Mansfield Urges 1 Percent Hike In Military Pay
Senator Mike Mansfield proposed a 25 percent boost in military pay to attract and retain a three million man professional force. He argued this would obviate universal military training and reduce training costs for nonprofessional servicemen, with a 95 percent pay rise for enlisted personnel plus fringe benefits to draw careers in the armed forces. He noted the administration seeks to extend the draft and push a universal training plan, and said he may offer a rider to the manpower bill if his plan fails.
