Limit Waiver Urged

waive a ceiling keeping the man.

men.
This was first waived by Con-
greSs under the Korean emer-

are now about 4.3 million officers

officials said today that be-
cause it would be impossible to
cut the force by Ia million in the

waived until July 80. 1858.
This would give the Army, Navy
