Foiled Anglo-Nazi Ribbentrop Asserts.

western hemisphere. He was backed up by Maj. Gen. Willard 8. Paul, army personnel chief, who warned that without a continuing draft, the army would have to give up “missions, bases, equipment and research.” Hershey and Paul related that the army alone required about 50,000 men monthly, Hershey said only 10,000 would volunteer monthly unless their draft boards were breathing down their necks.

This is election year and the draft is not popular with the folks back home, Traditional anti-draft senators, however, still fought loudly and openly against continuing selective service beyond the present May 15 expiration date. Senators Edwin C. Johnson (D. Colo.), Elbert D. Thomas (D. Utah) and Chapman Revercomb (R. W. Va.) were scheduled to attack draft arguments again today when Vice Admiral Louis Denfeld, chief of naval personnel, goes before the senate military affairs committee, Need 50,000 Monthly Selective Service Director Lewis Hershey asked the committee yesterday for an indefinite continuation of conscription.

Consider Bath Tubs

Small said he couldn't look into the future any better than the senator, but he wasn’t much worried about supply catching up with demand for many years. He did, however, produce some interesting figures on building materials of all varieties. Since we're talking about em, let us consider bath tubs. In 1939, the last normal peace time year, Americans bought 887,000 bath tubs, most of which were too short for comfort. This year,” with the housing program shifting into high, the nation will need 1,350,000 bath tubs. Next year we'll have to have 1875,000 bath tubs, which I fear still will not be long enough. This Indicates that as a race,

have .to struggle along with’ only one bath tub in their new houses. “But where are you going to get all these bath tubs?” asked Senator Robert A, Taft of Ohio. Plastic Tubs

“What about plastic bath tubs?” countered Senator Alben W. Barkley of Kentucky. Small said bath tubs were a problem, all right. He said there probably would be 20 per cent too few no matter what he does. Ordinarily, he added, a bath tub is made of cast iron. “But we’ also are making bath tubs of steel now,” he said. “And I have no doubt that we'll also get into plastics.” He said also that if the scheme works as scheduled, he hopes to remove his verbotens against nonveteran building by the end of this year. When that time comes and if Senator Capehart is correct about prices, I'll build me a house without a bath tub. A shower, gentleman, is my preference.

JEALOUSY CAUSES OLDER MEN TO KILL

By Science Service ST. LOUIS, March 29.—Among killers, it is the older men who murder women to avenge acts of infidelity or unrequited love. Younger men are more likely to kill meh

_instead of women, and to kill be-|

cause of an insult during an argument. Study. of 200 murderers, sentenced to the state prison of “southern Michigan during a five-year period, wag reported here today before the meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science by Dr. Irwin August Berg and Dr. Vernon Fox of the University of Illinois. Murderers are older than the average for all the prisoners, they found. The average age for killers is 34 as compared to the general average of a little over 29, They also have less education and lower intelligence. Sex murders by older mer were much more violent than those committed for other motives. But among younger men, just the opposite was true. :
