Draft Study Says Draft to Run to 1970 With Voluntary Push
Pentagon experts estimate it could cost up to 3 to 5 billion dollars over two years to raise pay and incentives enough to recruit an all volunteer force. The study, ordered by President Johnson, will argue the draft must continue at least until 1970 while recommending steps to boost enlistments and tap untapped manpower, including possible civilian substitutions. It notes enlistments have fallen as the draft looms in the background and discusses raising the draft age or lowering eligibility to 18.
