I M1Ci4] G-A N -W)A1L~Y acuiy Comments Typify Camnps Reaction To Crisis After Outbreak In Pacific + Japanese Military Responsible For Prof. McDowell. Clique War, Says (Continued from Page 1) greatly decrease our armament aid to Britain and Russia, since we are now able to anticipate full production- enough for our own needs and those of our allies. Prof. Albert Hyma of the history department, who has just finished a; history of the role of the Dutch in the Far East, hoped that this new turn in American affairs would bring a better understanding of the iipor- tance ,of this country's stake in the Pacific. In his opinion the United States should concentrate on crushing Japan-for the Dutch East Indies which are now endangered furnish many of our most vital defense sup- plies. He added that a large section of the Dutch navy is now stationed in the East Indies ready to act in conjunction with the United States and Britain. An immediate decrease in the num- ber of strikes will mark labor's reac- tion to the Far Eastern crisis, in the opinion of William Haber, professor of labor economics. Responsible labor leaders -like responsible isolationist leaders in Congress--were unaware of the gravity of the situation in the Pacific, Professor Haber stated. Now' that the threat has become apparent, labor will cooperate fully, he said. As to the Smith anti-strike bill now before Congress, Professor Ha- ber believes the necessity for such ,legislation is now greatly lessened. However, Congress will probably vote the President broad war-time powers to settle strikes on his own responsibility in order that war pro- duction will .not be impeded, he declared. 'Iron-Men' Still Awake After 100 Hour Duel The University of Michigan's two sleepless iron-men had moved into the 100th hour of their own private, war against sleep by press-time today. Bob Mitchell, '45A, of Benton Har- bor, and Clair Van Etten, '43E, of Gowand, N.Y., are more determined than ever to "fight to the last hour" for the $5 bet they have between them that each can outlast the other. Wearing dark glasses and needing a shave, Bob Mitchell admitted that "the situation was still a deadlock" but added: "I am confident in this grave crisis that my huge reserve strength will wear down my oppon- ent before another day is through.," Roommate Clair Van Etten is be- ginning to complain of "light-head- edness" but denies that his position is undergoing terrific bombardment and that he will soon give way to superior force. Pointing to his third pack of cigarettes in the last 24 hours, he issued this terse communi- que: "These weapons will carry me to ultimate victory." Morgenthatj Bans Japs Froin Nalion' s Brders WASHINGTON, Dec. 7-(AP)-Sec- retary Morgenthau tonight closed the nation's borders to Japanese nationals and imposed a strict ban on any fi- nancial transactions by Japanese aliens. The Treasury's actions came in a brief order by Secretary. Morgenthau revoking all outstanding general and specific licenses for any transactions by Japanese which may have been issued since Japanese and Chinese credits in this country were frozen by executive order on July 25. Local FirmsI Are Prepared For Sabotage A war emergency announcement' from Washington yesterday ordering all defense plants to take "proper measures" against sabotage finds Ann Arbor industries fully prepared. Chief of Police Sherman Morten- son, working with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, has informed his men of necessary precautionary measures, but many local companies' have been guarding against monkey wrenches and emery dust for over a year. Hoover Ball and Bearing, one of the biggest factories in town, has already placed FBI-trained men within its plant after the govern- ment agents' recent inspection, of its premises. F. J. Lapointe of American Broach and Machine Co., told The Daily yes- terday that "we have received pre-1 vious instruction as to what means to take in an emergency." LaPointe's firm, makers of an improved gun-+ boring machine tool, also reported a government order last week for "heavier equipment to make a new type of artillery weapon." Planning to fence its entire prop- erty, the Buhr Machine Tool Com- pany will soon institute identifica- tion badges for all workers. International Industries also re- ported worker identification, along with a four-page FBI form which must be filled out by new employes. Night watchmen and plant guards have already been added to local per- sonnel forces, with several smaller plants relying on familiarity withem- ployes to forestall any stoppages by outsiders. Pacific.Coast Alert For Raid Aircraft Plants Prepared With Listening Devices SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 7-AP)-- The army and navy went on a war basis on the Pacific seaboard today. All leaves were cancelled, all fur- loughs revoked, and every man was instructed to report to his station. The Japanese bomb attacks on Pearl Harbor and Manila, coming with stunning suddenness, reacted like a trigger pull to set the sea force and harbor defense at the alert. The commandant of the three naval districts on the west coast appealed by every medium for every officer and man to report to his post. NEW YORK, Dec. 7-(AP)-A naval official who declined to be quoted said today that the Navy Department had sent out an urgent call to all officers on leave to report at once to naval districts in which they are lo- cated. The second corps army area head- quarters here revoked, all leaves and furloughsand ordered all men to re- port to their posts. * m * Chicago Bears Trounce Cards In 34-24 Win' Wibners Tie With Packers For First Place Honors Of Western Division CHICAGO, Dec. 7.