lieves a great majority Of the people
of the Nation fully recognize this
obligation and stand ready to serve.
2. The committee is convinced
that sacrifice and unselfish service
by all will be required to achieve
success in the war effort.
3. The committee doubts that con-
version of the moral obligation to
serve in the war effort, into legal
obligation to serve, will of itself
solve the manpower situation. The
problems Of administering the man
power program, as outlined in part
II of this report, must be solved
and enactment Of law will not
solve them.
4. The committee has confidence
that the voluntary and cooperative
efforts Of the people, under strong
leadership on the part of Govern
ment, management and labor, will
provide the answer to this all-im-
portant war manpoWer problem.
Experiences in the months which
lie ahead may reveal that the execu-
tive branch of the Government re-
quires supplementary authority from
the Congress in order to carry for
ward the manpower program in an
effective manner. The committee
therefore will continue the study
requested by the chairman and, in
the light of accumulating expert
ences, will be prepared to make ap-
propriate recommendations from
time to time.

ministration, which makes all food
purchases for lend, has
awarded it first contract for de-
hydrated pork for shipment over
seas-11oo00 pounds to be processed

weeks.
In announcing the contract today,
ANA said at least 10 professors,

PART III.
Viewpoint Of the Committee With
Respect to National War
Service Legislation.
The chairman will recall that
he appeared before the Manage
ment-Labor Policy Committee on
August IA, 1912, and requested
that the committee proceed i'm
mediately to full consideration
of the fundamental questions of
policy that must be solved as
prerequisite to the preparation of
an appropriate national war
service law.
Accordingly, the committee
made arrangements whereby a
subcommittee composed of two
representatives of labor, two rep
resentatives of management and
q subcommittee chairman repre-
senting GovernmenD Immediately
undertook the discharged of this
obligation. The committee in
structed this subcommittee to
proceed jointly with a subcom-
mittee of the War Manpower
Commission which was already at
work on the same project.
The study has proceeded as re-
quested. To date, two progress
reports have been returned to the
full Management-Labor Policy
Committee. These reports re-
veal the fact that unanimous
agreement has been reached on
some of the matters of funda-
mental policy, discussions of
other points are not completed,
and still other major problems
have not yet been considered.
Discussions of the committee VI
to the present writing have served
to acquaint the committee with tn
of the manpower prob
lens, to crystalize the recommen
outlined in part II of thi
report, and to develop certain con
victions that appear to be pertinen
at this point. They are as follows

assume their full share of obliga-
ton in the manpower program. In
its efforts to discharge its RESPONSE
bilities the Manpower Commission is
confronted with four responsibilities,
the correction of which must fall
largely upon industrial and agricul-
tural management and labor, and
upon those not now in employment
or the armed forces, but who can
render service. These problems con-
Germ the need to-:
(a) Reduce the excessively high
rate of labor turnover in vital war
activities.
CD Eliminate the waste that
results from the needless shifting
OF large numebrs of workers from
one essential activity to another.
Co Remove the hesitancy of
workers in non-essential activi-
ties to transfer into essential
activities.
ca Accelerate the rate at
which those not presently en-
ployed but capable of performing
essential service are mobilized,
trained, and placed in employ
ment.
The committee recommends that
the public at large be fully informed
as to these problems with the at
tendant obligations. and that au-
thority of the War Manpower Com
mission be extended sufficiently to
assure the successful operation of
plans that can be put into effect
under the employment stabilization
and migration control policy re-
ferred to in part I of this report.
In summary Of the immediate re-
quirements, the committee respect
fully but urgently calls upon Gov
ernment, industry, agriculture and
labor for strong leadership, aggres-
sive action and maximum co-opera-
ton to bring about the following:
BY Government.
I. Centralized authority and
responsibility for determination

Landing Moneuvers

At New River, Bose
BY JAMES T. CARTER,

UNITED STATES MARINE BASE
New River, N. c., Nov. 10.-Behind
the brief news dispatches from the
Southwest Pacific saying the Ma
rines have seized some strategic isle
lie a story of courage and cold steel
! 1t is an epic of how the soldiers
OF the sea brave ocean waves in
tiny boats and plunge headlong
across unprotected beaches into
enemy ambushes to wrest a foothold
on hostile shores.
/ Come along, then, on leather
neck landing party and see what
happens when the United States
Marines go into action.
. I got just taste of what goes on
when, on a just-completed weeks
tour Of this great marine base and
training center, accompanied the
marines on landing party carried
out during training exercises ready
ing them for action in the worlds
arenas of war.
Work Taken Seriously.
Although the entire operation was
simulated, and there wasn't any
thing more dangerous than motion
picture company's camera waiting
to greet the party, the, invaders
went through it in astonishingly
realistic fashion.
These men knew the chances were
the next time they carried out such
an operation it would be for keeps
probably with machine-gun nests
waiting to spit death at them-as
they pitted this training received at
New River against the enemy on
some faraway shore.
Had there been Japs trying to
hold the beach or dunes beyond
from this particular landing party
or any other similarly trained unit
OF 1000 marines-the enemy would
have found themselves up against
9 tough proposition.
They'd have heard none of the
bloodthirsty yells credited to the
marines by the movies, for the
American sea dogs don't go in for
that outmoded echnique-they'r
too scientific and fast on their feet
to have to resort to such theatres.
4 Hand Fighting Stressed.
What the Japs would have found
and will find when the New River
marines join their fellows overseas
was as rough and tough a body of
men as they'd ever seen; men who,
even should their tanks, scout cars
and machine gun units be captured
by the enemy, keep right on fight
ing.
They'd have found, too, that even
If they were lucky enough to disarm
the charging marines down to their
bare hands, the Leathernecks still
could take care of themselves, to put
1t mildly.
In handto-hand combat, the ma
rines would have been able to
demonstrate all the tricks of jiu-
jitsu they'd learned in weeks OF
training at New River.
The marines know, too, how to
sneak up on the enemy, kick him
behind the knee and disarm him.
And once he's got his hands on an
automatic. marine QOeSn 1OOl
around with the orthodox method
OF taking aim while standing up
ringht with the weapon at arms
length. He shoots from crouch
ing, running position that makes
him poor target-low on the sky
line and moving instead of standing
still.
So strenuous is the hand o-hand
combat training here that in 'one
week of it as many as 80 marines
have ended up in sick bay.
So get set for plenty of trouble,
Hirohito. for we're training some
real fighters here at New River and
they're headed your way with stout
hearts and stout muscles.
