He signed the mandatory priorities bill giving the government authority to subordinate civilian needs completely. Priorities previously could have been applied only to orders under army and navy contracts, but Mr. Roosevelt's act Monday gives the government power to apply them to orders for nil democracies 'accepting aid under the lease-lend program, to all government agencies, and to civilian needs which defense officials deem urgent enough to rate preference over war production. Under the law, Industry must produce first the things the government tells it to and without protest. The priority power wa3 given to the Office of Production Management Priority division, headed by Edward R.

Stettinius, former chairman of the board of United Slates Steel Corp. Administration authorities said they felt the OPM may never have to exercise complete powers. Enactment of the law was a victory for Mr. Roosevelt and William S. Knudsen, chief of OPM.

The house had amended the bill to vest the authority with th Wan and Navy high and Stettinius had opposed the amendment vigorously, and it has been reported at one time they would resign if the house's version became law. The senate revised the measure to make it acceptable to the defense production chiefs. Mr. Roosevelt also signed the 1942 treasury-postoffice appropriation bill which carries a rider designed to accelerate production of steel, one of the industries on which priorities have been invoked. Mr.

Roosevelt continued his week end rest with his family. He prob ably will return to Washington Tuesday. When he returns to Washington Tuesday Mr. Roosevelt will confer with John G. Winant, United Stales ambassador, to Great Brit ain.

The motor car industry, facing more uncertainty than ever respecting production possibilities, resumed its 26.000-units-a-day output schedule Monday, after a brief interruption because of the Memorial day holiday last week. With no labor difficulties In im mediate prospect th rr makers should be able to add another 132,000 vehicles this week to the already huge volume of production so far during the present model year. There appears to be a growing apprehension, however, among the manufacturers and sales executives that the newest priority regulations may interfere seriously with the original expectation that 1941 model output would reach 5.2000,000 units. If present projections can be maintained the industry will reach the end of June with an aggregate output of 4.672,000 of its 131 model cars. Crowded Into nine months since the start of the model year last Oct.

1, this volume of production gives a monthly average not previously attained by the industry's ascmbly plants. Despite this heavy production and many months of unprecedented retail demand, there is talk among sales executives of a possible shortage of new cars even before the new model year with its re stricted production program gets under way a little more than eight weeks hence. Many of the producers and merchandisers believe the likeli hood of a further curtailment of cur and truck production during the 1342 model year has grown materially in the last week or two. At the moment the car-makers have an "'authorized' maximum output for next year of slightly more than 4,200,000 units. None of them, however, expects anything like that volume to come from the assembly lines.

Even as the, "adjusted' curtailment of 21.13 per cent was announced in Wash ington a month ago, the possibility of a further cut was given con- sidrra'ion. according to manufacturing sntircra here.

An Australian who survived four war wounds told Monday of a voyage which crossed the path of legendary Llysses and was marked by adventures almost as fantastic. His odyssey began within sight of Mount Olympus, when his battalion was ordered back in the withdrawal from Greece. On the slopes of Mount Parnas.ius he suffered his first wound, a slight injury from a bomb fragment. In the Peloponnesus, he became separated from his comrades and was cut off by advancing Germans. But he met two othr Australians on the shore.

They found a rowboat, cut a sapling for a mast and, with a blanket for a sail, they pointed their little vessel for Crete. They had no compass and none fthem ever befor had navigated, but they steered by the sun and the stars and came within sight of the snow-capped peaks of the Mediterranean island. BOSTON. June 2 Some 6.000 Christian Scientists, gathered In annual meeting Monday in Boa-ton, were called upon by the Christ tian Science board of directors to consecrate themselves to the defense of the democratic system of government as the best human instrument for preserving the basic rights of mankind to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happins." In definitely allying this religious movement with the defenders of democracy everywhere, the directors stated that it was their conviction that if social and political freedom is to be preserved, "democratic forms of government must be established." The occasion for the message of the directors was the annual meeting of the Mother Church, the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Eos-ton. Mass.

Referring to the aggressive forces la action todiy throughout the world, the directors pointed out that "history plainly teaches that when a nation chooses to ignore God and to make matter the foundation stone of its government, such nation commits its cause to failure, and at the same time provides the means for Us ultimate defeat and undoing." The directors abo announced the election of John Randall Dunn of Boston and Centerville, as president of the Mother Church for the ensuing year. The incoming president accentuated the theme spiritual progress with the reassuring statement that "the present mighty world upheaval doe not portend the breaking up of civilization or the p.unging of humanity into chaotic darkness." He viewed the present conflict in the light of a world house-cleaning, during which individual and national sin, tyranny, greed, self-will, and lust for power are being brought to the surface of world thinking, ripe for destruction. And these ills, rather than world cmlizatkm, are the things that will be destroyed. Despite the troublous times In Europe, reports presented to the meeting conveyed the fact that church services are being conducted generally without interruption In the countries abroad. Some of the periodicals of The Christian Science Publishing society were said to be received regularly in all the countries of Europe, including the German-occupied territories an'! the Britten Lsles.

The department of branches and practitioners indicated in its report that the urge for spiritual refreshment and regeneration goes on despite the world conflict, and In tome places, the spiritual urge springs from the current need for dependence upon something more substantial than material instruments. Evidence of this spiritual growth was found in the establishment of 27 new branches of the Mother Church, seven of them In England, one in Switzerland, one in Africa and one each in British Guiana and the West Indies. Twenty societies were reported to have taken the title of church and five new university organizations were formed nd qualified for official approval. In the report of the trustees under the will of Mary Baker Eddy, it was announced that since the trust was established in 1913, more than $6,000,000 has been extended by it towards Christian Science church activities throughout the world. The report of the treasurer for the fiscal year ending April SO, 1341..

showed that the finances of the Mother Church were in sound condition. There was no indebtedness to report except for taxes on property owned in the vicinity of the church payable in October. The clerk of the Mother Church, Ezra VV. Palmer, reported that "despite the restrictions imposed by the nations limiting mail and transportation, which to some degree have hindered the free flow of applications for membership, the number of new members accepted has been encouraging. Reporting on the war relief work.

Palmer said that the war relief committee in Boston began its work on Sept. 19. 1940. Today more than 1,000 committees serving as a recognized activity of the branch churches are shipping war relief material to Boston or to one of the other three depots now functioning in New York, Portland, and Los Wreck Victim Still In Serious Condition Grady Powell, 33, of 560 N.

PEPPER RENEWS WHEELER DEFI Florida Senator Says F.D.R.

Foe Avoiding British Aid Debate ROCKFORD. June 2. f.T) Sen. Claude Pepper Fla.) says that his invitation to Sen. Burton K.

Wheeler Mont.) for a debate in the latter's home state on the administration's for cign policy is still open. The Florida Democrat, a lead ing supporter of more aid to Kng-land. "renewed" his invitation Sunday night in the course of an address before the Rockford chapter of the Committee to Defend America by Aiding the Allies. He had suggested that the de bate on "Is the President Right?" be held in Helena, June 4, but Wheeler, an avowed opponent of the administration's foreign policy, replied Saturday that he would be busy at that time at tending a hearing before the Interstate Commerce commission. Pepper asserted that the Mon-tanan's reply was "just a clever way of declining my invitation." In his address.

Pepper called for national unity in the present crisis, declaring that congress "is paralyzed while it waits for the people to spnak with a united voice" on the nation's foreign policy. He declared that congress wns divided in three ways: "One group has made up its mind concerning the course to ho followed; the second is on the other side, and the third waitt to hear from home."
