NATION SHORT OF WORKERS
FOR MUNlTioN PLANTS.
Government Now Has Charge Of Re-
cruitins of UnskiIIed Labor
for War Work.

washington, Aug. ga shortS ge of
100000 unskilled workers in war In
dustries is shown in incomplete reports
to the department of labors federal
employment service, which took over
the recruiting of this class of labor for
war industries employing a maximum
Iorce OF 100 or more persons. Final
reports it was announced. are ex-
pected TO show shortage of = 100000
workers.,
war industry was defined in the an
nouncement by the employment service
as the manufacture of products or
erection of structures directly or indi-
rectly supplied to some department
OF the government for use in connec-
ton with the war" Coal mining also
was classified as wholly war work"
While they will be protected from
recruiting by other industries, rail-
roads and farms must obtain their I'M
skilled labor by other means than
through the federal employment serv-
ice, the announcement said.
Through the operation of the system
of government recruiting, it is believed
unnecessary movement of labor from
community to community and from in
dustry to industry will be obviated
wasteful labor turnover be largely
eliminated and wages will be stabil
lied
The employment service, of which
Tnhn u Hoe
director general, will work through
state boards, which in turn will con-
troll labor through community boards.
Machinery of the service has been
modelled largely on the plan or organ
ization utilized in administering the
selective act.
AS now effective, government re-
(cruiting will apply only to unskilled
labor. Regulations are being made
whereby it will be possible to extend
the system to the recruiting of skilled
labor. All private agencies for the re-
cruiting of labor are prohibited.
The understanding, cooperation and
good will of the American people are
called on to aid in making the system
a success by Secretary Wilson.
Control of the nations telephone and
telegraph systems also is now in the
hands of the government.
All officers and employees of the
companies, Mr.. Burleson directed, will
continue in the performance of their
present duties on the same terms of
employment.

WARNS RAILROAD MEN NEEDS MILLION MEN
M'ADoo WANTS BEST WORK AND
NO STRIKES.
Calls on All Rail Employees to Do
Their Utmost and to Expose
SIackers.

Washington, Aug. Railway EN-
ployees were told by Director General
McAdoo, In announcing details of the
wage increase for more than 100000
snopmen, that the nation expected new
energy from the workers in return for
any increases and improvements In
conditions and that strikes and other
labor disturbances must be eliminated.
In reaching the conclusions upon
which this order is based" said Mr..
McAdoo, Il have been keenly conscious
not alone of the interests of the large
number of railway employees who are
greatly benefited thereby, but also of
my solemn duty to the American PEG.
pie to see to it that the trust they have
committed to me is discharged faith
fully with justice to them
mo right decision can be made
which considers only the demands and
interests of any class of men apart
from the paramount interest of the
public and the supreme necessity of
winning this war.
Now that the decision has been
made, the American people, whose SER
wants we all are, expect every rail-
road employee to devote himself with
new energy to his work, and by faith
full and efficient service to Justify the
large increase of pay and the improve
ment in working conditions hereby
granted. The American people have
right to expect this and they will be
content with nothing less.
ut is of the utmost Importance that
the output Of railroad shops shall be
greatly Increased. Unless this is done
the fighting power of our armies in
France and of our navies on the seas
will be seriously impaired.
1.-THE loyal and patriotic employees
can render powerful service to their
country by exposing any who may be-
come slackers in their work, by CO.
operating in the enforcement of dis
cipline and by increasing to the utmost
limit the output of locomotives and
cars so essential to the success of our
armies in the field. I count on the
patriotism of every true American en-
gagged in the railway service"
