going to be drafted, or when. Manystudents are applying for graduateschool admissions and fellowships as ifthe Selective Service Act didn't exist,because there is not much else they cando. Administrators will have difficultyplanning class sizes, budgets, and fel-lowship programs when they believethat many of their prospective stu-dents-without knowing how many-will never make it to campus. Andthere probably will be some repercus-sions on undergraduate teaching, whenfaculty members cannot get enoughteaching assistants to handle sections inlarge introductory courses.

Even a shift to the pool of 19-year-olds (with selection made either bylottery or by the House committee'ssystem) would not altogether end theconfusion. Because they will be given a"constructive -age," college graduatesand graduate students do not escapeentirely under this system just becausethey are over 19. Substantial numberswill still be inducted. Betty Vetter, headof the privately supported ScientificManpower Commission,* has madesome rough calculations about theeffects of shifting to the pool of 19-year-olds. She figures that, under certain pos-sible circumstances, as many as 60percent of the college graduates wouldprobably be inducted.

It is obvious that, with various as-sumptions about the size of the draft-age pool, the size of the draft call, thenumber of volunteers, and the numberof deferred areas of graduate study, theresult can easily change. The studentmay have very little idea what hischances of being called are, especiallyif the administration's lottery plan failsand the Pentagon decides to resort tothe plan of the House committee. Thepresent law aggravates this problembecause it does not let the student enterschool with a guarantee of completinga full year of study. The old 1-S-Cdeferment, which allowed him to finishthe year, disappeared with the old law.Come September, any student who takeshis chances by entering graduate schoolin the fall could be drafted anytimeduring the year, his time and possiblyhis tuition being lost in the process.Will he want to take that risk, or waita year until his time of maximumvulnerability to the draft has passed?

University administrators are finallybeginning to feel the weight of thesequestions. Two weeks ago, in Boston,*The best summary of the new draft act canbe found in a small pamphlet prepared by theScientific Manpower Commission, 2101 Constitu-tion Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C.; 25 cents.

the Association of Graduate Schools(AGS) passed a resolution asking thatstudents be informed at "natural timesof transition" (the last year of highschool, the last year of college) of theirchances of being drafted. The associa-tion supported a lottery and asked thatgraduate students who have begun adegree program be allowed to finish.The American Association of Uni-

versities, meeting at the same time inChicago, considered the AGS resolu-tion but decided not to adopt it; in-stead, the AAU will send representa-tives to Washington to speak to govern-ment officials. According to AAUspokesmen, the association's representa-tives will only plead for a speedy clarifi-cation of the present situation, not ad-vance a favored plan for changing thedraft. Even this goal, however limited,may be difficult to achieve. If theadministration decides, for example, tosubmit a new lottery plan, it can moveno more quickly than Congress does,and the next session does not openuntil January.

Probably the best the universities cando is hope. Many of the changes theyare supporting have already fared ratherpoorly in Congress. Only an adminis-tration that is convinced of the inherentadvantages of another induction sys-tem-one approaching the military idealof younger induction-will want toassume the political problems of re-opening the draft issue before a hostileHouse. Any cause for change willprobably have to be made on its mili-tary and manpower merits alone. Theuniversities, increasingly identified ascenters of resistance to the war, wouldprobably not be at their most persua-sive before the Armed Services com-mittees.-RoBERT J. SAMUELSON

Tens of thousands of dissertationshave been written.That's not news.

But we can find the one you wantin seconds. That is.

Finding the right dissertation at the righttime is a problem. Compiling a bibliography ofrelevant titles means days-even weeks-ofsearching. It's a formidable, time-wasting prob.lem for researchers and librarians.

Now there's a way that greatly reduces thetime needed to put together a bibliography ofpertinent dissertations. It's a way to quicklyand inexpensively get actual research startedsooner.

It's a service named DATRIX.A computer is the core of DATRIX.Here's what it does:It performs a thorough search of the more

than 126,000 post-1938 dissertations we havein our files (including 95% of those writtenlast year at U.S. and Canadian universities);retrieves, with computer speed, titles of desireddissertations; and prints out the desired bibli-ography. Positive microfilm or bound xero-

graphic copies of the complete dissertationscan be ordered.

DATRIX is another new service of Univer-sity Microfilms, a pioneer in making the librarya more efficient research tool.

Using DATRIX is simple and direct. Withour order form and descriptive words selectedfrom a key-word list supplied, the researcherdefines his specific area of interest.

When this request is transmitted to a com-

puter, a bibliography of relevant titles is printedand mailed to the library or individual so thatthey'll have what they need in working daysinstead of waiting weeks.
