"NEW YORK, Aug. 22 (IP)
Three American war correspond
ebts and one artist accredited to
the ninth air force in France
have been ordered out of that
theater of war "apparently be
cause their work has not meas
ured up to standards set by
publicity minded ninth air force
officers in the higher ranks,"
thp New York Herald Tribune
WAR THEATER
t: :i ' said today in a copyrighted dis
patch. The correspondents were
; Stanley Frank of the New York
i! '!j Post, Gordon Gammack of the
4'3f Des Moines Register and Lee
McCardell of the Baltimore
6 Sun, and John Grotli, aftist for
Parade. -
rm "The order is the aftermath
if! ': of a long series of threats in-
i ;;if dulged in by certain public re-
fK'i lations officers of the air force,"
!;;.; Tlerald Tribune Correspondent
o.;! Jack Tait wrote. "Correspond-
! ents have been told that they
must confine the bulk of their
activities to coverage of ninth
, air force, news. Those who did
not, it was made clear, would
have to seek reassignment else
where." The order was signed by Col.
Robert Parham, in charge of the
air force's public relations, and
contained no explanation for the
action, the newspaper said.
The Baltimore Sun published
the accouut of the correspond
ents without comment,, but de
tailed in a news story some ot
the coverage given the air force
bv McCardell. At Des Moines,
the Register said it had no com
ment.
The New York Post said in
today's issue that it had pro
tested both, at Washington ana
at suoreme allied headquarters."
Frank, a news story said, "paid
repeated tribute to our airmen
and the excellence of their or
ganization. Ten of his recent
stories about the ninth air force
were listed.
Frank's main effort "natur
ally," the Post said, was to give
"a balanced picture of the battle
for France in its entirety. This
broad view was obviously too
much for the ninth air force
press relations group."
The war department at Wash
ington said it had received no
information concerning the cor
respondents. ' ; - "T .

JOB PROGRAM
LOOMS CLEAR
By MAX HILL
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22 (.P)
If you had gone around asking
people in Washington last winter
what the government was going
to do about helping war veterans
get jobs, you'd have found
answers few and far between.
But an orderly pattern has
loomed through the mist. Ap
parently the. government has the
whole veteran situation fairly
well in hand, and will be reason
ably ready to greet the first big
swarm of returning soldiers
when Germany collapses.
The change began when Maj.
Gen. Lewis B. Hershcy, the se
lective service director, reor
ganized his employment division,
installed Col. Paul Griffith as
chief and directed him to come
to terms with the U. S. employ
ment service. - .
Cause of the deadlock was
that althouah congress had sad
dled selective service with the
responsibility for employment of
veterans, the U. S. employment
service, under Manpower Chair
man Paul V. McNutt, was sit
ting there with 1500 local offices,
ready and eager to do the job.
For eleven years the USES had
maintained a veterans' employ
ment service with a represents-.
tive in every local office.
A formal agreement was
reached, dividing the work in
this manner:
Selective service sees that the
veteran gets his job back if the.
job is still there and if he wants
it
If he doesn't, the USES helps
him get a new job.
However, if he wants to work
for a railroad, he goes' to the
railroad retirement board; on a
farm, to the county agricultural
agent; or for the federal govern
ment, to the civil . service com
mission.' Organizations Plan

SEATTLE, Aug. 22 (IP) Plans

with sponsorship of a Moscow
Seattle flight over "the top of

ington State Press club and the

Seattle, joined in incorporating

position. Dudley M. Brown, one of the
incorporators, said the proposed

years after "the green light on
men and materials. We're mov
ing now because similar plans
are reportedly under way in
Portland and Los Angeles."
