Democrats Lose Draft Bill Issue
Washington June. Southern Democrats failed to amend the draft bill to allow enlisted men to serve in units by race upon request. The Senate rejected the amendment sponsored by Senators Russell and Mayhawk. Republicans pressed a third straight session to push the peacetime selective service measure toward the House, while other civil rights amendments were dismissed. The defeated proposal would have let every service member choose unit race, requiring officers to honor the request if made in writing.
