Army May Reduce Its Monthly Draft Quotas
Washington (U.P.)—The army now faces the problem of having too many soldiers.
With a manpower ceiling of about 1,500,000,the army already has about 1,400,000 with more than three months to go until the June 30 target date. Pre-Korean strength was about 600,000.The present rate of growth is more than 100,000 a month.
To level off at the 1,500,000 ceiling, army officials are considering further reductions in monthly draft calls or returning some reserves and national guardmen to inactive duty—or perhaps a combination of the two steps. A decision is expected soon.
A service breakdown of the overall 2,000,000 strength figure disclosed by President Truman shapes up something like this:
Navy - 650,000, up 270,000 since the outbreak of the Korean war; Ma-
rines—100,000, up 116,000; air force—
655,000, up 233,000.
The marines are pushing their ceiling of about 200,000, but the navy and air force still have plenty of leeway.
The navy is not expected to reach its planned strength of 800,000 until sometime next year. The air force probably will be last to make its goal of more than 1,000,000, perhaps not reaching it until 1953.

The imminent cutback in army mobilization does not lessen the desire of the top brass for extension of the draft and universal military training and service. Military leaders content this program is vital to provide a large pool of trained reserves, in addition to the standing armed forces of nearly 3,500,000.
