Marine Records Fail
Observation-Disclosures as
Wounded in Combat
By WiIIiom A. MiIIeu

Marine Corps casualty lists
bear no mention of an Earl J.
Mcfarland ever having been
wounded in combat, The Star
learned last night, despite the
convicted slayer's statement in
Knoxville, Tenn, that he was
twice wounded while serving
with the 1st Marine Division.
1t is known that Mcfarland
was in action with the division
at Tulagi, Guadalcanal and New
Britain but details of his mill
tary service could not be
checked. A Marine Corps
spokesman said McFarland's
military service record book and
papers pertaining to his enlist
ment are locked up in a safe at
Marine Corps headquarters with
orders that they not be shown
to anyone.

500 Discharge Poy Advance
Offered Regular Army EnIistees

During that interval, the inductee
can be approached by an enlistment
officer for the Regular Army. This
officer, explains that the inductee is
in for the duration and six months
thereafter, unless sooner discharged
by competent authority"
The tnductee is further reminded
that Congress has not yet defined
the end of the war and that the
inductee's term Is therefor indefinite,
but that by enlisting in the Regular
Army, his term of duty will be a
definite 18 months.
The inductee also Is told that If
he signs up for the Regular Army
he can get in advance 500 of the
maximum $500 mastering out pay
eventually due him.
II the inductee wants to get into
the Regulars, he can then be dis
charged from the Army of the
United States by the Regular Army
enlisting officer, and at once be en-
listed for the regular branch.
Whether the new soldier takes his
500 advance mastering out pay is
purely optional.

Draftees now have the option Of
signing up with the Regular Army
and getting 500 Of their mastering
out pay in advance, the War De-
partment said last night.
A spokesman who said the prac-
tice has been ruled legal and not
Objectionable" said it works this
way:
Until he has received a notice Of
induction from his draft board, the
prospective draftee can be ap-
preached by an enlistment officer
and sought for the Regular Army.
After he gets his notice to report
for induction, no attempt to enlist
him can be made.
Once he has been sworn into the
Army OF the United States (which
is not the regular branch), q period
of several hours elapses at the in
duction center before the new in
ductee is assigned to some unit In

Knoxville Minister
Says Mcfarland Made
First Prayer in Cell

A Knoxville Methodist minister,
who went to Earl j. McFarland's s
cell in the Tennessee city yesterday
at the convicted killers request and
spent Is minutes talking and pray
ing with him, told The Star last
night Mcfarland turned to God
and asked forgiveness of his sins"
for the first time in his life.
The Rev. r. o. Eller, pastor of
the Central Methodist Church
largest community in Knoxville
said Mcfarland was not downcast
when the interview took place. The
Rev. Mr.. Eller, who said he talked
to the former marine with two sets
OF steel bars between them, gave this
account of his talk with Mcfarland: !:
Have you ever belonged to a
church, Earl?"
mo, sir"
Ready to Pray Now.
do you believe God can save you
from your sins?"
"Yes, I believe He could"
Have you ever prayed to the
Lord, Earl?"
mo sir. I've always been drinking
and carousing and I never thought
much about it before"
you know that your life is almost
over, Earl. Are you willing to pray
with me now?"
"Yes, / am"
"You ought to pray and talk to
God often about forgiveness of your
sins, Earl. You know that. don't
you?"
Eyes, I know it and I will"
Prayed for Several Minutes.
"The good theft on the cross at
the right hand side of the Lord on
Calvary repented his sins at the last
and God saved him. Jesus Christ
had the power to save him and he
can save you from your sins, too.
"1f you pray sincerely, Earl, not
because you are going to die but
because you want Him to forgive
you, He will. Now, are you ready to
pray with me?"
"Yes, I am" the minister said
Mcfarland replied.
The Rev. Mr.. Eller said, IT prayed
with him for several minutes and
tried to direct his mind toward God
1t was the first time a Minister of
the Lord had ever spoken with him,
Mcfarland told me.
When said Amen I raised my
head and looked at him. He had a
look in his eyes you seldom see in
men. Serene and calm.
Then, just before I left, he said
to me, Thank you. I appreciate
that. I'm glad you were kind
enough to come to me-"
