President Conant and General Eisenhower met during Christmas vacation to discuss the Universal Military Service plan advocated by Conant and the Committee on the Present Danger.

Conant, with two other members of the Committee, talked with Eisenhower for several hours, and after the meeting Eisenhower's press secretary said they discussed military and civilian manpower problems and matters of mutual security.

With Conant as chairman, the Committee on the Present Danger was organized to alert the nation to the dangers of foreign and domestic communism. It also has endorsed President Conant's military service plan.

No 4-F's

Under Conant's proposal, the army would draft all men at 18, or when they complete high school, with deferments for no one. Men normally assigned to 4-F category would be taken into the military for the two year period to do clerical or other non-combat work.

Two other members of the Present Danger group accompanied Conant. They were William J. Donovan, director of the wartime Office of Strategic Services, and Tracy S. Vorhees, a New York lawyer.

With Eisenhower were the following members of his administration John Foster Dulles and Herbert Brownell, Secretary of State and Attorney General designates respectively, Harold Stassen, Chief of the Mutual Security Agency, and Roger M. Kyes, deputy Secretary of Defense.
