|Ten-point Efficiency
Program Proposed
By ycurfew Sponsor
Fovors Oustine 'Porosites'
And Unfit Employees and
Compulsory Housing PIon

Whether curfew should or should
not ring-well, one of these nights
for Government girls remained un-
der the legislative scrutiny of Rep
resentative Wilson. Republican, of
Indiana, today as he broadened his
plan for the more efficient admin
istration Of Federal Offices.
The flrst-term Representative
from Indiana, whose 10 pm. curfew
proposal stirred up a tempest in
Federal circles, took occasion today,
among other things, to embrace
President Roosevelt's suggestion
that parasites" be run out OF town.
A parasite being. in Mr.. Wilson's
vocabulary, any one who contributes
nothing to the public welfare and
merely cutters up the community.
His 10 Points Are Listed.
Mr.. Wilson announced that his
| general plan embraced these points:
Il. Removal Of employees from
overstaffed departments.
%. Removal of inefficient en-
ployers and employees. Promotion
on merit, especially the admins
| traitors.
''3. Training of incoming employees
somewhere outside of Washington.
a. Doubling up of shifts.
IS. Removal of parasites from
Washington.
"6 Compulsory use Of elaborate
| living quarters not contributing to
the national defense.
~. Government seizure and use
of social clubs not contributing to
| national defense.
IS. Mass decentralization of nom
defense agencies.
"9. Utilization of all available
help in the District Of Columbia,
including retired men and women.
40. A substantial building pro-
gram"
Says Girls misunderstood"
AS for the potential curfew, that's
only part Of the plan to promote
efficiency. Mr.. Wilson explained. 1t
may or may not be necessary. he
said, and certainly Is aimed only at
the girls who arrive at the ONCE
half asleep and bedraggled
"A lot of girls seem to have misun-
derstood me-" he added. I'm not
trying to stop all their dates OF
recreation. If girl does not have
to work next day. she certainly
wouldn't be included in the curfew
And If her work is efficient, would
leave her out. would apply 1t only
to the girls who are not producing.
How such system could be
worked out is a matter that Mr.
Wilson apparently has not yet con-
sidered. There are so many other
phases to the problem Of wartime
efficiency, he pointed out.
Representative Wilson. by the way
does not employ in his ofiice any
bachelor" Government girl. His
clerical work is done by married
couple.
The Indianan said he wanted to
correct the impression that a ste
nographer in the office Of 1t. Gen
william Knudsen had to write a
letter three times before it was ac-
ceptable It was another ONCE in
the o. P. NJ. not the War Produc-
ton Board. Mr.. Wilson explained.

had been heavy.
Corregidor itself is a 4-mile- long
island. The fortifications there are
called Fort Mills. A few miles from
the Corregidor stronghold is Fort
Drum, a massive concrete fortifica-
ton resembling battleship even
to the extent of steel turrets and
cage mast. The fort was built on an
islet called Ell Fraile.
Somewhat farther away, to the

island and 10 miles or so to the
north is Fort Hughes on Caballo
Island. The guns of these fortifica-
tons range in caliber up to IL

TACOMA, Wash, Feb. 2.-In-
dependent welders were called to
picket duty today in their spread
ing walkout against busy Seattle
and Tacoma shipyards, but work
proceeded on ships vital to Amer
ica s war effort.
More than 1000 welders were be-
neved idle at the big Tacoma plant
of the Seattle Tacoma shipyard
and a smaller number at Seattle
The walkout, new outbreak Of an
old inter-union dispute. began Fri
day, over the dismissal of several
welders from the Tacoma yard be-
cause of non-payment OF dues to the
A. F. L. Boilermakers' Union.
The shipyard operates under an
A. F. L. contract which specifies
the dismissal of all men not in good
union standing, The welders have
protested that they are forced to
pay dues to a number of A. F. L.
unions as they move from one weld
ing job to another.
Shelly Knudsen, new executive
secretary of the Seattle local Of the
United Weldors and Burners Union,
said arrangements were made for
picketing several Seattle shipyards
today.
Weekend developments included ::
/. Thomas Grove, international
representative of the Boilermakers'
Union, emerged from a meeting of
$500 union members here late yes
terday with the declaration that
I'VE are getting offers by wire and
mail all the time from welders, -
and so to 300 new men were ready
to- step into the vacated Jobs. All
are coming here at their own ex-
pense. he added.
2. In Seattle, a meeting Of 500
welders voted unanimously to ask
Government operation of the ship
yards ito protect the welders and
insure production" Dave Basor re-
signed as their executive secretary
and James O'Brien as president of
the local, declaring they wished to
free welders Of any charges Of per-
sonal domination by them.
8. Paul r. Porter. chairman Of the
Ship Sterilization Committee Of the
War Production Board. telegraphed
Mr.. Basor that "a strike in the ship
yards while our Nation is at war and
American lives are at stake is in
tolerable."

BENEFIT PAYMENTS
FOR MONTH $992.764

Unemployment Compensation benefit
payments in August amounted to 1902,
764, which was paid to an average
weekly number of benefit recipients of
1862, Administrator Herschel c.
Atkinson has announced.
During August 1881 new claims
were filed as compared with 1851 in
July, a decrease of 80 per cent.
Administrator Atkinson attributed
the statewide drop in the number of
new claims filed to the reduction in the
number of unemployed as a result of
conversion of industry to war produc-
tion, to the steady demand for addi-
tional workers in the war plants, and
to draft depletion of the labor supply.
The average weekly benefit payment
for total unemployment amounted to
S12.52. This average payment was more
than p per cent greater than in
August, 1941. The average weekly bene-
fit payment for partial unemployment
in August was $3.50, 81 per cent great
er than August of 1911.
