Major General Hershey, Selective
Service Deputy Director, speaking
In Lafayette, Indiana, said that mis-
guided patriotism of employers was
allowing many men to be drafted
who are more useful in Industry.
Employers and registrants should
not hesitate to appeal far classifi
cations. he said.
"All of us should carefully consid
er where we are best fitted to serve,"
General Horshy said. “It is crtainly
neither desirable or necessary that
each man dedicate himself to a
future In the armed forces.”
Selective Service Headquarters di
rected Immediate classification of
the 10,000,000 remaining registrants
In order to obtain complete data on
skilled workers and potential sol
diers. and amend its regulations to
permit induction of some of the reg
istrants previously barred because of
compnritively minor criminal rec
ords.
General Hershey proposed amend
ment of the Selective Service Act
to Congress to allow deferment by
age groups so that those selected are
of an age that will permit them to
serve effectively In the reserve for
ces for ten years, as now required. He
said only 11 per cent of the men In
ducted before March 1 were from 31
to 36 years and the greatest num
ber were from 18 to 27.
LABOR TRAINING
President Roosevelt asked Cong
ress for $158,000,000 to train 3,000.-
000 additional defense workers, of
whlch 268,000 would be trained In
engineering, 10,000 in chemistry,
physics, and production supervision.
I and 500, 000 in courses teaching
rural youths Industrial skills.
DEFENSE PLANTS
OPM announced the Government,
up to March 30, committed Itself
to pay for 331 new defense factor
ies, costing an average of $5.750.000
each and estimated the number of
plants reached 904, costing an av
erage of $729,000 each.
SUBCONTRACTING
Francis J. Trecker of the Defense
Contract Service, speaking In. San
Francisco, said that not more than
50 per cent of the nation’s machines
are being used In defense produc
tion. He said If contractors do not
voluntarily farm out their orders,
sub-contracting would be made man
datory because there Is so much
work to be done all machines must
be used.
LABOR DISPUTES
The Defense Mediation Board an
nounced settlement of five strikes,
including controversies Involving 61
plants and 16,000 employees of the
