NAILS HAVE STRIPPED
N. AFRICA OF FOOD

Washington - An office of war
information official reported this
week that the Nazis stripped
French North Africa of every
thing they could get their hands
on" but that with British and
American help the country's food
production could be restored.
Milton S. Eisenhower, associate
director of Owl, said the program
of aid for North Africa was two
fold. The first need is to supply
food, clothing and other essential
consumer goods to the population,
left hungry and ragged" by Nazi
plundering. The second is to get
farm supplies to the country to
put its food production system
back into operation.
When he visited the country
recently, Eisenhower said in a
statement, it had been stripped
bare by the axis and food, cloth
ing and other commodities had
become so scarce that money was
practically worthless.

Agree On Drafting
OF Farm Workers
Four Point Program Is Out
lined By Wickard And
McNutt

Washington - Secretary of Ag-
riculture Claude R. Wickard and
War Manpower Commissioner
Paul V. McNutt agreed this week
on a four-point program for
draft deferment of essential farm
workers.
The agreement, designed to
halt the drafting Of skilled farm
workers, becomes effective i'm
mediately. Wickard has said that
continuation of the drafting
would endanger the nations food
program.
AS the first step in putting the
program into operation, Wickard
has instructed state and county
agricultural war boards to seek
oeferment of workers whom they
believe essential to the war pro-
gram.
Four Points Of Program
The four points of the program
are:
l. State and county war boards
will appeal from local draft
board refusals to defer a farm
worker when they believe an ap-
peal justified.
Z. Whenever local draft boards
find registrant is not producing
a sufficient number of agricul-
tural units to warrant placing
him in class &c or deferred
clasSifications- they will refer
the registrant to a war board and
allow 30 days for his placement
where he can produce the requir-
ed number of units.
3. Local draft boards will
classify as &c and sc any reg
istrant who has had agricultural
experience but who has left
the farm for other work. provid-
ed he returns to agriculture and
becomes regularly engaged in es-
sential farm work before receiv-
ing an induction order.
4. Local draft boards will not
remove from deferred c1assifi-
cations any farm worker who is
regularly engaged on, and neces-
sarY to, the farm program even
if failure to reclassify such work
ers means that military manpow-
er calls remain untitled.

Men Over 80 Lose Special
Draft Rating; To Be Ready

Washington - Men over 38
lost their special draft classifi-
cation by selective service direc-
tive this week.
SelectiVe service ordered local
boards to put no more 38-to-45-
year-old men in class All and to
transfer men now in that CLASH
fication into the regular classes
(such as IA, 3-R, 4-F, etc.)-but
not actually to draft them.
Several million men will be
affected by the order, a spokes-
man for the selective service
said.
The action has the effect Of es-
tablishing an order in which men
over 80 Wiuld be indicted eff and
when the armed forces determine
they can be used in the military
establishment" as the War Man
power Commission put it.
The men in All are to be re-
classified on the same basis as
younger men but with special
'H'' designations. Some will
thus be put in IA CID, 2-B CID
ga CID and similar classes. This
procedure, the Manpower Com
mission explained in a press re-
lease, means that men "who have
no cs .Se for deferment other
than age will be placed in class
Ia"
The "H)" designation denotes
merely a subdivision of the par
ticular draft class. Thus man
classified IA CID actually would
be in class IA although he would
not be liable to immediate in
duction like another man in
that class lacking the additional
(H) rating.

For Dependents

RegiStrantS whose wives have
become pregnant since December
7, 1941, are no longer entitled to
deferment on the grounds of de-
tendency, it was announced today
by the State Director of SelectiVe
Service. He stated that this re-
vised policy has been made nee
essary because Of present regula-
tons provide that no status which
was acquired on or after Decenl-
Der 8, 1871, may be considered
when deciding questions of de-
tendency.
The Director further announced
that all local cards in the State
have been directed to reopen and
reconsider for classification the
cases Of all registrants heretofore
deferred on the grounds Of de-
tendency because their wives
have become pregnant since Dec.
7, 1941.
The fact that a registrant is a
parent shall not be considered in
determining the class in which
he should be placed unless the
child was conceived prior to
December 8, 1941, the Director
said. He further stated that this
ruling applies both in considering
the classification of a registrant
and in determining his category.
