On August 1, the supplying of war
Industries wit lironimon labor wan
centralized In the IT. fl Employment
Service In the Department of Labor,
and all Independent recruiting of
common labor by manufacturer
having a payroll of more than 100
men will be diverted lo the U. 8.
Employment Service. Thl I In ac
cordance with the decision of the
War Labor Pollclna Board and ap
proved by the PrerM.-nt en June 17.
(Tha War Labor I'nllrloa Board I
War, Navy, and Agricultural Dcpart
X mentw, the Shipping Board nnd the
Wit Industries Board, and the Kooil.
Pual, and Railroad Administrations
Id chairman I Felix Frankfurter,
aaslstant to the Hecretary of Ibor
The above action waa found neoes
aary to overcome a perilous shortage
of unskilled labor In war Induatrleo
This shortage waa aggravated by an
almost universal practice of stealing
and poaching.
While tha restrictions against the
private employment of labor apply
only to common labor at the preaent
time, these restrictions will, as soon
a possible, be extended to Include
killed labor. In the meantime, re
crulting of skilled labor for war pro
duction wll bo subject to federal reg
ulations now being prepared.
This drastic chanuge In the Nn
lion's labor program has been found
ass ary In order to protect the em
ployer and th aemployad, to conserve
tha labor supply of (ho communities
and to out down unnacaaaary and ex
pansive labor turn-over (which In
soma cases, la a shjgh aa 100 par cant
a week), and to Increase the produc
tion of eeentlale.
While non-asantlal Industries will
be drawn upon to supply the neces
sary labor for war work, the with
drawal will be conducted on an equit
able basis In order to protect the In
dividual employer aa much as possi
ble Under the operating method
adopted, tha cpualr)' haa been divid
ed Into thirteen federal dUtrlctH.
each district In charge of a superin
tendent of tha V 8. Employment
Service Tha State within each dis
trict ar in turn In charge of a State
Director, who has full control of the
service within his slate.
In each community there la being
formed a local community labor
board, consisting of a representative
of employers and a representative of
th employed Thla board will have
Jurisdiction over recruiting and dltt-
trlbutlug labor In ila locality
A survey of tha labor requirements
Is being made, and In order Ibat each
community may be fully protected,
rulings have been Issued that no la
bor ahall be transported out of any
community by the U. 6. Employment
ServUe without the approval of the
State Director! nor ahall any labor
be removed by tha Service from oue
State to another without the approval
at lb U. 8. Employment Service at
Washington Every effort will be
mad to djacoara- any movement
from community U epuiniunlty 0r
state by any other service.
Thl labor program ha tha appro
al of all producing Departments of
th Uovernmeat. through th War
Labor Policies Board.
It la understood that farm labor
will b protected, for the Industrial
program distinctly Includes special
effort to keep th farmer supplied
with labor
Tha requirement that unskilled la
bor must b raorulud through th
sol agency of th U. 8 Employment
Service doe not at present apply in
th following five cases
1. Labor which 1 not directly or
Indirectly ollcltd.
t. Labor for th railroads.
t. Farm labor to b recruited
la accordance with existing arrange
menu with the Department of Agrt
oulture. 4. Labor for non-war work.
6. Labor for eatabllshmanta
who maximum force doe not ex
ceed one hundred
When the aurvey of labor require
ment has been made and tha aggre
gate demand for unskilled labor In
war work la found, each state will b
assigned a quota, representing the
common labor to be drawn from
among men engaged In non-essential
Industrie In that stale
These Bute quotas will In turn
be distributed amoug localities
Within each locality, employers In
noa war work, will be asked to dis
tribute the local quota from lime
to time among themselves. Quotas
by localities and Individual are to be
a eg. ted aa readily aa they are for
Liberty Loan and Red Croat cam- )
palgna. This plan of labor quotaa It
a protection for all communities.
The object la to keep any commun
ity from being drained of labor, and
to use local aupply, a far aa possi
ble, for local demand. The situa
tion, however, la such that In certain
ease some men may have to b
transported over long distance.
You will note from the above out
line that thla I hi probably the most
drastic action that the Government
haa taken alnce putting the National
Army draft Into effect. The absolute
necessity for this program can ho
seen when It Is realized that In Plttn-
burg, for Instance, there are adver
tisements calling for men to go to
Detroit; while In Detroit street earn
there are potters calling for men to
go to Pittsburg. Thla same condi
tion It apparent all over the United
States and In consequent shifting of
labor a great part of our war effort
Is dlaalpated.
Because It la only through Urn
pre of th Nation that thtt matter
ran be fully presented to the people,
we are asking that you lay thla mat
ter fully and frankly before your
reader ahowlng them that this ac
tion Is taken aa a war measure In
order to protect not only employers
and the employed, but communities
as well.
Yours respectfully,
J. B. Densmore,
Director Ceneral.
