Draft Chiefs Report
Many Ministers
Prefer Service
Requests for Waivers
Contrast With Stand
Of New York Group

In direct contrast to the attitude
taken last week by a group of New
York students who received prison
sentences, many ministers and di-
vinity students are seeking to waive
their right of deferment under the
Selective Service Act, it was an
nounced at national draft head
quarters today.
Clarence A. DykStra, director of
selective service. said the letters are
being received from all parts of the
country and that while he COM
mendS the spirit of the writer's, he
can only advise each one that the
matter is up to their local boards.
Meanwhile headquarters an
nounced that it is conducting Ma
ton wide inventory of the present
armed forces by home addresses
in order to fix accurate net quotas
to be furnished by States and local
boards before June 80, l94l.
In this way the selective service
headquarters can maintain record
of how the States are approXimatlng
their gross quotas and readjust net
quotas. which are the numbers of
selectees to be supplied by a par
ticular area
AS an example of the attitude of
part of the ministry and ministry
to-be. DR.. Dykstra made public a
letter from Richard L. Scheef. stu
dent at the Eden Theological Semi
nary Webster Groves, Mo.
After much prayerful thought"
the letter declared in part, I have
come to the conclusion that I, as a
theological student. can not accept
the exemption under the Selective
Military Training Act provided for
the clergy and theological students.
! would, therefore, prefer to be
claSSed as a student under the
terms of the act.
Such an act on my part is not to
be taken as my personal sanction
of war. but such an exemption
would raise a distinction between
the clergy and laity'
It was also announced today that
Mai Campbell c. Johnson has been
appointed as Negro executive assist
ant to DR.. Dykstra to aid in queS-
tons which may arise concerning
Negroes and Selective service.

DALLAS, Aug. "a no-third-

effort to make the State go Republi-

tory.
The no-third- term Democratic
party, under the leadership of Mike
Hogg of Houston, was organized last
night before crowd that half filled

preservation of this Republic"

Mr.. Hogg, the main speaker, said
"We - = thank our lucky stars for
the emergence at this time of that
great Democrat, Wendell L. Willkie,
who will lead us out of chaos and
back into the democratic way"
Mr.. Hogg said he was glad to do
his bit to stop this third-term hum

name an executive committee of 81
members representing each of the
States senatorial districts.
He declared the attempt to Presi-

British Forces Take 800 Italian Prisoners Near
 Sidi Barrani

CAIRO, Egypt, Dec. g. - British forces have made contact with the Italians "on broad front" in the Western Egyptian desert, taking 500 prisoners in an engagement south of Sidi Barrani, according to the Brit iSh African Command.
 This front has long been dor mant and the British apparently have been content to prevent the Italians from driving further into Egypt from Sidi Barrani, 75 miles within the western frontier.
 The action was described as oc- curing between British advance elements"
 The Italians, under Marshal Graziani. drove across the Libyan- Egyptian frontier early in the Ital- ian British conflict and marched along the coast to Sidi Barani with little opposition.
 From there, the Italian forces have made little important progress in the past three months.

WASHINGTON inside story of the CIO convention was the dra- matic duel of wits between the greatest snowman in organized la Dor and the greatest strategist.
 Each scored in keeping with his character. John L. Lewis, the mop haired consumate actor, boOmed tri- umphantly through all the oratori- cal skirmishes and press headlines sidney Hillman, the soft-spoken master tactician, won the battle for control.
 During the first three days, Lewis held all the trump cards-plus the spotlight. Although he had prom ised to resign, he was bent on re- taining a firm grip on the CIO helm. To this end he had packed the committees with left-wing henchmen and rigged the conven- tion machinery so that he was boss of the show.
 With the stage carefully set, Lewis set out to provoke the Hillman-led Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers; the core of the opposition, to bolt the convention. That would have left the numerical stronger opposition helpless and barred the election of Phil Murray, who re- fused to take the CIO presidency unless assured of a free hand. With Murray out of the way, the left wingers could have either drafted Lewis or elected complaisant stoogc.
 This was the precarious situation when Hillman rushed to Atlantic City and took personal command of the battle Thursday afternoon, after a long night Of conferring, he took the platform. Hillman didn't make a speech. He is not stump spieler. He talked, in the same quiet, conversational tones he uses when seated at his desk.
 There were no fireworks and no histronics, but there was a lot of unanswerable logic.

WAR, NAVY DEPARTMENTS TAKE (0GNIzANCE OVER
 FIFTH COLUMN REPORTS
By JACK STINNETT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-In spite of the Dies Committee reports and the statements of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Identification, a lot of folk, of- ficial and unofficial, are taking the fifth column" with two grains of salt and sniff.
 Not so with the War and Navy Departments.
 Thousand of civilian employees, newsmen and non-uniformed off cers who daily hang their hats in the long, low War and Navy build- ings that stretch for blocks along Constitution Avenue are having their pictures taken. Before long their coat lapels and blouses will bloom with buttons, showing their photographs and business identifi- cations.
 The fire in the War Department Building few weeks back has been officially written off as ac- cidental. but it did put heat under the precautionary program.
 Not only will all employees have to report with their identifying badges in place, but visitors to the buildings, whether pleasure or business bent, will be escorted by armed guards to the offices on which they are calling.
