Debate on Draft by Age Nineteen and Quotas
The piece argues for a 19-year-old draft to speed up and equalize conscription, against Rivers and Hebert who favor the current quota system. It notes 2 million reach draft age yearly, with 600,000 to 1 million needed after Navy and Air Force volunteers, and 100,000 to 300,000 may be drafted. It links deferments to age and college plans, and suggests college deferment could shift the debate to when a man is at his peak.
