1900 Drop in Draft Calls
Seen in About ; Months
BY the Associated Press

The Defense Department an
ticipates monthly draft calls will
drop 1000 in about three months
if reasonably stable conditions
are achieved in Korea within
that time.
John A. Hannah, Assistant
Secretary for Manpower, dis
closed this prospect recently in
stressing the continuing need for
selective service as long as the
United States keeps more than
3 million men in uniform.
A 1000 drop would mean cut
ting the monthly call from $4,000
to 10000.
However, Mr.. Hannah calcu-
lates that it may be necessary to
raise the monthly draft quota to
around 10000 beginning in July
1854. The reason is that draft
calls were very heavy in the first
18 months of the Korean war,
and large numbers of those men
will be completing their cycle of
duty next year. They will have
to be replaced.
