"West coast farmers fare dis aster unless we can find means of importing l!ifj,000 Mexican la borers to belp with the har vests," Downey declared, but he added: "1 doubt If compulsory regi mentation of groups to work on farms at low pay will prove sat isfactory. How are you going to make them work? How can you deny them work in war plants or industry without n closer equalization of wages'" Mexicans, Japs Aiding. President Koosevelt told his nresK conference Ih.'it 3 000 Mevl. cans had crossed into Arizona I and California , In the last three weeks to help save crops vl)al to the united nutions' war- effort, a job for which he said they show ed great enthusiasm. , In some places, such as the Montana sugar beet fields, he said, . Japanese brought from concentration camps were help ing with the harvest, On the queslton of manpower legislation, he reminded report ers that conditions vary In differ ent parts of the country, and legislation that would be all right in October might not be in No vember. Senator Austin's bill would put the whole problem up to the selective service system, to which the manpower commission and other agencies would refer their requirements, Just as the army now does. Sixty six districts In the eoun-! try were listed today by the war manpower commission as labor shortage areas.fln which, no war production contracts should be placed provided facilities for meeting the production require ments ore "available In other areas." The commission also classed another 64 districts as areas of "anticipated" labor shortage. The commission recommended that these be avoided in placing con tracts which have a maximum delivery date of more than six months. The labor shortage areas are located principally in the Pad- j fie coast and northeastern states. They Include: Washington state Seattle, Tacoma, Bremerton, Spokane and Vancouver, j Ore gonPortland. California San Diego. Utah Ogden and Salt Lake City; and Wyoming Chey enne, i ' -' The areas of anticipated labor shortages Included: California Los Angeles and. San Fran cisco, i The commission also designat ed 97 areas as having labor sur pluses and listed them as areas "in which war contracts should be placed." In the west, they In cluded Hillings, Mont. Commission Chairman Paul V. McNutt said the designation of the areas was requested by the war production board as a guide to the war procurement agencies army, navy, maritime commis sion and treasury. Here From Los Angeles Mr. and Mrs. Robert li. Law, of Los Angeles, are making their tem porary home here while attend ing to business affairs. Russians Keeping Upper Hand at Stalingrad (Continued from page 1.) group on the steppci, but were driven back to second line posi tions. Seven successive German coun terattacks in an attempt to regain lost ground in unothcr sector were repulsed, the army newspa per said, and the Russians con tinued to improve the positions from which the nazl drive Into Stalingrad Is menaced sharp'y. (The strength of Marshal Timo shenko's relief assault from the north was indicated In the Ger man high command's communi que which said the Russian on slaught had been resumed with "fresh, strong infantry nd tank forces," and reported -in Russian tanks destroyed In the developing battle.) Red Star said that rains had fallen on the Stalingrad battle field since Sunday, and that the present German drive of two In fantry divisions massed Into a single salient was only ubnut half the strength of earlier German attempts to drive the defenders out of the city. Nazis Lose Heavily Battle losses of the week-old drive upon Stalingrad were de clared tb have cost German di visions as many as 70 per cent of their men in killed, wounded and missing. Of the overnight fighting for the Volga river city, the noon communique said: "Men of one unit repulsed sev eral attacks and hurled back the enemy to his Initial positions. About a company of Infantry was 'wiped out. Our guards' mortar gunners set two tanks afire, si lenced three artillery batteries and wiped out about a company of enemy Infantry." Soviet scouts were reported to have blown up six nazl strong points northwest of Stalingrad, destroying a number of guns and killing about 100 men. Says U. S. Ready To Strike Red Star asserted today that the United States is ready now in men and equipment to open active military operations. (The Russian press has expres sed the view with increasing fre quency recently that Russia's al lies have the strength to under take second front operations at once to relieve German pressure on the soviet forces.) "Successful fulfilment of war industry problems, growth of the army and airforce and accelera ted naval construction create all the necessary conditions for act ive operations oy tne . united States," Red Star said. "They have enough men amL machines. As to the training an g) operative ability of the army, this can be determined only in armed struggle." Here Tuesday W. P. Weaver, of Myrtle Creek, was a business visitor in this city yesterday. LEARN THE TRUTH ABOUT B on EL no nr.is Nobody U cure to escape. And roundworms can cause real trouble Inside you or your child.
