In Reprisa! for Bombings
Nv the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, March 2.-German au-
thorities have arrested 500 civilians
In Amersfoort, the Netherlands. In
reprisal for bombing attacks against
occupation troops, Aneta, the Dutch
news agency, reported yesterday.
Time bombs also were alleged to
have been planted in homes OF
Dutch Nazis, Aneta said.
At the same time a number Of
professors of Amsterdam University
were arrested on undisclosed
charges, but presumably because
they were charged with being con-
nected with renewed outbursts Of
anti-NaN activity in Holland. Those
arrested included Profs. Noetink,
Romein and Heringa of the law,
economics and medicine faculties.
Aneta said preachers in many
Netherland churches still dare offer
prayers that "the invaders be ex-
pelled."

THE completed preparations will
include measures designed to safe

six nurses for each 1000 soldiers.
With an eventual American Army
of 100000 called for, Mrs. Baker
said that the need for nurses is
unlimited.
Only those nurses who are con-
sidered essential either in public
health jobs or in key hospital posi-
tions are not accepted in the Army
Nurse Corps All others are eligible
If they are between q and 40 years
of age and have the necessary phys
ical and training qualifications.
Army nurses become second lieu
tenants Immediately on their assign
ment to active duty. They receive
$50 month plus maintenance and
uniforms. The work is exciting,
though exacting, Mrs. Baker pointed
out but the compensation is the
satisfaction of knowing that your
training and skill are specialized,
the feeling that you are a vital
cog in the war machine.

Prior to our entrance into the war,
the majority of women who were

which they might render in case of
war, were volunteers. Today those

volunteer for a service which will

We must now take our places in

who are not fitted to do that kind

 Hungary's situation had been in creasingly troubled for weeks.

 Observers noted that two Japanese admirals, based at Berlin as special attaches, had arrived at Sofia, Bul- garia. yesterday, after a visit to Tur- key.
 Experts said 1t was apparent that the Japanese and German admiral ties were trying to blow up the inn portance and extent of their opera tions to offset the effects of a war which for the moment at least was not going well for them on any front.
 As regards the Japanese activities in the Atlantic, admiralty quarters intimated that even if they knew anything they would not talk, be- cause of the secrecy vitally impor- tant to the Allied anti-submarine warfare.
 However. informants said they had suspected that Japan would make some statement designed to be start- ling to cover It's chagrin over the de- feats 1t had suffered at the hands of the United States in the Pacific.
 They said also that the Japanese certainly had only scattered units in the Atlantic, if any, possibly c lone propaganda submarine.

and cents effect of the Barkley plan was not estimated.
 "The compromise" Barkley said, "does not have the vice of attempt ing to rewrite the parity formula. " President Roosevelt already has ex- pressed "unalterable opposition" to any rewriting of parity.
 Sen. George w. Norris, Ind, Neb., who made a speech earlier this week supporting the Thomas amendment, announced he would vote for the administration compromise.
 Norris is a member of the Sen ate Agriculture Committee which yesterday voted unanimously to re- ject the compromise and fight out the battle on the basis of the Thomas amendment.
 "This compromise" Norris said "is a perfectly fair and reasonable proposal for everybody. It seems to me that farmers are ready and will ing to do their share of the sacri- ficing. At time like this we must have, above everything else, unity throughout the country and unity between the president and congress.
 Because of the parliamentary sit- uation, 1t appeared likely that the senate first would adopt the Thomas amendment, which is the pending question, and then vote on the con- promise. The latter would knock the Thomas amendment out of the bill by striking out the language which included it.
 Barkley said, however, that nc vote is expected today. He said 8 number of senators still want to speak on the bill, and that debate will continue on until Monday.
 Senator Sheridan Downey, D.. California, introduced an amend ment to the bills wage control sec- tion providing that employees cover ed by contracts entered into prior to September IS may receive any wages or salaries provided for by the terms of any option, renewal or extension provision of the contract.
 President Roosevelt, however, would be authorized to make "ad- justments," in these cases to the same extent that he would be able to make adjustments on other wages and salaries.
 Postponement of any votes until Monday was expected to C,,,c ruh- lie opinion time enough to crystalize into the letter writing stage. Ad- mi1istration leaders hoped such pressure will weaken the blocks wavering lines and counteract the lobbying of farm organizations, which have some 250 representatives working on" senators.

 The theft resulted not only in a monetary loss, MT. Bowen, but it is difficult to secure replacements be- cause of priorities and wartime re- quirementS.
