TRIP NO EXCUSE
FROM FAR EAST
U. S. Strengthens Defenses In Pacific, ‘Freezes’ Rumanian Funds.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11 (U. P.).— The United States studied plans to-
day for evacuating Americans from|
the Far East after a series of moves designed to strengthen defenses in the Pacific. Maritime Commission officials revealed that they and State Department officials will negotiate with representatives of the United States Lines looking toward the possible use of the liners Manhaftan, Washington or possibly the America, the largest passenger vessel ever built in this country, for bringing Americans home from Asia. Shortly after the State Department revealed that it had advised all Americans in the Far East to return to the United States, Secretary of State Cordell Hull said that the question of sending ships would have to await definite information on how many would be returning. President Roosevelt last night conferred with Mr. Hull and Undersecretary Sumner Welles, presumably on Far Eastern problems. That conference came at the end of a day during which: 1. Presidentt Roosevelt ordered frozen” approximately $100,000,000 in Rumanian funds in this country after receipt of reports that Ger-
Frank (The Enforcer) Nitti, reputed head of the Chicago underworld, is shown as he appeared at Criminal Court, surrendering on the indietment charging him and others with conspiracy to seize the local bartenders’ union.
man troops were entering that country. 2. The State Department cancelled the export license on a shipment of 10 military ‘planes consigned to Thailand (Siam). Officials feared that they might reacn Japan against which a “moral” embargo on airplanes has been in effect for more than a year. 3. Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson ordered reinforcement of Army forces in Hawaii and Alaska. 4. Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox called 23 battalions of the Marine Corps Reserve to active duty Nov. 7.
TO AVOID DRAFT
Eligibles for Army Told to Be Near Registration Place Wednesday.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11 (U. PJ).
—Men required to register for mili-
tary training were advised today to make sure they will be near a registration place Wednesday.
The warning was for persons who are planning vacations or other trips that might take them to places where there are no arrangements for registration.
Maj. Edward $S. Shattuck, chief of the legal division of the selective service headquarters, said that although liberal plans have been made for registration anywhere, they would not excuse persons from registering whether they are on a transcontinental train or a canoe trip in the north woods.
Persons wishing to volunteer may announce their intention to do so at the time they register or at any later date. Major Shattuck said that local boards having more volunteers- than their quota on the first draft will not be permitted to send them to an adjoining board where there are fewer volunteers.

CLEVELAND, O., Oct. 11 (U. P.). —Seventy - three-year-old = William H, Blair still rides his own bicycle as much as 120 miles a day. “I started riding bicycles back in 1881,” he said. “My first wheel was a
wooden one-—and it was a boneshaker, I can tell you.”

OPPOSITION HERE
Pastor Says: Conscientious Objectors May Refuse To Register.
A prediction that there will be “some” conscientious objectors in Indiana who will refuse to register for the draft next Wednesday was made here yesterday by the Rev. John Metzler, Bourbon, of the Church of the Brethren. The prediction was made at a’ conference of leaders of the Friends, Church of the Brethren and Mennonite Churches with Lieut. Col.
State Selective Service staff. | “I don’t believe the conscientious! objectors who are sincere in their; opposition to registration will run | away and hide on registration day,” the Rev. Mr. Metzler said. “Rather, I believe they will go before the registrars and say, ‘Here is my name and address, but I am a conscientious objector and I won't sign the registration card.” Lieut. Col. Hitchcock pointed out that such action would subject the individual to the penalty for evading registration—a maximum fine of $10,000 or a five-year prison sentence, or both. The Rev. Mr. Metzler said that he believed that nearly all of the members of his church governed by the law would register. A. G. Horner, Kokomo, representing the Mennonite Church, said he felt about the selective service law as did the Rev. Mr. Metzler. The Rev. Errol T. Elliott, pastor of the First Friends Church here and one of the three Quaker representatives at the conference, said he would advise young men to “follow their own conscience.” Both the Rev. Mr. Elliott and M. Sherman Presser, Ft. ‘Wayne, mem-
