By going to school summers at the Union Theological Seminary he mafaaged to cram three years' work into two. "At first, I thought I'd be a lay leader, and do what I could there," he said. "Finally I came to the realization that the Christian min istry would be the most meaning ful life to me." War Claims Commission Resigns Jobs WASHINGTON Ufl The resig nation of all members of the War Claims Commission has been re quested by the White House, it was disclosed Monday. However. Chairman D a n i el Cleary told newsmen he. would re fuse to submit his resignation and said "I don't think the others will, either." All are Democratic ap pointees.

That date, he said, is not until March, 1955.
