Washington, Sept. 7—Represent
ative Wadsworth, Republican, New
York co-author of the original Se
lective Service Act, introduced leg
islation today to lower the draft age
to 18 years, two years below the
existing minimum.'
The measure would permit any
youths drafted during the last half
of a school year tob e deferred until
the end of the academic year.
It would not alter the present
maximum draft age of 45 years.
Wadsworth's bill was erferred to
the Military Committee, Chairman
May, Democrat, Kentucky, said
hearings would have to be held to
determine whether it was needed
and reiterated his opposition to
drafting men under 20 “unless I am
convinced that the nation actually
needs them.”
“For several months past,' Wads
Worth said in a statement, “the re
duction of the age range has been
inevitable. The sooner it is done the
better. History teaches us that
these young men will make most
effective soldiers when given
thorough trailing and the Army
will be the better for their being
in it.
Moreover, their_ inclusion in the
draft will operate to lessen con
siderably the domestic and eco
nomic dislocations incident to
drafting large numbers of married
men.”
Government soruces have esti
mated there are between 2,500,000
and 3,250,000 youths 18 and 19
years old.
