Gen. Hershey, Randall Debate UMT Tonight

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Major General Lewis B. Hershey will have his hands full at 8:30 tonight at the Law School Forum, where he will oppose Erwin Randall, of the American Friends Service Committee, on the topic, "UMT in America's Future." Isadore Muchnick '28 will mederate. The forum will be held in the New Lecture Hall.

In this, the third of the current spring series of forums, Randall, who has denounced the Pentagon's UMT policy as "trickery," will continue his personal battle with Hershey from where he left off in the columns of several metropolitan dailies.

Randall is expected to take the position that UMT will not be a positive innovation in the national scene, and will neither reduce military expenditures nor strengthen the present system of Selective Service.

Hershey will defend these charges, and the inevitable accusation that UMT means military control of the country during peacetime.
