Senate approves conscription plan amid wartime mobilization
The Senate discussed a conscription bill outlined by Senator Minton of Indiana as it advances toward law. The plan envisions registration 15 days after enactment and initial conscripts entering training camps 40 days later, targeting about 400000 yearly increments through 1944. A total of 4000000 trained personnel is projected in five years for active or reserve service. General George C Marshall called that level the minimum for hemispheric defense. The bill also extends profit limits to weapons contracts and preserves conscientious objector provisions with civil service options.
