‘Consider everyone'— Sec. Brown
New draft might include wome
United Press International
WASHINGTON — In a move
that may anger some feminists but
cheer others. Defense Secretary
Harold Brown wants women as well
as men signed up if the decision is
made again to register young people
for the military draft.
Brown made that point to the
House Armed Services Committee
Monday, making him the first ad
ministration official to take a posi
tion on the touchy issue.
“In that sort of emergency, he
said, referring to the kind of crisis

he now sees as the only circum
stance requiring involuntary induc
tion, “yDu ought to consider
everyone.”
Discussion of resuming the draft
has become more frequent because
of problems in the all-volunteer mil
itary system adopted in 1973. With
today’s emphasis on women’s rights,
the discussion inevitably has in
cluded whether women should for
the first time be drafted as well as
men.
Some feminists say yes, others
*
Brown said his judgment on
whether registered women should
actually be called up for service
“would have to wait a further exam
ination of what assignment policies
would be, and if the principal re
quirements were for combat
forces.”
Right now, he feels most combat
jobs are not appropriate for women.
Brown made clear he does not
feel draft calls are needed to man
the military now. He said the ad
ministration hopes to decide later
this year whether registration is
again needed to speed up the
mothballed draft system’s crisis
reaction time, and added, “We may
not need to go that far.”
That put him at odds with Gen.
David Jones, the Joint Chiefs of
Staff chairman, who said he defi
nitely wants to bring back registra
tion but would go slowly on actual
inductions because “there were
tremendous inequities in earlier
drafts.”
Jones refused to support Rep.
G. V. “Sonny” Montgomery, D-
Miss., who would like to draft
100,000 to 200,000 young men into
the depleted Army reserves.

The Memorial Student Center
Camera Committee, which lost pho
tography equipment valued at more
than $2,000 in a recent burglary, is
taking action to prevent future
thefts.
The committee’s photography
studio and one of its two color dark
rooms were ransacked during the
Christmas break. Committee
Chairman Cynthia Odom said the
theft has forced the committee to set
new hours on the darkrooms.

“but now they will be closed at mid
night and opened at seven in the
morning.”
During that time, the MSC alarm
system will be in operation on the
main door leading to the studio and
darkrooms, Odom said. She added
that the main door will also be pad
locked when the darkrooms are not
in use and that the rooms will be
closed during all holidays.
Karen Zantow, faculty adviser of
the group, said that all door locks
will also be refitted for new keys.
In the past, the committee has re
lied on those members using the
darkrooms to report any damaged or
missing equipment, but committee
officers are now planning to run
daily inventory checks on all the
darkrooms.
“Until now, we have not felt the
need to go in there and check every
thing ourselves,” Zantow said.
Currently, committee members
