FOR FOUR YEARS
House Decides to Continue
Draft Past June 30 Limit
WASHINGTON (AP)-The
House voted 394-4 Tuesday to
continue the draft four years
beyond June 30. It is currently
taking about 11,000 young men
each month.
The legislation, asked by Presi
dent Eisenhower, now goes to the
Senate. The same international
pressures that helped to sweep it
to passage in the House will be
pushing it there, but the Senate
is expected to take more than
the one day of debate the House
held.
Muscovites Seem
Calm After Change
MOSCOW,* AP — Tuesday's
change in premiers caused no
public excitement in Moscow.
Moscovites questioned at
random appeared bored at the
news.
“What difference does it
make?” one asked.
Another said: “It’s all the
same thing.”
Uncertainties of the Formosan
situation and the designs of Rus
sia were in the background as
the House debated.
Chairman .Vinson (D-Ga) of
the Armed Services Committee,
successfully resisting a move to
limit the draft extension to two
years, told the House:
“Close to Shooting”
"We’re about as close to shoot
ing as has ever happened in the
histbry of this government. In
1951, we had trouble in Korea.
In 1955, we have trouble in the
Formosan Straits.”
In brief, the bill would con
tinue until the middle of 1959 the
government’s authority to draft
young men from 18% to 26 years
of age for two years of active
duty, followed by six years in
the reserves.
18-Year-Old Draft
The measure continues present
law under which all 18-year-olds
must register, becoming subject
to induction six months later.
Deferments for essential indus
trial and farm workers and some
students are permitted, but
they are subject to the draft un
til the age of 35.
House Approved
The House approved these two
amendments by the Armed Serv
ices Committee:
1. Youths joinnig the National
Guard under 18 Vs and serving
until the age of 26 cannot be
drafted in peacetime.
2. Men with six months' duty
in the uniformed services or 24
months in the Public Health
Service since Sept. 16, 1940, also
would be exempt from the draft
except in event of war.
Reserve Training
Meanwhile, a House armed
services subcommittee took up
another manpower bill. Backed
by the administration, it woul<§
seek to insure that reservists
keep up their training after com
pleting their active duty. An
other feature would permit 100,
000 or so youths to volunteer
each year for six months active
service, to be followed by 9 Vi
years of reserve training.
