AS soon as daylight permitted,
Allied Iarplanes rushed into the

estimated they killed or wounded

The Communists used no planes

Withdrawals Termed Limited.
A United States 9Th Army

falling far short of acceptance of
the American British French call
for a conference on wide range
of world issues.
State Department Press Officer
Michael J. McDermott said TODAY
the Russian reply was delivered to
Western Ambassadors in Moscow
yesterday and that ''the text is be-
ing studied" He said the text
would not be released here.
British More Optimistic.
London dispatches quoted diplo-
matte sources there as speaking of
the Soviet note as an acceptance
OF the Western suggestion. This
was possibly an indication that
British officials took a more opti-
mistic view of the note than did
United States officials.
Russia opened the current series
of notes on November 3 with a pro-
posal that the Big -Four Council of
Foreign Ministers, which has not
met for several years, should be
convened to discuss German rear
imament.
The Western powers regarded
this move as an effort by Moscow
to block their plans for using Ger
man troops in defense of Western
Europe.
Note Called Disappointing.
In mid-December the Western
Big Three, after the meeting of
their foreign ministers in Brus-
sells, gave Russia counter
proposal. They suggested that
any Big Four talks, to be useful
now, would have to cover a wide
range of issues from which pres
ent world tensions arise.
American officials have thought
that the Russians might regard
this meeting favorably.
Russia's new note was described
here as disappointing and as lack
ing in any expression of desire to
find ways to reach agreement
which could relieve international
tensions.

Late Blight
Spreading In State

According to reports from the
plant pathologists in the Univer-
sity of Maryland Botany Depart
ment, late blight has reached up
the Eastern Shore and has begun
to spread deeper into the state. DR..
L. O. Weaver found it spread thor
oughly through Hartford County
unsprayed tomato fields in a visit
there last week.
He says that showers and heavy
dews favor the disease and make
it spread rapidly. Farmers who
have used regular spray program
have been successful in controlling
late blight.
Here are the recommendations
for late blight control-use copper,
bordeaux, parzate, or dithane
sprays, at g. to Today intervals,
more often in regions where late
blight is a real threat. In infect
ed fields spray at weekly intervals,
suggest the patholog1sts.
The dithane sprays are recon-
mended for control of stemphyli-
UNI, or gray leaf spot. This dis
ease has been reported on the
Eastern Shore.
For more details on spray rec
concentrations see your county
agent and secure Fact Sheet 81
from him. Fact Sheet 81 is en-
titled "Field Control of Tomato
Diseases and Insects"

Selective Service
Explains Rulings
For Deferments

Colonel Henry C. Stanwood,
Director of Selective Service for
Maryland, pointed out today that
those college students who nave
failed to meet the class standing
or test grade criteria for defer
ment as students and who enroll
in colleges can be called out of
college for induction if their in
duction has already been post
poned once under statutory pro-
visions. This is providing, of
course, that their Local Board
reach their proper Selective Serv-
ice number.
Colonel Stanwood explained that
the Selective Service Act of 1915.
as amended. provided that any per-
son who was ordered to report for
induction, while satisfactorily pur-
suing a full-time course of instruc-
ton at a college, university or SIM
liar institution of learning, need
only present the facts to his Local
Board and his induction would be
postponed until the end of the
academic year or until he ceased
to make satisfactory grades. Tn
der the 1948 Act he could receive
such postponements successfully
that it, he would not be indicted
during any academic year after
he had started it. This had the
effect of protecting most college
students against induction except
during summer vacation months.
THE recently enacted Universal
Military Training and Service Act,
which amended the Selective Ser
! vice Act of 1913, contains a some
what similar provision regarding
students, but with two very i'm
portant changes" Colonel STAN
wood said. Under the new Act,
registrant will be DEFERRED
instead of POSTPONED until the
end of his academic year AND he
will be restricted to only one such
mandatory deferment as provided
by the Universal Military Train
ing and Service Act"
"These students who meet the
criteria for consideration for de-
ferment as students-by class
standing in the prescribed upper
portion of their class or by max
ing a score of TO or better on the
Selective Service College Qualifi-
cation Test-may be deferred by
their Local Board under the new
student classification plan, from
year to year until graduation. OF
course, these students must con-
tinue to maintain their high scho-
lastic averages in order to be
considered for additional periods
of deferment"
"The student who has not been
previously ordered for induction
and subsequently postponed may

1 the coming fall semester, even
I though he has not met the criteria
for deferment as a student, and be
sure that he can complete his aca-
demic year." Colonel Stanwood
said, and added that the student
in this category who is ordered
for induction need only present
the facts to his Local Board and
he will receive a statutory defer
ment until the end of his academ-
ic wear
