Senate panel backs three year peacetime draft extension
The Senate armed services committee recommended a three year extension of the peacetime draft act, preserving the president's power to order inductions of ages 18 to 26 if needed. The Russell amendment would require racial segregation in any drafted units if requested in writing. The House bill differs, proposing a two year extension and congressional control over inductions, with a national emergency as trigger. The Chamber of Commerce urged three year extension to speed manpower mobilization in emergencies.
