Detroit, Mich. (U.PJ The gov
ernment's re-alignment of war
production schedules has eased,
at least temporarily, the antici
pated labor shortage in this vital
industrial area.
Industry leaders forecast
downward revision of estimates
of required labor supply be
cause of two factors:
I For strategical reasons,
the government's concentration
on some types of war products
at the expense of others.
I Shortages of material.
War production by the auto
motive industry was expeciea m
total $22,000,000 daily by Janu
ary 1, 1943, equivalent to an an
nual rate of $8,000,000,000, be
fore changes in schedules were
made by government leaders at
Washington.
Produce Lass Trucks
Although war production In
the industry is at a record level,
there has been a tapering off in
output of certain items, includ
ing trucks. This change of em
phasis in the production pro
gram is expected to reduce the
industry's January, 1943, output
below previous schedules and
fnrr a downward revision of
mnlnvment estimates.
The U. S. employment service
recently forecast that employ
ment in Wayne county (Detroit)
would total approximately 743,
000 in February, 1943, an in
crease of 87,000 over present
levels. This total was expected
to reach 778,000 when the De
troit area war plants reached
peak production sometime dur
ing 1943.
George Romney, managing di
rector of the Automotive coun
cil for War Production, said ttie
change in war production sched
ules would relieve the antici
pated labor shortage for the pre
sent and eliminate need for
drastic manpower legislation un
der consideration by the govern
ment. C. E. Wilson, president of
General Motors Corp., one of
the largest employers of labor
in the county, already has ex
pressed opposition to job freez
ing or compulsory shifting of
war workers from one plant to
another. He recommended en
larged training programs and a
longer work week as methods
for possible solution of the man
rjower Droblem.
Employment of women thus
far has been comparatively light
in the Detroit area. According
to the federal employment serv
ice, there now are 57,656 women
at work in Detroit area war
plants, nearly 12,000 of them
hired during October. John L.
Craig, director of the service
here, said present estimates re
veal that nearly 100,000 addi-
tional women must accept war
plant or essential non-factory
iobs during the next year.
Nearly 200,000 women in this
area already have expressed
willingness to accept wartime
employment. ' Many of them
now are receiving training for
war work in free vocational
courses conducted by school
boards throughout the Detroit
area.

At the- regular December
meeting of the board of direct
or of First Federal Savings and
Loan Association of Medford, a
3Vi dividend was declared for
the past six months payable Jan
uary 1, 1943. Commenting on
the dividend, R. F. Kyle, secretary-manager
of the association,
stated that the rate was higher
than most Oregon savings and
loans were paying and that Med
ford and vicinity had been fortu
nate in having defense activity
which had caused new loans be
cause of the increased real es
tate activity. The dividend trend
is definitely downward and divi
dends of 2Vi and 3 will be
common in the future providing
the war emergency continues.
Kyle said.
The board voted to support the
war effort to the fullest extent
Dy encouraging investors to Duy
war bonds and for the associa
tion to invest its available money
in war bonds.
The armed forces have claimed
two of the active directors. Cap
tain Wm. H. Fluhrer of the Unit
ed States Air Force and Max
Peirce, lieutenant in the United
States Naval Reserve. Resolu
tions were passed deploring their
absence and wishing them good
luck and provisions were made
for them to resume their duties
with the association when the
war is won.

Wall St. Report
New York, Dec. 16. (U.PJ
The 1942 year-end recovery got
under way on the stock market
today with sales volume the best
since November 9, and prices
of the industrial group reaching
levels fractionally under the
year's highs.
A smart recovery in railroad
issues aided market sentiment
and generated . buying in other
sections.
Many issues, mostly in indus
trials, made new highs for the
year and longer. Peace shares
again fared better than war is
sues and activity centered in
low-priced stocks.
