If you only want to process certain elements then select those with 
xsl:apply-templates e.g.
   <xsl:apply-templates
  select="FORMS/FORM[@MAJOR='True']/FIELDS/*[not(starts-with(name(), 
'SCMCOMMENTS'))]"/>
Things get more complicated if you want to process the other FORM 
elements as well as then you have to make sure you can distinguish the 
different elements.
There are (at least) two ways to solve that, one is using modes e.g. you use

   <xsl:apply-templates
  select="FORMS/FORM[@MAJOR='True']/FIELDS/*[not(starts-with(name(), 
'SCMCOMMENTS'))]" mode="mode1"/>

and then write matching templates for that mode e.g.
    <xsl:template match="FIELDS/*[not(starts-with(name(), 
'SCMCOMMENTS'))]" mode="mode1">

then you use a second mode for the other elements.

Or you need to write templates that distinguish the elements based on 
the match pattern.
