Requirements for war housing al
ready clearly indicate" he said, that
such authorization would be used up
i'm three or four months without meet
ing ma jor portion of the entire need
for the next fiscal year"
Green told the committee that the
nation is today shifting its war effort
into high gear which will bring our
entire industrial machine to topmOst
speed.
Brake Must BE Released
"Housing shortages" he continued,
"are bound TO brake this speed. This
brake on war production is Il brake on
our advance toward victory. This
brake must be released now.
"Shels cannot be made with ma
chimes alone. War production cannot be
turned out without workers. Adequate
shelter for war workers is Il foremost
requirement to assure the necessary
supply of war workers and to assure
sustained quality and quantity of war
output.
"ProviSon of war housing is II labor
problem. Skilled and trained workers
are necessary 10 produce war materials.
The supply of this labor depends iii
very large measure on the housing
facilities which can be provided To ac-
conmodale workers brought to new
production ccntcrS.'
Output Already Delayed
Green testified that reports indicat-
ing that war production is delayed by
the lack of housing and The resulting
inability of war plants 10 secure need
ed workers have come from all parts
of the country.
These delays in war productions,
he declared, ARE not anticipated, but
real--they already exist today. They
are reported I'm Mobile and Huntsville,
Alabama Savanna, Georgia; Ilamp-
ION Roads area, Virginia; Beaumont
Port Arthur area, Texas; Bridgeport,

Ogden, Utah; Vancouver, Washington :;
Portland, Oregon, and several war pro-
duction areas of California.
although detailed data has not yet
been received from them, there are
indications that similar delays are ap-
pearing in at least y other war pro
duCtion crnterS."
Decent Shelter Held Economy
In ending his testimony, President
Green told the committee:
Nv" are giving great and expensive
care 10 the essential war production
tools and machinery to secure from
this machinery the best and the most

300 Jews Hide or Flee
To Escape Nazi Deportation

STOCKHOLM, Dec. 9.-Dis-

Norway said today that 800 Jews
had fed to Sweden or found hiding
places in the Norwegian provinces
to escape deportation to Poland.
1t was reported at the same time
that efforts aimed at an offer Of

objections to allowing Sweden to
take care of the few Jews still In
termed in Norway, many Of them
children or aged persons"
1t is estimated here that close

McCarranWiI| Resume
FiIibuster II Silver Bill
Is Called Up Again
Senate Recesses Until
Friday; Mexicon Claims
Measure Is Passed

Hy the Associated Press.
The Senate was in recess today
until Friday and Senator McCar-
ran, Democrat, of Nevada was pre-
pared to resume his filibuster at
that time if a move is-4Tnade to
take up bill permitting the Treas
ury to sell monetary silver to
industry.
: Senator Clark, Democrat, of Mis-
souri, won the point of his one-man
f1libuster yesterday when congress
sional action was completed on a
bill to apportion a s40,000,00o set
tlement of claims made by United
States citizens against Mexico. A
provision sponsored by Senator
Clark to allow review of certain
old claims adjudicated by a former
commission was restored in a con-
ference report adopted by both
chambers. 1t now goes to Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
Clerk Takes Over.
Senator McCarren consumed yes
terday's time with a slow reading
of House committee files of 1881
on hearings when the Reconstruct
ton Finance Corp. was under con-
sideration. 1t was so dry that few
Senators remained In the chamber
at any time and some one offered
to send Senator McCarran a CODY
Of "Boccaccio's Tales" to read. The
Nevadan was the only Senator in
the chamber at one time.
Finally Senator McCarran him
self became so tired of 1t that he
obtained unanimous consent for the
clerk to read in his stead while the
portly Senator, appearing fatigued
after nearly four hours on his feet,
gratefully sank into his chair. That
happened in the momentary alb
sence of Senator Maloney, Demo-
crat, Of Connecticut, who had tried
to halt the fllibuster several times.
Little Chance Of Passage.
The clerk was drearily reading
from the dusty record when agree
ment was reached on the recess.
The measure, by Senator Green,
Democrat, of Rhode Island, would
authorize the Treasury to sell un-
pledged silver for war production
purposes at so cents an ounce. SEN
ator McCarran has offered a substi-
tute which would make silver avail
able at a minimum price of I'LL
cents an ounce. the legal purchase
price of domestically mined silver.
An authoritative Senator said the
bill had no chance of passage in
the House even If the Senate ap-
proved 1t and that explained the
indifference Of the Senate toward
the filibuster.

