 "Our armed forces are fighting desperately both in Europe and i'm the Pacific. and the need for more ammunition h increasing daily" the board said in a state ment made public by President Timothy M.

We are confident that Connecticut will do it's share, as it has been do- ing since long before Pearl Har- bOr"

Move Gains in Senate
For Full Training Of
youths in Combat
By J. A. OLEARY.

A move to require at least six
months of training for 18-year- old
draftees before they could be sent
into combat is gaining ground in the
Senate, as an amendment to the bill
to extend the life of the Selective
Service Act, which expires May IS.
Four members of the Military
Affairs Committee introduced the
amendment yesterday, to have 1t
ready whenever the draft extension
bill is taken up. They are Senators
Stewart of Tennessee and johnson
of Colorado, Democrats, and Rever-
comb of West Virginia and Wilson OF
Iowa, Republicans
Meanwhile, both the draft extern
sion and the nurse draft bills re-
manned sidetracked by Californias S
fight against the pending MexicCn
water treaty, and evidence contin-
ued to come to the surface that the
progress of the war in the next few
weeks will have some bearing on the
shape of both measures.
The Senate's refusal to pass a
compulsory job-control bill for civil
ian workers unquestionably has
weakened the chances of having
that body vote to draft young
women as nurses.
At the same time, the rapid march
of Allied armies across Germany
has caused some Senators to con-
cider nriya talv u,bet her eytapSiop

necessary.

Special Dispatch to The Star and

ShlSaBo Dnhy lNcWo
PARIS, April 6.-With the resig-
nation of Pierre Mendes- France as
Minister of National Economy and
the appointment of Rene Pleven to
the twofold job of finance and econ
omy, ends conflict of many months
between the Mendes-France school,
favoring radical reforms in French
economy, and the Pleven group, ad-
vocating conservative and classical
methods of reconstructing France.
Resistance groups have been wag-
ing a losing battle to initiate far
reaching economic reforms. Pleven s
appointment seems to mark their
final defeat.
Minister Of State Jules Jeanneney
submitted his resignation at the
same time as Mendes-France, but
was prevailed on by Gen. Charles
de Gaulle to remain. He split with
the government on the question of
the eligibility of former deputies
who voted with Marshal Henri
Philippe Petain for dissolution of
the French Parliament in 1910.
Jeanneney, former Senate presi-
dent who is now Gen. de Gaulle's
deputy, had wanted a jury, COM
posed of deputies who voted against
dissolution, to examine the cases of
all the deputies. He hoped in this
way to ascertain if some deputies
had not established records in the
resistance movement which could
be said to counteract their 1910 vot-
| ing record.

MARBURG, Germany, April g.
The Americans found a sterilization
list of persons of half-gypsy blood
in the office of GeStapo Secretary
Hermann here. Herr Hermann is
benevolent looking gentleman but
the citizens say he is one of the
toughest in the business.
Full-blooded gypsies were sent to
concentration camp with the Jews
But sterilization order came from
Berlin listing so men and women
of this university city. which is quite
a gypsy center, as gypsy halfbloods
and Herr Hermann carried it out
Due to some measure to Herr
Herrmann's zeal, the University of
Marburg, where Professionalism had
its intellectual birth four centuries
ago, was one of the first to accept
the Hitler doctrines.
Irish Girl Spokesman.
1t is still believed to be hotbed
of Naziism. It's classes we're open
when the Americans arrived. Spokes-
man for the students was red
headed Irish girl, bona fide citizen
of Fire, who has remained an Eng
lish teacher here throughout the
war.
The student body, normally about
5000, was greatly reduced during the
past year as students and younger
faculty members were forced into
the army. Only the medical school
has been operating fully. As in
America, medical students are ex-
empt under some circumstances
Members OF other departments say
that the medical school was a great
Stacker haven. So the government
was forced to limit students to 1000.
This was once a great center for
the study of physics and chemistry
but the laboratories were destroyed
by bombs year ago. The world
owes Marburg much, for here Jewish
Prof. Rehring discovered the first
dlphtheria serum. But the last
Jewish faculty member was fired in
1885. In the same year the pic
/ tureSqueneSs of the town ended
when the Nazis abolished dueling
and colorfully clad student corps,
Incorporating them all into the stu
dent bund.

