Fighting man power Is needed on both sides of the world as. the Intensity of the war Increases. War production manpower Is. needed to provide more shells, mor bombs, more small arms ammunition, and to speed up our own robot bomb program. ... The recommendations contain ed in the Byrnes renort, coupled wiin the emphasis given this sub ject In the president's message to congress on Jan. 6. will undoubt edly lead to specific action. Mili tary ape men classified as 4-F will be inducted into the armv in accordance with very drastically lowered physical standards for limited service. Under orders nl readv Issued.'
