Proposals to change draft age in Senate debate
Two Republican senators Fall and France proposed altering the draft age to 18 to 40 during Army bill debate. Fall seeks a military training reservoir enabling 21-year-old service, while France would enroll and classify all 18 to 40 for any war work and military needs. General Crowder supports easier administration and notes no draft-disruption risk, Congress will weigh age limits and wartime labor impact.

The largest single day group of selective draft soldiers left New York for mobilization since entering World War I. 4030 men departed in three sections, with 2453 to Camp Upton and 1577 on trains to Spartanburg. District boards in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens organized the mobilization with parades and speeches, while police plans shifted to reserve duty as draft depletes ranks.
