TO PLACE WOMEN IN
N0N-EssENT|AL JOBS
NEW GOVERNMENT AGENCY TO
TRANSFER MEN no WAR
INDUSTRIES.

Machinery designed to force men
out of non-essential employment ana
muster women of the nation to take
their places, was put in motion this
week by 1000 community labor
boards reaching into every section OF
the country.
The boards are acting under de-
tailed instructions from the govern.
ment, working through the United
States employment service.
Each board soon will publish lists
Of industries in its locality in which
men should be replaced by women.
The lists will be based on surveys on
all industrial plants in each boards
district. The surveys will be minute.
Each job will be studied to determine
whether a woman can fill it.
Publication of the lists is expected
to cause employers to comply and
substitute women as a result of the
moral pressure thus exerted. Where
moral pressure fails stronger meas.
ures will be taken. The employment
service, working through the war in
dustries board, has power to shut of
the supply of raw materials from any
plant.
This move Is result of the en-
larged army program. under which
four million men will be sent tt
France by next June. 1t is expected
to weed out of non-essential employ
ments every man in the nation. Tht
result will be the probable induction
of hundreds of thousands of womeI
not only into essential war industries
but into munitions factories, as well
officials say the numbers Of womei
may run into millions.

where renegade Latin-Americans

Further investigation revealed that
the principal operating points in the
United States by the Latin Germanic
spies were Key West, Tampa and New

The information they gathered
would have been especially useful to
Germany, because Of the recent trade
agreement between this country and
Spain, whereby we were to ship her
numerous commodities in return for
certain supplies to be sent to the
American expeditionary forces in
France. This would necessarily in
crease American sailings to Spanish
ports, and information concerning
these would have given the subma-
