MILLION MEN ARE
PUT AT NEW JOBS
BY WORK OR FIGHT

Washington. D. C, July "A
million men of draft age have been
shifted from their old Jobs to jobs
directly connected with winning the
war as a result OF the work or
fight order promulgated five weeks
ago, according To Provost Marshal
General CrowdeT.
Women have taken the places of
500. 600 OF these men up to the pres
ent time, the provost marshal gen
eraI estimates. The law became eff
fective yesterday, although in real
ty it has been in effect for some
tine and returns relating to its
observance have come to General
Crowder from all parts Of the cOun-
try.
After July / every man on the
draft lists who cannot show that he
IS working at a job which is essen
tial 10 winning the war is subject
to immediate transfer into the
army.
The rule, however, is to be tenn
pered with mercy in many in
stances where a sudden change
would work hardships on depend
ents. Local boards are to pass
upon each individual case, applying
general rules given for their HIid-
ance by General Crowder.
The shipbuilding yards and mu-
milton plants have attracted many
men who have changed occupations
under the work or fight order 4
relatively small number, reports
show, have been placed under the
labor distribution scheme which is
being carried out by the federal
employment service in connection
with allotting surplus workmen
among war industries that need ad-
ditional men.

EAST MOLINE WILL
NOT CLOSE STORES

Beg your pardon, East Moline
stores will not close on Wednesday
afternoons during the summer as
was inferred in these columns q
few nights ago in an article telling
Of the decision of the Business
Mems association in Moline. The
article read, Business Mems assO-
citation Of Moline, East Moline and
Silvis, but a rather indignant East
Moline merchant claims that they
have nothing to do with this organi-
cation and have one Of their own.
Therefore the Wednesday after
noon closing ruling will not affect
East Moline stores since the East
Moline association has not consid-
cred mid-week closing.
