Johnson weighs draft law options for Congress in weekend briefing
President Johnson considers sending a special message on the draft as a Clark Panel report endorses the law but calls for crackdowns on dodgers and draft card burners. A separate advisory panel may favor limited lottery use while noting fairness limits and possible universal conscription. The decision comes as the National Advisory Commission releases eight months of Selected Service study findings. The court of appeals reverses the American Communist party conviction for failing to register, citing Fifth Amendment protections and voiding a $230,000 fine.
