Draft Board Chief Quits Over Batchelor Sentence
H W Wright resigned as Big Spring draft board chairman stating his conscience objected to drafting youths who could face the severe life in prison given to Cpl Claude Batchelor for collaborating with the Communists as a POW. Batchelor, 22, from Kermit Texas, was sentenced to life with hard labor after aiding the enemy and betraying fellow POWs during 38 months in Korea. Wright, a World War I Navy veteran, had led the board 30 months and said the punishment seemed too severe given Batchelor’s youth. He mailed his resignation to Gen Paul Wakefield, Selective Service director for Texas, Tuesday.
