OREGON ELIGIBILITY RULES VOTED LESS STRICT By FUSS MEWLAND SAN FRANCISCO, June 16 UPl Drastic changes in the eligl bility rulei of the Pacific Coast conference were voted today by faculty athletic members who practically let down the bars in order to continue football at its highest possible peak. The 10 school circuit agreed to permit any student coming under the army or navy programs to . compete in any sport. This means that a player who had previously had professional football experience, if he enroll ed in one of the military pro grams and assigned to a school by one of the military branches. could play against those of strict ly amateur status. Rules pertaining to civilian students also were modified to include graduate students and special students as football elig ibles. The conference last year voted to permit freshmen to en gage in varsity competition. A few exceptions were noted. however, in the case of civilian students. Those who have en gaged in professional sports will not be eligible. A civilian stu dent, however, competing on the same team with a professional enlisted in the military programs will not lose his amateur status. Civilian students who have exhausted four years of athletic competition, likewise will be in eligible, as will student previ ously declared ineligible and not yet reinstated to good standing To be eligible for athletic competition all civilian students must carry at least 12 units of work.

Under the plan Japanese would be prevented from return ing to the Pacific coast during the war. Control of all Jap anese in the United States would be transferred from civilian au thority to the army. Japanese would be barred from combat units. Every able bodied Japanese male would be placed in agriculture in interior sections of the country under strict army control. Japanese farm implements, cars and tires on the Pacific coast would be re leased for war-time use under the law of eminent domain. JAPS PREPARED, PREMIER SAYS IN OIETJALK (Continued From Page One) Burmese-Indian frontier and in the Pacific. "Thus," he said, "the war situ ation has become increasingly; tense and battles which repeat edly take place are more grim and terrific." The diet, which has no voice in the formulation of Japanese policy and is little more than a J rubber stamp for legislation de cided upon by To jo and his mili tary advisers, was not permitted to question the premier concern ing his report on the war. Tojo asserted that the occu pied regions of East Asia were giving Japan the "utmost coop eration" to bring the war to a successful conclusion and prom ised that Japan would exert every effort to help India "expel and eliminate Anglo-Saxon influ ences, which are the enemy of India in every true sense of the word." The premier also promised the Philippines "independence" within the year and said that a new "independent" Burmese state would be set up soon. . Confidence He did not elaborate on these promises, but observers recalled that at the last session of the diet he had promised Burma in-, dependence with the qualifies-' tion that she must continue! thereafter to "contribute to thej creation of a new world order in! close concert with Japan." Tojo expressed confidence In' ultimate victory by Japan andj her axis partners, and told the diet: "Our strategic position to as sure victory in greater East Asia is being strengthened day' by day, with the vast resources of the region being rapidly con verted into our fighting power." A Berlin broadcast, quoting from the Japanese premier's speech, said he "promises to fight shoulder to shoulder with Germany and Italy and their oth er allies in ever closer coopera tion and assistance until common victory is won. "I am firmly convinced of the success of the brilliant strategy of Germany and Italy," he was quoted as telling the diet.

At one time Brown said that if living costs remain stationary, a projected $430,000,000 subsidy to offset decreases in the retail price of butter, meats and event ually coffee would "do the job." He added: "But if costs increase, and I fear they will. I think it will be necessary to go much fur ther." Pressed by committeemen for a specific amount, the price con trol chief said he thought that "the president's $1,500,000,000 program is what is necessary if we want to hold to the Septem ber 15. 1942 levels.' Subsidy Argument Challenged by Taft to show authority for the payment of subsidies to hold down retail prices. Brown replied that it would be impossible to admin ister the price control act ef fectively unless such action is taken. He said retail prices could be lowered by paying a subsidy to the farmer through the pack ers. 'This subsidy will not increase production by one pound," Taft snapped. "It will prevent us from doing what we have the legal right to do rolling back the price at the farm," Brown replied warm ly. He said he is certain con gress doesn't want to follow the latter course. CHICAGO. June 16 W) The nation's armed forces, says the war meat board, are in "critical" need of beef, and the primary ob jective of the newly organized agency of the war food adminis tration is to provide an adequate supply of meat to the military services. At its second meeting since organization, the board yester day discussed all phases of the meat situation, including plans for enforcement of a recent WFA order which will mean cut in the supply of beef for civilian consumption. Commenting on the beef situa tion, as related to the military services, the board said: "So critical has the need for beef by the armed forces become that purchasing agents at the armys 24 buying centers scat tered throughout the country are ready to accept any quantity down to one full carcass of beef or veal meeting army specifica tions. Labor Leader Acts Outright Treason, Official Declares WASHINGTON, June 16 VP) Representative Anderson (R-. Calif.) accused two California labor leaders, Harry Hook and D. F.

