Eisenhower Favored In Battle Over New Military Reserve Bill
Washington June 25 House leaders expect President Eisenhower to win in the second round of his clash with Rep. Powell over a new military reserve program. The compromise bill expands reserves to 2,900,000 by 1960 and allows teens to avoid draft duty by volunteering for seven years in the reserves under training. Powell seeks antisegregation safeguards, a fight that has split the party and drawn in the Pentagon debate on active reserve staffing versus reduced standing forces.
