CALL OF HUSBANDS

SPEEDS

PROPOSAL

‘New Congress Will Be Asked to Enact Law at Once; Plan Meets Favorable Reaction in Areas Where Now in Use.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29

(U. P.).—Pooling of all single

men on a state-wide basis for induction into the armed forces before the calling of a state’s married men will be proposed to the new congress, it was learned today. An amendment requiring this type of pooling was in‘cluded in the house version of the 18-19-year-old draft adopted last month. But it was.removed by a conference committee. One representative and one senator only voted favorably upon it in conference. The reason was never made public and even Rep. Paul

J, Kilday (D. Tex.), author

of the amendment, said he was _ still without knowledge as to the reason for its disappearance. Administration sources said it was planned to ask congress to pass the required legislation to permit pooling as soon as possible. Objections to the drafting of husbands, which already is under way in most states, were said to be giving added impetus to the desire to press for the legislation.

Pennsylvania Starts Plan

The plan already is in use in Pennsylvania, where state and local selective service officials adopted it on their own initiative. The: plan met such favorable reaction and worked so well that Pennsylvania newspapers opened an editorial campaign advocating its adoption on a nation-wide basis. The pooling plan would end situations where one community with few single men finds it necessary to draft married men while an adjoining community, or one-in another part of the state, with a surplus of single men, fills its quotas - without even facing an immediate ‘need to call married men. Selective service officials said that drafting of married men is under way in practically every state. With 18 and 19-year-olds expected to fill only about half of the 3,500,000 needed for the armed forces in 1943, local draft areas’ will be contributing an increasing number of ‘ childless married men unless state pooling is adopted, it was said.

_Navy Retains Older Men

The navy announced, meanwhile, that it would not grant requests for ‘reléase from service of officers and men 38 or older. President Roosevelt has issued an executive order that men 38 or over may be released

from: the army if they show they|

have civilian jobs waiting them in some essential industry. The navy’s statement said: “Since all officers and men of the navy volunteered for service before the president’s executive order halting enlistments on Dec. 5, 1942, they ‘are considered individuals who have joined the navy of their own free * will and will be retained for the duration. } “No officers or men were taken into the navy under compulsion. As the nation’s supply of manpower ~'decreased, the navy refused to accept for enlistment men who were in industries vital to the war effort. Thus, the navy sees no need to release personnel 38 years of age or over.” .

SEARGH FOR BODY ENTERS 11TH DAY

The search for the body of Henry Metz Jr. 89-year-old youngster: believed to have drowned in the canal near 29th st. entered its 11th day _ today. Police squads already have dragged . the canal several times from the point where a glove and lunchbox ‘belonging to the boy were found on the ice Dec.” 18 downstream to 17th st. Assisting in the search were six volunteers from the naval armory under the direction of Chief Petty Officer Leo J. Witte. Armory officers also were permitting the use of a navy boat and navy drag hooks in the operations. The Metz boy, son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Metz, 1503 W. 29th st., was believed: to have drowned while on the way home from school.

HOARDING SEEN IN GAS TAX RISE

Sales for November Top Those for Previous Year By 106,000 Gallons.

Indiana motorists last month, the month before gasoline rationing Lwent into effect, bought more than 108,000 gallons more gasoline than they did in November, 1941, the month before the outbreak of war, gasoline tax collection figures in the state auditor’s office showed today.

Tax collections last month totalled; (the watch,” he said.

$2,495,817, an increase of $26,747 over the same month a year ago. This 'increase in gasoline sales can be attributed only to hoarding, State Auditor Richard T.., James said. } November, was the first month since last January, the month after Pearl Harbor, that showed an increase in gasoline sales over the corresponding month a year ago. Want December Check Since then, gasoline sales had declined steadily until October when there was a pickup, but not enough to equal sales in October, 1941. State officials are waiting anxiously for the report on gasoline sales

'in December for that will give them

an idea of what gasoline rationing will do to state finances. The highway department receives a large portion of its revenues irom the 4-cent a gallon tax on gasoline. This report will not be available, however, until late next month.

Japs See. Eclipse As Part of War

NEW YORK, Dec. 29 (U. P).— The Tokyo radio proclaimed yesteraay that an eclipse of the sun which will be seen in Japan on Feb. 5 is “a feature of the scientific war between Japan and America.” The Japanese broadcast, recorded by the federal communications commission, said that “every possible preparation is being made to make certain that ultimate victory of the Japanese scientists in this war of science with America is achieved.” The total eclipse will be visible on Feb. 4 (correct) to American observers in Eastern Alaska and the - Aleutians, and a partial eclipse will be visible in some parts of the Western United States.

Rotary Best § Sure War Will Bring Renaissance

To Europe.

