAKE TIMES Page FRIDAY, JANUARY 15, 1965 Moss Will Seek Investigation of Reserve Programs Senator Frank E. Moss Thursday said he will urge the Senate Committee on Armed Services to conduct a full investigation of both Army and Air Force Reserve Programs. Secretary McNamaras latest announcement of the inactivation of all Air Force Reserve Recovery Squadrons, including those at Provo and Salt Lake City, appears to be part of a move to eliminate all units of the Air Force Reserve, Moss said. In this case, there is no provision for transfer of the units to the Air National Guard, as was proposed for Army Reserve Units to the National Guard, he said. I recognize that changes in military requirements are sure to occur, and that we must respond to them with reorganizations; but this apears to mean almost total elimination of the reserve forces concept, which should not be carried out without full examination by Con(D-Uta- Dieters Urged to Lose No More Than a Pound or Two a Week h) Whatever may be the quantity that a man eats, it is plain that if he is too fat, he has eaten more than he should have done.

The Presidents State of the Union message should be re- garden by all fair minded Americans as the most comprehensive recognition of existing legislative needs to help the people that has been proposed for a long time past. If this message had been so well expressed by. Sen. Bennetts own party leaderthere is no question that said Bennett would have praised it to the sky. A message that so keenly recognizes the existing deficiencies and inequalities in education, economic welfare, opportunity, establishing of health centers to fight disease and seeks to raise the standard of people everywhere as the President proposes, is an effort to be commended and praised regardless of how quickly or perfectly we may attain the goal aimed at. Having the discernment and inspiration to see our needs and then state them so clearly and courageously and with determination to reach and solve them, should. be considered as one of the very highest Presidential qualifications, and should receive unqualified support from every source.
