in their boys was highly necessary.
 He pointed out that the boys of the civilian conservation corps did not have military training, but ben efitted greatly nevertheless, and that in case of war we would have a much larger percentage of boys who could defend their country.
 Told that some factions wanted to carry out the training rcogram in the National Guard in periods of two or three months year or in weekly drill periods, the President said flatly it will not work.
 Meanwhile, Catholic church and peace organization officials went on record against peacetime conscrip- tion.
 The annual assembly of Catholic ArchbishopS and Bishops adopted a resolution opposing early enact ment of permanent conscription. They maintained that consideration of the problem should walt until after the war so clearer picture of the international situation could be obtained and the views of men at the front expressed.
 Five peace organizations, the fel- lowship of reconciliation, national council for the prevention of war, war registers league, women's com- mittee to oppose conScription and thhe women'S international league for peace and freedom, opposed permanent conscription on religious, practical and constitutional grounds.

Sweden Says Nozis PIon
Continued from Page D


 Large numbers of specially-train- ed submarine staff officers reached Norway recently, the dispatch add ed, while naval attaches returning to Berlin were quoted as saying:
 Warning
 Look out for our new submarine offensive. They'll be super-offensives that will take everyone by surprise. " Though only a sn'sll number of submarines so far have been equip ped to launch robot bombs, the dis patch said, the substantial number of missiles which they could fire would make the hazardous trans Atlantic voyage worth while.
 The dispatch said the submarines and ships would operate consider able distance offshore. The V-1 bombs used by the Germans against Britain were believed to have an extreme range of 200 to 25O miles, but this could be increased by en- larging the fuel capacity. They carry a ton of explosives.
 The stock holm correspondent claimed to have ''first-hand know ledge" that the Germans had fit- ted vessels of the Westfalen class to fire a large number of robot bombs.
 (Lloyd's register of shipping lists the Westfalen as a 5,367-ton air plane service ship"

was staying, said he had told them he was sure it was something minor.
 Dr. Belt listed cause of death as cerebral hemorrhage from the mid- dle meningeal artery.
 Carter got his first newspaper job on the London Daily Mail after serving in the R.A,F. in World War I.
 He came to the United States in 1920 and his newspaper career took him to the Tulsa, Okla, Wolrd, the Mexico City Excelsior, the Philadel- phia Evening Bulletin and the Philadelphia Daily News.
 Then, still as reporter. he got the chance to broadcast from the scene of the Lindberg Kidnapping and his radio career began. At the time he was employed by Phila-. delphia paper.
 His clipped, British accent i'm mediately won him public favor as a distinctive and understandable. commentator.
 Garter was signed by Philco Radio and Television Crop. shortly after his success on the Lindbergh kid naping story and he stayed with the company until 1888. He returned t0' the air in 1940 and at the time of his death had been making daily broadcasts from Hollywood.
 Carter was divorced from Beatrice O. H. Carter in 1941 and had mar ried Paula Nicol last year. He had two children by his first wife.

Downpours Slow Up
 Offensive On Leyte
ccOntinued from Page D

New Guinea area were heading in their direction.
 American landing parties on both islands were small, and only slight opposition was encountered.
 Macarthur said the American 24th and 1st cavalry divisions on L,eyte were frightening their grip on perhaps 5000 Japanese troops in the Limon area of northwest Leyte in the Central Philippines, an in- dication that encirclement of 8 re- inforced enemy regiment had been completed.
 It was believed that advance ele- ments of the two divisions, pushing down either side of the enemy reg iment holding the Limon end of the Ormoc Corridor, had effected a junction near Tolibaw, two and a half miles south of Limon.
 William c. Wilson, United Press War Correspondent with the 24th division, said the American grip on the reigment already was fairly tight" and he doubted that any considerable number of the trapped enemy could infiltrate through the lines and escape.
 Wilson said the 24th division ad- vanced only about 1000 yards Tues day night and Wednesday in its frontal assault along the Limon-Or- moo highway, largely because of heavy tropical rains. However, the troops counted another 558 enemy dead.
 East and northeast of Ormoc, 20 miles south of Limon, other Am- erican forces consolidated their po- sitions in the central mountain range from Mt. Minoro to Mt. Mamban and poured destructive ar- tillery fire into the Ornloc corridor
