War Plant Jobs Defer Draft
OF 500, 900 Single Men
Wordsworth Would Halt Family Breokups
BY Proper Redistribution Of Monpower

replacement schedules, those al
ready approved represent only
drop in the bucket.
A draft spokesman was optimistic
about an increased volume of re-
quests for these schedules in the
next 60 days, basing his optimism
on the contention that employers
are anxious to go on the schedules
for fear of losing their key men.
Under replacement schedule, so
to 10 per cent Of the draft eligibles
in a plant would be released over
the first six-month period, the figure
would go up to 30 per cent in the
next six months and the remaining
20 per cent would probably be de-
ferred for the duration as ire
placeable.
Mr.. WadsWorth said he didn't be-
lieve employers generally would VOL
unteer to lose 30 per cent of their
personnel. Under the National
Service Act, he contended, en-
ployers would have to make re-
placements but they would also be
assured of permanent labor when
they got it.
Bride to Youth" Seen.
No longer, he indicated, would &C.
cupational deferments be offered as
sort of bride to attract young men
to jobs. That practice has been re-
ported in various sections of the
country.
The National Service Act, he
added, would also make it possible
to tap labor pools not reached
through using the draft as lever.
Mr. Wadsworth, incidentally, does
not like the idea of the armed
forces being used as sword of
Damocles to force men into essen
tial work.
Recently completed was a study
made by several Government de-
partments to see if there was
enough manpower in the country tc
supply the armed forces with men
and materials, maintain the civilian
/ economy and take care of lease LEND
obligations. The answer was yes
| enough manpoWer for the job-but
no one thought about who was tc
do which job. The problem of the
! fathers just wasn't discussed.
Mr.. WadsWorth is discussing it
as an indirect result of a direct law
to put every man and every woman
into war work.

Maryland Becomes
First State 10 Pass
lis Red Cross Quota
Baltimore Victory Dinner
Lifts Total S158,765
Over $l,9O1 900 Goal

Maryland today became the first
State in the United States to GO
over the top in the Red Cross War
Fund drive, William Carl Hunt
manager of the Eastern area Red
Cross, reported.
Mr. Hunt said Maryland exceeded
its goal of 1901 900 by S158, 765. He
said the State went over the top
today following a victory dinner
held last night by the Baltimore
Chapter at which ST ,663,0o was re-
ported. The chapters goal was ST.
$4,000.
Mr.. Hunt said this is the first time
in more than a decade that an East
ern State has been first to 20 over
the top in national Red Cross
drive.
This speaks exceedingly we'll for
Red Cross chapters and leadership
in the State of Maryland" he said
Usually it has been almost impos-
sible for Eastern States to raise
funds with the same speed as some
Far Western States, where low pop
ulation, largely centered in small
areas, has enabled them to reach
quotas more readily"
Mr.. Hunt said that several nearby
States are pressing near the top
He said Virginia, with a quota OF
S1,543,000, has raised II per cent oil
its goal. South Carolina, he said
has raised 81 per cent of its $685.
900 quota.
Mr.. Hunt said the Eastern area
includes the Is States south of New
York and east of the Mississippi
River. This area has a quota Of
S38,367,0 900. To date it has reported
S21 ,584 900, or Sc per cent of its goal

Restaurateur 10 Present
DAVIS Funds 10 Red Cross

A naturalized Greek restaurant
owner in Alexandria was so i'm
pressed with the work he saw done
by the Red Cross during the World
War that he is turning over an
entire days proceeds to the War
Fund campaign.
Nick Johnson, owner of the Cafe
Metropole at IT'S King street has
announced that two Red Cross VOL
unteers will man his cash register
on Monday, with instructions to
empty the till at the close of bust
ness and to give the money to the
War Fund committee.
Mr.. johnson said that he lived
in a Greek frontier town during the
last war and had plenty of oppor-
tunity to see what the Red Cross
workers were doing for both soldiers
and civilians.
He came to this country in 1920
and became citizen. Today he
expressed regret that he is too old
to fight for his adopted country.
Mr.. johnson is donating expenses
as we'll as profits, and expects to be
on hand to urge customers to say
keep the change"

