On Deferments

 Washington, March 15.-CUP)- The House Military Affairs Commit tee resumed hearings on draft de- fermentS today with the possible in- tention of recommending legislation to ban all defermentS for registrants under 26.
 Mai. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, Sel- ective Service director, took step --l this direction last night by direct ing local draft boards to refuse to defer men in the 1925 age bracket unless it was recommended by state or national headquarters.
 Chairman John M. Costello, D., Cal, of a military affairs sub-com- mitte on refermentS announced that Col. Francis V. Kessling, Hershey'S congressional liaison officer, would be called to testify, and Chairman Andrew J. May, D., Ky, of the full committee said he may introduce bill prohibiting deferments for "any man between IS and 26."
 Citing reports that War ManpoWer Chief Paul V. McNutt and War Production Board Chairman Donald M. Nelson were alarmed over the frightened deferment policy toward young men in industry, May said ne would attempt to forestall any ef- fort to defer non-fathers If 1t meant drafting of more fathers.
 Apparently the idea is to keep these young non-fathers in indus try and put the older men-the fathers-into uniform" May said.

More Steps
 Curb Fire

London, March IS. (UP)-Fur- ther steps to prevent leakage of news to the enemy through Fire were considered today as plans were drawn to isolate the country if it is deemed necessary to protect thu Allied forces stationed in Britain.
 Among meaureS examined py Al. lied officials were proposals to close the entire border between Fire and North Ireland with guards, police and troops patroling the frontier, and the severance of all telephone and telegraph lines between Fire and the outside world passing through Britain and North Ireland.
 The nature of the suggested re- strictions was first hinted by Prime Minister Churchill yesterday when he told Commons that the Allies intend to isolate Fire completely to prevent invasion secrets from leak- ing to the Axis. He described treesei restrictions between Britain and Ireland as only the first step" to- ward quarantining Fire from the rest of the world.

Armistice Hope Grows Dimmer
BY HUBERT UXKULL

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Helsinki, March 15-(UP)-Pre- mier Edwin Linkomies is expected to tell the Finnish parliament at a secret meeting beginning at D. m. today that the government sees no chance to negotiate with Russia on the basis of her six-point peace pro- posal.
 The government was believed al- ready to have reached a negative decision. The Riksdag, Finland's s parliament, is expected to approve the action, leaving practically no hope for further armistice negotia- tions with the Soviets.
 The Russians are believed to ex- pect a definite answer before mid- night Saturday. After that, hos tilities may be resumed on a full scale at any moment.
 Finland also is most apprehensive that the United States will break off diplomatic relations with her as soon as the collapse of the Russo Finnish peace talks is definite. There is reason to assume that these apprehensions are not un- founded.
 A Helsinki dispatch said reports that Russia had given Finland six more days in which to accept the six provisions laid down by the So- viets for an armistice were mot 100 per cent correct, but not far from the truth"

BY HARRISON SALISBURY

ID kkfAAeks40OGN 6EA1A0DOASA United Press Staff COrreSpOndent) Moscow, March 15-(UP)-Gen. Rodion Y. Malinovsky's army of the Ukraine carried battle of annihil- ation against several trapped Ger man divisions into the mop-up stage today, steadily increasing the Nazi losses now at more than 14,O0O men killed or captured.
 Field dispatches predicting early Soviet victory over the German divisions encircled north of Kher- son said the .Staping out of resist ance in the pocket probably would make untenable the Nazi position at nearby Nikoalev, last major German-held Black sea port east of Odessa.
 Repeated German armored coun- ter-attacks failed to break the So- viet ring, and the fate of the di- visions as well as of Nikolaev ap- peared in the balance.
 Closely following the pattern of the encirclement and annihilation of 10 German divisions west of Cherk- asi last month, the new envelop- ment emphasized that Marshal Fritz Won Mannstein's insistence on try ing to hold his lines in the Ukraine will cost him heavy percentage of his forces.
 The German divisions were trap ped in a pocket of some 300 square miles, resting on the west bank of the Ingulets River between Berez- negovataya on the north and Sne- girevka on the south, extending westward to Novo AleXandrovka and Yakino.
