order authorizing draft boards to
start calling fathers.
The Nationwide readiustment of
draft calls was announced by Sc
lective service late today in a tele-
gram to all local boards notifying
them that adjustments in calls will
be made so that all States, so far
sS possible, will begin to deliver
fathers to fill calls at the same
time.
States and local boards which
appear to be "out of line" based on
figures furnished to national and
State headquarters, the telegram
stated, will receive adjustments of
their calls to bring them into line.
Must Evaluate Figures.
Such adjustments" the telegram
added, will be made without re-
gard to the possibility that some
States may temporarily furnish
more than their share of men TO
the armed forces.
Until national headquarters eval-
yates the figures furnished it by
States and allocates calls received
from the armed forces, the time
when fathers will be forwarded for
induction by any State or local
board cannot be accurately pre-
dicted."
This caused some observers to be-
lieve that the readjustment might
delay the call on fathers beyond Oc-
tober l, since some boards are
known to have some pools of child
less married men remaining while
others are 'at the bottom of the
barrel"

further.
Meanwhile, on the West Coast, a
House Military Affairs Subcommit-
tee, promising hearings on Capitol
Hill on the father draft, asked for
a full review OF selective service
quotas ana procedures.
Chairman Costello of the subcom-
.nittee, which has been holding hear
ings on the West Coast on the draft 8

statement last night declaring that

VINO Now Preparing
LIST Of Critical Jobs
For Draft Boards
BY MIRIAM GUTENBERG.

With the emphasis now on a
mans job rather than his family
ties, the War Manpower Commits
sion is working out methods OF
insuring that single men with
critical skills will not be drafted
by local boards anxious to avoid
calling fathers, it was learned
today.
A list of critical occupations, it
was understood, is being prepared
Boards will be advised to give "spe-
cial consideration" to men whose
Jobs appear on this list. regardless
of the fact they may have no
dependents.
1t will be the first such list to be
issued. Boards already have q list
of essential activities and 3 list Of
the Jobs regarded as essential. Key
men" In activities on the essential
list may be deferred, but men whose
jobs appear on the forthcoming list
of critical occupations will be as
near draftproof as VINO can make
them.
Replacement Lists Studied.
Replacement schedules also will
be studied, it was said. Officials ad-
mitted that in many plants replace
ments have not kept up with the
schedule, so that the schedules have
become withdrawal rather than re-
placement arrangements.
Plants on replacement schedules
are supposed to plan their hiring
and training so that production
schedules can be maintained while
men are being released to the draft.
In "a great number of industries"
1t was said, there have been losses
of skilled men to the draft without
their being replaced.
Manpower ofIicials said these
losses we're part of q larger prob
lem, involving the difficulties of re-
cruitment and widespread turnover.
The War Departments survey of
West Coast aircraft plants. it was
said, showed that turnover was par
TALLY to blame for interference with
production.
Manpower officials are counting on
the draft of fathers to drive them
into essential activities. When an
ofiicial was asked how fathers could
become "keymen" and therefore
eligible for deferment overnight, the
ofIicial responded that even a COM
mon laborer in foundry was con-
sidered to be holding an essential
key job.
Since 3-B was abolished as q pre-
ferred class for men with depend
ents who were also in essential ac-
tivities, regardless of whether or not
they were "keymen," no distinction
has been made between fathers in
essential and nonessential activities,
outside OF the nondeferrable list.
VINO now has choice of expand
Ing the nondeferrable list to take in
more fathers-who would be drafted
before fathers whose jobs do not
appear on the nondeferrable list-or
directing draft boards to give some
consideration to fathers who get
into essential activities.
A VINO official said that fathers
who set into essential activities
could probably get at least a six
month deferment," but draft boards
have received no instructions to that
effect. Their only order so far on
the drafting of fathers Is to take
them by order number after taking
fathers who have left agricultural
pursuits or are on the nondeferrable
list.
The official indicated, however,
that another directive to draft
boards underlining the need to con-
slider occupations first may be forth

GOOD NEICHBORS
And COMMON SENSE
By 8. II. McCANTS

Our daily papers throughout
the country bring us sad news of
the horrible and inhuman acts of
both so called intelligent and
unintelligent citizens everywhere.
We receive this unpleasant news
with hearts bowed down, and are
made to wonder, IL our civiliza-
ton as practiced in America, will
be able to answer in the affirma-
tive when asked by our Creator of
all mankind. Have you loved your
neighbor, and done by him, as
you would have him do by you?
Do you know there is a cause for
all good and bad deeds commit
ted by human beings?
often wonder how many of
we so called civilized Christians
refer to the real cause of our
good and evil conditions that ex-
list in our world today? We must
confess of truth. that we have
not kept that most important law,
given us by the worlds greatest
teacher, to love our neighbor as
ourselves, and to do unto others
as we would have them do unto
US. Failure on our part to obey
this most important command ever
given mankind, find us today
slaves to material wealth and
power. We can only blame the cap
itolistic system, ractice d
throughout the world for centurys
past. This system approved by
Church and State, has brought
about evils that today threatens
the very foundation of all civili-
cation. Our struggle for material