Pet erson, former Portland food broker, as price specialist in the food section of the district OP A was announced today by Direc tor Richard G. Montgomery. Pet erson recently received an hon orable discharge from the navy. EPIC STORY TOLD E (Continued From Page One) he said, "I am convinced that we are in the midst of one of the greatest and most powerful developments in history the development of an almost in credible striking power by means of sircraft." " . . . I can report to you that from now on expenditures for our air force will exceed by far the expenditures for any other single military category, reach ing before the end of 1943 an annual rate of soma tens of bil lions of dollars." From Price Administrator Prentiss M. Brown came the as sertion that price control meas ures had saved the government $25,800,000,000- by the end of 1942, and- that that amount would swell to $70,000,000,000 by lie end of 1943 "if prices art held at current levels." In the face of mounting con gressional opposition to use of subsidies to keep down the cost of living, the OPA chief told the committee that it would be im possible to get prices back to their September 1942 level with out their "substantial use." His opinion drew from Chair man Cannon (D-Mo.) the observa tion that "we cannot escape the fact that congress has repeatedly in the last few weeks, three of four times by a record vote and overwhelming majorities, indi cated its emphatic disapproval of subsidies." Rubber Director William Jef fers reported that all the syn thetic rubber plants, should be in operation and producing by the end of the year, and that he was counting on an output of about 800,000 long tons of syn thetic rubber next year. He declared that there would be at the end of this year about 140,000 tons of synthetic end crude rubber, and estimated that production of synthetic rubber by early autumn of 1944 would reach the point where it could supply normal demands. There was strong intimation, too, that the nation is in for some new rationing programs, but just when they will go into effect was left for speculatiou. Cannon noted that the OPA justi fications called for several new programs. In charge of rationing for OPA, Louis J. Kroeger reported that there were eight under con templation, six of which are con tingent upon directives yet to be issued. While both he and the committee shied away from dis cussing their nature in fear that they be upset by advance notice, he hinted that one of them may deal with coal. "Conditions being what they are at present." he told the com mittee, "we have some plans under way here with respect to coal. Now, whether or not coal is going to have to be rationed is a question of many determina tions. . . . But should it become necessary to ration coal, then, certainly, the coming up of an other winter makes it imperative that we go to work right away and develop that program."

Shortly after the filing of the suit, Miss O'Neill, with whom friends said they had seen Chap lin, declared that she was ac quainted with the comedian but had seen him only in the pres ence of her mother, Mrs. Agnes O'Neill.

Senator Bridges in-n.n.; toia the senste yesterday that Davis was "trying to silence the press to cover the sins of maladmin istration on the part of tha new deal in the war effort." He said the newspaper reporters In Washington were to be "com mended, not criticized, for their outstanding effort . . . their masterful accomplishment of a difficult task." Bridges said Davis was ob jecting, perhaps, because "they have uncovered some news about Washington which does not look too well outside of Washington." n...i. .irintf tlm Amerl- Asnvia, - m - can Newspaper Guild, declared that capital newsmen wrr u. looklng the big story of the ,niinn while oaying attention to Interdepartmont bickerings.
