30 000 Pennsylvanians projected for peacetime draft
Col Henry M. Gross, head of Pennsylvania Selective Service records, predicted about 30 000 youths in the state will be drafted in the first year after the peacetime draft becomes operative. He said most inductees will be ages 19 to 20, with few 21 to 25, as veterans are less available. The measure awaits Truman’s signature and could begin in 90 days if voluntary enlistments fail. He noted the USSR has been preparing for months to ready its system and could act on short notice.
