Washington reports a sharp cut in November and December draft calls to avoid holiday disruption of training. Army plans call for 39 000 inductees in November and 19 000 in December, down from 45 000 and 89 000 in September and October. Authorities expect homesickness and furlough costs to drive the reduction, with December’s quota to be inducted in the first two weeks. The move trims overall strength from 1 582 000 as 146 000 planned for Oct–Dec will fall short of about 200 000 released by December 10, with new quotas to start in January.
