MARRIED MEN MUST
Do PRODUCTION WORK
OR co INTOCLASS ONE
Every Man Able to Work
Must Get at Il, Leaving
Light Jobs for Women

The "work or fight" order, soon to
be enforced, win probably have con-
siderable to do with a number of men
in Salem who are married and who
have been given classification by the
local exemption board, which puts them
into classes two, three OF four. This
refers to married men.
The local exemption board has re-
eeived instructions that cases Of with
drawal Of deferred classification arc
to be considered with sympathy and
also with common sense, and that the
board viii be given a positive defini.
tion as to occupations that are nom
productive.
For instance, married man may be
in one of the reproductive lines, such
as waiter at. a hotel or cafe, or en-
gagged in serving drinks. If he viii take
the suggestion of the lccal board and
engage in a productive business or oc-
cupation, his deferred classification
will remain the same. If not, he will
be placed in Glass /.
The government is going after able
bodied registrants who are married and
who are in non-productive lines ard
according to instructions received by
Sheriff w. l. Needham, chairman of
the local board these are:
Persons engaged in serving drinks in
public places or hotels. Women can
do their work.
Persons engaged as elevator oper-
ators, door and carriage men, drivers
of cars of pleasure. Women can do
their work.
Persons engaged in ushering, and
those occupied in games of sport and
amusement, except actual performers.
Persons, which of course means mar
ried men, who are in domestic service
Married men who are sales clerks
and other clerks employed in stores
and other mercantile establishments
This applies to stores where women
could wait on the trade. A married
man in this line of work will be asked
to go into something productive, such
as ship yard work, or have his classi-
fication changed to class l. These
new rules 60 into effect July /, when
married men in the above non-produc-
tive pursuits will probably be asked
to talk it over with the local exemp-
tion board.

Gathering Flour to
Be Shipped to Allies

Efforts are being made today by the
county food administration to collect
all the flour in the hands of the gro
GERS and private individuals that it
may be shipped direct to France. 1t
is thought that about 575 barrels will
be collected and shipped from Salem,
mostly from the mills.
As the matter now stands, no more
families can buy wheat flour. The
farmer may bring his wheat to the mill
and have it custom ground as no new
ruling has been made in this respect.
The baker will continue to bake wheat
flour ON the masis of 60-40 but he will
not be allowed to increase his output,
holding him down to 70 per cent of the
amount Of flour he bought last year
Loggers and hospitals have not been
restricted in the use of wheat products.

Says Hoover Asks Il But
Only Two States Besides
Oregon Follow Advice

In regard to the very important ques-
tion as to whether Mr.. Hoover request
ed that Oregon be put on wheatless
basis, II. W. Steusloff, county food ad-
ministrator, says that Hoover has asked
all states to go on wheatless basis
and that he has put it up to the state
food administrator to handle the prob
lem to best advantage.
Mr.. Steusloff further states that as
all counties in the state had complied
with the request Of w. B. Ayre TO 60
wheatless excepting Claekamas and Ma
rion, he recently had conference with
the food administrator Of Clackamas
county and between them they had
agreed that it was an injustice to other
counties in the state if these two eonn'
ties did not follow suit. Hence it was
decided to put Marion and Clackamas
wheatless, beginning Monday next.
In regard to the almost sugarless con
dition for home use, Mr.. Steusloff says
this also comes from Hoover and
that already parts Of the country have
for some time been on a restricted sug-
ar basis.
Today the stores were selling only
two pounds of sugar to town folks and
five pounds to those living out Of
town. However, for canning purposes,
the old regulations hold good, where
those who need sugar for canning may
buy 100 pounds by signing card
stating IL is to be used for this purpose
only. This is reduced to 25 pounds
according to today's wires,-Ed.)
1t may be added, that although Mr.
Hoover may have requested state food
administrators everywhere to put their
states on wheatless basis, SO far this
has been done only in Oregon, Texas
and Montana,
