'Standby' Draft Extension
Agreed to by Administration
Washington, Jan 26 IU.B The administration agreed Wednes
day to accept a compromise, "standby" draft extension if Presi
dent Truman is authorized to order inductions In the event of
an emergency.
Defense Secretary Louis Johnson said President Truman and
the Joint chiefs of staff approved
the compromise, although tney
still prefer an outright extension
for three years of the draft law
which expires June 24.
Johnson made the administra
tion's views known in a letter to
the house armed services com
mittee, which is conducting
hearings on the administration's
request to keep the law alive.
The standby draft extension
was proposed last week by Com
mittee Chairman Carl Vinson,
(D., Ga.)
Vinson proposed that registra
tion and classification of young
men be continued but that actual
inductions be barred until con
gress gives the word.
Johnson told the committee:
"It is the unanimous view of
the joint chiefs of staff, in which
the president has authorized me
to express his concurrence, that
it would be acceptable to in
clude (in the proposed draft
extension) a proviso that no in
ductions shall take place until
such time as the congress by
concurrent resolution shall so
authorize, or until such time as
the president, after consultation
with the national security coun
cil, shall make a finding that
international conditions warrant
the resumptions of inductions."
Vinson has said congress must
retain the sole right to order in
duction. He has said there Is
not a chance that congress will
approve a draft extension on
any other basis.
Gen. Omar N. Bradley, chair
man of the joint chief of staff,
told the committee that failure
to extend the draft would weak
en the U.S. position In the cold
war with Russia.
Secretary of State Dean Ache
son, who also appeared before
the committee, endorsed Brad
ley's views. He said extension
of the draft is essential if the
United States is to accomplish
its foreign policy objective
maintenance of world peace.
