DeIGIUGre ROTC Students
Are Appraised Of
Draft Status
CONTINUED from nrst paRel

nationwide program affecting all
ROTC installations The Army
will defer 118,6O0 students in
ROTC and Air-ROTC courses at
231 colleges.
In order to qualify among the
191 to be named on the deferred"
list between their freshman and
sophomore years, freshman ROTC
students must satisfactorily pass a
competitive examination, be ap-
proved by a joint military-academ-
ic committee, and be screened by
the military department.
There will be no testing pro-
gram for the present sophomore
class, but all of it's members indi-
eating a desire to continue in the
advanced ROTC training will be
subjected to a general physical ex-
animation in the spring, Colonel
PendletOn said. Formerly, the ply
steals were given in the fall of the
students junior year.
The 118 prospective junior cadet
officers will be by far the largest
group ever to participate. There
now are AZ cadet officers in the
present junior class, and only
about 25 in the senior class.
The Selective Service established
policy defers all students during
any school year for which they are
enrolled Therefore, present de-
ferments will lapse next June ex-

through the new quotas are ex-

that such deferrals were intended
to insure selection Of the best

Russians Delay Death

Under occupation rules the death

This was relatively simple up to
last July, when the Russians walk

Failure to pass qualifying ex-

he said, will be reasons for can

Lady Astor Raps
DE Valera IN Talk
ITO Garden GroHb
Bv Frances Lide

Declaring she has heard a "lot Of
lies" about Great Britain during her
current visit to this country, Lady
Astor yesterday accused Eamon De
Valera of having brought mouth
full when he was here the other
day"
The Virginia-bor viscounteSs re-
ferred scornfully to the position Of
the former Prime Minister of Ire
land during the last war while
your boys were being killed" and
complained he had been received
here like an emperor" She added
that she herself got no such recep-
ton. And I've done lot more for
your boys than he did," she declared.
Her attack against Mr.. De Valera,
who recently visited the United
States, came during an address be-
fore the Capital Division of the
Womanis National Farm and Gar
den Association at its annual benefit
luncheon at the Mayflower Hotel.
The viscountess also precipitated
a walk out" on the latter part of
her address by Mrs. Perle Mesta,
well-known Washington hostess,
who said she resented the speakers
criticisms" Of this country.
Mrs, Mesta's objections included
what She termed Lady Astor's at
tacks on our government" and her
criticism of radio commercials and
the type of advertising carried in
the American press.
Lady Astor asserted during her
speech that, while the United States
Is a great country, its form of gov
ernment is not as democratic as
Great Britain's, and suggested that
America might borrow" few ideas
from her British cousins.
Deploring the character Of Amer
lean advertising, she said it was de-
voted for the most part to beauty,
luxury, drinking and smoking. Per-
sons coming to this country for the
first time would gather from the
ADS that "the only things we think
OF are women and food" she de-
clared.
In concluding her address, Lady
Astor made special plea for the
admission of displaced persons to
this country and called it "outra-
geous" that the United States has
taken in only 10000 while Britain
has admitted 100000.
She also declared that Jewish
| propaganda" for the admission of
the DPS has given the impression
they were all Jews.
Mrs. Mesta, who left during this
discussion, said today that she also
resented Lady Astor's criticisms ON
"the Jewish question"
She's too cocky to suit me-" Mrs.
Mesta added. II don't think she's
in this country enough to know
what she's talking about"
| Between 600 and TOO members and
guests attended the luncheon, which
included brief talk by Sir John
Orr, director general of the Food
and Agriculture Organization.
| Mrs. Robert D. Maltby is presi-
dent of the association and Miss