-(P)-The Chi- gago Bears defeated the. Chicago Cardinals today, 34-24, and tied the Green Bay Packers for first place in the Western Division of the National Pootball League. The result created the necessity of a play off game a week from today between the Bears and Packers to determine which will Ex-Hawaiica Not Worried About Mother Although his mother is living in Honolulu, Dick Emory, '42, an Ameri- can resident of the Hawaiian Islands for the past 15 years, isn't worried. Most of the white population of Honolulu, Emory explained, live in the valleys of Oahu Island. These valleys were not the points of the Japanese attacks. It is possible, he said that the heaviest casualties have taken place in the newly-built resi- dential sections outside the naval area of Pearl Harbor. This residential area was construct- ed by the Unitted States Government r IIISOL cttth eUN/GA r meet the New York Giants, eastern to house the large numbers of labor- titlists, for the league championship ers who had come to Hawaii to work Dec. 21. The Bears came from behind in the last five minutes of the fourth quar- ter for two touchdowns and a victory. The Cardinals had gone ahead, 24-21, on the opening play of the final period and for the next 10 minutes it looked like they would win by that score. But the great Bear machine was equal to the task. Power plays by Bob Swisher, Norman Standlee and George McAfee carried the ball 23 yards, and then the Bears called on their great passer, Sid Luckman, to do the rest. Dodgers Upset Giants NEW YORK, Dec. 7.-(A)-It was "Tuffy Leemans Day" at the Polo Ground for the New York Giants fullback today, but plungin' Pug Man- ders stole the show as the Brooklyn Dodgers upset their uptown rivals 21 to 7 to close out the National Profes- sional Football League season. Before the National League's larg- est crowd of the year-55,051-the former Drake University line-bucker scored all three Dodger touchdowns. The Giants were saved from a shut out when Hank Soar heaved a 60 yard touchdown pass to Kay Eakin on the end zone with 24 seconds to go. Redskins Win WASHINGTON, Dec. 7. -(/)- Slingin' Sammy Baugh rifled three touchdown passes to give the Wash- ington Redskins a 20-14 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in a National Pro League football game today. "Baugh connected with Joe Aguirre on the defense projects in Pearl Har- bor. According to Emory, these pro- jects have almost completely changed the external appearance of the har- bor within the past year and a half. The Japanese assault, Emory em- phasized, must have come as complete surprise to the majority of the Ha- waiian population. When he left the islands in September, most people thought that the Nipponese would not be audacious enough to attack such an apparently impregnable for- tress. Questioned about the loyalty of the Japanese living in Hawaii, Emory declared that most Americans there were of the opinion that the younger generation, educated in American schools and instilled with the ideals of 'democracy, would remain loyal to the United States. No Student Unit Policy Chan ged NIROTC, ROTC, And CAA Ake Unaffected By War As far ,as military circles on this campus could ascertain tonight there will be no change in the status of those students enrolled in the Re- serve Officers Training Corps, the Naval Reserve Officers Training' Corps, and the Civil Aeronautics Au- thority. Capt. Lyal Davidson, Commandant of the local naval unit, said that it would be conducted on exactly the same basis 'as in peace time, and add- ed that he could not comment on the strategic position of the opposing powers because of his official status. Captain Vollrath, in charge of pub- licity for, the ROTC unit, also stressed that nothing has been changed yet, and that no news of impending change has come from the War De- partment. He added that he per- sonally thought that the Allied navies could pretty well handle the situa- tion. Prof. Emerson Conlon of the School of Engineeripg, who is director of the CAA pr)gram, declared that the pilots now in raining will not be affected by the war with Japan. Although the program operates under a govern- ment subsidy, the participants are subject to compulsory military serv- ice only through regular draft chan- nels. *I .w,..,. ____ !
