WASHINGTON, Feb. 14 ((U.P)>— The Senate Armed Service committee voted unanimously today to draft 18-year-olds for 26 months service but stipulated that no draftees—regardless of age—could be sent overseas without four months basic training.
As sent to the Senate, the bill provides for the induction of older 18-year-olds first. Men younger than 18^ could be deferred by enlisting in the National Guard, providing state governors say they are needed to maintain Guard strength. All 48 governors have so ruled. Defer College Men It also provides for the deferment of 75,000 college men a year during the first three years of the program. They still would have to take four months of basic training before going to school and complete their terms of service after graduation.
The measure gives military officials authority to enlist 25,000 aliens a year for five years. At the end of their terms of service the aliens would be eligible for citizenship. The armed services now have authority to enlist only 2500 aliens annually.
Reserve Duty
Even if Congress approved the bill, it probobly will be months before any 18-year-olds are called to (Continued on Page 4.)
