Britain Moves to End Draft and Cut Army Size
Britain announced a major defense revision aiming to abolish conscription by 1880 and shrink armed forces to 375,000 within five years. The plan, described as the biggest shift in military policy in normal times, saves about 30 million dollars in the final quarter and reduces defense costs by 785 million for 1957-58. It also pauses further development of certain bombers and missiles, signaling a shift from guided missiles to other approaches.
