.PACE TEN HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON . aeaw -I I HI vi l.lA :..lon nil INCREASE IN i IN T POSTWAR NEED 1 WASHINGTON, June 12 (Pi After victory, says the senate's SDecial Dostwar planning com mittee, business and industry in the United States must employ 8 to 10 million more people than have ever been employed before in peacetime. A report presented today by Chairman George (D-Ga.) esti mated that even if 2 or 3 mil lion men are retained in -the armed forces, full employment must-be available for between 54 and 56 million people. This compares with the pre-war peaK Of approximately 48 million em ployed, reached in 1929, 1937 and again in 1940, J "This country never had and never will have real prosperity without full employment, the report declared, adding that the huge number of jobs that must be provided "presents a chal lenge almost as grave as the challenge of war." Present employment in the country was estimated at about 90,000,000 persons, exclusive of those in the armed forces. The dvertime work they're putting in was reckoned the equivalent of an additional 5,000,000 per sons. , t After the war, the committee said, 4 or 5 million of the war porkers will want to return to school, or withdraw from the labor market entirely. Off-setting, this, of course, will be the Veterans discharged from the army and navy, t 'The first six months follow ing final victory will see the greatest accession to the civil ian labor market," the report stated. "Beyond doubt this will be the most critical portion of the transition period. 'The armed forces will be Semobolized at a rate of from (00,000 to 600,000 per month. All war production will cease, lost of the workers in the mu nitions industries will be re leased during that period. "The iirplane plants and shipyards Will operate little, if at all. The automobile plants will be in brocess of conversion. The -forces that created the war-boom areas will terminate. The avail able jobs in those areas will not provide for the workers in ' them. This inevitably will leave large pools of unemployed in r' ar-boom areas, regardless of he. over-all national . employ ment situation." ,t. . j The committee declared the Only answer to the full employ ment problem is "a much great er gross national production than this country has ever pro duced in peacetime." . . r-'-" ' i) i 5 Women of TimorLaut," East Indies, are compelled to keep one eye closed in the presence of men.

June-U m President Roosevelt told con gress today that as a final nazi defeat approaches "the fury of their insane desire to wipe out the Jewish race in Europe con tinues undiminished." "This is but one example," Mr. Roosevelt said in transmit ting a report on arrangements for caring for war refugees. Many Christian groups .also are being murdered. "Knowing that they have lost the war, the nazis are deter mined to complete ' their pro gram of mass extermination. This program is but one mani festation of Hitler's aim . to sal vage from military defeat vic tory for nazi principles ' the very principles which this -war must destroy unless we - shall have fought in vain." The president outlined re cently-completed arrangements to bring about 1000 refugees to this country for temporary housing in a military camp near Oswego, N. Y. After ' the war, he said, these refugees, mostly women and children, will be returned to their homeland. . Mr. Roosevelt said the work of the war refugee board, com posed of the secretaries of state. treasury, and war, has brought new hope to the oppressed peo ples ot fiurope. From various sources, he con tinued, he has received word that thousands "have been giv en the will and desire to con tinue by the concrete manifes tation of. this government's de sire to do all possible to aid ana rescue tne oppressed. Facilities for carine for war refugees in southern Italy have become so overtaxed, he added, To a responsible man with 2 or 3 children It's no fun being a breadwinner unless you've got a real job.
