Draft Father Issue Looms In Washington Debate
Washington observers forecast a major congressional clash over a universal draft for fathers and labor in war industries. War Manpower and Selective Service push to reclassify essential jobs and pull pre Pearl Harbor fathers into service to fill growing trade gaps. Rep May and Rep Wadsworth lead talks on draft father policy amid broader bills, arguing for selective use of manpower in a war likely to rely on sea and air power.
