A GROUP of still pictures from
Joan Crawford's latest movie

The reason for this unusual
procedure stems from Miss Craw-

seems that in one of the scenes in
He Kissed the Bride" which
co-stars Miss Crawford and Mel

unorthodox couture. Experience

Instances Of indiscrimination are
numerous. The trouble Is in Wash

refusal to issue simple instructions
ordering local draft boards to apply
the regulations uniformly. Donald
Nelson is under fire now, but in a
few weeks it will be Brig. Gen.
Hershey's efficiency that will be
questioned in the headlines.
The draft systems lack Of uniform
administration will be criticized for
disrupting the production machine
by allowing key employees and man.
ayers to be drafted without the en-
ployer being given adequate oppor-
tunity either to replace or to show
why he cannot replace the employees
in question.
This is not the way to help Ameri-
can industry meet the production
goals set by President Roosevelt
It's one way to help lose the war.
