The "necessary and proper" clause, also known as the Elastic Clause, allows Congress to make laws that are necessary for carrying out its enumerated powers. Among the examples provided, the power to institute a draft is an example of a power that has been deemed "necessary and proper," as it is related to the power to raise and support armies.

So, the correct answer is: the power to institute a draft.
