At the same time nation-wide, propaganda on nutrition will prepare all citizens for food, shortage^ which may develope as a result of farm i labor shortages and transportation bottlenecks which will interfere with the ordinary^ harvesting, distribution and .. storage" of crops. Local draft boards in rural areas are under heavy pressure to postpone the induction of farmer boys. The labor supply situation is so grave in some sections that Federal manpower agencies have been urged to divert some workers intended for war factory employment-to agriculture. Selective Service plus the lure of high wages jn shipyards and wai pla'nts accounts for the scarcity of farmers. Legislators from rural districts are reciting these tales of woe to administrative officials in hopes of changing current labor recruiting policies. With the War Manpower Board desperately working oft policies which can be successfully enforced with a minimum of friction; it is likely that forced drafts of labor to essential industries will be effective shortly. Studies show that more than 90 per cent of the employees in major wai industries are working in excess of 44 hours per week. In the machinetool plants, the .schedule calls for 60 hours. Second shifts are difficult in certain factories because trained supervisors are not available. Another factor retarding output is the lack of skilled mechanics. It is noteworthy that the question of overtime seldom appears as a block to production. It is additional men that are desperately needed. Government officials claim the biggest profits are being made in the plants that are paying the overtime rates. Total payments for time beyond 40 hours represented alx>ut 20 per cent of weekly pay rolls. ^The-feeling prevails that strong measures will be necessary to obtain the full utilization of workers. It cannot be enforced logically while Isavy continues a voluntary en',i ment olan. If the naval' officials* accept the idea of compulsory service*. which now prevails in the Army, then the way would be cleared to piermit enforced assignment of civilians from non-essential to necessary jobs. The delicate questions of policy involved drafting for government service disclosed in the unwillingness .of the Administration and Congress to handle the extension of the Selective Service Act to boys between 18 and 20 years of age. It is expected that the matter will be placed on the shelf until late in November. With strong threats to draft physicians for military service beginning in July, considerable concern is fen as to the effect on committees. A heavy pull of doctors for duty with the armed services might strjo some areas of expert medical services. Official records disclose that there are approximately 10,000 nurses on duty in the Army and Navy and they have requested an additional 10,000 nursesi before July 1. When the plans are complete for the expansion they are going to need at least 35,000 graduate nurses for active duty'in the Army and Navy. A survey in December revealed 10,000 civilian hospital nursing positions vacant and about 2,700' vacancies in health departments for public health nurses. Estimates today are to the effect there are at least 1^,00© vacant nursing positi^s in civilian hospitals. Public Health Service officials complain that romance is keeping down the list of nurses eligible for military duty. About 45, 000 nurses enrolled in nursirig last year which is an increase of 10,000 oyer what had been admitted the prevfoua year.' .. v v ne£ was served. "Vic was also pjesented with a "gift.
