Exact Figures Are Secret.
The system, including the vast
network OF local boards, now has
only about 1000 paid personnel,
Between 5000 and 10000 paid
workers would be "a good target, -
the general said. In addition,
many of the boards occupy
cramped quarters and Al per cent
have not been open for more than
eight hours a week.
Gen. Hershey told reporters he
had no idea about size and timing
OF future draft calls. He used the
300. 0.0O0-recruit figure only to dis
cuss the length of time he would
need to produce such a number.
Defense officials said their 20. 900
call was issued to meet manpower
ceiling figures approved by Presi-
dent Truman last week. The ex-
act figures are secret.
AS was expected, the 200, 900
men asked will all be routed to
the Army.
Air Force Outlines Procedure.
The Air Force, seeking to fill
its needs with volunteers and Re-
serves and former Air Force men.
said it will follow this procedure.
l. Officers who hold critical
military occupational specialties
may request recall into active
service for one year, taking the
rank they held before leaving
service. +
2. Qualified enlisted men in the
active Reserve may also request
recall for one year. taking the
grade they now hold in the Re-
serves.
Discussing registration of men
between the ages Of 10 and 26.
Gen. Hershey warned that the
l 1855 900 men listed in Glass la
throughout the country does not
mean that number is available for
duty.
HERSHEY Has mo Illusions"
I have no Illusions" he said.
During the last war I found we
always had to have six or eight
people in la to deliver one man. {"
Inc men have not yet taken
physical examinations set up by
the armed forces. Others in la
Will have to be reclassified because
OF change in status or because
they have reached the age of 26.
Draft officials, explaining that
only a little more than 1900 600

Fec Tackles Question
OF Color TeIevision
Behind Closed Doors
BY the Assoeioied Press

The Communications Commis-
sion went behind closed doors to-
day to start wrestling with the
question of whether color tele-
vision is ready and, if so. whose
system is best.
Involved in the decision. ex.
pected before the end of the sum-
mer, are many millions in patent
royalties.
These will go either exclusively
or in combination to Radio Cor
poration of America, Columbia
Broadcasting System, or Color
Television, Inc, of San Francisco,
who alone have announced COM
pleted systems.
AS FEC began it's deliberations
on the basis of more than nine
months of public hearings, it had
the benefit of an official report
by a Senate advisory committee
on color television which asserted
that color is here and that color
broadcasting is practical in the
channels now assigned to black
and-white operations.
Condor Directed Survey.
The advisory committee recon-
mended that the commission pick
only one of the competing COM
panies for commercial licensing
But 1t didn't say which one.
The Senate's independent study
group was created last July by the
Senate Committee on Interstate
Commerce. headed by Senator
johnson, Democrat. of Colorado.
DR.. Edward U. Condor. director of
the National Bureau of Standards,
directed the survey.
The scientists who took part
said in their report they had con-
cerned themselves solely with
technical aspects of the color
question, without reference to cost
or other economic factors.
They asserted, however, that
"the net long-term good to the
public is greatest in that system
which can be expected to reach
the highest pitch of performance
during the next few years."
CHS System Lauded.
They then expressed the view
that the CHS system, praised for
high color fidelity, is about at
peak performance now; that CTI
has greater possibilities of future
improvement, but cannot reason
ably be expected to overcome GER
tain inherent limitations; and
that RCA can be expected to i'm
prove substantially"
The committee said that CHS
color quality is superior to it's ri
vals, but that RCA makes the
most effective use of the channel
space available.

| COLUMBIA. S. c., July IL
More than 35o,o00 South Carolin-
ians are expected to vote today in
a Democratic primary featured by
a bitter Senate contest and a four
cornered Governors race.
Skies were cloudy and occa-
sional showers we're forecast.
There were early spurts of activity
as the polls opened. but this could
not be taken as an indication of
how heavy the vote will be. In
Columbia long lines formed at
several polling places before they
opened.
The fact that James F. Byrnes,
71-year -old former Secretary OF
State, is one of the four guberna-
torial candidates has attracted
more than usual national interest
to the voting.
Name Calling Contest.
Olin D. Johnston, the incum-
bent, and Gov. j. Storm Thur
mond are the principals in the
battle for the Senate seat. They
have waged a bitter name-calling
campaign for the last six weeks,
during which both sharply criti-
cized President Truman.
Polls in all 1,572 precincts
opened at 8 am. and will close at
6 pm. In South Carolina the
Democratic nomination is regard
ed as equivalent to election.

Truman S Approval
|0f0verseas Airline
Sale Expected Soon

Reports that President Truman
has approved the sale of American
Overseas Airlines to Pan American
World Airways probably will be
confirmed in a few days.
The President is said to have
overruled a 2-to-3 decision of the
Civil Aeronautics Board when he
upheld a sale opposed also by a
third big carrier in the North
Atlantic, Trans World Airlines.
An authoritative source, the
Associated Press reported, said
the President based his approval
on the condition that TWA be
permitted to compete with Pan
American to London and Frank
furt. and Pan American be al
lowed to serve Paris and Rome.
The bitterly-fought case may
have hastened the resignation of
CAB Chairman Joseph O'Connell,
jr., although he had planned for
some months to return to private
life.
TWA battled the sale on grounds
that it was step toward mo-
nopoly by Pan American TWA, in
addition to its domestic service,
operates some 10000 miles through
Europe and the Middle East to
India.
American Overseas is a subsid-
iary of American Airlines, one of
the big Four" in domestic oper-
ations. It's routes go to Scandi-
navia and Scotland by way of Ice
land, and to Shannon and London
in direct competition with Pan
American. One route extends to
the Middle East.
The sale as proposed more than
two years ago was to have been a
stock transfer, but later was
changed to a $15,450,000 cash
agreement.

Flood dangers eased in North

from the Kaw and Blue Rivers
spilled out over much lowland.

OF the flood area. Rain also was

RoiI Union Leaders Meet
To Decide on Strike

CHICAGO, July II (A).-Leaders
of three railroad brotherhoods re-
sumed discussions today on the
feasibility of calling a strike OF
about 250,000 members against
the Nations carriers.
The unions, not satisfied with
recommendations Of a presiden-
tial fact-finding board in a wage
dispute. are legally free under the
Railroad Labor Act to strike any
time after July Is.
General chairman of the three
unions involved met all day yes
terday behind closed doors in a
Loop hotel. A union spokesman
said announcement Of what action
was planned would not be made
until tonight or probably later.
There were indications the ses-
sions may continue through to-
morrow.
The chairmen, a union spokes-
man said, are discussing whether
to call the strike against all or
some OF the carriers. Another
subject. he said, is the date of the
Walkout, If one is called.
Unions involved are the Order
Iof Railway Conductors, the
Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men, and the Railroad Yard
masters of America. They are
considering strike action to en-
force a demand for a 40-hour
week with 48 hours pay. The
presidential board recommended a
40-hour week and a pay raise of
18 cents an hour.
