MACHINE TOOLS
TO BE KEPT HOME
Govt Plans to Stop Their
Export In Order to Help
Defense

washington, June 5. - CUp) =
The administration was az work TO-
day trying 10 eliminate two bottle
necks which are impeding President
Roosevelt's 5000 100000 defense
program - \ shortage Of machine
tools and scarcity Of men TO oper-
ate them.
Taking cognisance Of the fact that
almost one-thlrd Of this country'S
machine tools are being exported,
the government has imposed an
embargo on further shipments 70
foreign countries. without an ade-
quate supply Of such tools, produce
ton OF planes and motors, tanks,
artillery, automatic rifles and other
weapons cannot be expanded appre-
ciably.
National Youth administrator
Aubrey williams conferred with In
dustrial leaders today on methods
OF effectlng rapid expansion Of the
NYA work-training program.
Labor Groups Agreeable
Both the Congress Of Industrial
Organizations and the American
Federation Of Labor. pledged cooper
alton In the defense program. AFL,
president, william Green, told Pres
ldent Roosevelt that his organiza-
tlon has 100000 unemployed skilled
workers capable Of meeting de-
mands for expert tool makers
The Senate began considering o
house-approved bill for army In
Creases which carries an amendment
authorizing the President TO pro-
hiblt or curtail exports Of military
equipment, munitions, military tools
or materials necessary for their
manufacture or servicing.
The machine tool embargo ostens.
IDLY affects oil countries, including
the leading purchasers OF American
exports - Great Britain, France,
Japan and Soviet Russia. But II was
understood that the restrictions
might DO eased at q later time 10
far 10 the Allies are concerned, pro-
vlded such action does not create
q shortage for the United States.
Japan VIII BE Hit
Japan will DO particularly hard
hit because II depends on the United
States for 30 per cent OF It's machine
tool needs, II has made large pur-
ohases In Germany, but the war has
virtually eliminated that source.
williams revealed that he Is NOV
Ing Immediately TO shift On many
NYA workers Is possible Into me-
chanlcal projects. He emphasized
that the expansion would come In
projects employing young people be-
tween the ages OF 10 and "a who are
out OF school. Approximately 10000
people were being trained In me-
chanical trades by the NYA on May

FIREBUG SOUGHT IN ANCHORAGE

ANCHORAGE-Fire that gut ter the large warehouse of Me Valleys Exchange on Fourth ave nue early one morning was be- lieyed to be the work of Anchor ages firebug who apparently struck four times in the night during few weeks.
 Police and fire officials exam ined new evidence in their at temptS to run down a pryoman- fac believed at large in the city.
 Fire started in two places in the McNalley building at the same time. One baze near a side entrance was extinguished i'm mediately without damage.
 The main fire which virtually burned out the inside of the ware house started, officials said among cans of varnish and other inflam mable materials. The spot was about 70 feet from the large door to the warehouse in the alley & about 70 feet from the front of the Exchange. The possibility of spontaneous combustion was also advanced by officials.
 The apartments of Mrs. Ed ward McNalley are in the center of the building, midway between the front and rear doors. The fire started near the rear entrance to her apartment.
 Mrs. McNally told officials that friends visited her until midnight ard soon after that she retired She was aroused by her dog at 2 am and discovered the fire.
 The railroad and city depart ments responded and fought the fire for an hour before exting- uishing it. Nearly all the burned articles were those used in con- nection with the business Mrs McNalley conducts.
 Police gathered matches and other partially burned infamable objects found where the blaze originated to use for study in con lnection with their search for a l firebug.
 Other fires starting under sus- picious circumstances occurred at the Morrison hotel, Richmonds and in a small building adjoining the post office.
