Washington March 28 major generals Hershey and Paul told the Senate Military Affairs Committee that without extending the draft act expiring May 15 the United States faces either mass retention of drafted men or severe manpower shortages in the Army and possibly the Navy and Marines. Hershey said the Army needs 50 000 men monthly for a year and would get only 19 000 monthly if the draft ends, while Thomas opposed extension citing rising voluntary enlistments.
