W% Of D. {. Reserve,
ELIGIBLE for Active
Duty Now in Service
$500 in Washington
And Vicinity When
U. S. Entered War

Ninety per cent Of the Reserve Of
ficers OF the District OF Columbia
eligible for active duty. that is. those
with an active Reserve status. are
now on extended active duty with
the Regular Army.
Before the United States entered
the war. there were approximately
$500 Reserve officers in Washington
and vicinity. of whom / 900 were In
an inactive status. The inactive
status group OF officers consisted of
overage officers and those ofhcers
who. due 10 their civilian pursuits.
were unable TO attend the summer
camps or finish the required corre-
spondence school work. These Re
serve offcers are ineligible for pro-
motion or active duty training.
There is another small group Of
Reserve offieers here, approximately
$50, who have not been called TO
active duty. These officers. all serv-
ing In KEY Government positions,
were placed In the War Department
pool at the start of the war II was
felt they could serve the Govern
ment better by remaining in their
civilian capacities. The great ex-
pansion OF the Army, however, has
changed this, and they are grad
ually being called TO active duty.
About 30 OF them are now In uni
form.
With the speeding up OF the war
effort and the great need for addi-
tional officers, more officers in the
inactive Reserve can be expected TO
be called to active duty. Certain
physical defects will be waived, such
as fat feet. etc. for this group OF
officers would not be used In field
operations They could be very USE
full to the Government at this time,
especially those familiar with Army
paper work. More officers from this
group viii no doubt be placed on ac-
tive duty as time goes on.
OF the 2,5o0 Reserve officers of the
District who we're eligible for pro-
motion and active duty training.
there are probably 2,250 now on
active duty. The remaining $50
were turned down for active duty
because OF various physical ailments.
II the great demand for commits
stoned personnel continues. some OF
the minor physical disabilities OF
this group may be waived so that
the services Of these officers may be
utilized.

Showdown Ordered
On House Sponsor
For JobIess Aid Bill
Royburn Action Follows
Dodeins by Ways. Means.
Appropriations Groups
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Speaker Rayburn ordered an i'm
mediate showdown between two
House committees today on which
would sponsor q $500, 10000 fund
for compromising workers displaced
by wartime production, which some
claim would "federalize" similar
State programs.
With neither the Appropriations
nor Ways and Means Committee In
dicating q desire to take the initia-
tive, Speaker Rayburn said he had
asked Chairman Doughton to call
q meeting Of the latter group for
today.
II think they will meet and see
whether they can get together" Mr..
Rayburn said. This program will
be worth a lot more now than sew
eral weeks or months later"
Labeled a "Hot Potato"
Committeeman said they would
determine, probably by a vote,
whether they wanted to tackle the
prohlem-labeled by them as "a hot
potato"-or refuse to act and throw
the responsibility to the Appropria-
tons Committee and perhaps back
to Mr.. Rayburn. .
President Roosevelt asked for the
fund two weeks ago. He said that
State programs were inadequate for
thousands Of workers thrown out Of
jobs by factories changing over for
war production. He suggested that
the Federal Government make up
about 60 per cent Of q mans wages,
with q $24-a-week maximum for IS
weeks.
Cannon introduces Bill.
Before the Appropriations Com
mittee could act on the recommend
alton, State officials began to lobby
on the measure, and members post
poned any decision. Chairman Can
non shifted responsibility by intro
ducing the usual bill to authorize
the appropriation, which promptly
was referred to the Ways and Means
Committee.
Members Of that committee have
served notice that If they go into
the subject, there will be ample,
open hearings"

Hershey Advises Boards
To Defer Apprentices
by the Associated Press.

BY t06 AS8oCl8Eed FIeS8.
Brig. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, Sc
lective service director, advised local
draft boards yesterday to consider
deferment Of apprentices who had
served a year or more in trades es-
sential to war production.
"It is contrary to the policy and
purpose Of the selective service sys-
TEN to deplete the man power Of the
country engaged In the production
of the implements of war;" Gen.
Hershey said. Therefore, employ
ers should have no hesitancy in con-
tinutng existing bona flde appren-
ticeship programs or in establish
ing new ones"
