 Will Line Up Manpower

JUNEAU, May 27 - With the mailing next month of occupa- tional questionnaires to the thou sands of residents in the Terri tory who are over military age, local boards in Alaska will speed to completion the Territory's in- ventory of manpower for war production, John L. Mccormick, Director of Selective Service for Alaska, announced today.
 These occupatiOnal question naires which will guide the War ManpoWer Commission, in coop eration with the Selective Serv- ice System, for the mobilization of workers for war industries al ready have been sent to the men who registered on February 16, 1942 in the third registration Right now, also, local boards are winding up a similar inventory of regiStrants of the first and sec ond registrations who have not been inducted into the armed services. And by the first part of June, the Director said, the men between 45 and 66 years of age, who registered on May 20 will be receiving their occupa- tional questionnaires
 The nation will have pressing need, by late autumn, for around l0,500,000 additional war work CTS, Director Mccormick pointed out. It Is from the men beyond the military age, he said, that the War Manpower Commission expects to obtain most of the male recruits for this work. How ever, he asserted, many war workers also will be obtained from classes deferred for phys ical defects as many men who are unfit for military service are

 The occupational question section is sent to the Bureau of the Census, Washington, D. C., naires are being sent to all Sel- ective Service regiStrants who have not been, or cannot be, in ducted into the armed forces, Di- rector. Mccormick pointed out, and are not 10 be confused with the regular Selective Service Questionnaire upon which classi fication for military service is based.
 Tt is especially important" he said, that registrants in military age groups who recieve an occu- pational questionnaire before they receive the regular question naire keep this distinction care fully in mind The two question naires are entirely separated in purpose. The occupational ques- tionnaire IS sent to a registrant of military age only because of the possibility that he may not qualify for military service. He then, however, will be available for civilian war effort. He must fill out and return both question naires.
 When the occupational ques- tionnaires are returned to local boards, the Director said, they are checked for completeness and accuracy, and then are sep arated into the several sections of which they are composed. One for the attention of it's Popula- tion Division which is tabulating this data for the Selective Serv- ice System, another section is for warded to the proper United States Employment Service of fee in the area in which the To- cal board has jurisdiction, The third section, which duplicates the data of the other two, is re- tained by the local board.

Buy Car Now,

The Office of Price Admins
tration soon will submit for pub
lie consideration an elaborate
plan for consumers to pay now
for automobiles, refrigerators,
pianos and automatic furnaces
to be delivered after the war, it
was learned recently.
OPA officials said the pro-
gram would drain off $6,000,0 0,000,-
900 annually in excess purchas-
ing power and at the same time
help many busines firms which
otherwise would fail to survive
another year of war.
The plan has been described
by merchandising experts as
"installment selling in reverse"
and would work something like
this:
Consumers would purchase"
any of the items exactly the way
they would normally, except that
they would receive a certificate
instead of merchandise. Pay
ment would be made either in
cash or on the installment plan.
The dealer would get 6 per
cent commission and the finance

company l per cent of a flat
fee of seven cents per collection.
The money would be deposited
with the United States Treasury
which would pay manufacturers
when the goods were delivered
after the war.
Officials explained that the
certificate would amount to O.
priority for the purchase when
civilian production resumes. In
that way, the tremendous accum-
ulated demands for durable
goods after the war would be
satisfied in an orderly, business
like manner.
Sale prices of certificates for
the various items would be set
at an arbitrary figures and would
have no bearing on the actual
price of the article.
1t would merely establish the
holders priority rating for the
purchase Of that particular item.
Consumers later would be per-
mitted to select their own brand.
The coupons would be non-inter-
est bearing but would entitle
owners to a "bonus" when they
become redeemable.
