Drafting 18 year olds gains support and hesitations
In a heated debate on drafting younger men, officials weigh taking 18-year-olds after older men. Senator Johnson argues public concern over 18-year drafts warrants first exhausting older sources, while Maj. Gen. Adler of the Times backs 18-year-old conscription as necessary and fairer to families and careers. About 30,000 mid-year college graduates may receive 80-day deferments, with limited job prospects in essential sectors. In Baltimore, two workers were rescued after fumes incapacitated them in a water main project, with three others escaping.

Older Single Men Face Draft
A suggested draft would pull 26 and 27-year-old single men into the armed services while World War II veterans would not be drafted. Congressional leaders discuss extending the draft age and length, with options including 18-year-olds and a universal service plan. Anna Rosenberg outlined a three-group call-up plan, stressing no veteran call-up for now, and Vinson pressed for a 4,000,000-man force.
