When Women Give Ages for Draft--Ho! Ho!

By RUTH MILLETT

THERE IS no longer any secret about the ages of men in the coun-try-—thanks to the Selective Service Act. At first all their friends had a chance to find out was whether or not a man was between the ages 8 of 21 and 36. Then when the Army decided men over 28 weren't quite as young as they probably felt and decided against drafting those over 27— ages were still more exposed. And now: that men from 18 to j 64 may be regisLs tered—everybody Miss Millett will have a fair lv accurate idea

‘jof the ages of the majority of men

in the country. But the men don't seem to mind. You don’t find any of them acting coy when you ask where they stand in regard to the draft. They don’t resent in the least having their ages published *to the world. ® s ” BUT WHEN they start to draft women—it will be a different story. The women who have been lying about their ages for years—or cagily keeping quiet on the subject—aren't going to like being classified according to age. They're not going to like it a little bit. In fact, if the day comes when American women have to register

: [for Government service, Uncle Sam _|may find he has a problem on his

hands. It wouldn't be a bit surprising if thousands of women beyond the age

| limit set by the Government rushed

down to register just to keep from

: | indirectly having their ages exposed.

Think of the job it would be to have to check them all and turn the over-age ones down. If the Government didn't check. and took the women at their word —it would certainly play heck with vital statistics. The number of women “under” 36—or whatever age limit happened to be set by the Government-—-would confound the statisticians.
