"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

to make them work? How can
you deny them work in war
plants or industry without n
closer equalization of wages'"

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

sion and treasury.

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.
