this morning among employment of- ficials who state clarification is expected from Washington shortly. One spokesman revealed 90-day waiting period had been considered, and it was indicated this may be the next penalty if job changing does not subside to the extent an- ticipated.
 Mrs. Dewey said she would not say yet to what extent the local stabilization program would be af- fected by the change of rules, and that the lengthy directives sent here would have to be studied carefully before an interpretation would be made. All of the new considerations will be administered through the area labor management committee, which drew up the area plan, she said.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-08-16

the local officials knew since early last month that change in dra1t reaulations and in stabilization rules would be made and have been grad ually preparing for administration of the manpoyer tightening. The new rulings, however, need careful study and it will take time for the city to be re-organized into the new set-up, she added.
 AS means of obtaining quicker action in applying the latest orders, the state WING directors were called to a special meeting in Hartford to- day, and a clarification of the varl- ous directives sent to the local and otherWMC offices will be sought at that time, it was announced. The weekend announcements from Wash ington precipitated the special con- ference of the directors who Just last week held their regular instruc- tional meeting.
 Lines of fathers and other current draft eligibles formed at the USES this morning bringing forth an an nouncement that office hours Will be extended tonight until 8 o'clock to accommodate the scores of men who are expected to seek new essential jobs on the basis of the government rulings.
 Miss Edna Harmon, acting man. ager of the USES said the office IS prepared to place men in essential and critical jobs that will keep them from the draft, in accordance with procedure outlined in Washington. Ii necessary the office will remain open tomorrow night and later in the week, she said, with 8 schedule ot hours to be announced after study of today's business ismade.
 Many inquiries poured into the WING and USES offices and extra visits to draft board offices were the result of the weekend announce ments. Officials predicted, however, that 1t will be several days before the movement into new jobs really gets going in full swing because of the suddenness of the announcement and the considerations prospective QTaltcc WILL Wdiio cO 6A'S VI S-'o ing their job and draft status.
 The job stabilization tightening is expected to affect other areas more than the Waterbury locality which already is functioning under strict rules for job-changing. Mrs Dewey said the rules on immigrant workers will affect other sections Of the country more than Waterbury, which already is giving special con- sideration to employees coming from out cf town.
 Chief rule to "jolt" prospective job-changers is that which imposes a penalty o ia 60-day jobless period on workers who take jobs contrary to the stabilization regulations. In depreciation will be sought in Hart ford today, the area WING director indicated, on whether or not the 60- day penalty also applies to persons who merely quit their jobs in an- ticipation of taking another one after a prescribed wait.
 Up to the present time worker who was dissatisfied with his job or wanted another one but could not obtain a statement of availability was free to take another job after waiting 30 days. Whether or not he will still be able to follow such procedure was debatable question
