THE DAILY MISSOULIAN, MISSOULA, SATURDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 14, 1942. Education Week Essay The following article was chosen News Of Men In Service President Lays Plans for Teen Agers After War Signs Draft Bill, Pro-poses Facilities to Further Delayed Educations. (Continued From Page One. "The time has now come when the successful prosecution of the war requires that we call to the colors the men of 18 and 19. Many have already volunteered.

Others have been eagerly awaiting the call. All are ready and anxious to serve. "The' civilian careers of these men will be interrupted, as have the careers of most of their seniors. Large numbers about to enter the armed services will come from Brother of Student Among War Casualties Clarence Christenson, on U. S.

S. Duncan, Went Down With Ship. Earl Christenson, State University senior from Roy, near Lewis-town, has been advised by the Navy department of the death of his brother, Clarence, in the sinking of the U. S. destroyer Duncan, whose loss was announced some time ago.

Clarence Christenson, an electrician's mate, first class, went down with the ship, his brother was advised. The sailor entered the Navy first in 1933, and served until 1937, reenlistlng in 1940. He had been in service in the Atlantic until a few months ago, and had been transferred from the U. S. S.

Pollux, a supply ship, Just before the vessel was smashed in a storm off Newfoundland. The Duncan was put into service In April, and Christenson was transferred to duty in the Pacific aboard the new vessel. BUY WAR STAMPS and BONDS WITH the MONEY YOU SAVE at the SUPER SAVE! Shopping for Christmas Is Far Advanced Gas Rationing Deadline Causing Many to Make Purchases Now. Christmas shopping is under way in Missoula, probably the earliest in history on a large scale. Western Montanans got the spirit In making purchases of gifts to send to men In the service overseas, when they started "looking around." Faced with the restricted speed limits on highways and the gasoline rationing, there are many in the Western Montana valleys making trips to the city, declaring that they are doing their Christmas shopping ahead of the gas rationing.

Each day finds scores of residents from the Bitter Root, Flathead, Blackfoot and from the Clark's fork and Coeur d'Alene districts here pickingup their purchases long in advance for Christmas. Stores are displaying their toys and other Christmas merchandise now and there are yet 34 shopping days before Christmas. One other thing that is spurring the Christmas business this year is the early mailing dates suggested by the postoffice department. The postal department has suggested December 10 as the late mailing date for cards and packages as a safe time in which to get the mail through, because of the difficulties In transportation. Today is expected to see another day of buying for the Christmas trade by those coming to the city from the nearby valleys.

Stalin Expresses Appreciation of Move Into Africa (Continued From Page One.) will be of decisive importance for organizing victory over Hitlerite tyranny. "Three: What possibility is there of Soviet offensive power in the east joining the Allies in the west to hasten the final victory? "Answer: There need be no doubt that the Red army will fulfill its task with honor as it has been fulfilling it throughout the war. "With respect, (signed) J. Stalin." The letter was the first direct Soviet comment on the significance of the African campaign although the press has been publishing reports on its progress with evident satisfaction. The Friday "Evening Moscow" carried an account of the British capture of Tobruk and Bar-dla, publishing it with exceptional speed under an unusually large two-column headline.

The press devoted four full columns to Churchill's speech In the House of Commons Wednesday, giving the Russian people for the first time an explanation of the background of the second front problem. Stalin's letter gave an effective answer to any speculation over Allied relations, with the assurance of close friendly cooperation. The Russian leader had told his people November 6 that there would be a second front sooner or later, and now has hailed the African campaign as a prerequisite for creation of that front.

"I am causing a study to be made by a committee of educators, under the auspices of the War and Navy departments, for the taking of steps to enable the young men whose education has been interrupted to resume their schooling and afford equal opportunity for the training and education of other young men of ability after their service in the armed services has come to an end." "Some useful action along this line was improvised at the end of the last war," the President said. "This time we are planning in advance." The drafting of the new age group, it has been estimated, might supply more than 2,000,000 of the 4,500,000 additional men needed in all the armed forces by January 1 1944.

Probably Next Month. Inductions from the 18- 19-vear- old group were expected to begin witnin 3U or 40 days. This, however, will vary to some extent, depending upon preparations made by local boards to meet draft calls with older men and also on how rapidly the boards can classify the new group for service. Scheduled for classification first are an estimated 800,000 to physically fit youths among some 1,200,000 to 1,500,000 left over after enlistments and inductions from the 2,400,000 youths who registered last June 30 for induction at 20 years. Another pool of 1,755,000 will exist at the end of 1943 from those who have reached 18 since the June 30 registration or who will reach that.

age during 1943, but this group expected to yield a net of some 1.275,000 physically fit can not be classified immediately. Regulations for their classification are to be issued by the President, and may provide specific registration dates or provide that each youth shall register within a designated time after he becomes 18. Meanwhile, drafting of older groups, including childless married men, will continue as needed to fill out draft calls for another this year and 2,000,000 more next year as the Army's total strength mounts to 7,500,000 by January 1, 1944.

Box from a group of essays written by Missoula county high school students for American Education week, one of which will appear each day this week. The following was writ ten by a student in the creative writing class taught by Helen Fink: STRENGTHENING MORALE FOR VICTORY.

By Marjorie Powell. Morale, today, has become much more than an indication of political windblowing and a people's optimism. It has been raised to the status of a secret weapon, a propaganda product, and the basis on which a war effort revolves. A nation without morale, the faith in victory is a nation of poor fighters. Germany proved this in the last war.

Italy is the most out standing example of it in this war. So a high morale for the American people is a necessity. Instruction in learning facts from untruths, recognizing propaganda devices, and teaching students that we will win, when and if we, make every effort to do so, all are part of education's contribution to the nation's morale.

(Continued From Page One.) Allied invasion of the continent begins. Secretary of Agriculture Wickard has repeatedly said that "food will win the war and write the peace." There was some speculation here that the President's order might be an indirect bid to the French fleet, supposedly still off Toulon France, to come over to the United Nations side. Supplies would presumably be given to it and its men.

Stephen Early, White House secretary, said arms would be supplied to the Army, Navy, Air forces and citizens of the occupied areas to carry on the fight against our common enemies. Meanwhile the Office of War Information listed a number of vital foods and materials captured by the American forces in North Africa and predicted German stomachs and production would suffer as a result.

There was one Missoula coun ty Selective Service registrant who left Thursday afternoon for Cascade Locks, Oregon, who must have felt a little out of place among his traveling companions. He was one of the few conscientious objectors, who has carried his objections up to the day he was called for induction. Not having changed his views, he has been assigned to serve at the government camp stationed at the point of his destination.

Selective Service office clerks here state that registrants in the con-conscientious-objector class have been few, not exceeding a dozen, and of this number, several retracted their stands and have been inducted into service, while the majority failed to pass physical and mental examinations, making further steps for their disposal unnecessary. The man who left today is the first objector who has gone the entire route that leads to a government camp.
