The recruiting picture here was
duplicated in many cities today as
hundreds of 49, year old youths
sought to enlist for one year of
service. The new peacetime draft
law provides that 161 ZOO youths of
that age can be accepted for one
year of training. They would not
be subject to later drafting for 81
months, but after finishing the year
of training in the regular forces in
this country they would have to go
into the reserves for six years.
Recruiting Offices in New York
City opened an hour earlier than
usual to handle applications. The
line before the Navy Office had 299.
while the Army line was almost as
long. Some of the youths had been
there since 1:30 am.
About 500 applicants arrived ahead

Andre Marie, of Radical

In Schumun Cabinet
by the Associated Press

PARIS, July 21.-Andre Marie,
Radical Socialist (conserva-

has been asked to form a new
French government.
Mr.. Marie, 81, was minister OF
justice in Premier Robert Schumans
cabinet which resigned Monday in
defeat, opposing $40,000,OO0 cut in
the defense bill.
His emergence marked swing to
the right. He still is suffering ef-
fects of starvation in the German
Buchenwald concentration\camp.
Immediately after talking with
President Vincent Auriol, he went to
the Ministry of Justice to consult
political leaders.
He must secure a parliamentary
majority to attain the Office. 1t was

ment, Radical Socialists and Social
lists which toppled the Schuman gov
ernment.
The president spent the night at
his summer home at Rambouillet
and returned to Paris this morning
He began his conversations immedi-
ately.
The system OF parliamentary
logic as practiced before the wal
would appear to indicate that the
new cabinet would be composed OF
Communists, Socialists and Radical
Socialists. However, neither the
Socialists nor the Radicals trust the
Communists, and most of them are
resolved to oppose letting the Com
munists share power again.
Mr.. Schuman's government die
not include Communists. 1t was
made up of Radicals and Socialists
as well as his own Popular Repub-
licans. 1t quit when the Socialists

Marshall Minimizes
Danger 10 U. 5. From
U. n. foreign Agents
No Specific Cuse Roised
Of Any Action Outside
Their Duties, He Says

Secretary Of State Marshall
said today that the United
States does not appear to be
suffering any serious dangers
from the presence in this coun-
try of what other State Depart

subversive foreign agents at
tached to the United Nations
and other international organi-
cations.
His comment came at news con-
ference in response to questions
about testimony given by State De-
partment witnesses at a Senate
Judiciary Subcommittee staff in
quiry into the immigration system
AS a result of the testimony that
several hundred" subversive agents
gained entry into this country
through the U. NJ or similar inter-
national agencies, committee Off
cials indicated today that tighter
laws to handle the situation may
be considered at the special session
of Congress starting next week.
Gen. Marshall said there has not
been raised a specific case of any
individual attached to such agen-
cies who has engaged, outside his
official acts, in actions against the
security of this country.
No Serious Danger.
Therefore, he said, it would not
appear that the country is suffering
any serious dangers from the pres
ence in the U. N. setup of indi-
viduals whose theological and other
views are contrary to ours.
He pointed out that the U.N
headquarters was established in New
York at Americas invitation through
resolution that passed Congress
unanimously, and apparently with
the complete support Of the Ameri-
can people. ...
There are legal provisions, he
added, for actions by this Govern

immunities granted individuals OF
other countries coming here in con-

Tax-Exempt Agencies
Fear DE- Law Change
Threatens Status
Strict Interpretation
Of Anti-Lobbyine Clause
Could Enforce Silence

A revision of the District in
come tax law of 1947, under
which private charitable and
educational institutions could
lose their tax-exempt status for
any activities designed to influ-
ence legislation, was worrying
local agencies today.
Under 1912 amendment to the
Income Tax Act of 1899, these
agencies could remain tax exempt
so long as mo substantial part" of
their activities included influencing
legislation.
The District Revenue Act Of 1s47
however, dropped out the word Sub
stantial."
1t was learned today that welfare
and educational institution officials
fear a strict interpretation of the
language as it now stands could
no longer testify voluntarily before
congressional committees.

District officials said they could
not explain why the change had
been made, but indicated it would
not prohibit testimony before con-
gressional committees by oficials OF
the agencies.
Agency officials, however. were
hoping for ruling to clarity their
status.
A strict Interpretation and en-
forcement of the statute would put
big golden crown on the status
quo" so far as local welfare activi-
ties are concerned. Mrs. Catharine
H. Norton, executive secretary of the
Council of Social Agencies, declared
mo social agency does what II

to bring before the public fact.

she said.
Mrs Norton said she felt If vel
fare groups were kept silent as tt
what they found to be the existing
conditions and needs in the city, /
would mean no movement could b

A strict Interpretation, accordin,
to an attorney member of the in

hints on the care Of fox scarves and
coats especially for G. B. Since my
husbands parents have been in the
fox raising business I hope I may
help some neighbors!
First: A fox pelt will shed even
though the best Of care Is given 1t
after purchase. The fault, many,
many times lies in the tanning pro-
cess given the raw pelt and nothing
on earth will stop its shedding.
Second: A fox pelt should never
be brushed even with the hand as
this burns" the fur. e.,
Third: Some care hints are as
follows: To smooth the fur in place,
hang in the open air, then give q
vigorous shake to the pelt by holding
it with head in hand and giving a
quick jerk at the wrist. Do not store
in warm closet. I have my scarf

assemble closets and I keep a small

WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine Lowman

Rather than chicken in every
pot, my spring motto is curve in
every bulge. There is one under
that fatty deposit, waiting to be
discovered through exercise. Weight
distribution Is Influenced by our
glandular makeup but it also falls
under the spell of special exercise.
Many times in my classes I have
watched a pad on the abdomen,
thighs or a shelf-like hip line dis
appear while lovely contour became
noticeable.
There is really nothing that gives
a woman's ego such boost as re-
possession of a girlish figure; the
recovery of that sleek, slim and
firm feeling, after months or years
of self-consciousness and discom-
fort because of rolls and bulges.
If you wish to become a part Of
the spring mood and slim down for
the new clothes, decide that you will
take only few exercises daily but
do those without procrastination.
Todays exercise is reducing to
the abdomen and waist: Lie on
your back with your legs straight
and your arms resting on the floor
overhead. Keep your arms in this
position as you bend both knees up
close to the abdomen Straighten
the knees and return the legs to the
f1oor-but place them on the floor
as far toward the right as you can.
Again, bend your knees up close to
your abdomen. This time, when you
straighten your legs, place them on
the floor as far to the left as you
can. Do not roll over onto your
side. Remain few seconds in the
stretched out position, you will feel
the pull through the torso. Con-
tinue, alternating right and left.
Keep your head on the floor
throughout the exercise.
This week I am offering you my
leaflet No S, Combination Exer-
cises," each one of which does two
or more nice things to your figure.
If you wish to have it send a
stamped, self addressed envelope
with your request to Josephine Low
