transferred WPA funds. Some o1 the airportS covered in the sum mary have additional fields oi auxiliary nature where WPA con- struction is also going on.
 For a year, since the national defense program began, WPA stead fly increased its airport program, MT. Hunter said. Tt employed more than three times as many men on such projects during the last week of June as year before. although total WPA employment had been sharply reduced.
 "In spite of the much lower aver age WPA employment planned for this fiscal year, a high level of en- ployment on airport construction will continue, and the percentage of WPA workers on such jobs no doubt will be even higher.
 'The 278 sites and additional auxiliary fields, all certified by the secretary of war or navy, include many of the 86O airport and land ing field sites on which WPA had

Deferred Registrants
 Asked To AidD Defense
Col. AverilI Urges Capable Men Not in Service to { Volunteer for Many Defense Duties

.. All selective service registrants in Connecticut who have been deferred from military service today were urged by Col. Ernest L. Averill, state director of selective service, to offer their full assistance to state and local civilian defense agencies.
 Many young men have been granted deferment because of their occupations, because they have de- pendentS or because they are not physically capable of undergoing service in the armed forces, the director said. Nevertheless, he add ed, they are qualified to perform some work in connection with caviltI ian defense activiteiS and should offer their services to existing agen- cies or those which are being or ganized.
 By granting certain men defer ment, Congress, when 1t adopted the selective training and service act of 1940, gave no indication that it in- tended to excuse these men from the obligation which rests upon every young man-that of helping his country in times of emergency, Director Averill declared. Each man is expected to do his share, in one
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-08-07

way or another, when a crisis threatens the national security he said.
 The director asserted:
 Many of our young men have entered the armed forces, leaving at home others who for one reason or another have had their military training deferred. Those who re- main owe it to those who have been called and owe 1t to their country to help in its defense when they are needed.
 "They can do their part by of fering their services in the inter- ests of civilian defense"
 He declared:
 "In the very near future almost every community will be engaged in civilian defense activities. Such activities, of course, cover a wide range and should include tasks for all young men who are deferred from military training for one req son or another"
 No young man should shirk his responsibility if it is humanly pos sible for him to take part in the increasing civilian defense activi' ties, Director Averill said.

already worked, expansion or fur.
 ther improvements having been re. quested to meet defense needs Many are new fields being con. Structed for the army and navy or their own reservations or, at theil rquest, on civilian sites of strategic importance"
 At number of fields in the &C., tive WPA program, the Civil Aero nautics Administration has been providing funds for various non- labor expenditures and in some in- stances specific work by contract. The two agencies, MT. Hunter ex- plained, will continue to cooperate under the new airport construction program recently announced by the CAA, which includes additional im- prcvements at many of the sites in the current WPA program.
 Mir. Hunter also announced that the secretary of war has continued for the new fiscal year his certifica- tion of airport sites already desig- mated as of military importance, thus giving them certain priorities in the operation of WPA projects as provided ill the. emergency re- lief appropriation acts for this and the past fiscal year.
 Blanket certification was extend ed by the secretary at the same time to all sites to be developed through WPA projects to Class 3 or Class 4 airports, as defined by the Civil Aeronautics Administration or capable of such development at reasonable expense at later date, MT. Hunter said.
 The sites now being developed are located in all states but Della ware, with concentrations in the corners of the country. Florida's active program is the largest, with 8,S60 workers engaged in $15 ,000 900 worth of construction at 31 loca- tions. The $8,386, ,O00 California pro- gram was employing 2,74O men on IT sites, while Maine had 2,148 en- gagged in $7,235, ,000 worth of work on 16 sites. Washington state had 6,416,000 in projects employing 2,224 at 12 sites.
 Other large WPA airport pro- grams were those of Texas, 15 sites and 3,507 workers; Alabama, 12 sites and 4,158 workers; and Massa- chusetts, 10 sites and 3,136 workers. In Illinois, 3,521 men were em- ployed, and in Louisiana, 2,251. WPA employed 8,283 at an air sta tion and various landing fields in Puerto Rico.
