President Decides Not to Grant
Extra Holiday on July 5

President Roosevelt announced in
Hyde Park, N. Y. today that Federal
employees will not be given an extra
holiday next Saturday, July S, be-
cause Of the existing emergency.
The Presidents decision was made
known with release by White House
aides at Hyde Park of a letter to
House Majority Leader Mccormack,
who originally proposed the extra
holiday.
Under ordinary circumstances" +"
Mr.. Roosevelt wrote, 1T would be
quite agreeable to me to carry out
the suggestion contained in your
letter of June %, that Government
employees be excused from duty on
the Saturday, four-hour, work day
following July 4, Independence Day.

program and of the fact that our
defense program is an 'all-out' one
involving the services of employees in
nearly all of the departments, estab-
lishments and agencies, it does not
seem to me that it would be advis-
able to close down our Government
plant on that dsy."
Informed of the Presidents de-
cision, the Office of Chairman RAN
dolph of the House District Com
mittee indicated that no further
effort would be made to obtain
House action on a resolution which
Mr.. Randolph introduced yesterday
declaring July 5 to be a legal holi-
day.
Representative Randolph, who had
announced earlier that he would
seek prompt action on the measure,
could not be reached for comment,
but his aides said nothing more
would be done In view of Mr.. Roose-
velt's decision.

BERLIN, June 28 (P>.-Informed
German sources today placed total

German, and reported the sinking
of six merchantmen totaling n 500
tons off the English southeast coast
by Nazi airmen overnight.

Germany and occupied territory
were acknowledged. Day and night
chaser planes were credited with
downing "a British craft, anti-air-
craft batteries six, naval artillery
five and infantrymen one.

Emergency Resolution
MAY Be Asked 10 Give
President Free Hand
Declaration by Congress
Would Allow Him to Hold
SeIectees in Army
By the Associated Press.

The administration was reported
reliably today to have decided to ask
Congress for formal declaration OF
a national emergency to give Presi-
dent Roosevelt as commander ir
chief free hand in defense moves
The War Department was said by
informed sources to have urged sUch
a declaration. which would permit
indefinite retention in service of the
selective service trainess as we'll as
the National Guard and Reserve
officers.
Officials noted it likewise would
lift restrictions on the President s
power to order troops to points out
side the Western Hemisphere.
Such a declaration by Congress
would give the Chief Executive va
rious other powers lacking under
the national emergency proclama-
ton which the President issued
without formal concurrence of Con-
gress.
Legislative sources understood the
request for a congressional declara-
ton to permit retention of guards
as substitute for a simple resolu-
ton to permit retention of Guards
men and reservists beyond their
single year of service.
The President received from the
War Department this week a recon-
mendation that steps be taken to
retain the Guard and Reserve Of
ficers.
Under the Selective Service Act,
drafted men may be kept in uniform
beyond year only when Congress
declares that the national interest
is in peril" Like the guards
men, selectees may not now be sent
outside American possessions and
the Western Hemisphere under ex-
listing statutes.

initiated the 9th Red Army di-

columns in seven days of furious
thrusts against Soviet armed forces
will be made known tomorrow, just
one week after the outbreak of the
Russo German war, the Fuehrers S
field headquarters promised.
The headquarters communique
again deliberately refrained from
mentioning any specific action on
the far-fung Russian front and
named not single town taken. La
conically it asserted:
Our big successes in the eastern
theater of war will be made known
in special, announcements tomor-

annihilation of an entire Russian
division was the second time such
