Congress to Decide on Universal Military Training Plan

U M T program hailed as key to future U S security

The eighty second Congress backs a full U M T plan with six months of training for all 18 year olds, seven and a half years in reserves, and potential active duty only with Congress approval. Debate continues on timing and details amid cold war concerns and social implications. The note ends with a social function scene and a geographic oddity about Perry Maine.
