OPPOSE EXTENSION

The House military affairs com
Imittee, failing 10 reach a Sched-
luled agreement yesterday, was
called back into session today.
The Republican members of the
committee served notice they
would refuse TO yield on their
compromise measure. II would
prohibit service of drafees beyond
one year, but would authorize
keeping the reserviSts anG national
guardSmen in service during the
emergency.
The Senate non-interVention
bloc hopes 10 write into the bill a
prohibition against the use OF
Idraftees, guardsmen and reServistS
Ioutside the Western Hemisphere,
despite the fact that such pro-
vision already is part OF the
Selective Service Act.
Administration leaders countercd
with the assertion that the draft
extension bill does not disturb the
Western Hemisphere ban
The non-intervention bloc rallied
behind a substitute bill proposed
by Senator Robert A. Taft (R) OF
Ohio, which would extend the ser
vice of draftees, guardSmen and
lreservists to l6 months. 1t also
would provide that approximately
$4,000 soldiers coming under the
three classifications would be dis
charged monthly. beginning next
February.
The non interVentioniStS aban-
ldoned a proposal TO pay enlisted
men 500 a month, and thereby
eliminate the necessity of the
draft. through increased voluntary
.enliStmentS.
Instead, they lined up behind
an amendment by Senator Sheri-
dan Downey CD of California,
which carries a similar principle
providing that the pay of all selec-
tees, guardsmen and reserviSts
who have served a year, be in
creased from $50 to $50 per month.
The additional $50 would be pay
able monthly after completion of
service for a rehabilitation fund.
