arsenals and similar types OF wo-z
where mechanical skill is involved
are being considered
The War and Navy Departments
were instructed to sit tight" and
continue their present policy until
Mr.. McReynolds can figure out
some permanent arrangement to
handle large groups of men in the
same type of mechanical work.
Mr.. McReynolds explained that
there were hundreds of thousands
of men engaged in mechanical work
for the Army and Navy for whom
some uniform arrangement for de-
ferment would have to be worked
out as soon as it was determined
how many are Of draft age. The
two departments were told that
pending such an arrangement no
men in these jobs were to be re-
leased for induction into the armed
forces.
cracks Down on Agencies.
Explaining for the first time why
the President suddenly called halt
to the arrangement for Federal en-
ploye deferments that had been in
effect for less than two months. Mr.
McReynolds said the President
wanted to shock the departments
out of their complacency" and want
ed to be sure all Federal employe
cases were reviewed.
Apparently, he said, the President
had been informed that men were
getting deferments who should be
going into the Army.
ITS just question of tightening
up," he said, so people won't say
the Government service is a refuge
from going to war. AS a matter Of
fact, they are less stringent about
this in war plants than they are in
Government"
The high percentage of approvals.
Mr.. McReynolds said, is due to the
fact that the Government depart
ments are being very meticulous
in the requests they are making
now"
Bureau Chiefs Cancel Requests.
In some cases, he said, agency
chiefs are canceling deferments
without even seeking presidential
approval, although they are allowed
to present the cases to the White
House before canceling the defer
ments.
Mr.. McReynolds disclosed that he
had had number of calls about
individual cases before they were
formally submitted. Usually, he
said, they were cases involving
bright young men, whom the agen-
cy heads would like to retain. Mr..
McReynolds indicated that he had
suggested in most cases that the off,
cials seek bright young women"
Although number of the cases

While the order applied to men
who had passed their 38th birthday
officials believed it likely that local
draft boards would give considera-
ton to the cases of men approach

This is the second time in few
weeks that induction Of men in the

the passage of the teen age draft

Presidents aide said the bulk OF the
requests were for new deferments
growing out of the Redistribution
by local boards Of 4 number of men
previously deferred because of de-
pendency or for other causes.
Cases Handled Individually.
Mr.. McReynolds said he was using
all available material. including the
Civil Service Commission analysis of
necessary jobs, in making his de-
cisions. Each case. he said. is being
handled individually. although every
effort Is being made to keep the de-
cisions uniform. The age of the
man involved and the type of Job he
does are the two determining factors.
Mr.. McReynolds drew up the re-
port of the Cabinet committee which
laid down the original plan for de-
ferments OF Federal employees. He
described 1t as a hard boiled" re-
port which, If the agencies had
followed it. would have made the
present change OF plans unnecessary
That guide to deferments pro-
vided that they should be for six
months only, that they should be re-
quested only where the man was
doing a job that had to be done in
the interest of furtherinR the war
effort and that where the deferment
was granted in order to train a re-
placement, second deferment
would not be granted.
36 Years in Service.
I'VE have tried to tell them" he
said, that no matter how necessary
a man Is, If replacement can be
trained in six months or a year, it
has to be done now"
A career man with 36 years of
service, Mr.. McReynolds is one of
the best known administrators in
the Government He entered Fed
eral employ as clerk in the Post
Once Department in 1906: later
was made investigator and assistant
director OF the old Bureau of Eff
cheney, and then director of the
Classification Board. His next ap-
pointment was as assistant to the
director Of the Budget. and he then
served as administrative assistant
to the Governor of the Farm Credit
Administration and the Secretary of
the Treasury. He has been an ad-
ministrative assistant to the Presi-
dent since 1889.

Thirty fourth street. New York City,
and were signed by Robert Patter-
son, chairman.
Principles Forgotten.
The letter charged that Mr..
Willkie is trying to out-new-deal the
New Deal, that he had forgotten
the principles upon which the Re-
publican campaign OF 1910 was
waged.
Those principles have not
changed" the letter said. The in
ternal policy of the New Deal has
not changed. Nothing has changed
but Mr. Willkie
Mr.. Willkie has said that Com
munism is a vital new society Any
man who approves of totalitarian
-collectivist society-Nazi or Com
munist-does not represent us, our
principles. or our country.
While the radical element of the
New Deal is taking one step after
another to collectivize our country,
MI. Willkie flies around the world
and finds no weightier issue to op-
pose than the fact that some of
our consuls do not speak the native
language Of the countries in which
they represent us. He delivers
voluminous speeches on the remak-
ing OF the world before the war is
won. He assists the Communist in
spired attack on States rights. He
shouts his determination to bar any
one disagreeing with his new ideas
from participating in Republican
Party activities. 1t is obvious that
Mr.. Willkie is simply opposing the
New Deal for not being new-dealish
enough"
The letter said that Mr.. Willkie
had not once raised his voice in
defense of the free enterprise sys-
tenn.

