Remember this new time! vLwmfd ■ 10ESS Universal Military Training For Youth-Do You Want It? PEACETIME DRAFT—that hotly debated issue of the day—is to night’s question on America’s Town Meeting. If it becomes law, your young son or brother at 18 or on graduation from high school must spend a year in military training. Those in favor call it the best way to help prevent future wars—the only way to be prepared if another one comes. Those against say it creates a huge military caste, won’t prevent war, will lead to regimentation. A panel of jejght high school students and two adults will discuss both sides ofthis controversial issue tonight. Tune in!
