II Is a serious mistake, however
he said, to dismiss the soldiers from
the camps before next spring. when
building work will be more plentiful.
Il think the possibility of influenza

distorted" he added. II don't believe
the prospect of epidemics Of this kind
Is very great. II the soldiers are

Many OF the manufacturers and
producers Of the country, including
the steel men, coal operators and the
brick and tile interests, are exerting
all efforts to obtain the release Of
soldiers who were formerly connected
with their enterprises.
In order to accomplish this aim
under circular No. n. however, 1t is

WASHINGTON. Dec. lathe demobili-

Of 1,55o,OO soldiers in camps and can
tonments now will be vigorously op-
posed by the War Labor Policies
Board, according TO a decision reached
to-day. .. .,.4..
Felix Frankfurter. chairman OF the
board who is one OF the chief ad-
visers OF Secretary Baker on labor
matters, declined to say whether the
boards action will be transmitted to
the War Department in the form of a
request for the-indefinite retention OF
the soldiers in the camps.
The possibility of disturbing exist
ing wage conditions through immedi-
ate release of the soldiers and of Gre
ating surplus of labor in some in
dustrial centres before outdoor con-
struction work starts next spring is
the boards action.
Statements that were made by Mr..
Frankfurter and by Assistant Director
Nathan A. Smyth OF the Federal En-
ployment Service made known the
fact that the wage and labor condi-
tons OF the country and the effect
which an immediate rehabilitation
would have on them had been given
careful consideration, although Mr..
Frankfurter denied the board is at
tempting to create an artificial short
age Of labor.
Reports show Labor Shortage.
The Department OF Labor Is not in
sympathy with keeping the soldiers in
the camps for an indefinite period, it
was stated to-day. Reports received
by the Department this week show the
existence of a serious and growing
lalbOr shortage. Many OF the less es-
sential factories and industries that
have been virtually at a standstill dur
ing the war have not been able to re-
sumo operations because of their in
ability TO get workers. according to the
Department.
Reports to the Department are from
almost every State and relate to ali
industries which employ considerable
numbers OF workers.
The meeting OF the policies board to-
day was held behind closed doors and
was attended by representatives of the
various war labor bureaus, sections
and divisions which have been created
temporarily to handle labor matters
