Compulsory Training Will
Hit All Types Businesses
Eight months' service period for the
government for every able-bodied man
in the country between the ages of 18
and 45 years of age Is In the offing, if
. a bill introduced in congress last week
passes—and it is generally presumed
that the measure will pass within a few
I weeks.
The legislation providing ror univer
sal compulsory military training has
for its purpose the "mobilization of the
nation’s strength by fitting "every able
bodied man into his proper place under
a fair system of selective compulsory
military training and service.”
Not only may the "bosses” key execu
tives, and skilled employes be called
upon for an eight-month service period
but they also may be called up for mili
tary training for one month out of each
year for an additional 10-year period.
The bill provides for registration of
all men between the ages of 18 and 65
with certain exemptions. Those be
tween the ages of 18 and 45 would be
liable for eight months military train
ing and for national service.
Careful selection of men from those
registered is provided for with due re
gard to the needs of industry and agri
culture, the status of persons dependent
upon a registrant and other factors.
There is further provision that not
more than 87 per cent nor less than 78
per cent of the men selected shall be
between the ages of 21 and 31, not more
than 16 per cent nor less than 10 per
cent shall be between the- ages of 81
and 38, and not more than seven per
cent nor less than three per cent shall
be between the ages of 38 and 45.
How thw compulsory military train
ing of men provided in the Burke bill
w'ill be squared with the earlier an
nounced program of training 2,000.000
young men and women in the non-com
batant functions having a military value
has not yet been indicated.
The working out of the universal
service plan has been placed under the
direction of Sidney Hillman, president
of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers’
union. The latter plan with its em
phasis on youth and existing govern
ment agencies would not draw nearly
as heavily on the business personnel
of the country as would the Burke bill.
