The defense chief said 160,000 uniformed Americans already are stationed in South Viet He wouldn't on low many more would be sent because "we don't wish to-give our opponents advance information on the forces that they will confront in the future." Secretary of State'Dean Rusk, who joined McNamara and other top policy advisers for the marathon session with Johnson, said Viet Nam actually took second place in the discussions to "the unilateral action of the white minority government in Rhodesia in illegally seizing power, an action which the United States government deplores." Promising a- further Rhodesia policy statement today from United Nations Ambassador Arthur J.

Goldberg, Rusk said Johnson had ordered the recall of American diplomats in the African country headed by Consul General Roswell B. McClelland and the shutdown of activities there by the United States Information Agency.

In launching the campaign, Jack Laymoh, Sangralea super intendent said facilities at the home now provide for 22 boys and are always filled to capacity.

"The courts and welfare agencies which send boys to us tell us the need for our work is urgent and unlimited. "We must take care of more boys," he added. Horsman is now in the process of setting up an organization for this campaign--'which will be conducted the early part of 1966; Pledges can cover two Although pledges 6r will be received' this year; if. for any reasons a donor, desires to give part or 'in 1965.

In he received Distinguished Service -Award given annually Kokomo Junior Chamber He is also, active.in i the United Red and Goodwill Industries: Commenting "acceptance of the general chairmanship for this campaign, Horsman said, "I felt that I wanted to, and in fact do what I could to assist one of the most worthwhile'- projects I have encountered. McNamara, in talking about 'ohnson's orders for more roops to Viet Nam, mentioned no qualifications. If the commanders on the scene ask for additional forces, he said, the men will be dispatched. To meet these troop needs, McNamara said there is no plan 'at this time" to mobilize any National Guard or Reserve units or to extend duty tours.

He the draft and voluntary enlistments should cover the situation. The December draft call, he said, would total about 40,000 men. And he added, "I don't anticipate that it will be necessary at any time in the near future for draft calls to rise above that figure." Both McNamara and. Rusk a rather optimistic view of current situation in South Viet Nam. McNamara said the Viet Cong clearly attempted during the ummer monsoon season to split the country "in two at its narrow waist, and to dismember and maul the military forces of Jiat nation." But he said the South Vietnamese, with American help, "have blunted and defeated that Viet Cong offensive, and the Viet Cong have paid a very heavy price indeed for their monsoon activities." He said Viet Cong casualties were 100 per cent higher -than during the comparable period last year while South Vietnamese casualties were 40-45 per cent higher.

However, he said Viet Cong forces continue to grow in numbers, despite casualties, "and therefore we believe it will be necessary to add further to the strength of the U.S. combat forces presently deployed in South Viet Nam."
