Amenlments
Selective Service Terms
Would Be Extended
More Than One Year
Barkley Predicts
Favorable Action
WASHINGTON, July 14.-('P)-
Congressional leaders decided at a
conference with President Roosevelt
today to press for immediate enact-
ment of legislation to hold selectees,
national guardsmen and reservists
in service for more than one year.
The decision was made despite
some earlier doubts in Administra-
tion quarters on Capitol Hill that
Congress would be willing to take the
step.
After the White House conference,
however, Senator Barkley of . Ken-
tucky, majority leader, predicted to
reporters that when Congress "gets
the facts and realizes its responsi-
bility it will react favorably." Speak-
er Rayburn (Dem.-Tex.) of the
House had said last week he doubted
the proposal could win approval from
Congress at present.
Hearings To Start Thursday
Chairman Reynolds (Dem.-N.C.)
announced that the Senate military
committee would hold hearings on'
the legislation starting Thursday. He
added, however, that he was still op-
posed to the bill as an individual'
member.
Arguments in support of the legis-
lation were submitted to the Presi-;
dent's congressional lieutenants by,
Gen. George C. Marshall, Chief of;
Staff, who has recommended that
all men now in the Army be kept in
service beyond their scheduled peri-
ods of duty.
Barkley said he was convinced
that the action was needed to pre-
vent the Army from "disintegrating
because of- the withdrawal of large
numbers of trained soldiers."
Leaders made it clear that the
immedate program did not include
anotb er recommendation by General
Marshall that an existing restriction
against use of selectees outside the
Western Hemisphere be removed.
Three Approaches
The majority leader said there
were three possible approaches that
might bemade to the questionyof
keeping the troops in service, any
one of which might be chosen.
Congress might, he explained
amend the act directly to provide for
keeping the men in service; it could
declare a state of national emergency
which would permit keeping the
troops on duty, or the law could be
amended to put the selectees on the
same basis as reserve officers, so
that they could be called for active
duty after their regular training
periods had ended.

By HARRY M. KELSEY
The World War of 1914-18 was sig-'
nificant chiefly in opening up for
Germany the possibility of 'domina-
tion. over all the smaller5 national
areas of easternhEurope, Prof. Rich-
ard Hartshorne of the University of
Wisconsin declared yesterday.
Professor Hartshorne spoke in the
lecture series sponsored by the Grad-
uate Study Program in Public Policy
in a World at War. His subject was
"The World's Geographical-Political
Pattern."
The possibility of German domina-
tion was brought about through the
destruction of her ally, Austria-Hun-
gary, Professor Hartshorne pointed
out, the immediate result being the
prevention of threat of Austro-Hun-
garian domination of all southeast-
ern Europe.
The most critical weakness of
southestern Europe in recent years,
Professor Hartshorne explained, has
been the exposed position of most of
the smaller states to the overwhelm-
ingly larger German unit, but the
fact that it may now lie suffering
destruction does not prove that the
structure was inevitablS destined to
collapse. It shows only that the struc-
ture lacked the military power to
withstand direct attack from Ger-
many following the withdrawal of
counter-pressure from its other neigh-
bor, Russia, and the general aband-
onment of a larger system of collec-
tive security, the lecturer asserted.
The major threat to the security
of eastern and western Europe is the
same, Professor Hartshorne main-
tained: the central German national
area of much greater productive size

To Open Here

increase its potential danger to the
national states on the west, he said.
"Hence the paradox insufficiently
understood in France and England,"
Professor Hartshoren noted, "that
the stability of western Europe de-
pended upon the national security
of states that were otherwise of such
little concern tothem as Austria,
Czechoslovakia and Poland."
Prof. Hartshorne warned against
the acceptance of a solution in the
form of the Nazi concept ofth e Leb-
ensraum. "The world in general,"
he stated, "cannot be expected to
accept a proposal that the previous
organization of half a continent be
overthrown by force for the sake of
a so-called "new order" for which
no plan has been offered."
RAF Searches
Seas For Nazi
Ships, Planes
22,500 Reich Tons Sunk;
Nine Aircraft Bagged,
British Report Discloses
(By The Associated Press)
LONDON, July 14.-The RAF went
hunting today for German shipping
and German planes, found both and,
to tabulate the British reports, scored
hits on five ships totaling 22,500 tons
and shot down nine aircraft.
A tenth German plane, the second
bmber of the day, was credited to
anti-aircraft defenses along the Scot-
tish east coast. The other bomber
was destroyed by fighters off the
coast of Wales, said the official re-
port.
The RAF made morning raids on
the German-held French ports of
Cherbourg and Le Havre, rail yards
at Hazebrouck, near St.,Omer, and
in the afternoon big Blenheims of
the bomber command, searching for
North Sea shipping, attacked a small
convoy off the Dutch Frisian iselands,
the Air Ministry said.
Three direct hits were scored on
one vessel of 6,000 tons, another of
3,000 tons was hit astern and an
escort vessel of 1,500 tons was struck
amidships, the communique said. A
fighter which tried to break up the
attack was shot down into the sea, it
was said, and all the Blenheims
came home unharmed.
The morning attack on Gherbourg
was estly, for the British acknowl-
edged the loss of two bombers and
four fighters.

