IF HITLER CAN CHANGE NAH
CHURCH CAN CHANGE
PREJUDICE

NEW YORK, Feb. IL (ANP) DR..
Charles Young Trigg, minister OF
Salem Methodist Church. Harlem,
told the New York Methodist Prea-
cheers Forum meeting Monday
morning that if Hitler could
change the whole theology of mil
lions of people during his 10 yrs.
of leadership that it should be pos
sible for the churches to change
the race p~rejudices and abolish dis
examinations in a decade.
Said DR.. Trigg, II am sometimes
impatient with people who say we
must be long-suffering, who think
it will take a long time to correct
these injustices and that we must
be satisfied with slow progress.
If the dictators can quickly alter
longstanding attitudes for the
worse, Christians ought to be able
just as quickly to alter them for
the better"
Political demagogues were blam-
ed by the Harlem pastor for much
of the misunderstanding. "They
keep the fires BURNING" he said.

Navy Revomps BuiIdinq PIuns

Washington, Dec. 9-(UP)-- The Navy is now reshaping its ship building program to conform with the huge amphibious campaigns to be undertaken in the Pacific during the coming year.
 This fact became apparent today in the disclosure by Rear Admiral Edward L. Cochrane, chief of the Bureau of Ships, that the Navy now had program calling for construc- tion of 65,00O landing craft. It al- ready has built 10000, another 25,- 900 are on order, and authorization for 10000 is pending in Congress.
 To round out the amphibious pro- gram, the Navy also contemplates building 15a000 miscellaneous small craft, rubber boats, rafts and re- lated types.
 Although the program includes craft ranging from the 450-foot dock ship to amphibian tractors, Coch- rane said he was particualrdly in- terested in the so-called "Alligators'' craft which can operate as troop or supply carriers on water, and as tanks ashore. Their ability to func- tion with ease in swamps and jun gleS makes them especially useful for operations in the Pacific. Cochrane said many of the de- stroyer escorts-DE'S-now being built would see service in the Pa cific. Originally, these craft were intended to help beat the submarine menact in the Atlantic. The Navy expects to build 300 DE's this year 40 more than the 1943 goal.

 4-F In Draft

Newark, N. J., Dec. 9-iUP)-- Frank Sinatra reported after a physical examination at Newark in- duction center today that he has been classified 4-F, and hence will be able to continue his swoon croon- ing.
 I'm unhappy about it because I've been bragging to friends that I'd get through" the slender, dark haired singer said when he left the induction center shortly before 11:3O a. m. He said he was rejected be- cause of punctured ear drum.
 How his thousands of teen-agec girl admirers, who squeal and swoon at his theater and radio appear ances, would react to the news Sinatra had no way of knowing. For they had passed up their chance to mob him today when he appeared first at his local draft board In Jer- sey City, and again when he came to the induction center.
 Only a handful of newsmen, passersby and curious met him for his command service appearance, and not a one was from his coterie of admirers.
 Sinatra said that if he had been accepted, he would have preferred to serve in the Army or the Marine corps. He added that during his physical examination he was ad- vised by physicians to get more sleep and rest

WAC EnIistments Disoppointinq

Washington, Dec. 9.-(UP)-The Army has abandoned hopes that vol- untary enlistments can raise the women's army corps to anywhere near the desired size but at present has no intention of recommending the drafting of women, it was learned today.
 Officials said the army's position was this: There are thousands of jobs that women can perform as well as men and the army can low CT it's manpower calls on Selective Service to reflect the number of WAC volunteers. But, 1t was said. whether the nationa! interest would be better served by drafting women to ease the call on remaining men most of whom are fathers-is a question for the War Manpower Commission to decide.
 Women are not volunteering for the WAC nearly as rapidl yas some of Washington's war planners had hoped or the Army would have liked. Efforts to accelerate recruiting have brought some results. but not enough to fill more than fraction of the openings or to reduce substantially the number of men who must be drafted.

frankness" with, which the problems were discussed reflected the intens- ity of the Roosevelt Churchill ap- plication to the talks.
 However, they believed Mcnemen- cioglu and Inonu held their ground, preferring to await events in south Russia and the Balkans before con- mitting Turkey to a definite de- cision.
 "The Cairo conference has been one of the most important events of this stage of the war; Menemen- cioglu was quoted by the Ankara radio.
 "We returned from Cairo with the greatest satisfaction. We discussed every subject at Cairo. All stages of policy and of the war were examined.'
 Asked to what extent Turkey had come closer to war as a result of the Cairo conference, Menemen- cioglu said
 T already have stated that Turk ish foreign policy remains funda- mentally unchanged"
 He added that the Cairo meet ing could be interpreted as con- nected with the Anglo Turkish con- ference at Andanc, where Prime Minister Winston Churchill went after the Casablanca war council.
 Questioned as to how Turkey could aid Britain by remaining neu- tral, the foreign minister replied:
 Turkish aid to Britain has been possible only through Turkeys neu- trality.'
 He said no agreements were signed at Cairo.

Wor Contract Law Reviewed

Washington, Dec 9.-(UP)-Chair- man Walter George, D., Ga, said today his senate finance committee would conduct a close study of the war contract renegotiation law with view to repeating it outright or at least amending features found objectionable by contractors.
 The house already has written into the pending tax bill, now be- fore Georges committee, a provision to raise from $1O0,O0O to $50O,0O0 the amount of business that con- tractor must do annually to be- come subject to the renegotiation law, designed to recapture war profits considered excessive.
 Following protests by business men, both at the law and it's ad- ministration by government agen- cies, the committee ordered con- gressional tax experts to prepare an analysis of the act. George said this report would be the basis of his committees study.
 The pending revenue bill left the house calling for $2,148,000,000 in new taxes but the senate committee began revising it yesterday by chop ping $190,000, 900 off the total. Some STA, 100000 of the cut was achieved by nullifying house action doubl- ing third class postage rates and another $112,000000 was eliminated by reducing or eliminating other house-proposed boosts. These re- auctions together with other minor changes took the yield of the bill down to $1.950, 100000, still further from the Treasury's goal of $10,- 500,000.
 The senate committee approved all other house postage increases as follows. First class mail-from two cents an ounce to three cents; air mail-from six cents an ounce to eight cents; money orders-from the present rates of six to-22 cents an order up to 10-to-30 cents; regis tered mail-from IS cents-to-$1 an article up to 20 cents-to-$135; in- sured mail-fve- to-35 cents an arti- cle up to 10-to-70 cents, and COD. mail-12 cents-to-$1. 20 an article up to 24 cents-to-$2.40.
 The committee, which previously had accepted the house boost of distilled liquor taxes from $6 to $9 a gallon, also increased the tax drawback allowed non beverage al- cohol users from $5 to $6.
