Senator Explains Draft in Detail

WASHINGTON, Mar. 26 (UP) —Chairman Chan Gurney (R. 8. D.) of the Senate Armed Services Committee expects the administration’s Selective Service plan to call for:

ONE: Drafting non-veterans in

at least two years of service. TWO: Married men and those with dependents would be deferred along with medical, scientific and theological students’ and conscientious objectors. THREE: Veterans with more than 90 days of service would be exempt, but if the supply of other eligibles were exhausted, those with less than one year of service, all within the United States, might be called. FOUR: Men would be registered in three different age groups at different times, with the youngest group first, followed by those 30 to 38 and finally those from 38 to 45. : The Armed Services have estimated that they would need to draft only 220,000 men during the next year from an estimated 3.6 million non-veterans in the 19-through-25 age group. * Army officials indicated that mental and. physical standards ‘would not be lowered in the intermote men into uni-

PREDICTION PROVED—Last year residents in the 4600 and 4700 Hillside Ave. said trees would fall and break sidewalks under heavy rains and high winds.
