Japan, no less which now controls than 50,000,000 Moslems, has also consented, according to reports. The only country to show aiv reluctance toward the plan is Bulgaria which houses an minority of 800,000 Moslems, known as Pomaks " The Sofia government, according to a reliable source, refused to take any commitment in the name of the Moslem minoritv, declaring that it was Germanys business to obtain their agreement. d 4 SUPREME AUTHORITY The proclamation of a Moslem caliphate in Cairo, the Nazis believe, would have deep i 4 i - 9 A i the throughout repercussions Moslem world of approximately 300,000,000 as, under Moslem traditions, the caliph is not merely the ruler of his own country but also supreme religious authority over all Moslems and revered as such.

In the air corps alone! possibly 500,000 such men would be involved. Several lawmakers arose to assail the procedure recommended by the rules committee as a gag rule which prevented the House full consideraion of the issues involved In lowering the age limitation. This rule, piotested Rep. Fish (RNY), denies to the membership of the House the right to insist upon one years training before these youths are sent to foreign battlefields The bias? hats, he shouted, are not infallible. Neither is the House military committee. In the last war they sent these youths into battle as replacements with less than 30 days training But a fellow Republican, Rep.

Looking Backward C-- 2 Chicago who declares that fngUtcsring. education now prevailing will lead to mass illiteracy. War Demands Held To Lead To Illiteracy regu-- , CHICAGO, $25,-00- Oct. 17 (AP) President Robert M. Hutching of the University of Chicago said last night that If demands of government agencies, including the armed services, for engineering education from the age of 6 prevail, the educational system will be promoting mass illiteracy in the country, for at least the duration of the war. Hutchins asserted that "If the governments attitude pre- vails, the law school will either have to take students at about 25 or 26. who have In some wav'got a start on reading and writing, or it will have to add ancient, medieval, modern and American history. English literature, foreign languages, the fine arts, speculative philosophy, and the biological sciences to its curriculum The alternative Is to leave the educational system free to work out a program of education for citizenship between the ages of 6 and 10. . . . This education for citizenship must rigidly exclude technological work, instead of exclusively insisting upon it as the government is now doing.

They 0 will be limited at the top to a year after making allowances for permissible deductions and the payment of taxes. WLB and the Treasury were expected to suggest stabilization measures which would allow raises reflecting promotions for merit or for more responsible duties provided they would not tend toward disturbing price Inceilings or toward sizeable creases In costs of commodities. Meantime, agricultural officials who refused to be quoted by name, said they believed the authority granted Wickard empowered him to revise farm wages to help keep workers on farms and attract others into lines of agricultural production essential for war purposes. The regulations, they theorized, probably would bring farm wages more In line with industrial pay and might authorize payments of subsidies to farm operators to enable them to give higher wages. Runaway price increases must be prevented now, Byrnes added, to avert a collapse like that which followed the last war.
