(Committee hearings are starting now on this legislation in both houses of Congress0
 (3). There undoubtedly will be suspension of recruiting. The Navy policy Gall navy personnel so far is recruited is all that is holding this up now. The reason for stopping voluntary enlistments is the necessary control of all available manpower. Shortages of manpower in many communities and a number of industries all ready have occurred because the boys dashed to the colors before they were called)
 (4). Unmarried men with de- pendents and married men without children will be called eventually probably soon, but close attention will be given to avoiding actual hardship cases. (This is just about draft headache No. I, although there are no prioritiss on head aches in selective service)
 (5). It is possible that the pres ent size of the Army can be lit tie better than doubled before it will be necessary to call married men with children. When that time will come is uncertain and can only be guessed at by adding up selective service estimates Best guess: the end of 1943. Other than this there is very little worth considering in the prognostications on the future of selective service.

air by Japanese who had initial advantage because their small fighter planes could be flown to the scene of combat while ours must be crated and shipped. The strategy of war with Japan is not changed and called for delaying battles, with America meanwhile waging war of attrition against Japanese in this United States.
 The Allies are taking a terrific toll of the enemy. Including los ses at Pearl Harbor, we have de- stroyed considerably more Jap anese planes than they have dc stroyed of ours.
 The President was unspanne in casti0a+iag Tumol mongers and poison peddlcrs in our midst" who among other things spread the losses at Pearl Harbor far beyond reality. The President lad down three high purposes ot Americans at home:
 1. We shall not stop work for single day. If any dispute a. rises we shall keep on working while the dispute is solved by mediation, conciliation or arbi- grafton until the war is won.
 ?. We shall not demand spec ial gains or special privileges or advantages for any one group or occupation.
 8. We shall give up convenl- ences and modify the routine ot our lives. If our country asks us to do so we shall do it cheerfully, remembering the common enemy seeks to destroy every home, ev- cry part of our land.

President,s Speech

Washington lP)-President Roosevelt said that America has been compelled to yield ground to it's enemies, but added that with constantly increasing pro duction the Allies will take the offensive soon in a drive on to victory.
 We and the other united na- tions are committed to destruc ton ofmilitaris5 Japan, Germany and Italy. We are increasing our strength and soon we, not our enemies, will have the offensive; we, not they, will win the final battles; and we, not they, will make the final peace"
 Despite cruelty long distances involved, the President disclosed that large numbers of planes manned by American pilots are now in daily contact with the enemy in the southwest Pacific, and said thousands of American troops are in the southwest Paci- fic.
 Recent surveys have disclosed prodigiously high production goals established 2 months ago being attained, and this he re- peatedly emphasized as the key to victory.
 Roosevelt spoke on the radio in this third maIor address made since the country entered the war.

been published in limited edition
by the Library of Congress. The
list now is being distributed to 200
libraries, universities, museums, mu-
sicologists and folk-lorists through
out the United States, Canada and
Latin America.
Containing over 10000 titles, the
check list does not include nearly
all the American folk songs that
exist, but it does include representa-
tive variants of most of the impor-
tant types. The songs are listed both
alphabetically by title and in a geo.
graphical index under State and
county. The titles used are gener-
ally those given by the singers them
selves.
The recordings were made in the

Each entry in the alphabetical in

and the call number of the master