With | AM. CLOSING
40-Poee Substitute Bill
Studied by Committee
In Maryland Senate

ANNAPOLIS, March 20.--A 40
page bill proposing amendments to
Maryland liquor laws, including a
Statewide l am. closing and par
tial Sunday closing, was submitted
to the Senate Judicial Proceedings
Committee yesterday by Deputy At
torney General Hall Hammond.
Mr.. Hammond turned the meas
ure over to the committee as sub
stitute for a measure rejected by the
committee. The rejected bill was
sent in by the Alcoholic Beverage

closing effective in Baltimore and
some other communities as we'll as a
provision to forbid sales of beer
wine or liquor before ! pm. on Sun
days.
In addition, Mr.. Hammond would
transfer appeals from rulings OF
local licensing boards to the courts,
and would eliminate the State Lii
cense Bureau in the Office of the

Other clauses would:
Abolish chain licenses held by
drug stores.
Reduce from 10 to three the num-
Der of protests necessary to compel
hearing on the renewal of license
Extend the ban against renewal of
license after conviction of viola
ton of State laws to include Federal
offenses as well.
Prohibit consumption of alcoholic
beverages on licensed premises after
legal hours, even though purchased
before closing time, with both buyer
and seller subject to fines. r..
Permit application for a new IL
cense one year after conviction
Persons whose licenses are revoked
now are permanently barred from
receiving new licenses.

Maryland War Board
Occupies Historic Inn

By tbs Associated Press.
Historic Rossborough Inn, meeting
place OF Colonial planters, again is
resounding with talk of farming.
Built in 1898 on what is now the
University of Maryland campus and
restored in 1899, the tavern has been
formally occupied by the State
Offices of the Maryland-U United
States Agriculture Department War
Board and Agriculture Conserva-
ton Committee.
Maryland's increasingly important
wartime role as a food producer
made the former offices in the uni
versity's agricultural building mad
eQuate, university officials said.

tuberculosis Tests
To Start Monday in
Alexandra Schools
Association Also Will
Check Children in
Day Gore Nurseries

The Alexandria tuberculosis AS
ISOLATION will start giving its annual
tuberculin tests to public school
children Monday in all the city
schools.
In addition to children of the first,
second, third, sixth, seventh grades
and high school freshmen and
juniors, the children in the day care
nursery schools will also receive
the tests.
The second step in the program
will take place the week of April
S, when portable X-ray machine
will he brought to the city. An
opportunity for chest X-rays at a
cost of only rs cents will be given
to all residents of the city, adults
as we'll as children.
Permission Slips Issued.
At that time the tuberculosis AS
ISOLATION will carry out its plan of
compulsory X-rays for high school
sophcmores and seniors. made at the
expense of the association.
Mrs. Doris Tompkins, executive
secretary Of the Tuberculosis Asso-
citation, said that teachers have
given permission slips to children to
have signed in order that they may
receive the tuberculin tests. The
tests cannot be made without pa
rental permission.
In the groups to be tested, only
those children who have never re-
ceived the test or who showed a
negative reaction last year will be
given the test, since it has been
proven that a child with a positive
reaction once will almost always re-
act that way.
Red Cross Aid Lauded.
Teachers have also been asked to
assist in educating parents to the
fact that positive tuberculin re-
action does not necessarily indicate
the presence of active tuberculosis.
1t is merely an indication that the
child has been exposed at some time
and should be watched.
Any parent whose child shows a
positive reaction will be notified and
urged to have an X-ray made, at
the same time receiving reinsurance
that the child is not necessarily i'll.
Mrs. Tompkins expressed the ap-
probation of the association to the
Red Cross for its cooperation in
the program. The Red Cross not
only is having nurses aides assist
the doctors who will give the tests,
but is putting on an educational
program among its volunteers as to
the value Of the annual X-rays
More than 500 volunteer Red Cross
workers have agreed to take ad-
vantage of the opportunity to be
| X-rayed.