Speech On Personality
In Rackham Lecture Hall
"Undesirable Personality Traits,"
second in a series of three lecturesl
sponsored by the Bureau of Appoint-
ments and Occupational Informa-
tion, will be presented at 7 p.m. to-
day in the Rackham Lecture Hall.
Dr. T. Luther Purdom, director of
the Bureau, announced that the pro-
gram of the lecture will consist of
first, a discussion of habits dis-
tasteful to employers and second,
three demonstrations illustrating his
points.
The demonstrations will show why
people do not get jobs because they
dress like young girls, when they are
past that age; because the appli-
cants try to tell the employer how to
run his business when applying, and
because some applicants are too pas-
sive, not asserting themselves in any
way.
The lectures are given under the
general heading, "Why People Do
Not Get Jobs." Next week's talk, to
be given at the same time, will deal
with the subject, "Why People Do
Not Hold Jobs."
Dr. Purdom emphasized the fact
that these lectures are not meant to
show how to get a job, but rather
how to apply for one, and keep it
after it has been' secured.

ny time, German tanks on the Mos-
,ow side of the Stalin Line are jab-
ing toward the Russian capital, and
eningrad is caught in a German-
innish vise, informed Germans de-
lared tonight.
This was their broad outline of the
var against Russia, at the end of the
second day of its fourth week. These
reas-Leningrad in the north, Mos-
ow in the Center, and Kiev in the
south-constitute the main front.
German Report
The German High Command, in
mother of its uncommunicative
noods, said simply that "break-
through operations" against the
Stalin Line continued on schedule,
hat Finnish forces had opened a
wo -point attack on Leningrad's
iorthern flank and that two Russian
patrol boats had been sunk by Ger-
nan submarines.
One break-through was said to
Eave been at Opachka, midway be-
tween Polotsk and Pskov and acear
the Latvian frontier.
Finnish forces under Field Marshal
Baron Gustav Mannerheim were said
o be moving down on Leningrad-on
both sides of Lake Ladoga where
Finland's frontier lies about 75 miles
from the Russian industrial center
and war base.
Official News
Such was the sum of the most
official news on the campaign. Au-
thorized spokesmen and DNB, offi-
cial news agency, filled in other de
ails, saying that German, Hungarian
nd Rumanian forces were hammer-
ing at the gates of Kiev, gateway to
the Ukraine's richest industrial and
farming areas.
Mannerheim's Finns were repre-
sented as a sort of hammer striking
down on a Leningrad held on the
anvil of German Panzer forces ad-
vancing in the area east of Lake
Peipus.
St. Petersburg
Berlin newspaper reverted to the
old Czarist name of St. Petersburg
for Leningrad, so named for the
founder of the Communist state,
Nikolai Lenin. It is the German
conviction that Communist as a
world political force is receiving its
death blow at the hands of the Ger-
man army and Germans here there-
fore started erasing Communist
terminology.
Heavy equipment which the Rus-
sians were dragging out of the hot,
central section east of Minsk was
subjected to aerial bombardment.
Group Cooperation
Gives Experience,
IBeauinont 'Asserts
"Today pupils acquire experience
in cooperating with each other
towards a common goal," Prof. Henry
Beaumont of the University of Ken-
tucky said before the educators in
the Univesity High School Auditor-
ium yesterday.
"They soon discover that the best
interests of all requires a considera-
tion for the needs of each individual
in the group," he said, and that each
child must put forth his best effort
if the results are to be what he wants.
This interest in common enterprise
serves. as a powerful motivation and
makes it possible for the modern
teacher to dispense with the older
forms of discipline."
"Those forms were necessary at a
time-when the pupils were not aware

of their relations to the group and
were compelled to engage in activi-
ties frequently unrelated to their in-
terests and needs," Professor Beau-
mont said.
