Pentagon draft chief Hershey told the House Armed Services Committee a recommendation may come soon to include nonfathers aged 26 to 34 in the draft. He suggested presidential action could expand the pool without new law and backed a program to raise 500,000 more eligible draftees annually by correcting deficiencies. He warned of rising rejection rates and urged drastic steps. Extending eligibility to age 35 could add only 30,000 to 40,000 draftees.
