Rubber Plant
Issue Grows

Jeffers Asserts He or
Patterson Must Quit;
Truman Plans Probe
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON, April 23.-Rubber
Director William M. Jeffers is "boil-
ing mad," close associates said to-
night, and is resolved that the new
flareup between him and Undersec-
retary of War Robert P. Patterson
must end in a real showdown-his
resignation or Patterson's.
Jeffers, described by one 'of his
aides "the maddest Irishman in all
the United States," was enroute to
Baton Rouge, La., this evening to in-
spect a new synthetic rubber plant.
He left behind a flurry of official ac-
tivity stirred up by ~harges attribute4
to Patterson that the emphasis of
synthetic rubber 'was -hurting the
Allied air offensive by curtailing
aviation gasoline,
The Union Pacific president felt
he had been accused by Patterson of
sabotaging the war effort by his in-
sistence on priority for the rubber
program, a reliable source In his of-
fice disclosed. This informant; who
cannot be further identified, quoted
Jeffers as telling 'associates that
when the investigation demanded by
him ha. settled the issue, either he
or Patterson should quit Washington.
Jeffers was said to"have described
the Patterson statement as "the most
violent and unprovoked attack which
a public servant has iver had to sus-
tain." Publicly he demanded an in-
ve~lg'tlo t ge 'a te "true' fact s."Y
Patterson'sloffice yesterday quted
the Undersecretar as declaring the
all-out air assault on Nazi'Europe
this summer might be wealkened'ser-
iously by theaviation gasolineshort-
age, adding that some ,army planes
had been grounded already. Patter-
son, in his demands for more' avia-
tion gasoline equipment," is being
backed by Secretary" 'of Interior
Ickes.
Chairman Truman (Dem.-Mo.) of
the Senate War Investigating con-
mittee announced anqinjilr y into the
controversy today He said the com-
mittee will hear testimony next
Tuesday from chairman Donald M.
Nelson.of the ,WarProductnBoard.
and Secretary' Ickes,who is -Petro-

Ace Wants To
Go to Tokyo
Joe Foss Has Shot
Down 26 Jap Planes
WASHINGTON, April 23.-()-
America's ace pilot in this war-
Marine Capt. Joe Foss who shot down
26 Japanese planes in the battle of
Guadalcanal-wants to go back to
the Pacific "to pay a short visit to
Tokyo."
"Then," said the one-time South
Dakota farm lad who used to whet
his marksmanship by shooting
skunks, "maybe we could have a
short talk about what happened to
the Doolittle pilots who fell into
Japanese hands after the raid on To-
kyo more than a year ago."
Foss met reporters today at a press
conference and made no effort to
hide his feelings over the execution
of some of those fliers.
But the strapping pilot, whose rec-
ord of enemy planes downe'd exactly
equals that of Capt. Eddie Ricken-
backer in the first world war, won't
have his wish fulfilled at once. He is
to make a tour of pre-filght schools
and naval training stations around
the country after a short leave.
The Sphinx picnic will be at 3
p.m. Sunday. The group will meet
at the Geddes Street entrance to
the Arboretum.

Tag Day Drive
To Start Friday
Profits Will Give Boys
One Month At Camp
University students, faculty mem-
bers and townspeople will again be
asked to contribute Friday to the an-
nual Tag Day drive which enables
several hundred boys from metro-
politan areas to spend a month's va-
cation at camp.
Marking the twenty-third year of
its operation, the camp offers rich
opportunities for educators, social
workers, and group leaders to study
some of the problems of maladjusted
youth.
"This year, more than ever, the
camp is needed to provide an outlet
in a vacation for young boys who
might only roam the streets and get
in trouble, Prof. F. N. Menefee, head
of the faculty committee of the
camp, said.
The Tag Day committee, co-
chairmanned by Paul Wingate, '43,
and Helen Kressbach, '44, will se-
cure enough students from sorori-
ties, fraternities, cooperatives, and
organizations to man twenty-five
campus and downtown posts from
18 a.m. till 4 p.m. next Friday.
The boys attending this camp are
chosen without regard to race or
religion by social agencies in metro-
politan areas of Detroit.

Lane Hall will be the scene for
the gala "International Night" when
students and faculty members meet
at 8:30 p.m. Friday for an evening
of old-fashioned square dancing and
special entertainment in the form
of a floor show.
"International Night"-so desig-
nated because it will feature special
performances by students from the'
International Center-will provide
everything from dart-throwing, for-
tune-telling, and silhouette-cutting
Churches Will Reserve
Space for Service Men
Seven Protestant churches and St.
Mary's Chapel for Catholic students
will reserve special pews at the Eas-
ter services for all men in uniform,
Dr. Edward W. Blakeman, religious
counselor, announced yesterday.
Among the churches cooperating
are the Baptist, Congregational,
Episcopal, Christian Science, Luther-
an, Methodist, Presbyterian and
Catholic.

in booths to musical entertainment,
a hula and a Hungarian dance.
Dottie Tamura, '45, a native Ha-
waiian from Honolulu, will hula in
national costume. Clarence Foster,
Grad., will give a few readings and
Blanche Holpar, '44, will present a
Hungarian dance.
Also included as a part of the spe-
cial entertainment will be the Lane
Hall quartet, composed of Greg Hile-
man, '43, Clarence Foster, Grad..
Frank Bender, '43, and Jack Muehl,
'43. Harriet Porter, '448M, will sing
a few songs, Italian cabaret style.
"International Night" is sponsored
by Inter-Guild, the International
Center, and the central committee
for the World Student Service Fund.
All proceeds from the program will
go to the WSSF.
Each of the seven Protestant stu-
dent guilds who are cooperating in
planning the entertainment will take
over special booths. This program
will take the place of the annual
Inter-Guild party held every spring.
Tickets will go on sale Monday at
Lane Hall.

said, "His revolutionary doctrine that
the sun is' the center of the universe'
was de Ieloped internationally by
scientists of different countries.such
as Newton and Kepler, and was com-
pleted' by Finstein's theory of rela-
tivity."

life and doctrines of Copernicus with
