Freighters May Be Called To Haul War Supplies, Food To Democracies Churchill Claims Troops Are Safe WASHINGTON, April 30.-(W) President Roosevelt asked the Mari- time Commission tonight to obtain service of "at least 2,000,000 tons of merchant shipping" to be used to supply "all out aid to the democra- cies." In a letter to the commission's chairman, Rear Admiral Emory S. Land, the President indicated that cargo vessels of all types might be taken from their existing or proposed trade routes to haul war supplies and food across the seas. He said also that the American Merchant Fleet must be expanded faster tha was planned "so that ships and more ships will be avail- able to carry the food and the muni- tions of war to the democracies o the world." The President's action was another in a chain of steps designed to help insure that weapon of war produced in American factories shall arrive on the other side of the Atlantic. Already Mr. Roosevelt has said that American naval vessels may range the seven seas, even into combat zones, to be on the lookout for craft that might prove a threat to the Western Hemisphere. These' naval patrols are expected to be of help to Britain by spotting Axis warcraft and giving warning of their presence. Mr. Roosevelt has said the govern- ment has no idea of using American naval vessels for convoy purposes, however. Today, with administration forces arguing that he would not re- sort to convoys without asking the consent of Congress, the Senate For- eign Relations Committee defeated a half dozen attempts to force anti- convoy resolutions to the Senate Floor for Debate. BEF Saves 45,000 In Greek Evacuation (By The Associated Press) While Prime Minister Winston Churchill told a cheering House of Commons in London last night that 45,000 of the 60,000 troops which comprised the BEF in Greece had been saved, Berlin reported that Nazi troops were cleaning up in the Pelo- ponnesus, and thatthe Germans were ready to incorporate Greece in the "new order." From Moscoe came the report that 12,000 Nazi troops had been landed in Finland, only 50 miles from a military base acquired by Russia at the end of the Finnish war.

Ticket Sale Opens For French Play Tickets for "Le Jeu de L'Amour et Detz erCalls Press Freedom Essential To Present Liberties Freedom of the press and censorship are the concern of every American if our present liberties are to be preserved, Karl Detzer, roving editor of Readers' Digest, declared at a meeting of the Adult Educatirn Institute yesterday in the Rackham Lecture Hall. Asserting that we must constantly ask ourselves "How can we keep America free?" Mr. Detzer spoke of freedom of the press as one of the factors that made possible the very sort of meeting that he was addressing. While we are safe for the moment from "the logic of the bayonet and the culture of the firing squad" only in the United States and Great Britain could such a meeting be held, he pointed out. We are concerned not only with censorship of military information, but of publications, movies, radio and private individuals, and to the censor- ship of these Mr. Detzer announced ~---- - -- Michigan Nine Ldged Out, 2-0; Netters Engage Michigan State PROFESSOR STETSON Rich of the physics department, treasurer; Prof. Orlan W.

The Michigan chapter of Sigma Xi, composed of more than 500 ac- tive members, has as its aim the en- couragement of scientific research, and, in recognition of this, demands high scholarship and the promise of research ability from its candidates.

With a joint no-hit game over the powerful Broncos of Western State Teachers College almost within the grasp of the two Wolverine hurlers, Gould weakened in the ninth and gave up two hits, two runs and the ball game. The final score was: West- ern State 2, Michigan 0.

The prob- lem of censorship is not a matter of emergency, but is with us at all times, he explained. Some type of control, self-imposed censorship, is both valuable and nec- essary in times such as these, how- ever, said Mr. Detzer, to quell the whisper of internal dissentton which the Boston police censor as deroga- tory to Boston womanhood but is cir- culating freely in all other parts of the country. Mr. Detzer declared that while our enemies will encourage these whis- pers, it is up to us to destroy them by making our homes strongholds of tolerance.
