McNutt, war manpower chairman, announced today. A new procedure developed jointly by the army and navy, the war manpower commission, and the U. S. employment serv ice, he said, calls for merely a simple declaration that the ap plicant for a job Is a citizen.

State bureaus of vital statistics have been unable to keep up with the mounting number of requests, with the result, he added, that work on many ur gent war contracts has been de layed.
