A Larger Army For France From Selective Draft
The collapse of Russia and the German invasion of Poland dispel any doubt about the U S necessity to deploy a great army to France. It is now likely that American young men will be called for service until a shortage occurs. An army of 2 000 000 can be raised under the selective draft law without expanding calls to other classes. No further calls are expected before year’s end as winter and spring focus on training and transporting those already drafted. The next force will be at least 2 000 000, possibly adding men who have turned 21 since the law’s passage. Congress will likely pass amendments this session.
