Of Greek Letter Houses

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. 4.-Gov.
Darden. stating he had been ad-
vised indirectly that there were fra
ternities in some high schools of the
State declared today that insofar
as my authority goes I will seek
elimination of them entirely"
The Governor said he planned to
ask the State superintendents of
public instruction to make an in
vestigation and find out how many
schools may have Greek letter So
cieties.
Then I will use whatever inf1u-
ence is at my command to have
them done away with" the Cover
nor added. II do not think they
have any place in the public school
system"
He emphasized that such possible
action would not be directed against
any literary societies or organiza-
tions based on scholarship or stu
dent advancement.
The Governor said his informa-
tion, which had not yet been
checked, came in the form of letter
from woman who expressed the
desire that fraternities in high
schools be abolished.
The Governor has received a
number of letters since he proposed
before the William and Mary Col
lege Board of Visitors wednesday
that fraternities and sororities in
State-supported schools be pro-
hibited from maintaining houses.
The board inlorsed the suggestion.
A meeting of the University of
Virginia Board of Visitors has been
called for September IA to consider
the Governors move.
The Interfraternity Association at
William and Mary yesterday termed
removal or limitation of fraternities
"a serious blow to the morale and
spirit of the college" and announced
1t would petition the Board of Wis.,
itors for a hearing.

New Draft Registration

The new 18-to-64 draft regis tration vii start in February. Un like the original registration, it will not be done in a day.
 Because of the tremendous job of handling 24,0O0,000 men who come under the new law, regis tration may be extended over a period of weeks and will be by age groups.
 In the first draft, with the aid of 100000 volunteer workers, l7,500,000 men were registered on one day, October Is, 1940. To avoid sWamping the $500 local draft boards, Selective Service chiefs have now decided to adopt a split-up "R Day system, ex- tending over a period of weeks.
 When the registration has been completed, Selective Service fil- es will contain the names of 42,- 090,OO0 mon available for mill tary duty.

OPM chiefs are very proud of the.r latest internal reorganiza- ton cantralizing control directly in the hands of Directors Knud- sen and Hillman.
 Ii is contcnded that this will eliminate much red tape and speed up administrative process es. However, newsmen have had difficulty fathoming the intrica- cies of the new set-up and one reporter asked an OPM big-shot to explain its operation.
 Well, under the new system, " said the official, "alI industrial branch chiefs report direct to Knudsen-Hillman instead of to their divisions chiefs as was pre- v,ously done'
 What happens if Knudsen- Hillman cant decide what should be done?'
 They cal in the division chief"
 Oh said the reporter, by this time more confused than ever. Instead of the branch chief con sulting his division chief before seeing Knudsen-Hillman, he now sees them first and they call in the division chief"
 That's right. See the amount of time saved?"
 No, I don't" said the news man. And neither do you"

Alaska Secretary
 Announces Rules As To Philippines

JUNEAU, Jan. = In view of the situation created by the tenn porary enemy occupation of im- portant parts of the Philippine Islands, the Treasury Depart ment has issued a Circular call ing attention that Philippine as sets have been automatically frozen under the December 26, l94l amendment to the freezing orders, it was announced by Sec retary of Alaska, E. L. Bartlett.
 The new circular prescribed that for purposes of the freezing orders the Philippine Islands should be regarded as if they were a separate blocked country and that January l, 1942 should be regarded as the effective date of the freezing regulations as ap- piled to the Philippines. This was done to facilitate the admin istration of freezing control ov- CT Philippine asset and also to provide the public with specific standards to guide their compli- ance with the freezing regula- tions relating to the Philippines. For all practical purposes this had the same effect as though freezing control had been specif- ically extended to the Philip pine Islands on January 1, 1942.
 The freezing restrictions will not affect Philippine citizens within the United States or with in the generally licensed trade area.

The thing the German and Jap
anese respect most and fear most,
is the American factory. The Board
of Economic Warfare is the board Of
strategy which directs this powerful
weapon of offense.
Some countries on the borderline
of Axis influence have things we want
and want things we have. Let us
say ''Belgravia' has ordered GER
tain foodstuffs she requires for her
starving people. The deal is ar
ranged. At the same time, we have
been trying to get a certain chem
ical that "~Belgravia' is shipping
to the Axis. So the order to release
the foodstuff finds it's way to a GER
tain desk in the BEW. The food is
not delivered. The minister of Bel
gravia calls at the state department
to ask the cause of the delay. He
is referred to a little Office in the
shabby apartment building. The talk
soon turns to the chemical that we
want. An understanding is reached.
As I sat in this building listening
to the almost all-encircling enter
prises the BEW is undertaking. the
Presidents phrases came back to
mean aI-encircling war"-"an
overwhelming superiority" real
lied that this encirclement, which
the enemy is attempting to achieve
with a line of flesh and blood and
steel, America is gradually accom-
plishing with a wall that will keep
out the vital supplies that make the

realized, too, that Overwhelming
superiority" when it is established,
will be established by the power of
Americas economic machinery.

Uncle Sam Again in
Life Insurance Business

Uncle Sam is in the life insurance
business again.
In World War I the government
issued insurance of more than 4,000,-
900 policies to members of the
armed services with a total face val
ue of nearly $40. 900, 600, 900. The idea
when these policies were issued, the
government paying the extra pre-
MUM demanded of a person step
ping up in the direction of machine
guns, was that this was all that
could be expected of a grateful re-
public. After struggling with the
burden of Civil war pensions it was
believed that the insurance would
take their place.
The men themselves. as ex-sol-
diers and as citizens, would proba-
bly, have been entirely satisfied. But
the politicians couldn't let a good
thing like that get away.
The first sweetener Ia the bonus.
Then came the other bonuses one
after the other and the various bene-
fits which needn't be related here.
The insurance policies were not a
heavy burden. They cost the gov
eminent only ST., ia, 600 which was
the difference between what the gov
eminent paid out and the premiums
paid in. For you e it was a bust
ness proposition. The premiums
were taken out of the soldiers pay
while he was in the army. When he
was discharged he either kept up
the premiums or dropped the policy.
Now Uncle Sam is ready to do
the same thing for the present army.
AS of February IA, 1912, 1908, 500
applications for insurance policies
have been received by the veterans
administration with a total face val
ue of 81, 955, 900, 900.
The policies are in multiples of
$500 and $40, 900 is the limit. The
premiums amount to only 81 cents
a month per thousand dollars for a
man Is years of age. No man who
has any sense at all will miss the
Ct cents when he scoops his money
into his hat. signs the payroll and
salutes once a month.
There is no red-tape, no physical
examination. Any man who can
stand up and get shot at is healthy
enough to be insured.
