 Await Unwary G

New York (CNS)-A warning against fy-by-night schools and colleges designed to relieve soldiers of the $500 tuition to which they are entitled under the CT Bill of Rights, has been sounded by lead ing educators.
 Other institutions, the educators declared, have raised their fees for the very purpose of clipping vet erans. GIs are therefore warned to beware of schools that are more in terested in $500 than in the veteran.

THE MAN IN ROOM NO. 9

The DROOP in No. 9 was dying, From injuries received from a fall, His supervisor was always trying, But he just wouldn't "get on the
 ball".
 His tools he would leave on the
 stand,
 And parts and rags strewn about, When he was corrected like a man, Like a child, he would only pout. With gasoline he would clean the
 part,
 The unsafe things he would laways
 do,
 Safe practices he would never start, Because he was just plain ''snafu'. To him safety was lot of bunk, He trusted everything to fate, The safety inspector was just a
 skunk,
 Poor guy, now it's too late, To work safely, for his luck played
 out,
 He won't do the job he talked
 about Men on the battle front are dying. To make our country safe for you Work safe, stay on the job, and
 keep trying, For them we must come through! Who was the DROOP in No. 9? Was it Jack, Jim, or Joe? For safety he didn't have time. This could have been you, you know His last words as he passed away Do your job the "safety-frst way" Don't be "snafu" like me and fall Let this be a lesson-"get on the ball".

GLIDER TO
 RESCUE }
 IN JUNGLE
Plans Made to Bring Sur ,viyors of Wrecked Plane
 from Shangri-La

HOLLANDIA, Dutch New Guinea, June g. = A glider expert who knows the jungle and it's strange tribesmen acted as aerial advisor today while paratroopers in the hidden valley of Shangri-la" pre- pared a dramatic rescue.
 The expert, Michael J. Leahy, a Royal Australian Air Force squad ron leader, probably will land the glider and remove the WAC and two Army airmen who survived a transport crash 28 days ago which killed score of other Army sight seers.
 Watched by giant, spear-armed natives, the paratroopers labored on the swampy strip in the fantas- tic valley 150 miles southwest of Hollandia. The paratroopers had brought the natives their first con- tact with the world outside.
 Nearby are the red and white pyramidal Army tents which house the surviving trio, two medical technicians, eight paratroopers and Capt. Cecil A. Walters, a native of Oregon, who has spent most of his life in the Philippines. Walters is the ground director.
 The men parachuted to attend the survivors and build the field where the glider will be sent in, then jerked into the air by a grab hook of a low-flying CAT.
 The trio of surviyors--WAC Cpl. Margaret Hastings, Oswego, N. Y; It. John B. McCollum, Trenton, Mo-; and Sgt. Kenneth w. Decker Kelso, Wash.-are being treated for injuries by parachuted medical sup plies and are in good condition.

BRETON TOOK
 BIG GAMBLE,
 MOVED GOLD

LONDON, June 9.-Britain moved virtually her entire gold supply from this island in the greatest gamble in financial history when a German invasion threatened, a Bank of England spokesman said today.
 Every type of ship, from tramps to luxury liners, some running through U-boat infested waters unescorted, carried the gold to secret hiding places in the far parts of the earth.
 Movements during the entire war from England and South Africa amounted roughly to $4,000, ,000, 900 worth of gold, with losses totaling hardly more than $20.000,000
 Some of the lost gold was later recovered after treasure-laden ships sank.
 Stores of gold were concentrated in naval bases and other strategic spots throughout the world-a tes- timonial that Prime Minister Churchill meant what he said when he asserted Britain would fight on even though the home islands fell to the Nazis.

DRAFT PLAN IS PROPOSED
 TO CONGRESS
Compulsory p edeefim e Program for 1rid Period
 of Five Years Given

WASHINGTON, June 9.--A com pulsory peacetime draft program for trial period of five years was recommended to Congress today by Edward c. Elliott, President of Purdue University.
 One of the few educators to sup port universal military training proposals during an entire week of public hearings, Elliott told the House Post-War Military Policy Committee.
 "The happenings of the present, day by day, afford little encour- agement for the removal of the stresses and strains of war con- ditions during the years immediate ly ahead.
 For the moment" he said, T have the conviction that this na- Cion must face the grim and real istic fact that conditions approxi- mating an enduring peace in the world are beyond early attainment human nature being what it is, the governments and the moralities of nations being what they are, and are likely to remain for years to come.
 While we have the task of dreaming and doing for peace, at the same time," he cautioned. we have the solemn and continuing obligation of being fully prepared to protect all that which is ours to protect"

WASHINGTON, June 9. = Rep. Rankin tD.-Miss.) put crimp in House plans for a summer vacation today by declaring he will fight a recess until Congress acts on a veterans aid program.
 Informal recesses frequently are taken by unanimous consent. Ob- jection by the Mississippian, Chair man of the Veterans Committee, could block them indefinitely.
 Rankin emphasized he will block a recess plan with a care-for- vet erans argument. This would put members in the uncomfortable posi- ton of appearing to oppose vet erans benefits if they vote for a recess.

