Press-Republican-Tuesday, October 19,1982
Draft seen out for at least 4 years
By RICHARD C. GROSS
WASHINGTON (TJPI) - A
military manpower study group
said Monday it seas na nmi for a
draft for at least four years and
D e f e n s e S e c r e t a r y Caspar
Weinberger discounted the recession as a key to the success of the,
all-volunteer force.
The biggest incentive to join the
military, Weinberger said, is that
"it's an honor to wear the uniform
again," plus higher pay, riot high
unemployment.
The report by the "Military Manpower Task. Force," presented by
Weinberger to President Reagan,
concluded there will not be a need
for the draft for the foreseeable
future.
~
It said manpower goals in all
branches of the armed forces
generally will be met through fiscal
year 1987.
"There is no requirement for a
draft as a means of bringing in sufficient numbers of qualified junior
enlisted personnel," the report said.
The report was ; not surprising,
since Defense Department officials
have been expressing delight in recent months not only with the
numbers of recruits and reenlistments but also with the higher
educational quality of enlistees.
The Pentagon's total force objective ior fiscal year 1982, thejrear
ended Sept. 30, was 2,108,080. Actual
strength as of June 30 was 2,107,000
men and women.
Some Pentagon officials have suggested double-digit unemployment
and the recession as reasons for the
best recruitment year for the
volunteer force since its inception in
1973.
But Weinberger told a news conference at the White House that the
recession was only one factor contributing to higher recruitment and
retention. He said increased pay for
the military was another and in'
dicated the Pentagon is requesting,
another military pay hike for next
year.
"I don't believe that the recession
is a major factor," he said. "It has
an effect on the numbers coming in,
but it is not the sole factor."
Weinberger said recruitment has
been high even in areas of high
employment.
His assessment appeared to contradict that of the Army's manpower chief, Lt. Gen. Maxwell Thur-
man, who said Oct. 11 that "the
economy (is) running in our favor"
in recruitment.
The report also discounted concerns. toa^^U^^oIunteer concept
will create ~ah all blaciT army.
Although blacks are 12 percent of
the general population, they comprise 19 percent of the military, including 33 percent of the Army and
22 percent of the Marines.
"The task force does not look upon
this as a problem," the report said,
"The fact that many blacks
volunteer is a tribute to their
patriotism. It would be both unnecessary and unfair to move to a
quota-based recruitment system to
. achieve some arbitrary notion of a
proper racial balance."
A factor contributing to the high
percentage of blacks in the military,
the report said,, is "that military
service offers blacks better opportunities for responsible work at
fair compensation than are
available to them in many segments
of the private sector."
The black unemployment rate
reached a record"'20.2 percent in
September, the Labor Department
reported. Total joblessness stood at
10.1 percent nationwide.

By HENRY DAVID ROSSO
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Police
arrested 58 draft protesters in front
of Selective Service System headquarters Monday, carrying many
away on stretchers when they refused to walk to police vans.
. According to police, about 200
demonstrators marched to draft
headquarters as employees arrived;
for work. They were met by'police
who had blocked the street in front
of the building.
The d e m o n s t r a t o r s were
members of. a group called the October 18 Resistance Campaign,
which threatened to close the
building to protest draft registration
requirements for young men
reaching their 18th birthdays.
One group of demonstrators formed a circle and sang softly. "We're
not going to shut it (the Selective
Service) down, we're going to make
it obsolete." A young woman said,
"We're going to prove that love is
stronger than war." Asked how long they intended to
stand in front of the building,
another woman said, "Until our
voices get tired." Another woman
added, "For the rest of our lives."
By mid-morning, only about 100
demonstrators remained on the
grassy hill across the street from
the building. Selective Service
s)K»ltesmaihloftn Lamb said that by
noon, the demonstrators had left.
According to Selective Service
figures, some 500,000 young men
have failed ^register. .
Eleven men. have been indicted
for failing to register, a felony
punishable by a fine of up to $10,000
and five years in prison.
