Army Warns Of Delay
In Sole Survivor Cases

Failure of families to include
sufficient information when they re-
quest noncombat service for their
sole surviving son in the service in
accordance with the policy recently
adopted by the Army, is causing
considerable delay in expediting
these transfers, the War Department
said yesterday.
AS much as 10 days may be lost in
corresponding to collect the infor-
nation necessary before any action
can be initiated, parents were
warned.
To assure speedy handling of all
cases, requests should be directed to
the Adjutant General, Munitions
Building, Washington. The request
should include the full names of the
sons killed or missing in service,
their Army or Navy serial numbers,
the full name and serial number of
the sole surviving son, and a state
ment that the son in question is the
sole surviving son.
The new War Department policy
provides for returning to or retaining
in the continental United States the
sole surviving son of a family in
cases where two or more sons have
been lost. An exception is made in
the case of surviving son engaged
in nonhazardous duty overseas.
Each case, however, will be decided
upon its individual merits.

'Conciliafory Diplomacy
Held Key 10 World Peace

"Conciliatory diplomacy" was Of
fered as the key to world peace last
night by Jacob Viner, professor
Of economics at the University OF
Chicago, who spoke on the "Or-
ganizing for Peace" series of the
Agriculture Departments graduate
school in the Agriculture Building
auditorium.
Mr.. Viner, discussing economic
foundations of durable peace, said
elimination of trade barriers would
not help as much as many people
think because 1t might create
enmity such as that stirred up by
Britain's free trade policy in the
10Th century.
He said one danger to peace
would be "25 diplomacy" by which
Britain would be forced to balance
the wishes of the United States
and Russia. He said it would be
much more difiicult to evolve a
lasting peace at the close of this
war then 1t was at the end of the
last war when there were seven
world powers.