“Europe will be better after the war. It will undergo the greatest spiritual renaissance the world has ever known,” Louis Dolivet, speaker for the Rotary club’s noon luncheon, said today in an interview, - Mr. Dolivet bases his opinion on experience - with people who have

underground movements in. France his native country, When the war broke out in France, Mr. Dolivet served with the air forces. After the armistice in July, 1941, he went to work for the underground in his native land. Two weeks following the armistice he learned that he had been placed on the Nazi blacklists. So he became what he termed “illegal.”

Take Assumed Names

“Illegal” persons in France, according to Mr. Dolivet, are those who live under assumed names, don’t register in hotels and hide in peasants’ homes. He, indicated that there were plenty of homes in which to hide for the French people “were opposed to fascism fromthe beginning.” “The underground Is successful In France and other occupied countries -in Europe because in those countries there is no fascist party. Everyone was willing to help me. Farm houses are open to protect those fleeing from the police. “The Nazi, Vichy, Italian and Spanish police are constantly on In escaping to North Africa, Mr. Dolivet was caught twice by police. He was unable to tell how his escapes were arranged because “such knowledge might endanger the lives of others.”

Heads Association

However, he hinted that if caught, local authorities, not in sympathy with the Nazis might. be willing to help and that Italians watching the ships to North Africa do not investigate passports very thoroughly. Mr. Dolivet is secretary general of the Free World association, a group formed by representatives from countries all over the world, and working te win the war for democracy. He also is editor of the Free World magazine, published in New York.

. NEW DELHI, Dec. 29 (U. P.).—A patrol of the India eastern army invading Burma has encountered Japanese forces near Rathedaung, 20 miles from the Burmese port: of Akyab, a British communique reported today. The enemy broke off the contact after an exchange of shots in a clash which occurred the night of Dec. 27, it was revealed. This indicated a British advance, at least of forward units, of some 20 miles toward Akyab. The allied fliers continued to soften Japanese airdromes and other installations deep in Burma, the communique said. R. A.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29 (U. P.). -~The United States has ordered the Finnish information center in New York to cease issuance of news releases and Finland has ordered the American legation at Helsinki to stop sending out bulletins prepared by the office of war information, it was learned today. The development, apparently reflecting increased tension in the relations between the two countries, followed recent publication of reports in this country of a party at the Japanese legation in Helsinki on Dec. 7, anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, attended by Prime Minister J. W. Rangell and -other Finnish government officials, These reports said the Finns

URGES CURB ON '43 LEGISLATURE

Dawson Wants Assembly's New Measures Confined To War Needs.

One of the best recommendations that could be made to the coming session of the legislature wouid be for it to confine itself to only measures of absolute necessity to

meet war needs, Lieut. Gov. Charles Dawson declared in an address before’ the Indiana Association of Commercial Secretaries today. This, he said, would eliminate many reform ideas that are springing up at the present and are claimed to be needed to meet war emergencies. He talked before a luncheon of the association at the Columbia club,

Sees Population Change

The lieutenant governor who will be the presiding officer in the senate, said he felt that “we should not be rushed into some measures under so-called emergencies.” He cited specifically proposals to extend jurisdictions of cities into counties and townships and said that when the war is over, population may start shifting away from cities leaving many ghost towns in the state. i Mr. Dawson criticized the in-

{creasing federal control over state

government and assailed a proposed pill in congress which-would have appropriated = $300,000,000 to the states for educational purposes. Raps Benefit System

“I maintain that the federal government is not going to play Santa Claus to the tune of that much money without having some strings attached to it,” he said. He assailed the old-age benefit and unemployment compensation system as “dictatorial.” He asked that all people scan carefully the bills introduced at the coming session of the legislature “to see that the ‘rights which we have enjoyed under constitutional government for almost 1140 years, and for which our boys now are offering their lives to maintain, are not lost.”

PRIVATE ‘GETS MAD: TAKES IT OUT ON JAP

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29 (U. P.. —This is the story, released by the marine corps, of how Pvt. Thomas Cook, “got mad” one day on Guadalcanal. The story was told by marine corps combat ‘correspondent Richard H.:Venn of San Francisco, in a delayed dispatch from Guadalcanal dated Dec. 1. Venn interviewed platoon Sergt. Edward . Fristock, 21, of Ogelsby, Ill, after a mission west of Henderson field in which Fristock was wounded above the eye by a hand grenade fragment. Pfc, Walter T. Leamy of Union, N.-J., and Cook had been wounded in covering a withdrawal by a group of marines under Fristock. Leamy’s automatic had jammed. Cook, identified by Fristock as a former copy boy for a New York newspaper, had no ammunition. “A Jap came, toward him,” Pristock related of Cook, “fired five times and missed him every time. Anyway, Cook got mad, charged him and split the butt of his rifle over the Jap’s head.” Thereupon, Fristock, Pfc. David Day of Knoxville, Tenn. and two officers moved up to “finish the Japs off.” “We knocked off about 20 Japs,” Fristock said, “and returned to our base.”
