Dads May Skip Army Duty Indefinitely
Washington reports suggest fathers may see draft postponements extend into October or indefinitely. An unofficial Capitol source cites three reasons including fewer 18 year olds, prior quotas near full, and a shift to aerial warfare reducing overall demand. Casualty trends and replacement needs could further loosen drafting after year’s start.

Oil Pipeline Completion Nears Opening Aug 1
Washington June 18 An unnammed source says the eastward extension of the 24 inch pipeline will open around Aug 1, easing Midwest restrictions while not harming eastern civilian use. The line moves 250,000 barrels daily from Texas to Norris City Illinois, with half shipped east by rail, and total capacity rising to 300,000. A second Texas to Norris City 20 inch line will add 165,000 barrels daily, and an eastward extension to 235,000 later. Military demand soaks up excess, with air force activity in Britain and the Mediterranean consuming large outputs. Gasoline stocks nationwide near critical levels except the west coast. The source declined to forecast Midwest restrictions.