supporters composed of both Repub-
licans and Democrats, wish to state
that this sort Of opposition does not

that / am not a candidate for thai
nomination. There are several
reasons for this decision.
Will Run Again.
There has never been a time
when the work of the United States
or of a Senator has been more inl-
poTtant or will have more effect on
the future of the United States. In
my opinion it would be serious
interference with that work to
undertake the year-long campaign
for the presidential nomination. No
matter what I might do or say on
national issues in the Senate. y
would be subject to the suspicion
that it WIS undertaken for reasons
Of personal political advancement.
I enjoy the legislative work in the
Senate. I have spent four years
learning it, and I wish to continue
it unhampered during the next two
years.
MY term in the Senate expires
III 1914, and it is my present in
tention to be a candidate in the
April 1914, primaries in Ohio for
the Republican senatorial nomina-
ton. While it would be legal for
me to run both for the Senate and
presidency it is hardly reasonable
to ask the Republicans of Ohio to
give me both Endorsements when
there will be available at the end
of his third term as outstanding
a Governor as John w. Bricker.
John Bricker Loyalty supported my
candidacy in 1910, both in the pri-
mary campaign and in the conven-
ton. I intend to do the same for
him in 1914 if he decides to run for
the presidency. In my opinion his
administration of the government
of Ohio has been notable among
all the States in the Union. He is
exceptionally qualified to be the Re-
publican candidate and the Presi-
dent, and he is likely to win both
the nomination and election.
Il hope that your committee will
see its way clear to support him
if he decides to be a candidate.
May I again say how greatly I
appreciate the support which you
have rendered to me-"
Senator Taft was a favorite son
candidate for the presidential NOM
ination in Ohio in 1886 and again
in 1910. In the latter year, Sena-
tor Taft was the runner-up in the
Republican national convention
which finally nominated Wendell l..

Equipment Coming Up

Connecticut shortly should take on the appearance of an armed arsenal, what with, the government defense program having reached the point where civilians are to be equipped with everything imag- inable to protect them from an invasion, whether it be by land or air. Among the more important items to be distributed very soon are gas-maSkS, an indispensable item in every household with the fear of gas attacks increasing step by step with fear of Nazi or Japanese invasion.
 Auxiliary fire engines will also be pro- vided coastal cities such as Waterbury so that the regular apparatus will be supple mented by those that can be manned by the auxiliary force being created and trained here. The first gas masks to be given out will go to defense workers, for the government views the situation in the light that if the plants stop turning out armament then it won't make much diff ference to the rest of us. So they get first call. Other civilian defense workers, such as air raid workers, first-aid crews, doc- tors, nurses, etc., will also be equipped with masks.
 In the meantime houSeholderS should be taking every precaution. Homes should be made ready for any and all emergen- cieS. This is more serious than a good many of us believe it to be and we should consider it a matter of life and death. When planes are sighted 100 miles away from us, all we can do is burroW and hope for the best. But if we start getting req dy long before the planes are sighted then we can feel more comfortable when that yellow alert is sounded, if it ever is. An adequate preparation is perhaps OUT best defense right now.

Iowa Looks Ahead

Iowa State University has advanced a plan to provide financial help for former Students who will return to studies after war service. Gifts of not more than $200 would be available to returning students in need of assistance, from a fund made up of voluntary contributions of 10 cents week by each student remaining on the campus.
 Iowa's plan or something like it. should be adopted by all universities and colleges, but need not be confined to schools. Industries, too, can create sim liar reserve funds, matching con- pany profit-dollars against employe con- tributions in some plan to prevent 1919- 20 conditions, when returning soldiers discovered their sacrifices in defense of democracy were not sufficient to guaran- tee jobs or even living. The time to plan is today-not after the war.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-03-13
Most With the Least

An American general once staked out for himself permanent place in diction- aries of quotations by observing that the way to win wars was "git thar fuStest with the moStest" Another way to look upon things during such trying times is do the moStest with the leastest." And many Americans are doing great and good things these days with very little not great in the sense, possibly, of building tanks, piloting dive bomberS or buying a $1,000-defense bond every pay day. But they are doing something.
 Mrs. w. A. Marsh of Dallas, Texas, started a drive to collect enough in pen nies, nickels and dimes to pay General Douglas MacArthur's income tax. She understood, and quite correctly, that he would be too busy to file that necessary return by March Is. The other day Mrs. Marsh got a $1.50 money order for her fund. Certainly wasn't enough to satisfy the tax man, or make her fund topheaVy. But it was signed, "The Boys of Camp Tyson, Tenn n"-$21-a-month lads who not only earn their $21, but probably need it themselves.
 They wrote: "We, the soldiers of Camp Tyson, applaud your efforts in raising fund for General MacArthur'S income tax. We hope our slight generosity will reinforce your fund. In doing this we hope that other camps of Uncle Sam's Army will help, for General MacArthur is a man that we all try our very best to follow, and some day some of us wish to be with him."
 Here are men already doing all that could be expected of them( serving in the armed forces in time of war, ready to give up their lives if necessary. Yet the spirit of America moves them to dig down among their not too numerous pen nies and dimes and come up with some thing for the man the JapS can't lick, the man who drives the Japs to hari-kari
 These boys are what some refer to as the little people. They don't do much social -butterflying on $21 month; they don't crash the gossip columns with accounts of their night club fighting, or make headlines because they refuse to work or sign contract, or demand big wages, profits or prices. Yes, they are the little people and it's the millions of people like them who keep plugging away at little things and win big wars. After all, they know what happens when the Nazi lash bites in to the backs of little people.

His house is nestled down among the poor whom he serves. There is not a blade of grass within squares of his doorstep. There is no a single tree to be found in that whole section of the city.
 Yet his paper on gardens was one of the most beautiful things this group of friends had ever listened to. One could see the flowers nod ding in the breeze as he read. One could catch their fragrance as he led his friends along the gravel pathways.
 But how could all this be? The reader of this paper was 8 sacrih- cial servant of the Lord, who had lived his life among the poor and had daily poured out the resources of his rich heart in their relief. But there was another part of him which lived far away from the squalor of the city = in. beautiful gardens behind high walls. Tn the midst of the city streets, this man who went from house to house armed with the grace of God and a word of good cheer, carried the vision of gardens with him and cherished them in his heart.
