Longer Bar Draft Board
Advised.
Washington, Aug. 20 (Pi
Selective service registrants
rated as having minor physical
defects officially became eligi
ble for military service today
with elimination of the 1-B clas
sification.
The selective service system
Announced abolishment of the
"limited service" class yester
day although the army, nearing
exhaustion of the pool of 1-A
registrants, recently called for
Induction of men In the 1-B
group.
Consequently, selective serv
ice said, reclassification of men
n this group will begin Septem
ber 1 and will be completed Jan
uary 1. They will be rated as
1-A, the group free of any
known physical defect, or placed
In Class 4-F comprising those
totally unfit for service.
During reclassification, how
ever, selective service added, no
more than one-fourth of the 1-B
registrants in any local board
will be placed in Class 1-A in
any single month. After their
Induction, the army will deter
mine whether to assign them to
full or limited duties.
Local boards were cautioned
that while physical deficiencies
constituted the only basis for the
original 1-B classification, the
status of the registrants may
have changed and possible de
ferment for dependency, family
relationship or occupation
should be considered.

One high official of the gov

Washington, Aug. 20. JP)
Positive and prompt action to
forestall any war production
shutdowns due to lack of ma
terials appeared imminent today
in consonance with Donald M.
Nelson's newly enunciated "get
tough" policy.
The Droductlon chief was ex-
ipected to give his regional di
rectors throughout the country
power to issue "quickie" prior
ity ratings to provide needed
small quantities of materials or
parts.
Thus holders of war contracts
threatened with stoppage or cur
tailment of output because of an
interruption in the flow of ma
terials or a breakdown of ma
chinery, could obtain readily
the materials needed to keep
going. "
Informed officials who re
quested that they not be quoted j
by name said such a plan, if
adopted, undoubtedly would put
strict limits on the amount of
materials at the disposal of the
regional officers.
The Economic Outlook, pub
lished by the CIO, said short
ages djie to inefficient manage
ment by the steel industry had
caused a considerable number
of plants to shut down.
Official Washington watched
closely for more drastic action
from Nelson, who yesterday
made it clear that he had taken
his gloves off for a finish fight
on the question of his adminis
tration ot the war effort.
"From now on any one who
crosses my path is going to have
his head taken off," he said in
discussing statements from con
gressional and other sources
that the War Production board
had mishandled its job.

Wilmington, Del., Aug. 20.
(P) The Hercules Powder Co.
announced today that it was
producing a new plastic which
could replace rubber in hun
dreds of everyday articles.
Base for the new plastic is
ethyl cellulose, manufactured j
from cotton lintcrs or wood ,
pulp, common salt and alcohol ,
from natural gas or from fer
mented farm products. j
Ethyl cellulose has been in
production for some time at the
company's chemical cotton plant
at Hopewell, Va,
L. N. Bent, vice president.
said the new plastics were not
now suitable for tires or Inner
tubes because they were inferior
to natural rubber in bounce or
resiliency. He said they would
tear more readily than rubber
and were not as elastic.