House Member Attacked
For Criticizinq Halifax

Criticisms made by Representa-

homa, of a coyote hunt recently
staged as entertainment for LORD
and Lady Halifax during their visit
to Oklahoma, led to an attack on the
legislator in the House yesterday by
three of his colleagues, two from his
own State.
The Oklahoma Republican, who
was absent from Washington yeSter-
day, earlier had inserted in the
Congressional Record the statement
that II airplaneS were used in the
hunt causing much adverse criti-
ciSm because of the strict rationing
of gasoline among the citizens of
Oklahoma"
Representative Monroney. Demo-
crat, of Oklahoma, said Mr.
Schwabe's remarks constituted "a
cheap attempt at international mis-
chief-making"
Representative Johnson, also an
Oklahoma Democrat, told the House
the criticisms do not reflect the
sentiment of the people of our
country" and expressed the hope
that Lord and Lady Halifax will
forgive if not forget this attack upon
them"
Representative Hays, Democrat. OF
Arkansas, also expressed resentment
at what he called these vicious at
tackS."

BRETON Woods Program
'Unsound,' Bricker Says
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 6-John w
Bricker, Republican vice presidential
candidate in 1914, described the
Breton Woods International none
tary program as "unsound" for the
United States.
Addressing the Chamber of Com
merce of the State of New York
yesterday, the former Ohio Gov
ernor characterized the program as
an attempt to erect "a superstruc-
ture of stabilization upon a founda-
ton of unstabilized economies"
There is very little, if anything,
in the program to encourage the
participating countries to stabilize
their own economies" he said.
Rather, this Breton Woods pro-
posal extends an implied invitation
to the countries to defer coming to
grips with their economic problems. +"

Sterilization Order Found
In Nozis Office for so Gypsies

Some faculty members working
with the military government say
they never were convinced Nazis
and they are not proud of the uni
yersity's record against other great
German universities, which at least
made protest gestures over doc
trines forced down their throats
But Marburg was supine under Herr
Herrmann's lash
Only one Jew is left in Marburg-
the wife Of a German officer who
was thrown out of the army because
of her. She was allowed to remain
because Of her husbands influence,
but was not allowed to enter any
public place or 60 onto the street
after dark. Her husband said she
was subjected to great indignities by
persons trying to provoke an out
burst of temper to afford a good ex-
cuse for sending her to concen-
tration camp.
All the rest of the Jewish popula-
ton had been removed and are be-
lieved to have been executed. Many
Aryans also were removed. That
seemed to be the only punishment
Herr Hermann knew, If people
didn't like the concentration camp.
You know what a concentration
camp means in Germany" said one
citizen cooperating with the Amer
leans.
Many Marburg faculty members
apparently were degenerate. I was
billeted in the house OF one high
professor. His library was filled
with the filthiest pornographic lit
erature yet seen in Germany, al
though filthy books, which were
masterpieces of the printers art,
we're found in nearly every first
class home here.
Marburg was great center Of war
slave labor, especially of French and
Russian slaves. The French say
they were treated very badly,
starved and worked hard during the
first two years. But they got better
jobs and better food after the Rus
slams began to seize places in Ger
many. Now hundreds of these men
and women in town are behaving
excellently, considering their strong
revenge motive. The French are
especially invaluable to the military
government.

it is not beyond possibility that the
entire Selective Service Act may be
allowed to expire. Senator Hill,
Democrat, of Alabama, told re-
porters, however, that I'VE cannot
afford to relax our efforts for either
the Selective Service extension or
for the induction of vitally-needed
nurses at any point short of peace
on both the European and Pacific
fronts"
The amendment introduced yes
terday for thorough training OF
youthful draftees provides that nc
inductee under 10 could be ordered
into combat without at least six
months of training.
Senator Stewart said it was an
outgrowth of recent criticism Of the
policy of moving 18-year-olds into
battle zones as requirements soon
after their induction. When the
draft age was lowered to 18 in 1912
the Senate adopted an amendment
that no man under 20 could be sent
into combat with less than a year of
training, but it was eliminated in
conference with the House, after
military leaders pleaded that it
would complicate the handling of an
army of the size involved in this war
