ceive. plus any other income
they might have, the man would
not be deferred for financial
reasons.
If, however, special circum-
stances, such as invalidism or
obligations make the cost of sup
port higher than the estimated
payments-the man still may be
able to claim service exemption
for support.
Furthermore this vital amend
r,ent recognizes specifically that
certain types of family relation
ship may be considered grounds
for deferment, regardless of the
money question.
It authorizes the President to
see that some grouping Is work
ed out for class 3 Selective Ser
vice registrants-who comprise
IS per cent of all men classified
so that established families
shall not be broken up just be-
cause financial dependency may
have been removed.
Already Major General Lewis
B. Hershey, Director of Selec-
tive Service, is busy working
on. the ticklisN problem of what
categories are to be set up and
in what order men from these
groups shall be cal ID.
It's safe bet that when the
local boards finally get the new
detectives, they'll find that all
single men with dependents
must be called up before the
married ones are touched-and
the guy with a whole bunch of
grade schoolers to look after
will be the last on the list.

are scheduled to hold a meeting
today with the city attorney,
Bert v. Nunneley to discuss
plans for the prosecution and
reprimanding of violaters of the

That was decided at a session

The cou,:cil also discussed the
matter of installing five or six

in service are not audible in
some locations depending upon
the direction of the wind.

WASHINGTON, July PIP
Millions Of hungry people in
Axis-Occupied countries today
had another reason to hope for
a United Nations victory.
1t was the decision of the
United States and four other
countries to set aside an immense
pool of wheat for the relief Of
war-stricken countries, to be
rushed to them 80 soon as the
international situation permits. 7"
That means so soon as avail
able shipping no longer /, mo-
nopolized for the transport of
the tools of war, and ~hips can
carr breadstuffs instead of
bombs, wheat instead of weap-
ons, across the seas.
Establishment of relief pool
of not less than 100, 100000 bu-
shells is only one of the features
of tie wheat agreement made
public yesterday with the Unit
ed States, Great Britain, Canada,
Australia and Argentina as sig
natorie5. Other provisions relate
to the control of wheat produc-
ton, stocks and exports and the
cooperation of all five countries
in the sterilization of prices.
What urgently matters to hum
CRY millions, however, is the
picture of plenty disclosed in the
paragraphs of the pact and in
the facts of the situation it is de
signed to meet.

involved now aggregates nearly
/ 500, 900, 900 bushels. Defeat of
the Axis will clear the seas for
peaceful commerce and put that
wheat into circulation. The ulti-
mate aim is restoration of the in
ternational wheat trade on a
sound basis; but to make sure
tie hungry millions will get
bread without delay as soon as
the war is won the 100000, 900
bushel relief pool is created.
Donations of wheat from the
participating countries will keep
the pool heaped up and running
over with breadstuff. Under the
agreement the United States is
obligated to give 100000 bu-
shells; Canada and Great Britain
agree to give 25,000,000 each.
The agreement provides that
as additional wheat for the pool
is needed, Argentina, Australia,
Canada and the United States
will contribute amounts to be
determined among Their elves.
Britain, as a wheat-trading
center rather than wheat-pro-
ducing country, may contribute

and flour, rather than wheat it.

O.. the five countries involved,
only Argentina is a neutral.
However the relief of distress in
war-stricken areas, after the ces-
sation of hostilities, never has
been considered an improper

Conversations on the use of
the Leaf pool and other aspects
of emergency relief for war
stricken areas already have be-
