Adlai Sees Need
For Co-Existence
in Coming Year
New York (U.R) Adlai E.
Stevenson, Democratic Presi
dential candidate in '1952, said
today "It is either co-existence
or no existence in the atomic-hydrogen
age.'1
Stevenson's statement was con
tained in a series of predictions
for 1955 collected from national
and world leaders by Look mag
azine. "Co-existence" was the
subject of many of the predic
tions. To Press Forward
Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles made the prediction that:
"Under the wise guidance of
President Eisenhower, the De
partment of State will press for
ward, to consolidate the gains
made in the last 12 months and
to assure the opportunity to en
joy, in peace, the blessings of
liberty." .
French Premier Pierre Men-des-France
saw a year of oppor
tunities "to strengthen the ties
among free nations" thus help
ing "to overcome our fears, to be
ready for and to seek each con
crete opportunity for world un
derstanding, . co-operation and
disarmament with a good will
that our partners will have to
recognize.".
Red Concept Assailed -
Sen. William F. Knowland,
Republican majority leader and
an opponent of much adminis
tration . foreign policy, assailed
the "Communist concept -of
'peaceful - co-existence' " which
he said "means that, the United
States and other free nations will
be allowed to exist only until
Communism has been able to
subvert them from within or
destroy them by aggression from
without.

Find It Easier
May
To Win Deferments
Washington (U.R) Maj. Gen.
Lewis .B. Hershey said today
draft rules will not be changed
as a result of reduced monthly
calls but that registrants un
doubtedly will find it a little
easier to win deferments.
' The draft director said the ad
ministration's decision to cut in
ductions in half, from 22,000 or
23,000 to 10,000 or 11,000 month
ly, also will mean draft-age
youngsters will have longer to
wait before their selection, even
if they are not deferred.

years from the time a man regis
ters at age 18, and that under
the reduced calls it may go as
high as four. They said this
could mean that some young
men may finish college without
ever seeking deferment. :
Hershey said some few regis
trants might escape the draft al
together, although he does not
think this likely. ' ' ,
Rejections To Rise
. Another inevitable result of
the cutback, Hershey told a re
porter) is that rejections for phy
sical reasons will . rise, as the
services get more, selective.
About 33 per, cent of all regis
trants already are being classed
