Gen. Lawton J. Collins told the Adjutants General Association that the Army needs new weapons rather than more divisions. He outlined a revised organized reserve program costing about 110 million dollars in year one and 153 million annually thereafter to reach 9,000 units and 367,172 officers and men, plus 330,000 trained but unorganized personnel.
