The proposal of Gen. Lewis B
Hershey, the Nations draft director,
that top-ranking students in high
schools and colleges be exempt from
military training is drawing mount
ing tide of resentment around the
country, as well it should.
The generals theory presumably
is that the Nations best brains, as
measured in terms Of scholastic rank
ings in the high schools and colleges,
should not be subjected to the haz-
yards Of military life.
The proposal, of course, is a slur
on the American armed services by
conveying the idea that only second
rate brain power should be drafted
for military service.
The plan is wrong in principle and
wrong in application. 1t is contrary
to American principles of democracy
that segment of our draft-age peo-
pie should be exempted from service
in the country's Armed Forces be-
cause of scholastic attainment. And
it is wrong to assume that the bright
boys of the classroom are necessarily
the only hope of the Nation for lead
ership in the future. An examination
of American history will reveal that

views that have provoked a storm in Washington, Paris, London and other western capitals.
 British Viewpoint
 In London, a foreign office spokes- man said Britain has expressed privately to the United States it's concern over the MacArthur row.
 Our viewpoint has been made known through our ambassador, Sir Oliver Franks, through normal con- versations," the spokesman said.
 He insisted it was not formal protest - usually stern measure.
 No Drastic Action
 In Washington the White House maintained silence on any possible presidential rebuke that might be planned for the general. One highly placed congressional source said no drastic action against Macarthur was in immediate prospect.
 While administration supporters generally increased their criticism of Macarthur for urging use of Chaing Kai-Shek's troops, Rep. Joe Martin of Massachusetts, the House Republican leader, supported a move to bring Macarthur home to report personally to Congress on the Pacific situation.
 In Tokyo, Rep. O. K. Armstrong (R-Mo) told the American Cham Der of Commerce he did not think MacArthur exceeded military auth ority in his recent policy statements. He added that any action to recall the general "at this time would be the greatest victory for Communion since the fall of China"

 The Supreme Court rejected the interest claim in a brief, unsigned opinion. Justice Jackson took nc part in the case, making the courts vote 8-0
 The unsigned opinion said it is the traditional rule that interest on claims against the United States cannot be recovered fin the ab- sence of an express provision to the contrary in the relevant statute or contract"
 In other decisions:
 l. The court agreed to step into the governments thus far unsuc- cessful efforts to outlaw medical and hospital insurance plans operated exclusively by doctors societies.
 The Justice Department asked the high tribunal to review lower courts finding that such plans do not violate antitrust laws.
 The test case was brought in Ore gon in 1948 against the Oregon Physicians Service, it's sponsor, Ore- gon State Medical Society affiliated county societies and a number of doctor members.
 The court unanimously struck down the conviction of two Florida Negroes sentenced to die for the rape of white girl.
 Two justices protested that the case stirred deep racial feelings in the area and that this was lex plotted to the limit by the press"
 Justice Jackson wrote that the court majority had reversed the con- victions because Negroes were dis criminated against in the selection of a trial jury.

OUT IN ln1ERE5T CASE BEFORE hIGH COURT

WASHINGTON. April 10 -lR- The Supreme Court has rejected the claim of various bands of Oregon Indians to s14,255.8l6 interest on a $3,128,900 award made to them for tribal lands taken by the United States.
 The award was made by the U. s. Court of Claims here. which said the Indians were entitled to interest on the amount from the year 1855
 The Justice Department contested the interest payment, in an appeal to the Supreme Court. The depart ment said other Indian cases ex- pected to be filed in the claims court conceivably could raise total claims of more than s14.O0O, 100000. The

 AS RESULT, FLOODS
By Associated Press

Flood waters spilled out over thousands of acres of land in a three-state midwest area today, making more than l2,O00 persons homeless.
 Property damage mounted to an estimated $3,000,0O0.
 Fed by spring rains and thaws, the swollen rivers and streams over flowed into several communities in Minnesota, Iowa and South Dakota The surging waters covered rich farm land, highways and railroads.
 The Red Cross and National Guardsmen were on the scene in many of the flood-stricken areas.
 The Minnesota River in western and southern Minnesota was caus- ing the major damage. Some 5000 persons have been forced from their homes in Mankato, Minn., other residents along the 1owlands areas of the turbulent stream were ready to evacuate.

administrator, explained to the House Subcommittee on Mining last week that organization work and consultations with other agencies on policy decisions used up most of the seven months since the Defense Production Act was adopted by Con gress.
 Committee members, critical of seeming delays" were assured however that things will move muc. faster in the immediate future.
 Financial assistance for explora- ton, the only program administered directly by DINA, is expected to ge under way shortly. Within a s10,' O0o,O0O limitation, the goyernmen will make individual contracts tt pay 50 to 90 per cent of the cost of prospecting for new domestic sources of metals and minerals on the strategic list.
 IypeS OI ASslStduCc
 Direct government loans for plan expansion, working capital and pro- duction probably will be the last of the various authorized types of as- sistance to be put into operation.
 The reasons are twofold:
 1. The Defense Production Ac stresses that expansion of produc- ton must be carried out as mucl. as possible by private interests.
 2. Loan transactions require more careful scrutiny for protection of government funds than other as- sistance programs.
 However. the House committee was told that it may become neces- sary and desirable for the govern nrent to make loans that private banks are not willing to consider.
 In all matters except exploration contracts, the DINA will review ap- plications and certify their neces- sity to other agencies for final de- cision.
 Applications for exploration as- sistance may be submitted on forms to be provided to the Defense Min erals Administration in Washington or to the nearest DINA field exc cutive officer. Addresses of the field offices and the areas served include;
