Yalta to prove that President
Roosevelt promised $10,000,

Gen. Joseph T. McNarney, mili

Youth Escapes
Death At Lake

Grants Pass youth, escaped
death or serious injury Sunday
when he lost his footing on the
hard packed, icy snow lining
the crater wall at Crater lake,
down which the trail to the
shore of the lake switches back

Knapp, reaching the second
switchback across the snow
field Just below the rim of the
crater, decided to take a short
cut to the water over the snow
slide which slopes only 30 de
grees from the vertical to the
water below, according to the
rangers. The short cut proved
exceedingly short, both in dis
tance and time, as Knapp took
only a few steps when his feet
went out from under him and
he became a human toboggan.
In describing the young man's
fall, park service employes said:
"Down, down he slid with
ever increasing speed. A large
rock loomed up through the
snow ahead. Unable to bypass
it, he plowed feet first Into the

Truman OK's
19-29 Draft
WASHINGTON, July 16 P)
President Truman today ap
proved a selective service rec

through 29 be deemed "accep
table" for drafting.
The minimum of 19 is in line
with recently enacted legisla
tion which forbada the drafting
of 18-year-o!ni.
The top of 29, however, is
several years higher than the
age beyond which the armed
services have been desirous of
going. Few, if any, men over
26 have been drafted since V-J
Day.
At the same time, the 29
year age is far below the maxi
mum now permitted by law
through 44. (The law exempts
all fathers).
Congress has been told by
army officials that the army
plans no draft calls during July
and August, relying instead on
volunteers.
The war department said Sat
urday that it may be necessary
in the future "to consider the
induction of men through age
35" but it had not recommend
ed doing this. The statement
followed reports from an offi
cial close to draft policy that
he understood such a recom

made.

today rejected the senate OPA

conference committee for a new
