Britain To Continue Draff For Services Continue Draft Os All Men 18 To 30 i i London, Sept. 4—(UP)—Britain I will continue indefinitely to draft T all able-bodied men between 18 and 1 30 for her armed services, : Prime Minister Attlee announced the government’s decision in a radio "fireside chat" to the British people last night. Only key reconstruction workers will be exempt from conscription. He said large numbers of munitions and other former war I workers once considered essential would be called up. Britain’s manpower shortage continues desperate, he saiti, because of need to replace veteran ; troops in the occupation of former axis territory in Europe, Africa and the Pacific and in the garrisoning of her own territories. “The maintenance of adequateforces by seJ, in the air and on the ground is vitally necessary 11 we are to fulfill our obligations to our Allies ami if we'are to see that what has been won in the war is not lost in the immediate postwar period,” he said. Allee said the government's program calls for the demobilization of 45,000 soldiers, sailors ami airmen every week, but admitted this probably would fall far short of the hopes of those awaiting a return to civilian life. Join aplenty were awaiting those demobilization, he said. “In order to restore employment in civilian and export manufacture and in non manufacturing industries and to bring services to the 1939 pre-war level, we require an Increase of about 5,000,000 workers," he said. o Vogler Appointed As State Director Indianapolis, Sept. 4 —(UP) —Appointment of L.
