Area TO Triple
Draft Notices
For BuiIdup

District draft officials today
mapped plans to virtually
triple" the number of draft
examination notices mailed
here.
Selective Service officials in
Maryland and Virginia an
nounced that similar efforts to
increase the number of draft
eligibleS were underway.
John F. Hillyard, the District
Selective Service System chief.
said all activities Of the local
draft office will be stepped
up" to keep pace with the Ma
tion-wide drive for a buildup
of available draftees.
Orders to States
Federal Selective Service Of
ficials yesterday disclosed that
orders aimed at bringing the
Nations pool of draft eligibles
to 100000 men - double the
present total-were dispatched
to State draft directors early
this week.
Although there has been no
increase in previously announc-
ed draft quotas-the number Of
men actually called up for
the States, the directive was
linked to a possible increase in
the national draft quota in
September.
Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, the
Nations Selective Service chief,
said the planned goal of 100,-
900 draft eligibles would re-
store the drsftee pool to its
1867 Level.
Here in the District. the
draftee pool, consisting of "ac-
cepted and examined" draft
candidates. will be built up
from 200 to 500. Mr.. Hillyard
said. He said the process of en-
larging the pool may extend
into September.
The Districts draft quota is
80 men for July, 40 in August.
Nationally, the quota is 5000
men, including volunteers, for
July, 5000 in August. Septem-
ber's draft call has not been
announced.
Maryland officials said the
States pool Of eligible drafteeS
will be increased from 300 to
1,50O. In Virginia, plans were
announced to double the exist
ing draftee pool of 1000 men.

Partygoers found it rather
convenient last evening first
to attend a reception at the
Polish Embassy, and then to
walk over to the adjacent
Italian Embassy for a Sec
ond reception.
But apart from the drinks
there was little in common
between the two affairs.
The Poles were celebrating
the 18th anniversary of the
founding of the Communist
regime in their country, and
the Italians were entertain
ing a group of NATO parlia-
mentarians who were in the
last stage of a tour OF the
United States.
At the first event, Ambas-
Sador and Mrs. Edward Droz-
MAX were hosts to more than
300 persons.
1t was the Ambassadors
first party since he presented
his credentials to President
Kennedy on Wednesday.
Talking to the guests, the
short, gray-haired envoy said
he would be very interested
in increasing trade between
Poland and the United States.
The Ambassador was pres
ident of the Polish National
Bank before his present as
Signment.
He said his country would
like to enter into a formal
trade agreement with the
United States, because there
is need for one. But as vet
no exchange of views on the
subject has taken place be-
tween the two," he added.
Giving a list of goods his
country can sell to the United
States, he said Poland would
like to buy from you ma
chinery, laboratory instru-
ments, raw material, medi-
cineS and other items"
The list of goods Poland
can sell this country, included
Christmas tree ornaments,
and, of course, ham.
Prime Topic
The main topic of CONVEX
sation at the party was the
second American space shot.
Mai. Gen. Aleksandr /.
Rodinov, the Soviet Military
Attache shrugged off the feat
with wry: 1T was a Sue
cess"
But Mrs. Andrzej Michejda,
wife of the Polish vice con-
sui, expressed regret that the
capsule which carried United
States Astronaut Virgil Girls
som soaring 118 miles high
was lost in the sea.
Il do not look upon the
American or the Soviet space
efforts in any nationalistic
light. The attempts Of the
two countries to conquer
space will be of benefit to
the entire humanity" she
said.
Group Capt. Idris Latif,
the Indian Air Attache, had
a hard time coming to the
reception because of a traf-
fic jam.
Praising Capt. Grissom's
feat, he said that space at
least is one place where there
is no traffic problem.
Italian Reception
The host at the Italian re-
ception was Ambassador Ser
gio Fenoaltea, and it was in
honor of the two Italian
members of the NATO parli-
mentary delegation. But
present also were a number
of parliamentarians from
other countries.
Senator Pietro Micara,
leader of the Italian group,
spoke of his meeting with
President Kennedy in the
morning.
He said: About Berlin, our
impression is that the current
crisis there has assumed the
proportions of a showdown,

 Norstad is Supreme Allied Com mander in Europe for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. He was interviewed by Adelbert Weinstein, Military Affairs editor of the Frankfurter Allgemeine.
 Without quoting Norstad direct ly, Weinstein wrote: "The firm ness, despite all willingness to ne- gotiate, and especially the last speech of President Kennedy did not fail to impress Khrushchev. This could be deduced from the report of the American special disarmament negotiator, John J. McCloy who saw Khrushchev last week at the Black Sea resort of Sochi.
