SWEET BRIAR GRADUATION CANDIDATES—These four Washington girls are among the 89 can- didates for degrees at Sweet Briar commencement exercises June 11 at' Sweet Brier, Va. Ambassa~ dor Hu Shih of China will make the address to graduates. Mrs. Roosevelt Urges All o Contribute To Red Cross Drive Davis and Ta(ylor Also Make Appeal In Broadcast Contributions to the Red Cross war relief fund will be received and acknowledged in the news columns if sent to the cashier's office at The Star. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt yes- terday urged all Americans to give generously to the American Red Cross war reliet drive. Mrs. Roosevelt spoke from the White House over the combined net- works of N. B. C, C. B. 8. and Mu- tual on an hour program donated to the Red Cross, in which leading radio and theatrical stars partici- pated. Tells of Widespread Need. ‘“Today,” she said, “there are more people suffering and homeless and in need of the care which only the Red Cross can give them than in any other period of recent history.” Every organization which has been working overseas in invaded countries, she explained, is now taxed to the limit of its resources. We must give now, she said, as we have never given before because the | alleviating of human suffering is in part our answer to the challenge to our belief in civilization. “If we turn away from the need of others,” she warned, “we align ourselves with those forces which are bringing about this suffering and which we must eventually try to_defeat.” Norman H. Davis, chairman of the American Red Cross, and Wayne | 7 Chatfield Taylor, American Red Cross representative in Europe, speaking from Paris, joined Mrs. Roosevelt in painting the horrors of invasion and the desperate need of millions of men, women and chil- dren driven from their homes. Mr. Taylor reported that thou- sands of refugees were arriving in the vicinity of Paris with torn feet and gaping wounds. Many of them are bringing their dead with them, he said. Countless parents have lost their children, he added. Many other parents know they will never see their children again or their homes. Paints Tragic Picture. Warning that “if we fail, the American Red Cross must haul down its banner and humanity is blacked out,” Mr. Davis asked his listeners to picture what a “blitz- krieg” invasion of their own home towns would mean. “In panic, the family gathers to flee to the open highways out of the town,” he said. “You join a terror-stricken line of townspeople * * * men and women you have known for years lie dead or wounded along the way * * * babies wail for food and are terrified by the blast of guns and the unearthly screech of sirens.” Farley Will Let Future Answer on Presidency By the Associated Press. ATLANTA, May 27.—Postmaster General Farley is going to let the future give the answer to questions of whether he ever will be President. Awarded an honorary degree by Oglethorpe University, Mr. Farley was praised by Dr. William States Jacobs of Houston, Tex, as a “great American” and a presidential Pprobability. Dr. Jacobs recalled that two others similarly honored by Oglethorpe be- came Presidents, Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D. Roosevelt. “And may history repeat itself,” he exclaimed as he presented Mr. Farley for his degree at last night's ceremonies. The postal chief smiled broadly. “The future,” he said, “will have to give you the answers.” Glenn Stewart, Easton (Md.) in- dustrialist, was among six others given honorary degrees. / U. S. Memorial Rites Conducted at Nancy By the Associated Press, NANCY, May 27—In spite of re- peated bombings of Nancy, the city government did not forget American Memorial Day. It chose the Sunday preceding the May 30 holiday, hung a large Ameri- can flag from the balcony of City Hall, and decorated with flowers and French and American flags the tomb of Lt.

Hoover to Talk Tonight On National Defense Swiss Army Stresses Gymnastic Training By the Associated Press. BERN.—Swiss Generalissimo Henrl Guisan was so impressed by an exhibition by army gymnasts he saw while reviewing the 3d Swiss Infantry Division that he has given orders for the creation of “elite” companies of athletes from all units of the Swiss Army. They are to be trained in special schools. These picked units of athletes, which are to include officers, non- Commissioned officers and men, will train at field sports, ' rughy, basket ball, ski slalom and many other sports in addition to their regular army training. Their eventual place in the Swiss fighting forces has not yet been ascertained. They may move into key frontier positions as crack ‘“cover” companies or may be divided later and dispersed among other units as sports in- structors.
