Doctors
Dentists
Thousands of Older
to
By CLARKE BEACH
WASHINGTON MP) Thousands of older doctors and dentists who
until recently thought Selective Service was something only younger
practioners had to worry about are . headed lor 24 months' military
duty. ' : ' .
The supply of younger, draft-eligible doctors and dentists is giv
ing out. The Armed Forces will begin to take older dentists, late this
year, older doctors early in the
spring. . .... v . V
The situation is almost as dis
turbing to the Armed Forces as
it is. to many established medical
and dental men with heavy fam
ily responsibilities. In accordance
with usual policy, the doctors and
-dentists who have been in practice
for a long- time wiU be given the
ranks of major, lieutenant com
mander, lieutenant colonel or com
mander. ;
"Tooj Many Majors
"We'll have all chiefs and no
Indians, said f one Army medieal
officer. The Army will have four
cr five times as many majors and
lieutenant colonels in the Medical
Corps as its table of organization
calls for.
Another Army objection to hav
ing too many older medical offi
cers is that for combat duty in
Korea a preponderance of young
doctors is desirable. They are gen
erally better able to stand the rig
ors of the field. .
All these factors now are being
considered by top level planners
and civilian advisers in the De
fense Department and the Selec
tive Service system. They hope to
agree oh recommendations to Con
fess for revision of the doctor
draft law. As the present law will
expire next June, a new one will
have to be enacted anyway."
Up to Ate of 50
When the Korean War erupted
and the doctor draft bill was pass
ed, all doctors and dentists young
er thanv50 had to register for Se
lective Service. , i
The law, however, provided that
the first call go to the 19,377 men
who got their medical and dental
education partly or wholly at gov
ernment expense during the war
and had served in the Armed
Forces less than 21 months.
Some of these men served less
than 90 days on active duty and
;were claced in Priority I in the
post-KOrea draft. Those who serv
ed longer than that but less than
21 months were placed in Priority
II. Men in these two priorities
have been filling draft calls up to
now. ;
Actually only about 17 have had
to be inducted. The rest, facing
Induction, applied for commissions.'
Now Prioritv I and II men are
almost used up. Many in -Priority
III have already j been examined
and classified. I :
Prior to World War II
In Priority. Ill are those who got
no part of their education at gov
ernment expense; and, who have
never been in military service.
They consist chiefly of men who
started to practice before World
War II. I r
a small proportion are . young
post-war graduates, but most men
graduating now are veterans, and
all-veterans are tin Priority- IV.
The law provides, that all other
eligible men bej drafted before
veterans. .-. j -The
Defense Department ' est!
mates only about 500 post - war
Fnority ill physicians will be
found available ;f or duty after
screening for physical ' disqualifi
cations and various reasons for de
ferment; and somewhat fewer
younger dentists. . - ;
As there are" 47,360 doctors and
dentists in Priority III, it is ob
vious why under' present law the
draft calls will be going to the
older men for a long tune to come,
The Armed' Forces need an aver
age of 5,000 doctors and 3,200 den
tists each. year as replacements.
On , active duty . now are 13,360
physicians and 6,303 dentists.'
