"sheltering draft dodgers en
gaged In non-essential activities,"
Senator Holman, (R-Ore.) urged
the American Legion and other
patriotic organizations today to
"direct their attention to a thor
ough house-cleaning" of govern
ment agencies.
Speaking at a senate military
committee hearing on the Austin
Wadsworth bill to draft men and
women into war jobs, Holman
expressed "considerable alarm
about the present waste of man
power." "I am particularly alarmed,
he added, "about the wasteage
of manpower by the sheltering
of draft dodgers In federal de
partments engaged In non-essential
activities.
"I wish the American Legion
nd other patriotic organizations
would direct their attention to
a thorough house-cleaning."
Turning to a witness, Morris
F. Devine of Manchester, N. H.,
chairman of the American
Legion's national legislative com
mittee, Holman asked for com
ment on his statement.
"I definitely approve of those
views," Devine replied.
Devine told the committee the
Legion for more than 20 years
has believed in national service
legislation and Is convinced that
enactment of the Austin-Wads-worth
bill will shorten the war.
