Committee To Vote Monday On Draft Bill
The House Armed Services Committee finished a draft bill and will vote Monday, authorizing registration for men 18 to 30 and two years service for those 19 to 25, with most veterans exempt. Senate plans differ, merging draft and UMT for 18 to 25 and training teens with draftees. The 70 group Air Force plan faces Senate timing snag as action delays occur.
