Discussing enlargement Of the age
limit for selective military service,
Provost Marshal General Crozier
said: ...z. ts.z55
q pronounced majority of the
board favor some enlargement, but
there is great diversity Of opinion
as to the proper age limit. Nineteen
and SO are perhaps the limits most
frequently suggested; but some re-
limit. There is distinctly stronger
commend 40 or As years as the upper
hint. There is distinctly stronger
demand for raising the maximum
age than for lowering the minimum. .
Gen. Crozier estimates that 1885,
1888 acceptable single men would be
made available by an increase in the
age limit to- include men UP to As
years. The estimate places the num-
Der of acceptable single men be-
tween 18 and 81 years at 1,546,283.
The number of. probably acceptable
single men already registered but
not called is 1,321,S45. According to
these figures, should the age limit
be enlarged to include men Of from
Is years to As years, inclusive, 4,257,
SIG physically and otherwise quail
fled unmarried men would be open
for cal Ito service.
