There still were indications many would not be ordered to report to camps on the date originally set, November 15. Barracks, kitchens and sanitation facilities had not been completed in many camps and until these are in operating order, many summoned may be sent to southern stations where they will be able to live under canvas, to begin their toughening up process.

His 20-mi- le t, d will be $10,000 a year, which is half of what he received in Cincinnati, and $5,000 less than he was salary getting as president of the University of Wisconsin. He has a leave of absence from the school. President Roosevelt will pick the first numbers from the goldfish bowl indicating which men will be called first. He will be blindfolded by Col.

FUND RAISING: President Speaks Community Chests in thousands of communities taking part in the 1940 Mobilization for Human Needs opened their drives for funds. The first gun fired was a speech from the White House by President Roosevelt. The ancient injunction to love thy neighbor as thyself, the President said, still is the force that animates our faith a faith that we are determined shall live and conquer in a world poisoned by hatred and ravaged by war, WASHINGTON: Defense The capital is filled with rumors of impending changes in the defense commission setup following the election. One rumor has it that if Roosevelt wins, he will offer Wendell L. Willkie, his Republican opponent, the position of commission Secrets milk-wago- pan are the three Republican members of the cabinet Stimson, Knox and Ickes. On the other hand, the state department plus some of the admirals favor a policy toward Japan. They believe in applying the embargoes gradually, or as Mr. Ickes describes it, "cutting off the dogs tail by inches." The state department concurs that cutting off Japans oil would paralyze her fleet after her present 2Ms months supply was exhausted. But they also believe it would force Japan to move into the Dutch East Indies immediately in order to get more oil. Last week one argument over this point and over general naval policy in the Far East developed into a hot debate between the navy, on one side, and Hull and Welles on the other. It took place at the White House, in front of the President, who did most of the listening. Hull and Welles contended that if we stopped Japans oil supply she would certainly attack the Dutch East Indies, and that the United States could not possibly afford to have ships in that area because they might be needed in Atlantic waters. Welles pointed out that the Germans might seize the Azores or the French naval base at Dakar, West Africa, which would menace South America. To this, Admiral Leahy, now governor of Puerto Rico and one of Roosevelts closest naval advisers, replied: Gentlemen, we dont have to worry about Dakar and the Azores now. The British fleet can still prevent Germany from taking them. But a few months from now it may be different. By next spring, or even this winter, the war may have gone against the British in the Mediterranean, and then well have two oceans to defend. Now we have only one." go-slo- w chairman. A more likely routine is that William A. Knudsen will be elevated to the position of chief of staff and that Donald T.

Maxime Weygand, representative of the Vichy forces. Neutral sailors escaping from Dakar reported the Senegal sector had been taken over by German authorities. Washington looked at the news apprehensively. Officials there believe the Germans soon may use that air base for commercial flights to South America.

First, members of the house appropriations committee made public details of an airport program that the army was guarding and asked be kept secret. Then Rep. Van Zandt (R., Pa.) made an array of figures of arms equipment, although Chief of Staff Marshal was said to have requested the tables be treated as confidential. Otherwise on the Washington front: C. Secretary of State Hull made public denial of rumors that he would resign. C. American diplomatic missions in Rome and Berlin were ordered home in what was described as a personnel shift.
