Men Over %
Will Lose


WASHINGTON, Dec. II (INS).
-Selective service announced to-
day that it was considering plans
to register all men between the
ages of Is and 65, extend the draft
brackets soon to Is to As and Gull
the present registration lists to
raise an army of 100000 men.
Presumably men over As will be
subject to a later call if necessary.
Brig. Gen. Lewis Hershey, head
of selective service, announced
that the ideal draft bill would be
one that had a broad liability for
registration of man power and a
narrower liability for actual serv-
ice and allowing the men to be
taken in piecemeal fashion as we
need them"
From the present draft brackets
|of Fl to 20, the general said, only
about 100000 are left to induct,
which will bring the drafted per-
sonnet to about 100000.
100000 DEFERRED
The existing. draft law covers
all males between the ages of u
to 35. but recently men, between
the ages OF % and 35 were granted
deferment.
Hershey said about 100000
men between % and 35 were now
deferred because of dependents.
1t will probably be necessary.
Hershey Indicated. to recIassify
many of these according TO how
well their dependents can get
along without them and accord
ing to what aid the government
might be willing to extend to them
while their men were in the army.
He said 100000 to 100000 had
been deferred because of occupa-
ton. Many of these could be re-
placed by women and older work.
ers and could be indicted shortly,
he said.

China Says U. S. Is Sure
 To Enter War

CHUNGKING, China, Nov. - The authoritative Chinese news paper Takung Pao declared that Adolf Hitler'S Munich beer hall speech recently indicates that the Fuchrer is fully determined to fight the United States. Talk ung Pao said that with the de- cision of the United States to arm merchant vessels, a German-Am erican shooting war is bound to become intensified. The paper predicted that formal participa- ton of the United States in the war is now only a matter of time.
 At the same time, Takung Pao suggested that the word neutral ity' be erased from the diction- ary. Said the newspaper:
 No country can escape the ravages of war. So-called neu- tra ity merely affords the aggres sor more time or organize an at tack
 Takung Pao urged Great Brit ain to send an eXpeditionary force to Russia to help save the important Caucasus oil fields.

Failure Of Envoy kurusu Is Predicted

CHUNGKING, China, Nov. - Hhe official Central China Daily News published an editorial by it's diplomatic correspondent charging that Japanese Prime Minister Tojo has sent his spec ial envoy, Saburo Kurusu, to Washington with the dual objec tive of furthering his own pol itical life and to gain time for Japan.
 The China Daily News corre- spondent wrote that it is signi- fcant that by the time Kurusu arrived in Washington the Jap anese Diet opened session. This, said the Chinese paper, is best for Tojo, for by the time the out come of the Kurusu mission is known, the Diet will be adjourn ed, and Tojo will have survived the crucial period in his political life.
 The Chungking paper pointed out that Tojo dispatched Kurusu to Washington to appease both the Japanese favoring rapproach ment with the United States, and the Rightist clements in the Jap anese army, but predicted com plete failure of the Kurusu mis- sion.
