18 Year-Old Draft Likely
Washington —(U.P)— The military manpower problem will reach a critical peak next July when the draft is expected to start grabbing 18½-year-olds.
Defense department officials have raised the armed forces manpower goal from 3,500,000 to about 3,800,-000. Previously, officials have said that this will "scrape the bottom of the draft manpower barrel."
Last week the defense department revealed that it would not recommend any change in the draft law so long as voluntary enlistments continue at a high rate.
That means that the defense department probably will have to call on Selective Service for youths reaching 18} years of age, the minimum draft are.
One solution for getting more manpower into the draft pool may be a reduction in mental and or physical requirements for induction.
But Maj. Gen. E.C. Lynch, director of manpower requirements, said that it is generally agreed that a military force near 4,000,000 men cannot be maintained on a long range basis solely by induction of men becoming $18\%$.
Another long-range solution might be extension of the present 24 months service for draftees. At present, the Defense Department does not favor extension of service time.

Huntington, W. Va. — (U.P.) An anti-Communist organization known as the Society of Red Haters has sprung up in Huntington and may reach national proportions if its founder, Thomas E. Foley, has his way.
Foley, a Huntington attorney and veteran of World War I, said he organized the society to fight back at "Communist traitors" because he has been fed up with and frightened by prospects of Communism in this country for 30 years.
The society is designed to be on
The idea of SRH has long been a dream of Foley but the attorney said it was only in the last few years that he has been able to get others interested in the possibilities of such an organization.