Montgomery, Ward Will Take Issue 10 Highest
 Court in Land

CHICAGO, June 9.-The Govern ment's court battle with Montgoin- cry Ward and Company over seizure of the mail order house properties, declared legal by the U. s. Circuit Court of Appeals, appeared headed today to the U. s. Supreme Court for final decision.
 It was the company's next move in the controversy following yester- days ruling by the Court of Appeals upholding the late President Roose- velt's December 28 seizure order af- fecting company properties in seven cities W.e to l decision reversed Federal Judge Philip L. Sullivan's decision which held the seizure un- constitutional.
 Board Chairman Sewell L. Avery, principal figure in the labor dispute said the company will carry on it's fight to the high court.
 Avery, who tas maintained that the governments taking over of the properties was illegal, asserted that the Appeals Court decision means the closed shop. Certainly Congress has passed no law intended to im- pose the closed shop"
 Yesterdays majority opinion by Superior Judge Eva A. Evans and Judge Otto Kerner stressed that Wards is engaged in war produc- ton. In opposing the seizure the company said it was not engaged in wal production and was not sub- ject to regulations of the War Labor Disputes Act.

LONDON, June 9-Marshal Zhu- kov, an NEG broadcast from Moscow said today, believes that Adolf Hitler is hiding in Europe. possibly in Spain, and it is up to American and British troops to find him.
 The Russian war leader also said Hitler had married Eva Braun two days before Berlin fell
 Correspondent Robert Magidoff quoted zhukov as telling correspon- dents in Berlin:
 Marshal Zhukov said that his troops found number of corpses which might have been Hitler's, but he doubts it. Hitler probably wait ed until the last moment and then took off in plane that was osten- sibly held in constant readiness.
 And I think" said the Marshal, that Hitler is hiding somewhere in Europe, possibly with Gen. Franco. And now it's up to you British and Americans to find him."

NIp5 GIVEN NEW TOUGH
 OF ATTACK
Small War Plants Bombed -New Invasion Report
 ed-Suitide Charges
By LEONARD MILLIMAN Associated Press War Editor)

Associated Press War Editor) Japan's Parliament met in an un- heralded emergency wartime session today amid reports of new Allied invasions, breakthroughs and Super- fort devastation.
 The dismal picture confronting Nippons' legislators included:
 l. A division of Allied troops, probably Australian. was reported by Tokyo radio to be landing on l.a- buan Islands in the second invasion of the Borneo area.
 3. Chinese broke through to the Indo-China border, threatening to drive into the formerly French-gov- erned country which was one of Japan's easiest conquests.
 3. Between 100 and 15O Super forts unloaded explosives on aircraft plants in three Japanese towns as broadcasts admitted l,790000 have been left homeless by fire raids on Tokyo. Yokohama and Nagoya. ,
 4. Signs of decentralization and possible mutiny were seen among the Emperor's troops in the south ern Philippines.
 5. U. s. Marines and infantry men, supported by intense air, ar tillery and naval bombardmelits, were tightening death pockets on the Okinawa garrison already compress ed to disconnected three and IS square mile areas.
 Claim Warships Sunk
 The only cheering report for the Mikados rubber stamping parlia- mentarians came from Okinawa where Tokyo claimed three U. s. first line warships were sunk and five damaged in Kamikaze (suicide) air attacks Wednesday and Thurs day. Adm. Chester w. Nimitz an- nounced ST raiders were shot down. He said they damaged two small U. s. vessels, making 25 ships sunk and SO damaged in the entire Okin- ava operation.
 Tokyo said assault troops began landing Friday on Labuan Island. 100 miles across Borneo from Tara kan, which Australian and Dutch troops invaded May l. The uncon- firmed broadcasts said the invaders came from 50 ships supported by an unspecified number of cruisers and destroyers which began smelling La- buan Thursday.
 Labuan is off northwest Borneo at the entrance to Brunei Bay.
 Chinese Make Capture
 Tn their southward thrust down the Indo-C China corridor, Chinese troops captured the important high way tow nof Szelo and pressed on to Chungchingfu on the border.
 Today's unescorted B-29 raids full filled Tokyo's expectations that the attacks would be extended to small towns Targets include a major naval fighter plane plant at Naruo, a town of less than 5000; the Kawa- saki aircraft plant at Akashi which was 38 per cent knocked out last January; and a former watch fac tory at Nagoya which was converted to making aircraft engine plants. All three cities are on the south west coast of Honshu. main island of Japan.
 Tokyo radios report that 1.79O,- 900 persons have been burned out of nearly 500,000 homes in Tokyo. Yo- kohama and Nagoya represented a slight reduction from previous fig ures.
 Premier Kaptaro Suzuki informed the Diet tParliament that these people were rebuilding underground and that his government planned to fight the war out to the last.
