WASHINGTON, July 10 -(A P) The defence Department today asked for 20.000 draftees "at the earliest possible date." for the United States army.

The Department said that the draft call is required to meet man- power neods, since "no other re- course is presentiy available."

Shortly before the annoumement. Maj.-Gen. Lewis B. Hershey had estimated at a press conference that it would take selective service 60 days tp start delivering men, once drafting began. But he be- lisvati it could furnish as many as amino within 90 days if necessary.

Hershey. director of selective ser- vice, held the. conference to answer some of the questions being asked about the draft since President Truman last week authoryted its use if necessary to bring the armed services to desired strength.

Hershey said selective service would start with the 25-year-old: and go down the line when it got a call for men. only men aged 10 to 5 imluslve can be drafted un- der present law. -

Truman approved new "ceilings" for the armed forces last week. For military reasons. the exact figures have been kept secret.

'11-uman today called Republican and Democratic leaders of Con- gress to a White House conference tomorrow on the Korean war crisis.

Whether a major new pronounce- ment oi United states policy might be forthcoming was not immediate- ly known. But there was no talk of one.

It was the third time since the outbreak of the Far Paciffd conflict that Truman had acted to brlnl leaders of both parties into his confidence. Both previous occas-

ions signalled the taking of grave

decisions.

The senate majority leader.

Scott Lucas of Illinois. told re- porters. that as far as he knows

the President is not considering

am drastic new sups in connection with thd Korean situation.

NEW YORK. July 10- (AP)- The cost of living in the United

states went up another notch to- day

Meat andbrsad prices were hiked in retail stores. i

Cotton soared 815 a bale. Cotton cloth prices moved upward, fore-

shadowing probable clothing price incrnsu

Cocoa, coffee. sugar, hides and tin continued upward.

I Much of the blame was put on the Korean war. But other fact- ors entered in. .

A short crop in cotton spurred s 810-a-bale advance on futures, the daily limit permitted on the New York cotton Exchange. and sent the price for s bale in the actual cash market up its to dim. or as cents a pound. highest since May. 1010.

High consumer incomes and big appetites for meat got the credit

for spending most prices higher

Baking have been mounting steadily "prun-

Alleged Discrimination Against Women Members On School BoardProtested

Charges of discrimination against women and behind-the-scene act- ivities in connection with the re-

cent School Board appointment"

were levelled at His Worship Mayor MacDonald and members of the City Council by I three- woman delegation from the School Improvement League backed by four other ladies at. a one-hour session held just before the month- ly meeting of the Council last evening.

The particular cause of griev- g

ancc was the appointment of Dr. W. R. Carson to the School Board in place of Mrs. Gordon MacDon- ald whose term of office expired this year.

The protest. signed by Mrs. Er- skine MacNutt, chairman, Mrs. George Buntain and Mrs. H. J. Brown. read as follows:
