Hurley, of the Diocese of St. Augustine, Fla., in a radio address. He declared the problem was one of strategy and thus should be solved by the head of the army to avoid “fatal delay.” PRESIDENT RAPS SENATOR WHEELER FOR DISCLOSURE (Continued from Page One) originally scheduled year and that present legal limitations restricting their service to the Western Hemis phere be removed. He heartily ap proved of the former, at least in part, but in view of what he con sidered the vagueness of where the hemispheric dividing line lay he plainly thought the second of less importance. Explains Position Mr. Roosevelt based his approval of the lengthened term of service for guardsmen and draftees on the fact that all the components of the Army were built about nuclei of regular army men to which contin gents from both the guard and the draftees were added. To release them after a year would impair the effi ciency of armed outposts in the At lantic and Pacific, he said. Whether the extended srvice plan should appl% only to men in' those outposts he was unable to say at present. As for where he considered the hemispheric boundary to lie, the President said it generally depend ed on which geographer be had con sulted last. He had tried to draw a line of demarcation, he added, but had given up. It was impossible, he said, to draw an imaginary line and put a buoy on it. ^Meanwhile, Sumner Welles, the acting Secretary of State, told re porters that plans for helping Soviet Russia place orders liree were pro ceeding so rapidly and effectively that discussions were reduced to working out details. At the same time, the War depart ment announced it had called to ex tended active duty all air corps re servists' whose civilian jobs are not of primary importance. The reserv ists, several hundred in all, are to be on duty by August 1. It was considered a foregone con clusion that army detachments would follow the Navy and Marines to Ice land. The troops might run to a considerable nfTmber, too, it was thought. No accurate statement of the number of British troops who have been holding the island was available.

On March 29, 1917, about a week before the entry of this country into the European war, Mr. Gause had organized and hsen elected cap tain of Troop C, the first separate squadron of cavalry in North Caro lina. When the United States actually became a participant in the war, the cavalry troop was mustered in to service and sent to Camp Se vier, S. C„ where it became known as Company C, 115th Machine Gun Battalion, 30th Division, with Mr. Gause remaining as commander of the company. The outfit was sent overseas in May, 1918, and participated in many notable battles in Belgium and France, including the break ing of the Hlndenburg Line, in which the 30th Division gained so much honor and fame.

GERMANS RENEW RAIDS ON ISLE (Continued from Page One) such as Wilhelmshaven were regard ed as primarily intended to destroy or cripple Germany’s output of sub marines. More Invasion Hints There even have been hints that the British may soon try a series of invasion sorties to test Germany’s western defenses while the Nazis are deeply engaged with the Soviets in the east. No British planes were lost in the late afternoon attack on Wilhelm shaven it was said authoritatively. The air ministry said heavy bomb ed* with fighter escorts scored hits across the synthetic oil plant be tween Betliune and Lens, in the Lille area, leaving the refinery in flames. Nine German fighters were destroy ed in the sweep, and 7 British fight ers and one bomber were lost, au thorities said. The Luftwaffe stabbed'back at the south English coast during the day light hours, following up a sharp at tack on Southampton over Monday night. However, an official an nouncement minimized the daylight raid, saying it wa3 limited to two planes which approached the Isle of Wight (near the Portsmouth naval base). One of the planes was destroy ed by RAF fighters and the other damaged, it was announced. It was acknowledged, however, that the night attack on Southamp ton did considerable damage and killed and wounded a number of per sons. The Germans not only show ered down high explosive and incen diaries, but used dive-bssibing tac tics still comparatively rare in the battle of England. One hit -Vvas made on a public air-raid shelter. Substances in Milk Thera are 101 substances in milk but chemists have been unable to put them together and get milk.

GREEN & CO. FORMER EXCHANGE HEAD IS PAROLED FROM SING SING (Continued from Page One) Before the prisoner went behind Sing Sing’s dreary gray walls in a cell block Warden Lewis E. Lawes once described as “the most abominable in the world,” Whitney had a country estate at Bedmin ster, N. J., where he raised blooded horses, cows and dogs. Whitney, whose pride and ur banity were unshaken during the long hearings which followed his guilty plea, and who was described in a probation report at the time of his sentence as a man to whom the notion of personal and financial failure “was apparently inconceiv able” appeared before the parole board today wearing dark trousers, a white shirt and a black tie, the attire of a prisoner assigned to clerical work. The pre-parole report was based on statements from the office of District Attorney Thomas E. Dew ey, interviews with members of Whitney’s family, the prison war den, the head keeper, the head of industries in the prison, the prison pschiatrist, and a chaplain. ^ The sentencing judge, Owen W. Bohan, said he felt Whitney’s “re lease would not be incompatible with the welfare of society.” Whitney will be subject to the parole regulations of the Massa chusetts department of correction, which will follow suggestions of the New York state division of parole. Under New York’s parole regula tions, Whitney must report to his parole officer once each week until April 11, 1948. but the rule could be relaxed to bi-weekly or monthly reports at the division’s discre tion. * KILLED BY LIGHTNING MORGANTON, July 8.—UP>—Lloyd Mike Pearson, 51, was killed last night when lightning struck his farm home south of here.
