Said he was taking no part in arguments over whether students at the service academies should be permitted to join in in tercollegiate debate on the assigned question of recognition of Red China.

Boost to Morale He described the proposed military manpower program as a move to strengthen the morale and effectiveness of both active and reserve forces. Wilson estimated the pay raise, which would range from three to five per cent of current scales ith possibly greater increases for some key categories would cost up to 600 million dollars yearly. Wilson said it had been decided to ask for an extension of the Selective Service Act for four years after the present law expires next June 30. In addition to the regular two-year service for most draftees, there would be provision for training some 50,000 to 100.000 young men for a period of six months annually, after which they would go into the organized reserves. Wilson said, in reply to ques-tons, that the men who took only the six months basic training would be under some fornr of compulsion to continue active training in the National Guards or the organized reserves.

British Ship Sinks; Two Feared Lost LONDON, Nov. 30 LB The great storm sweeping Britain sank a ship today and spread new floods and damage across the country. Rescue ships plucked three bodies and 19 survivors from the boiling Irish Sea after the British freighter Tresillian foundered at dawn. Coastguards reported 12 other bodies were sighted in the area and six more crewmen were missing and believed lost. That brought the death toll in five days of shipping disasters to 43.

Two other ships are feared Jost. Winds up to 100 miles an hour brought torrential rain and rising floods to more than 20 counties. People in several south coast towns were flooded out for the second time in four days. Hundreds of would-be travelers were held at London as to type of violation or geographic boundaries. The York attorney made the room, peeled off his overcoat, took a seat and.

with a hroad smile, invited the reporters to "fire away bui don't get off limits." For the older correspondents it was pretty much like a reunion. They had a close association with him during the years 1933 through 1943. He was elected to the state House of Representatives from the city of York in 1933. In 1937 he was majority floor leader, and in the 1939 session he was the minority leader. From 1941 to 1943 he was director of the Pennsylvania Legislative Bureau.
