Senate bills urge year draft extension and varied pay raises
The Senate Military Committee backed a full year extension of the draft act and considered four pay increase plans for service members. The Gurney bill fixes army strength, sets Navy and Marine caps, and allows monthly reductions. Separate measures would raise enlisted pay, fund officer stipends, or grant a flat 20 percent increase. A House subcommittee favored a sliding scale boost for privates instead of a flat $400 raise. In Lawrence, city officials discussed recreational programs and park improvements tied to the school district’s plan, with council and school board members present.

Stark says he likely consulted Roosevelt on Dutch warning in 1941
Admiral Harold R. Stark testified he probably discussed a December 1941 Dutch warning with President Roosevelt before drafting a proposal to tell Japan not to cross a specified line. He said such a warning would not require U.S. war, due to constitutional limits, and noted uncertainty about Roosevelt’s direct involvement.
