All sessions of the conference were closed, but various sources agreed there had been no dissension in the discussion of the reclassification plan.
 Hershey once said that drafting of fathers would begin about July 1, but now he will not discuss a specific date because of several fac- tors. including a belief that 1t might be delayed by the possibility that public opinion is going to drive from the factories the young men whose sole claim to deferment has been occupation.

 PENS ATTACKED
Americans Hit IS U-BOat HuIIs; Buildings, Facil-

London, April 7.-(UP)-Recon- naissance reports show that IS U- boat hulls were hit by bambs from United States Flying Fortresses that raided the German submarine pens a Vegesack, an RAF spokesman said today. z
 Seven of the hulls were severely damaged. the spokesman said, and six more were hit lightly.
 The badly damaged included one U-boat almost ready for launching two set for probable launching in May, two for June, one for July and one for August.
 It was believed the yards were put out of action by several months due to damage to buildings and fla cilitieS.
 The spokesman added tha a great deal can be said for attacking U- boats at their birthplace rather than at sea.
 The United States attack on Will helmshaven was said to have in- ilicted adamage on almost all the naval works and port facilities. The spokesman said the United States day bombings are fully as accurate as the RAF night attacks, with the percentage of hits on the targets somewhat higher than that of the night raiders.
 The United States raid on the Renault works in Paris was de- scribed as "extremely successful. Scarcely a. building escaped some damage. Ten days after the second attack on Essen on March l2, nc signs of operation could be observed at the Krupp Works. About 90.00O of Essen's 30O,000 population lost their homes or places of occupation and the gas supply still was inter- rupted on March g.
 The March 1 raid on Berlin caused such tremendous fires that engine companies were called in from Leipzig, 1l0 miles distant, 1t was revealed.
