Military Chiefs Await Order to Begin Draft; Bradley Hails Action By the Aktociated Press The Nation's military leaders were ready today to swing speedily into action building a 2,000.000-man detense loice—when President Tru man orders the draft. Not until 90 days after Mr. Tru man signs the selective service re vival bill can men—19 through 25— be inducted into the armed forces. But the defense chiefs were rush ing plans to set up the training ma chinery for the thousands of peace time draftees. Congress gave them more than $14,000,000,000 to do the job of strengthening the Army, Navy and Air Force. Gen. Bradley. Army chief of staff, (said passage of the draft bill is a hong step "toward preventing for ieign conflict.” He told a news conference in Los Angeles yesterday it will "back our ! leadership in the world and will ! strengthen our foreign policy.” "Anything Might Happen.” As to the chances of an emer gency arising, Gen. Bradley said: "We’re faced with the possibility i anything might happen. No one knows—unless it would be 14 men in the Kremlin.” | Gen. Bradley's forces received the i major share of the defense oillious ' handed out by Congress and will get | the largest number of men through jthe peacetime draft. I On the dollar score, the Army got $6,767,668,163; the Navy, $4,7.49.059. 250. A $3,224,000,000 appropriation to build the Air Force up to 70 groups, also included funds for the I Army and Navy. S Military authorities have esti mated it will take about $1,700,000. 000 to draft and train the future inductees. \ eterans VIay Aid training. Gen. Bradley said some key per sonnel may be brought home from overseas to help in the training pro gram. Reserve and National Guard officers already have been put through special courses to admin ister the peacetime draft. The fanfare which featured the (beginning of the previous drafts will be missing this time. There will be no drawinng of numbers from a goldfish bowl. In j stead of a lottery, the order of in i duction will be decided by age. Tentative plans call for begin ning the draft w-ith 21-year-olds. Under this plan men who turned 21 j on January 1 would be first in line for induction, January 2 next and so on through December 31. Hershev Expected to Resume Role, j Whether all eligibles in the first age group will be called before j drafting is started from another ; group still is to be decided. The Office of Selective Service Records, caretaker of the wartime |draft records and planning agency for the peacetime draft, will be ab sorbed by the new selective service organization. Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, who headed the wartime draft, presumably will head the new agency. Approximately 4.000 local draft boards will be set up. There were 6,442 boards during the wartime dralt. The local boards, like before, will be appointed by the Governors. The Army probably will call be tween 200.000 and 225,000 inductees during the first 12 months. Under the draft bill the Army j would be increased to 837,000 from its present 548.000 strength: the Navy and Marine Corps to 666,882 from 469,000: the Air Force to 502.000 from 382.000. The total strength of the military establish ment is set at 2,005.882.

Hightower Associated Press Staff Writer Representatives of the Western European countries soon will be- j gin military talks with United States defense chiefs. These talks, probably to be held here, will open a new phase in the^ development of American policy; toward Europe. Officials said today the conversa tions, in a sense, would be based on the Senate-approved resolution drafted by Senator Vandenberg. Republican, of Michigan. It put the Senate on record as favoring United States support of regional defense alliances where they serve! this country's security interests. One such regional alliance is the still developing Western European union of Britain, Prance. Belgium,1 the Netherlands and Luxembourg. These nations have laid down plans for broad political, economic j and military co-operation which the American Government hopes will provide the nucleus of a united states of Europe. One agency of that group is a military committee functioning in London.

The prospective talks will give the American high command its first information on the results of those studies. They also will be aimed at establishing a close liaison. It is expected that political talks will follow eventually. The objective will be to associate the United States with the union in some way that would assure the members of Ameri can support in event of armed ag gression. Any such regional aeiense agree ments would have to come within the framework of the United Nations and he approved by Congress. Leaders of the Nation bipartisan foreign policy indicated they were highly pleased with the recent con gressional accomplishments—headed by enactment of the multi-billion dollar European Recovery Program. The State Department was equally cheered by passage of the draft bill.
