Each side proposed a demarcation line with the UN favoring the current battle line, mostly in North Korea, while the Reds urged a 15 mile retreat and offered the Ongjin Peninsula. Brig. Gen.

Lawmakers Debate UMT Program Plan in Congress
Lawmakers foresee a heated fight next year over a government commission blueprint for universal military training, arguing it could prepare 1.8 million youths annually at a cost potentially exceeding 4.0 billion dollars in the first year. The plan seeks to extend the draft framework, with training starting on a smaller scale and select youths deferred or exempt based on schooling and performance. The Defense Department estimates initial year costs around 4.19 billion, with subsequent annual costs dropping, while implementation would involve the Selective Service System and rigid deferment rules.