To Release Available

Fy the Associated Press.

CHICAGO. Dec. 9-American
! farmers. rolling up their sleeves for
a record breaking production job
next year, may expect to have a
measure of help from Government
and industry, Eric A. Johnston,
president of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States, said
today.
Without being too optimistic. let
me say that the prospects for de-
crease in some of the farmers diffi-
culties are brighter than they were
a short time ago" Mr.. Johnston
| told the oath annual convention of
the American Farm Bureau Fedora
ton.
Put 1t this way" he said. "Ob-
stacles to farm production stand a
chance of being reduced. but you
will continue to work under grave
handicaps for the duration"
Draft System Stabilized.
Mr.. Johnston pointed out that the
selectlve service system was being
stabilized and said greater recogni-
tion should soon be given the farm
ers manpower problem Release
of available farm workers from the
Army on furlough to help relieve
the manpoWer shortage and produce
food for victory should have the i'm
mediate consideration Of Army and
selective service officials" he said.
The steel and other basic indus
tries are in better position to meet
wartime demands than they were a
few months ago. A wartime de-
mand of the first magnitude is that
of farmers for machinery and equip
ment. Whenever steel and other
materials become available, I be-
lieve farmers should be among the
first to have their needs met for
food-producing machinery and
equipment"
Any doubt that the rural women
Of America would be able to cope
with their stepped-up program OF
activities because OF manpower
shortage on the farms. has been
dispelled by reports of delegates at
the convention of the Associated
Women of the federation.
Tell Of Changes.
The delegates weren't boasling Of
what farm women were doing to aid
in the war effort--they simply told
of changes brought about on farms
since the federation's convention a
year ago.
They had praise for the city
women who have gone into defense
work but they also had reports on
how many farm youths had left
their homes for work in industry
and for the same reason-better pay.
Mrs. Elsie w. Mics, president of
the group, said she could not emu
merate the manifold activities OF
farm women. which, she added
proves that they are fighting on
the war front and the home front
in a most creditable manner"
Working in the fields isn't any
thing new for farm women, said
Mrs. C. r. Minor Of Pickering,
Ohio, whose farm, as were thou
sands of others, was depleted Of
male help. Il never ran tractor
before" she said. but I did 1t
during the corn-cutting this year.
My neighbor women helped their
husbands, too"

Mrs. Howard E, Caswell,
As the four watched a fire in the
house next door that night, he
asserted. some one suggested the
exchange. 1t was condoned by all
until December, l94l. when the
men got into a dispute over the
ownership Of a saw, he said.
Mrs. Jensen accused her husband
of being intimate with Caswell's
wife, Marion. and sought custody
Of her four children and permanent
alimony. The court reserved deci-
sion. It had previously allowed
temporary alimony of SIS a week
Mrs. Caswell has since been di.

that a great naval battle was being
fought.

beyond the Matanikau River have

Some northern fishing contests
already have been set aside for the

Tournament are going full blast,
With not such large fish as were
caught during the first 10 days of

Offshore fishing in Florida is ac-

There are uniformed men patroling
the spans, while Navy and Coast

waters But there are more boats
available on the keys than ever be-
fore, and fishing always will be
possible.

Fenlon, a brilliant star at George

tenure at Fredericksburg High
School before coming to Richmond
several years ago as freshman coach
Elevated to varsity backfield coach

ability and favorably impressed
those who closely watched his work
